Thankfully, it&#8217;s mostly good news \u2014 many diseases of the heart can be managed or even prevented with sustained metabolic health.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It starts with understanding the basics.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>The mechanisms of heart damage<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The mechanism of heart disease is strongly related to metabolic health, or, to be more accurate, the lack thereof.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The main incident for heart disease is damage to the blood vessel walls. Tight or ridged vessels are strongly correlated to poor metabolic health, which is why metabolic syndrome is considered a precursor to heart attacks, strokes, and other cardiac events.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are two factors that negatively affect our blood vessels: <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/ovadiahearthealth.com\/old-site\/2022\/10\/09\/metabolic-health-and-type-2-diabetes\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">blood sugar<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and physical inflammation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let\u2019s examine these more closely.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Blood sugar<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ovadiahearthealth.com\/old-site\/2022\/07\/31\/how-to-eat-metabolically-healthy-with-5-different-popular-diets\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Everything we eat<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is converted into sugar in the blood. There may be a difference in the rate sugar is released (such as with low-glycemic foods like berries), but all foods consumed will elevate your glucose in some fashion.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thankfully, this isn\u2019t a cause for alarm. A properly functioning metabolism and healthy diet support the body&#8217;s ability to clear excess sugar and reduce strain on the vessels.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is accomplished in several ways:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sugar can be immediately used for energy on the cellular level.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Glucose can be stored in short term cells such as glycogen in the liver or the muscles. The rest is kept in long-term storage with fat cells in the stomach.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can burn excess sugar during physical exertion.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/ovadiahearthealth.com\/old-site\/2022\/09\/04\/the-signs-of-an-unhealthy-heart\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">unhealthy metabolic system<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> cannot accomplish these tasks effectively. In context of <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/ovadiahearthealth.com\/old-site\/2022\/09\/18\/conflicts-of-interest-are-shaping-our-diet\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">the American diet<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, it&#8217;s likely you&#8217;re eating a large amount of sugar and processed carbohydrates. These high dietary levels may exceed the body&#8217;s ability to remove sugar from the blood, and your glucose levels may skyrocket over time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you can&#8217;t get sugar out of your bloodstream properly, your body will enter a state of insulin resistance. Cells can no longer swell to accommodate excess sugar and stop responding to insulin \u2014 leading to decreased elasticity, narrowed vessels, and impeded blood flow.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Inflammation<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The second mechanism of <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/ovadiahearthealth.com\/old-site\/2022\/10\/02\/5-steps-to-prevent-heart-disease\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">metabolic heart disease<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is inflammation. Sugar in the blood is the most common origin, but factors like smoking and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/ovadiahearthealth.com\/old-site\/2022\/09\/12\/how-managing-workplace-stress-hurts-your-heart\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">chronic stress<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> can also damage the blood vessel walls.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Inflammation refers to your body&#8217;s attempt to repair organ or tissue damage. To do this, the body swells to protect weakened areas and releases cholesterol to repair damaged structures \u2014 including problems caused by excess blood sugar.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The problem here is not the inflammation itself. Rather, it&#8217;s the issue of remaining inflamed for long periods of time. Constant swelling keeps your body in a state of alert, and waxy cholesterol deposits can restrict your blood flow over time. This will damage your vessel walls and leave you more susceptible to heart disease in the future.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a side note, getting rid of cholesterol completely is neither possible nor advisable. When we <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/ovadiahearthealth.com\/old-site\/2022\/10\/23\/medications-arent-the-only-way-to-treat-chronic-disease\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">lower cholesterol with medication<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, all we do is lessen our reparative response \u2014 not resolve the root of the issue. As a result, even people on cholesterol medication remain in high risk brackets for heart disease.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can see the cycle here as plain as day:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Excess sugar in the blood causes damage to the blood vessel walls<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This results in higher levels of inflammation, also damaging vessels<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The body becomes insulin resistant and produces excess cholesterol<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your risks for heart disease grow exponentially and may worsen over time<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A heart attack or cardiac event may damage your heart and increase future risks<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Blood vessel walls are continuously damaged while plaque builds up in arteries and veins. When blood can no longer reach your heart effectively, you may experience a heart attack resulting in tissue death or complete organ failure \u2014 either of which will be extremely life-threatening.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>How to improve metabolic health for heart disease<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Heart disease doesn&#8217;t happen overnight. The event itself may feel quick in the moment, but in reality, it takes quite a lot of time for damages to accrue.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, it&#8217;s by no means impossible to prevent or repair heart damage over time \u2014 even after a cardiac event.<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The first step is to stop self-inflicting damage to your heart. This means lowering your sugar intake, finding <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/ovadiahearthealth.com\/old-site\/2022\/10\/30\/you-cannot-exercise-your-way-to-weight-loss\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">outlets for exercise<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and choosing whole, real foods that slow the conversion of sugar in your blood.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Next, you\u2019ll want to make some non-dietary lifestyle changes. Focus on getting more sleep, controlling workplace stress, and quitting your smoking habit altogether. All of this will help you better manage chronic inflammation.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Finally, you may want to work with a metabolic health coach to interpret lab results, suggest blood panels, and keep an eye on your progress over time.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ovadiahearthealth.com\/old-site\/2022\/09\/25\/why-does-metabolic-health-matter\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Improving your metabolic health<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> lets you optimize the functions you already have.
