Countless studies have been done on risk factors and what will eventually lead to heart attack, but there hasn’t been a good model for prediction.

Today’s article will examine the results of a new study that has doctors and researchers very excited.

A study out of Spectrum Heath in Michigan, and led by Dr. Ryan Madder, recently uncovered an actual predictor of heart attack, leading researchers to be very excited about the potential impact of the findings.

The exciting part of the study is that this plaque can be tested for in simple screenings, and may be the best predictor to date of an immediately impending heart attack. Preventing this plaque from building up in the first place is almost a sure thing in preventing heart attack.

The best way I know to prevent cholesterol-plaque buildup is following the step-by-step plan I used to completely clear the arteries in my heart – even after my doctor told me I was doomed to have a heart attack. Learn the exact steps I used here…
