    My father died of a heart attack in 1963 - we've come a long way since then in preventing heart attacks and saving lives with bi-pass surgery etc. Thanks for a great lens and welcome to the Activists Sound Off Group!

    So glad you got took this lens and brought it forward. the information is outstanding and the videos are great.

    We can do a lot to keep our cardiovascular system healthy, but with some people, genetics plays the stronger role and just wins out. I'm an example. My diet is great, I'm a ballet dancer, etc. But i was never been able to get my cholesterol down below 250. Luckily, the PXP I take for my migraines, brought everything else into balance, including my cholesterol.

    My Dad, on the other hand, ate meat and potatoes his entire life and I mean Crisco! Didn't get much exercise because of a plane accident while in the Air Force. His numbers were great, lived to be 91. When people ask me what he died of i say - old age :)

    We need to take as much control as possible and take care of our bodies, and believe me, I do, but genetics are hard to combat sometimes.

    Thanks this lens, and bringing this to the front line 5*
