Liquid Death: Dr. Jeremy London's Guide to Avoiding Heart Disease Through Diet

Heart disease is one of the most common causes of death. A key component of preventive care against heart attack is diet. Doctor Jeremy London, a cardiothoracic surgeon, discussed which foods and drinks should be avoided.

Doctor Jeremy London is an experienced cardiothoracic surgeon who shares his knowledge via TikTok. In one of his videos, he discussed which products should be excluded from the diet to prevent heart strain.

One of the first products mentioned was alcohol. The doctor described it as "absolutely toxic to every cell in our body." This applies to both people who abuse alcohol and those who consume it only occasionally.

Doctor London explained that even moderate or occasional consumption is harmful.

The list also includes sweet drinks and non-alcoholic beers. Doctor London referred to them as "liquid death," advising against them due to their high sugar content and harmful substances, which are officially recognized as highly toxic in some countries.

Fast foods were the third item on the list. It is well known that regular consumption of processed foods leads to obesity, which in turn causes heart problems. Unfortunately, the bad news doesn’t stop there. Fast food contains a lot of salt, sugar, and trans fats, which "clog" veins and arteries. The doctor emphasized that eating fast food occasionally does not have serious consequences, but it should not form the basis of one's diet.

Milk, yoghurt, buttermilk, and kefir are healthy, low-calorie products rich in essential calcium. Many of us consume them daily. However, according to Doctor London, they do not always positively affect heart function.
