Summary of Transcript:
The video discusses a study showing that individuals who can do more push-ups have a lower risk of cardiovascular Disease. However, the speaker suggests that this is likely due to these individuals generally being more fit and healthy, rather than push-ups, specifically lowering the risk of heart disease. The speaker argues that studies should focus on the causes of heart disease, such as inflammation, from factors like refined sugar, smoking, stress, and vitamin E deficiency. The speaker suggests that other physical activities, like pull-ups or hiking, may also have a similar effect on reducing heart disease risk due to the individuals generally living a healthier lifestyle.

Summary of Description:
A recent study showed that people who do more than 40 push-ups have less risk of heart disease over 10 years than those who do 10 or fewer push-ups. However, Dr. Eric Berg believes that people who can do more push-ups usually have a healthier lifestyle, which may be the real reason for their lower risk of heart disease. Cardiovascular Disease starts with inflammation in the inner lining of arteries, and the biggest cause of inflammation is the consumption of refined carbs and sugars. Therefore, lowering inflammation—not doing more push-ups—is the key to reducing cardiovascular disease risk.

Push-ups have long been touted as a form of exercise that can lower the risk of cardiovascular Disease. However, a recent cohort study found that the number of push-ups a person can do may not be the sole factor affecting their risk of heart disease. In this article, we look closely at the study and explore the root causes of inflammation that lead to heart disease.
What the study found
The study involved over 1000 people and found that those who could perform more than 40 push-ups had a lower risk of heart disease over the next ten years. However, it’s important to note that doing more push-ups does not necessarily reduce the risk of heart disease. People who can do more push-ups tend to have a healthier lifestyle, which may be the reason for their lower risk of heart disease.
The root causes of inflammation
The connection between push-ups and heart disease lies in inflammation, the root cause of cardiovascular Disease. Inflammation in the inner lining of the arteries causes plaque and artery hardening, which leads to obstructed blood flow. Refined carbs/sugars are the biggest cause of inflammation, diabetes, refined oils, refined flour, smoking, vitamin E deficiency, and stress.
The key to lowering your risk of heart disease
Doing push-ups probably won’t hurt, but it’s not a cure-all. The real key to lowering your risk of heart disease is reducing inflammation. By reducing your consumption of refined carbs/sugars and engaging in healthy behaviors such as exercise, stress reduction, and getting proper vitamins and minerals (such as Vitamin E), you can significantly lower inflammation and decrease your risk of heart disease.
In conclusion, push-ups may not be the answer to lowering your cardiovascular disease risk. Instead, focus on reducing inflammation through healthy lifestyle choices such as a balanced diet, exercise, and stress reduction. You can protect yourself against heart disease and other health problems by taking care of your body.

In this video, we will talk about push-ups and Cardiovascular Disease.
A cohort study involving over 1000 people showed that the number of push-ups that a person can do, the less risk they have of heart disease over ten years.
This study compared people who can do more than 40 push-ups to those who can do ten or fewer push-ups.
I don’t believe doing more push-ups necessarily means your risk of heart disease reduces. Instead, I think people who can do more push-ups tend to have a healthier lifestyle than those who don’t.
I have a question for you: how many push-ups can you do? Put your answer in the comments below.
I wanted to talk about this study because I think researchers should put more time and money into the cause of heart disease—what is behind it?
Cardiovascular Disease starts with inflammation in the inner lining of your arteries. This inflammation causes plaque and artery hardening. In turn, this creates to obstruct blood flow. Blood clots can also block flow and cause a heart attack. Clots can then break into pieces can go into the brain, causing a stroke.
The question is, can push-ups reduce inflammation? I don’t think so.
The consumption of refined carbs/sugars is the biggest cause of inflammation.
The most common causes of inflammation are:
• Sugar
• Diabetes
• Refined oils
• Refined flour
• Smoking
• Stress
• Vitamin E deficiency
In summary, the key to lowering your cardiovascular disease risk is reducing inflammation—not doing more push-ups (though it probably won’t hurt).

Thanks for watching. I hope this helped explain why push-ups may not be the key to lowering your cardiovascular disease risk—but reducing your inflammation is. I’ll see you in the next video.
