| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Dr. Berg's Healthy Keto and Interminute Fasting Podcast, where Dr. |
| 0:07.7 | Berg takes you on the journey for the truth about getting healthy and losing healthy weight. |
| 0:22.5 | If you had the pick between a stroke or a heart attack, which one would you rather have? |
| 0:28.8 | Of course, you wouldn't want either, but if you had the pick one, which one would you rather have? |
| 0:34.8 | Go ahead and tell me in the comments down below. I'm very curious. A stroke is basically either a clot or |
| 0:41.8 | plucking that has dislodged in somewhere in your body, either in the crotted arteries through here, or |
| 0:47.8 | the heart, and it's gone up into your brain, and it's stopping blood flow. Now, with a heart attack, |
| 0:53.8 | we have a clot or a plucking that's stopping blood flow in the heart muscle. |
| 0:58.8 | So, in reality, a stroke and a heart attack is really the exact same thing, but in different locations in the body. |
| 1:05.8 | Now, for me, I would much rather have a heart attack than a stroke, because having half of your body being paralyzed, |
| 1:13.8 | and then having your spouse drag you around, clean you, bathe you, take you everywhere. |
| 1:20.8 | Oh, my gosh, that would be such a burden on your spouse. And to be trapped in a body where half of your body is |
| 1:25.8 | non-functional, would be literally torture. Now, with a heart attack, which has a 12% mortality versus a |
| 1:34.8 | stroke, which has a 28% mortality, we have become really good at keeping people alive. |
| 1:41.8 | So, when people have heart attack, there's really great emergency care that can recover a person. |
| 1:47.8 | But the number one cause of death is a heart attack. And with a stroke, that's the fifth cause of death. |
| 1:55.8 | Now, the uses acronym for a stroke. So, F would be your face is drooping on one side, you're losing muscle control, |
| 2:03.8 | and A would stand for your arm on one side being weak or even paralyzed. |
| 2:08.8 | And then we have S for speech difficulty, you're slurring, you can't really articulate as well. |
| 2:15.8 | And then you have T for time, there's no time for waste. If someone has a stroke, you want to call 911, |
| 2:21.8 | get them into the hospital so they can quickly give you a certain medication to dissolve the clot. |
| 2:28.8 | Usually you have up to six hours, but the sooner, the better. Now, what's really bizarre about a heart attack is |
