Heart Attack Warning Signs You Might Be Missing: It Starts in Your Gut - AI Podcast

Story at-a-glance A specific gut microbiome pattern was found to help predict future heart attacks in coronary heart disease patients, offering a new tool beyond cholesterol and blood pressure monitoring Researchers identified 10 key bacterial strains tied to heart attack risk and created a scoring system that flags high-risk individuals before symptoms appear Patients with high-risk gut profiles showed more inflammation, insulin resistance, and higher levels of dangerous compounds like trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) and endotoxins Global research confirms gut bacteria influence heart disease through microbial metabolites like short-chain fatty acids, bile acids, and lipopolysaccharide-related immune responses Natural interventions like berberine, dietary shifts, and fecal transplants show promise in reshaping gut health and reducing cardiovascular risk
