Your Fingers Indicate Heart Attack Risk Years Before The Event

One of the problems with heart health is that once the problem appears, it takes a great deal of effort to reverse it. Sometimes undergoing surgery or taking dangerous drugs for a sustained period are the only options.

What if you could detect heart attack risk 10–20 years before any obvious symptoms appear?

This would give you plenty of time to make minor, positive changes to prevent the big bang.

A new, completely non-invasive test does just that. You don’t even have to have your blood or urine tested—all you have to do is look at your fingers.

According to Dr. Chris Renna, a physician at Lifespan Medicine, the EndoPat test predicts the risk of having a heart attack and determines the health of blood vessels, which play an important role in healthy cardio functioning.

People use this test as an indicator of their cardio health and whether they are doing enough to remain healthy in their later years.

Those undergoing the EndoPat test have sensors placed on each of their fingers. After the sensors are in place, a blood pressure cuff is used to stop the blood flow in one hand.

When the cuff is deflated, the sensors measure how the blood flow recovers.

In healthy patients, the blood flow is prevented by the inflation of the cuff, but when it is deflated, the blood flow spikes before returning to normal. Those that display signs of abnormal heart functioning will only recover to the point that the blood flow was at before the cuff was inflated and when it was stopped—there will be no spike.

An abnormal test result indicates that the patient is likely to experience heart problems later. The good news is that this test allows the chance to take preventative action.
