00:00If the heart could speak, it wouldn't shout, it would whisper.
00:04And that's precisely why so many people don't realize when something starts to go wrong.
00:10Because danger doesn't arrive with an alarm, it doesn't knock on the door, it doesn't give advance warning.
00:15It infiltrates little by little, changing almost invisible details in the body.
00:21It leaves subtle clues that go unnoticed in the mirror, in the way you walk, in your breathing.
00:27And while the routine continues seemingly normally, the internal clock keeps ticking.
00:34Today you will understand why the body always tries to warn you before the heart fails.
00:40And why ignoring these signs can be very costly.
00:44Cardiovascular diseases remain the leading cause of death in Brazil and worldwide.
00:50These are alarming numbers, but curiously, they don't have the emotional impact they should.
00:58Perhaps because the heart is seen as something abstract, distant, until it fails abruptly.
01:05What few people know is that, most of the time, the collapse is not sudden.
01:10It is preceded by a silent accumulation of signs, marks, and sensations.
01:16which the body displays as a final plea for attention.
01:20And that's exactly what we're going to talk about now.
01:23There is a common misconception that heart problems
01:27They manifest only as intense chest pain or sudden falls.
01:32The truth is far more unsettling.
01:35The heart communicates with the rest of the body all the time.
01:38And when he begins to suffer, other regions take on the role of messengers.
01:43The skin changes, the eyes tell stories, the legs reveal what the arteries hide.
01:50Small, seemingly unconnected details form a dangerous puzzle when viewed together.
01:56together.
01:57Imagine observing someone and noticing a small diagonal groove in their earlobe.
02:03Something that seems like just a trace of time, a genetic detail, or a banal sign of aging.
02:10For decades, this was ignored.
02:13Until doctors began to notice a disturbing pattern.
02:17Many patients with serious problems in the arteries of the heart presented with exactly...
02:22that same trait.
02:24It was no coincidence.
02:26Studies have shown that changes in the blood vessels responsible for carrying oxygen
02:32and nutrients can be reflected both in vital arteries and in seemingly insignificant structures.
02:39It has nothing to do with the heart.
02:42Not everyone who exhibits this symptom has heart disease, but the frequency with
02:47The fact that it appears in younger people with significant obstructions has raised an alert that
02:52It can no longer be ignored.
02:54The body also reveals circulatory problems in even more visible ways.
02:59The legs, for example, require a constant blood flow to maintain muscles, skin, and even...
03:07healthy fur.
03:08When arteries begin to narrow due to the buildup of fatty plaques, the blood
03:14It is difficult to get there.
03:16So what happens first?
03:17The hair disappears.
03:19The skin becomes smoother, cooler, and excessively shiny.
03:23Fingernails grow more slowly.
03:25It's not about aesthetics.
03:27It's physiology.
03:28It is the body prioritizing vital organs while abandoning what it considers secondary.
03:34survive.
03:34The problem is that if there is a blockage in the arteries of the legs, it is very likely that
03:41the same process is happening in other regions, including in the arteries that supply
03:47the heart.
03:48The eyes, often called the windows to the soul, also become windows to circulation.
03:57Small yellowish patches on the eyelids, often seen only as a cosmetic nuisance,
04:04These could be cholesterol deposits that have accumulated over the years.
04:08They grow slowly.
04:11They don't hurt.
04:12They don't get inflamed.
04:13And that's why they are ignored.
04:15But its presence significantly increases the risk of serious events such as heart attack and stroke.
04:21What's most intriguing is that not everyone with high cholesterol develops these marks.
04:27which makes its appearance even more relevant as a metabolic and cardiovascular warning sign.
04:34There are also more subtle, almost poetic changes, if they weren't so dangerous.
04:39A whitish or grayish ring that appears around the iris, slightly altering its color.
04:45of the eyes.
04:46In older people, this may simply be a reflection of the passage of time.
04:50But when it appears too early, it may indicate high levels of fat circulating in the blood.
04:57freely settling where it shouldn't.
05:00It doesn't affect vision, it doesn't cause pain, but it says a lot about what's going on internally.
05:06At other times, the body abandons all subtlety.
05:09The skin takes on a bluish or purplish tone, even without being cold.
05:16It is oxygen-poor blood circulating slowly, unable to perform its basic function.
05:22This can happen on the lips, fingertips, and feet.
05:26Could this be a sign of lung problems?
05:28Yes, but it can also indicate that the heart is not pumping enough blood.
05:34to meet the body's needs.
05:36In some cases, this discoloration is accompanied by wounds that simply do not heal.
05:45Small lesions that persist for weeks or months, whether painful or not, reveal a circulatory problem.
05:51compromised to the point of preventing tissue regeneration.
05:56And then, there's a sign that almost everyone has seen or felt at some point, but that
06:02It is rarely taken seriously.
06:04Swelling in the legs, ankles, and feet.
06:07At the end of the day, shoes pinch, socks leave deep marks.
06:12The skin appears tighter.
06:15When you press on it with your finger, a depression forms that takes a while to disappear.
06:20Gravity contributes, but the real problem lies in the heart's difficulty in coping with...
06:27The volume of blood and fluids, allowing them to accumulate where they shouldn't.
06:33While lying down and elevating your legs relieves the swelling, your body is, once again, begging for attention.
06:41These are the signs that can be seen.
06:44But there are also those who feel something and who are often even more ignored.
06:48Shortness of breath is one of the most treacherous things.
06:51Not the kind that arises after intense effort, but the kind that appears in simple activities, that
06:57They used to be done without difficulty.
07:00Climbing a few steps, walking short distances, carrying light bags.
07:05Fatigue sets in far too early, disproportionate to the effort.
07:09The body is receiving less oxygen than it needs, and the heart struggles to compensate.
07:15A persistent cough, especially when accompanied by clear or slightly pinkish discharge,
07:21It could seem like something pulmonary, an allergy, or a mild infection.
07:26But in some cases it is the result of fluid accumulating in the lungs, because the heart does not
07:32It is able to pump blood properly.
07:35Ignoring this signal is to allow the overload to proceed silently.
07:41Sleep also ceases to be a refuge.
07:44The person starts needing more pillows to breathe better.
07:49Lying down causes discomfort, a feeling of suffocation.
07:52In more serious situations, sleep is abruptly interrupted by intense shortness of breath.
07:59forcing the person to sit down in order to breathe.
08:03Rest turns into anguish, and the body loses one of its main forms of recovery.
08:09Fatigue becomes a constant problem.
08:12Not the kind that improves after a good night's sleep, but a persistent fatigue that turns simple tasks into challenges.
08:22The heart, unable to supply enough blood to the muscles and organs,
08:28It forces the body to operate in a state of permanent energy conservation.
08:32Everything weighs more.
08:33Everything requires more effort.
08:34During the night, another detail catches the eye.
08:39The frequent need to urinate.
08:42The body, when lying down, redistributes the liquids accumulated during the day.
08:47And the kidneys try to eliminate the excess.
08:51Although there are several causes for this symptom,
08:54When combined with other signs, it reinforces the suspicion of cardiovascular system failure.
09:01There is also pain that arises in the legs when walking, especially in the calves.
09:08It appears after a few meters, improves when you stop, and returns as soon as movement resumes.
09:16It's not muscular.
09:17It's a lack of blood.
09:18It's the muscle asking for oxygen that isn't arriving in sufficient quantity.
09:22This pattern is an accurate representation of compromised arteries.
09:26And so, we come to the symptom that no one should ever ignore.
09:31Chest pain.
09:33It can manifest as pressure, tightness, heaviness, and burning.
09:37It can radiate to the left arm, neck, back, jaw, and stomach.
09:45It may be accompanied by cold sweats, nausea, paleness, and dizziness.
09:50You can go and come back.
09:52It can last for minutes.
09:53In any of these forms, it should be treated as an emergency until proven otherwise.
09:59Underestimating this pain is betting against time itself.
10:03Given all of this, the inevitable question arises.
10:07Is it possible to prevent the heart from reaching that point?
10:12The answer is yes, but it requires consistent decisions, repeated every day.
10:17Movement is one of them.
10:18The body was made to move, and a sedentary lifestyle takes a heavy toll.
10:24Simple activities, performed regularly, strengthen the heart and improve circulation.
10:31They reduce inflammation and help prevent progressive blockages.
10:36Quitting smoking is another decision that changes lives.
10:40Smoking damages the arteries, accelerates vascular aging, promotes plaque formation, and increases...
10:47It drastically reduces the risk of heart attack, stroke, and numerous other complications.
10:53There is no such thing as safe consumption when it comes to tobacco.
10:56Body weight also plays a crucial role.
11:00Excess fat puts a strain on the heart, raises blood pressure, and worsens blood sugar control.
11:08It inflames the body and compromises several systems at the same time.
11:13Losing weight isn't about aesthetics, it's a survival strategy.
11:18Food acts as both fuel and poison, depending on the choices made.
11:24Prioritize natural foods, rich in fiber, vegetables, fruits, whole grains, and healthy fats.
11:30It protects the arteries.
11:31The excess of ultra-processed foods, sugars, and unhealthy fats accelerates processes that lead to...
11:37Years go by before they are noticed, but they leave deep marks.
11:41Family history cannot be ignored.
11:45When parents, siblings, or grandparents have had early heart problems, the risk increases and vigilance is necessary.
11:51It needs to be bigger.
11:53Medical exams, check-ups, and prevention are no longer optional.
11:58Controlling cholesterol, triglycerides, glucose, and blood pressure is part of that same commitment.
12:06Even with healthy habits, some people need medication.
12:09This is not failure.
12:12It's biology.
12:13The liver produces a large portion of the body's cholesterol, and lifestyle changes don't always always work.
12:19Life is sufficient.
12:20The important thing is to keep the levels under control and reduce the long-term risk.
12:27If you've made it this far, it's because you understand that information can save lives.
