#RFKJr has gone to lengths to appear hale, skiing w/a pro snowboarder & w/an Olympic gold medalist….A camera crew was at his side while he lifted weights, shirtless, at an outdoor gym in Venice Beach.🙄
For decades, #Kennedy suffered from #AtrialFibrillation, a heartbeat abnormality that increases the risk of #stroke or #HeartFailure. He has been hospitalized ≥4X, although in an interview… this winter, he said he had not had an incident in >a decade & believed the condition had “disappeared.”
"In 2019 alone, more than half a million people died due to a #stroke linked to high and low temperatures, a new study found. With the world getting warmer due to human-made #ClimateChange, that number is expected to rise.
As the planet gets warmer, the study said, the burden of strokes due to high temperature “has increased rapidly” and that number will grow “sharply” in the future."
A study of more than 200 people undergoing surgery found that nearly 60% had microplastics or even smaller nanoplastics in a main artery. Those who did were 4.5 times more likely to experience a heart attack, a stroke or death in the approximately 34 months after the surgery than were those whose arteries were plastic-free.
