He has issued a warning 😬👇
Heart disease continues to be the leading cause of death in the United States, and while foods like red meat, saturated fat, and salty snacks are often blamed, one heart surgeon says another major threat may be quietly damaging people’s health every single day: refined carbohydrates.
According to recent data, heart disease remained the top cause of death in the US in 2024, responsible for more than 683,000 deaths. While genetics and physical activity both influence cardiovascular health, doctors continue stressing that diet plays a critical role in long-term heart function…
Veteran heart surgeon Dr. Philip Ovadia recently warned that refined carbohydrates may contribute heavily to chronic inflammation and plaque buildup inside arteries — two major factors linked to heart attacks.
“This food drives insulin resistance, triggers chronic inflammation, and is slowly destroying your heart,” Ovadia explained.
