Doctor Krulev warned that one of these signs is the rapid graying of hair without obvious genetics and against the background of the development of atherosclerosis. This pathology is caused by an increase in “bad” cholesterol.
The expert explained that atherosclerosis “attracts” premature pathological aging, which also affects hair pigmentation. This was confirmed by a study by Spanish scientists involving 545 men aged 42 to 64 years. In nearly all participants, atherosclerosis symptoms “were proportional to the severity of gray hair.”
Cardiologist Korenevich noted that a sharp increase in cholesterol can cause sudden death due to heart attack or stroke. And if a cholesterol plaque ruptures, a heart attack or stroke can occur almost immediately.
Moreover, such dangerous symptoms can be detected at a doctor’s appointment.
“When the plaque bursts, a heart attack occurs. This happens almost instantly. This is how a heart attack or stroke begins. For 99 percent of ICU patients, a heart attack is a completely unexpected event, but for doctors it is not much of a surprise,” Korenevich said.
