[Kuyukut]

Hehehe ano kaya ang dapat ko pang iwasan bukod sa yosi.

para itigil mo na rin ang shabu masama sa kalusugan mo yan kahit na physically active ka.

[Dale Cardon]

very good post Dale.

kinakabahan tuloy ako

Im 42. lahat ng tests ko taon taon pasado din but


im 5'10 or 5' 11 but 230lbs overweight talaga ako ngayon.



abangan ko iba mo pang tips Dale.

nice to have you here again

utol mo nawiwili sa Pacland the past few months pero di ata nabisita recently.

you are overweight nga bro. Kung nag-yoyosi ka at umiinom and have a sedentary life, you are definitely a candidate.

Pero may mga kilala ako na overweight din, smoker and drinker pa pero hindi naman nagkakasakit sa puso and he is already 50yrs old. Kakainggit hehe.

May mga tao kasi na mahusay ang katawan sa paghandle ng mga injuries. Mapapansin mo na itong ganitong tao ay madaling gumaling ang mga sugat nila at walang blister na naiiwan. May mga tao naman na kaunting sugat ay inflammation agad at nag iiwan pa ng blister over the wound.

Kalingan mo patingin kung may plack deposits ka sa arteries at kung ano cholesterol levels mo. Do it bro. mas magastos pag tinamaan ka ng hindi inaasahan. Heart attack is a silent killer... maraming na heart attack ay walang signs or symptoms prior to the attack.

mas maganda patingin ka bro. Maliban sa yosi ang dapat iwasan mo pa ay yung pagkain ng mga food containing sugar and omega6. Para lang ba sure ball ka.

Pag nagpatingin, always get a second and third opinion. Mapapansin mo naman ang mga doctor na talagang nagpapaliwang ng sincerely.


Some doctors can't honestly tell us how bad it will be, and I don't know why they can't. Negosyo ba???

Ang ikina-iinis ko talaga is the total lack of effort made by my doctors to investigate why I ended up having a steel tube inside my body.

I don't smoke nor drink, I'm not even overweight, and have enough exercise 3x a week. I also walk 3km in the farm every saturday.

[Dale Cardon]

thanks a lot bro Dale, mas maganda nga dito yung post at ng mas marami makakita satin dito sa BS at specific rin yung topic sa puso...

Dapat malaman mo muna kung ano ba ang naging sanhi ng iyong pagiging candidate sa heart attack. Ito ba ay dahil sa hereditary, bad cholesterol, chronic inflammation, sedentary lifestyle, high blood pressure, insulin resistance or diabetes, etc, or combination of some or all of these?

By knowing this bro JOMs ay malalaman mo din how best to solve the immediate problem at hindi lang doctor ang nakaka-alam. Pag alam ng may katawan ay mas masigasig ang pasyente sa paghanap ng solusyon. Halos all of the above yung sakin hereditary, bad cholesterol, sedentary lifestyle, high blood pressure, diabetes wala pa naman pero nasa lahi rin, tapos smoker pa ko

sapol lahat yung sabi mo bro Dale tungkol sa mga doctor, hindi naman na explain sakin maige kung ano yung benepisyo ng angioplasty, bukod sa gusto ko rin sanang mag pa second opinion, may time constrain ako at pabalik nako dito sa north africa plus wala ring budget dun sa quote samin ng doctor, pinahahanda kami ng approx 350k for angiograph, ~2-3 arteries angioplasty, salamat na lang at hindi kasing mahal sa makati med, kundi hindi ko mapapagipunan ...

sa ngayon 6 yung iniinom kong gamot for maintenance, kasama na dun yung fish oil, change life style tinitignan ko na kung ano kinakain ko, hindi tulad dati na sinasabi ko sa sarili ko na may maintenance naman kaya okey lang, yung hilig ko sa CHIPS sama pala sa katawan, now munching on nuts and seeds, started to do some excersize kaso once a week pa lang, still need to do more, for this year planning to cut weight by 15kg (fr 95kg to 80kg), yung yosi ko naman bawas na rin ng 50% nitong February, will cut another 50% ngayon march and quit totally by April...

Dale, tulad ni kumander miron aabangan ko pa ibang tips mo bro at it could be a life saver, lalo na dun sa mga natutunan mo sa mga tsinito at merika, ako naman could only do research sa internet...

doing research sa angioplasty pero nothing conclusive, natakot kasi ako sa 1% mortality rate, bro Dale first hand experience mo gano ka safe yung procedure saka difference sayo after nung surgery?

bro JOM'S mas delikado yung hindi regular exercise. Mabibigla ang puso sa irregular na activity. Do it at least 3X a week.

Exercise bro is beneficial kasi the body produces HDL whenever you exercise. HDL controls the bad cholesterol na LDL B type.

[Dale Cardon]

gagawin ko pag share ng mga nalalaman ko ng maayos at hindi cluttered para mapaklinabangan natin...


Sa tate mga parekoy, ay marami din palang mga doctor na hindi nagpapaliwanag ng maigi sa dapat nilang ipaliwanag. Sa lupa ng mga instsik, yung doctor na nakausap ko naman ay detalyado mga sinasabi at hindi curative ang focus niya kundi pati na rin sa preventive.

Natutunan ko sa doctor sa florida na detalyado naman magpaliwanag, na kailangan talaga na malaman ng pasyente ang klase mg cholesterol at level nito sa katawan niya at kung gano na kakapal ang plaque sa arteries. Available pala ang mga exrtensive test na ito kahit dito sa Pinas. Kailangan lang daw talaga ay hingin mo sa mga doctor na iyon ang gusto mo na test para yung ang irekumenda nila sa Laboratory. These tests are the VAP or the LPP cholesterol test, and the plac test.

If a doctor says that you don't have good cholesterol levels, you should ask for additional extensive testing. Only then will you know what's really going on and whether or not cholesterol is a serious heart risk factor for you.

Tandaan mo pareng JOM'S na ang sinasabi nila na ang cholesterol daw ang kadalasang problema kaya meron heart disease is in fact most of the time not true. The body actually needs cholesterol in the digestive system. Nagiging masama lang ang cholesterol kapag ang nasa katawan mo ay yung bad cholesterol na LDL type B cholesterol, at ito ay nagiging serious problem lang kung malaki ang ratio nito kesa sa HDL cholesterol. Kaya nga kailangan mo ng extensive cholesterol test.

I am sure your doctor never told you that without blisters in the arteries, cholesterol would move freely throughout the body as nature intended. Yung cholesterol bro doesn't actually cause blocked arteries. Bwisit talaga mga doctor natin for some of the misleading information they give patients. Marahil hindi yun ang intention ng marami, siguro ay dahil sa katamaran.

Pero minsan ay hindi mo maiwasan mag-isip bakit di nila sinasabi??? Marami ang nagsasabi na kapag marami ang may sakit sa puso ay marami din ang gagawin na angiogram at angioplasty procedures, at minsan ay napupunta pa sa open heart surgery na mas mahal. Naging negosyo na AMPOTAH. Tignan mo naging rekumendasyun sayo pareng JOM'S;angiogram at angioplasty agad.

Yung recommendation nila na dapat daw low fat (cholesterol) and low salt diet ay isa pang mali dahil vague nga. Yang recommendation nilang yan ay siya pang naging dahilan ng maraming heart ailments at iba pang chronic diseases. Uulitin ko bro JOM'S na hindi masama ang cholesterol. Nagiging masama lang kung mas marami ang LDL type B kumpara sa HDL ang nasa katawan mo. At kung ganito ang sitwasyon mo, ay meron naman palang mga simpleng solosyun kesa mga gamot na nakasisira ng liver at ang pagkamahal-mahal na angiogram at angioplasty. Pag sinabi nga naman nila eh di walang malaking kita, hay.

Ang solusyon bro ay pagkain ng tamang foods at simpleng lifestyle change AGAD. I will explain the details of these later bro. Balikan muna natin yung naunang issue na kung hindi cholesterol ang cause ng heart diseases, eh ano ba talaga?


Bukas ulit mga bro. Hindi talaga ako pwede na tumagal ng nakaupo hehe; utos ng mga doctor na tunay na magagaling.

Exercise bro is beneficial kasi the body produces HDL whenever you exercise. HDL controls the bad cholesterol na LDL B type.

just got my annual physical exam result.

i had a slightly higher cholesterol than the limit by 0.6 (0-5.2 limit). LDL bad cholesterol by 0.6 also (0-3.36 limit) and the HDL good chlesterol lower by 0.1 (1.03-1.55 limit). doctor recommends for me to have a low fat diet, fruits and regular exercise.

have to reduce 14lbs to be on the ideal body weight for a 180cm person. stop smoking for a year but a heavy drinker.

my concern is the ECG result "incomplete right bundle branch block". i had this before when i was at my late 20s pero nawala naman. lumitaw na naman ngayon. pero ang sabi naman eh pakiramdaman ko lng daw sarili ko if i still need a "stress test". unang sabi lng eh makukuha pa daw sa regular exercise.

[JOM'S]

plano ko rin to increase my activity pero hinay hinay lang sa totoo lang last year I was so out of shape na mas malakas pang maglakad sakin yung isa kong boss na 84 years old...

sa ngayon tingin ko triple or x4 yung distance nalalakad ko na hindi naninikip yung dibdib ko...

napansin ko rin sa doctor ko yun ng after na hindi nya ko napaoo dun sa angiograph at angioplasty, parang nawalan ng gana at hindi clear yung instructions nya sa pag take ko nung mga pang maintenace na gamot, pati na rin yung lifestyle change na dapat kong gawin at ang insistance nya yung recommendation nya para dun sa procedure...

on my part kahit alam ko na yung basic na dapat gawin, loose weight at overweight ako, stop smoking, eat healthy at exercise, eto nag reresearch ako kung ano ba yung mga healthy foods for the heart...

bro dale dun sa omega 6 total ba yung avoidance? dati I have 2 eggs a day ngayon average ng 2 eggs per week, olive oil na lang gamit ko, occasional na lang yung kain ko ng red meat so fish, chicken and turkey yung meat source ko, kaso sa pagbabasa ko maganda daw sa heart health yung nuts, seeds, legumes at whole grains, kaso lang after nitong warning mo, na ito rin pala sources ng Omega 6, kasama na yung poultry at eggs

I was warned by the intsik doctor about irregular exercises bro. He asked me to do it regularly or 4x a week.

If eggs are your only source of omega 6 I can't see it as a problem. Wag mo na lang dagdagan by eating canned goods. I was told, Omega 6s are not really the culprit.... the problem is excess omega 6. Too much Omega-6 equals more heart attacks.

Just like you bro JOM'S, I love eggs and consume at least 2 a day. That has not changed even after the heart attack, but the wife sees to it that I eat only the pastured farm eggs. They are the traditional source of complete protein and nutrition since time immemorial.

You are probably thinking there is a lot of cholesterol in eggs. According to the florida doctor, despite the cholesterol, eating eggs has never been convincingly linked to heart disease.

Eggs are basically safe if you consume those that have a higher omega3 - omega6 ratio. Farm produced or the pastured fresh eggs have this.
Today's mass produced eggs have only about 35 mg of Omega-3 and about 700 mg of Omega-6. Very bad ratio.

Pasture eggs are those produced by hens that are allowed to wander about and eat what they want. These eggs have the distinct orange yolks and are not malansa. Eggs from pastured hens contain up to 20 times more healthy omega-3 fatty acids than those factory hens. They also have 10 percent less fat, 40 percent more vitamin A.

But don't limit your protein source to eggs, because you will be missing out of some nutrient not found in eggs, or you may be getting too much of something plentiful in eggs. Fish, particularly salmon is a superior source of omega 3 and other nutrients.

Nice to know you are taking care of yourself pareng lebrick

dinadahan dahan ko lang yung exercise bro Dale kasi baka mabigla ako, napansin ko lang na kahit once a week lang this month nag improve nakaagad resistensya ko, hopefully I can have the discipline at ako rin naman ang makikinabang

bro dale may nabasa nga rin ako na masama ang sobrang omega 6 pero kailangan din daw ng katawan natin ito at ideal ratio daw 1:1 between Omega 6 & Omega 3 intake, pero bro hindi authenticated yung ratio, other sources ko ng Omega 6 is yung nuts (cashews, almond, pistachios), seeds (squash) at poultry (skinned chicken at turkey), tingin mo kaya tama lang yun at hindi ako maover sa Omega 6....
yung sa itlog naman dito kasi yung labels either arabic or french, kaya hindi ko masigurado kung saan sya galing pero meron nga kong nakikita na orange yolks pero sa ngayon, linilimitahan ko yung eggs unlike before na 2/day sa breakfast palang yun at hindi pa kasama dun yung putahe at merienda nating puwedeng lagyan ng itlog...

sa fish naman, mas madami na intake ko ngayon as replacement ko sa red meat, pinipili ko lang yung mas mababa ang mercury content...
