Beta-blockers offer no survival benefit for most heart attack patients with normal heart function, even though they're still widely prescribed Women face higher risks on beta-blockers, including nearly double the risk of death when given higher doses, while men show no measurable harm or benefit Side effects such as fatigue, dizziness, depression, and sexual dysfunction often burden patients without providing meaningful protection The real root of heart disease lies in damaged mitochondria, which are overwhelmed by linoleic acid (LA) from vegetable oils found in most processed foods You can protect your heart by reducing LA, eating the right kinds of carbohydrates, walking daily, getting safe sunlight, and tracking your HOMA-IR score
