Sandy's experience with heart disease began in January 2013. he found himself on the typical medical conveyor belt of heart disease treatment. Over a five month period, and a multitude of tests, it was determined that he needed triple bypass surgery. He was told that his family history of heart disease had led him to this. He accepted this verdict, went through with the surgery, and spent a week in the hospital recovering. His daughter brought him home the day he was released, and they stopped at the pharmacy to pick up the required prescription drugs. That began a period of time where he was dealing with the numerous negative side effects from all the medications. He took advantage of the time that he had off, and learned all he could about this disease. Over time, with what he learned, he was able to reduce, and eventually eliminate the multitude of prescription drugs that often create as many problems as they solve. Questions for Sandy: What roll does family history play in heart disease? How do you feel maintaining a plant based diet? What is your opinion on bread? What type of exercises or activities do you do that has been beneficial to you?  What do you do to manage stress in your life? What is the one thing you could recommend to my listeners that they could start to apply today? My biggest problem is snacking at night. What is your favorite healthy snack? What book would you recommend had the biggest impact on you personally? What’s one thing going on in your life right now that you’re really excited about?

Questions Asked: Why are overeating, stress eating, and binge eating so prevalent in our culture today? What makes you, uniquely qualified to comment? Is ending overeating complicated?

Why Heart Attack Survivors? I want to help men heal both physically and emotionally from heart disease, heart failure or heart attack. We can help YOU or a man in your life deal with their recovery and attempts to find their way back to their life, and themselves. There are groups available through local hospitals, most are free, but only last 4 to 8 weeks. They information tend to be very generic. These groups are often lead by psychiatrists or someone from the hospital staff from that department. It has been found that group of this nature, their average approval rate from participants is roughly 17%. I wanted more! I could have gone to group sessions outside the hospital put found them to be to generalized. The costs ranged from $45 to $150 per week, you would have to be concerned about weather and traveling to the meetings and if you were out of town you would have to miss the meeting all together. Besides, you would be limited to just one night a week, plus bad coffee. I wanted something more specific! I wanted the person leading the group sessions to be a heart disease survivor, someone who understands and “Gets It!”, and not be a doctor or a psychiatrist. Don’t get me wrong, doctors are vital and they can treat your condition, but they have no idea what you are actually going through. A survivor has lived it and gets it. The average approval rate from participants for survivor driven group sessions is over 70%. Then it hit me! Wait a minute! Why not me? I can be that person, the survivor, the one who “Gets It.” Little did I know, I had just described myself. I have been in the IT industry for 30 years and when I actually broke it down to what it is I actually did, I have been in the business of teaching and supporting people. That said, what kind of group do I want to create? I wanted to create a group that is easily accessible, from anywhere. As I like to say, “anytime, anywhere and any place! You could be on vacation, on a business trip and not have to miss the sessions. The group will be available 24/7, worldwide, to all paid members. Every Saturday afternoon, I would jump online from 12:00 pm to 4:00 pm eastern, to participate in the discussions, answer questions and help keep the open forum discussions going. I want the group to be a community, to bring people together, to creating friendships, and bring in industry experts to answer some of our mo

Show Notes: What is your heart? Your heart is a muscle, not an organ. A normal resting heart rate for adult ranges from 60 to 100 beats a minute. Generally, a lower heart rate at rest implies more efficient heart function and better cardiovascular fitness. A well-trained athlete might have a normal resting heart rate closer to 40 beats a minute. If your heart isn’t beating at the right rate or rhythm, they will first try with medication and monitor your progress. The medication often used are called Beta Blockers (aka blood thinners) Most heart attacks and strokes occur when the blood supply to your heart muscle or brain is blocked. This usually starts with the buildup of fatty deposits, cholesterol, calcium and other substances in the inner lining of an artery. This buildup is called plaque. Plaque usually affects large and medium-sized arteries. Plaques can grow large enough to reduce the blood's flow through an artery. Where Plaque is most dangerous is when plaques ruptures and breaks free cause blood clots to form that can block blood flow to another part of the body. This is called an embolism. If a blood clot blocks a blood vessel that feeds the heart, it causes a heart attack. If a blood clot blocks a blood vessel that feeds the brain, it causes a stroke. Some people at high risk of heart attack, IF told by their physician will be told to take a low-dose aspirin (Baby Aspirin). Aspirin “thins” the blood and helps prevent blood clots from forming. So it some cases it does help
