Secret CAUSE of Heart Disease – EXPOSED!
When it comes to protecting your ticker and dodging deadly heart disease, you probably think you’re doing everything right.
You’re eating the “right” tasteless veggies… maintaining the “right” weight and blood pressure… heck, maybe you’re even exercising more!
In your doc’s eyes, you’re an ideal patient.
But as it turns out, that’s all for NOTHING!
According to a just-out study, there’s a horrible hidden factor that’s UPPING your risk of a devastating heart attack or stroke… and since it’s lurking in a strange, secret location, your doc’s got NO IDEA!
In fact, you’d be better off asking a dentist…
Because a killer CAUSE of heart disease is hiding IN YOUR MOUTH!
In the brand-new study, presented to the American College of Cardiology earlier this month, researchers reviewed the health records of more 300,000 American adults – ages 40 to 79 – and compared their findings against each participant’s tooth loss.
Some of these folks were edentulous (toothless), while others had each and every one of their chompers…
And compared to people without missing teeth, edentulous folks were 21 PERCENT more likely to develop heart disease!
For you, that could mean suffering a life-wrecking (or life-ending) heart attack or stroke…
And it’s important to note that these folks’ teeth weren’t lost to trauma. Their pearly whites weren’t kicked, punched, slammed, or knocked out in any way.
Instead, these chompers were lost to plain-and-simple BAD oral hygiene!

This Food Could Be Growing Deadly Tumors
For most folks, it was likely periodontitis (a form of gum disease marked by toothache, mouth ulcers, and inflamed gums) that did the job…
But don’t assume you’re in the clear because you’ve got a few chompers.
Participants who reported missing one to five (or more than six) teeth ALSO had a higher risk of heart disease!
See, experts believe that when you’ve got gum disease (marked by angry red, bleeding gums), the bacteria from your mouth travel throughout your body… infecting blood vessels, triggering inflammation and damage, and CAUSING risky blood clots…
And when that happens, your risk of a deadly heart attack or stroke SKYROCKETS.
Other scientists say that heart trouble could be a side effect of your body’s immune response (inflammation) setting off waves of damage throughout your body… and still more experts claim that gum disease and heart disease come from an unrelated third condition…
But here’s what’s certain.
Past studies into oral hygiene and overall health have linked tooth loss and gum disease with:
- Physical decline,
- Liver cancer,
- Reduced cognition, and
- Dementia.
So, there’s clearly SOMETHING WRONG!
To set things straight, take extra-good care of your teeth — and your ticker – by brushing twice per day.
Previous research shows that twice-daily brushing and regular flossing can help PREVENT bacteria related to gum disease from building up in your mouth… and if you stop that nasty bacteria at the source, your heart risk could PLUMMET!
