It deeply saddens me that our community & country is in such pain and turmoil. In 2020, we are still witnessing racism and injustices against humanity, to no less extent than 40 years ago as demonstrated in the unconscionable death of Mr. Floyd. As we navigate through these trying times of injustice, riots, protests and a pandemic, I choose to remain optimistic that as one we will prevail and to be more vigilant of the importance of family, community and health. I pray for the health and well-being of our community and nation. -Dr. B

IF the speculations and the rumors are true it is not surprising that he succumbed to heart disease. He had many major risk factors : massive smoking, obesity and lack of exercise, tremendous amount of stress, high workload and lack of sleep. This also shows that even young people are not immune to heart disease if they don’t reduce or modify their risk factors - he is very young. But given his young age, I can not help think that genetics were at least half involved since despite his many risk factors he was still too young to have had such massive heart disease. He would’ve been a perfect candidate for my B100 home test kit, to have predicted and prevented his heart disease so it never got to the point it did. https://www.newsweek.com/kim-jong-un-reported-have-undergon

Good news: A new saliva test (created by Rutgers) for COVID-19 that was given emergency use authorization is coming out soon . The usual test requires a swab to be inserted in the nostril to the very back of your nose a far and uncomfortable reach. There is another swab test that is done lower in the nose or in the throat which is not as accurate as the swabs from the nasopharynx. With this new test, all you do is spit several times in a tube. This is much less invasive and ...requires almost no special equipment. When you spit into the cup, no healthcare personnel need be in close contact with you and therefore they are not at risk. To date, there is just one saliva test with this approval. The test was developed by Rutgers. When the saliva test becomes available and you plan to use it, please make sure that the test is the test developed by Rutgers until additional saliva tests from other sources are approved. See more

For those who think the Corona Virus is similar to influenza virus, it is not ! It is 20 times deadlier in susceptible patients! It is 10 times more contagious ! PLEASE protect yourself. ... -No handshakes, hugs or contact. -Avoid social gatherings. -Wash hands as often as possible (at least 20 seconds with warm water). **Protect others - do not go to your doctor’s office if you have any symptoms of fever, cough or shortness of breath.

What is cardiac arrest? Sudden cardiac arrest occurs suddenly and often without warning. It is triggered by an electrical malfunction in the heart that causes an irregular heartbeat (arrhythmia). With its pumping action disrupted, the heart cannot pump blood to the brain, lungs and other organs. Seconds later, a person loses consciousness and has no pulse. Death occurs within minutes if the victim does not receive treatment. #cardiacarrest #heartdisease #heartdieseaseawareness

I am taking a break between patients to let you know how disturbed I am to hear that the 38 year old founder of Pink Taco died from a very preventable heart attack. This young mans death and the deaths of many others are avoidable with a simple preventative check up.

It appears that "fake news" doesn't only apply to politics. There are also medical doctors addressing topics that may not necissarly be their area of expertise, resulting in misinformation. In my blog, I address the statements made that Miss Teen Universe, Lotte van der Zee, at the age of 20 and Félicité Tomlinson (younger sister of former "One Direction" star Louis Tomilson) at the age of 18, both died from a heart attack. https://www.berelianimd.com//false-news-miss-teen-universe #missteenuniverse #heartattack #falsenews #b100 #prevention

Like many of us, I grew up watching Beverly Hills 90210. He was also one of my favorite actors - I’m deeply saddened to hear the news. Now, at such a young age, could this have been prevented? Most probably YES - Even though I don’t know his medical history, the chances were that this could have likely been prevented.

This video does a great job at explaining the difference between the symptoms of coronary artery disease and a heart attack.

The purpose of AMERICAN HEART HEALTH MONTH is to raise awareness about heart disease and how people at home and in the community can prevent it. Heart disease still remains the #1 killer in the U.S. and around the world. This is a problem and it needs to change. "With the right diagnostics and prevention plan, no-one should have to die from a heart attack before the age of 100" - Dr. B the Heart Doc. #B100 #HeartHealth #Prevention

I love seeing our team so excited about protecting their heart health and taking action to prevent a heart attack. According to the AHA, 80% of heart disease and stroke events may be prevented by lifestyle changes and education. A coronary calcium scan uses some of the most advanced technology to check if you have any calcium buildup in your coronary arteries, which is a sign of coronary heart disease (CHD). A high score can mean that you have a higher chance of having a heart attack than someone with a low score. This also helps your physician determine the right treatment plan for you to lower your risk and prevent a heart attack. Like my favorite catchphrase says, "We can rebuild him. We have the technology." - The Six Million Dollar Man Sabrina Bitmayl

The SIGNS & SYMPTOMS of HEART DISEASE are not as obvious as you would think: Many individuals are NOT aware that they have some form of heart disease or any of the major conditions related to heart disease until something serious or life-threatening happens, such as a heart attack or stroke. That's why having regular checkups with your doctor is crucial for protecting your heart health and preventing a future heart attack or stroke. #heartattack #heartdisease #cardiology
