A heart attack seems like a one-way event: a blockage, injured muscle, and damage that stays. Yet the heart has a built-in repair system, and scientists thought they knew how it worked. A new study says they had the source wrong. The same research team then found a way to strengthen that repair in animals,…
Most people file heart disease under problems for later in life, something to think about in their 50s or 60s. New research on young adults suggests that timeline deserves a second look. It also points to a condition that links your heart to other systems in your body, one that most people have never heard…
What if one treatment could change how your body handles cholesterol for good? Researchers have now tested that idea in people for the first time and followed the results for a full year. The findings are early and come from a small group, but they raise a question that matters to anyone who has ever…
We spend a lot of time debating which foods help us live longer and very little time asking when we should eat them. A team of researchers followed a large group of American adults over several years to look at exactly that, and the answer was not as simple as “earlier is always better.” Some…

If you’ve been managing heart failure for a while, there’s a good chance your cardiologist has never once mentioned digoxin. It fell out of favor decades ago, pushed aside by newer, pricier drugs. But new research out of the Netherlands — published in two of the most respected medical journals in the world — is…
Extra virgin olive oil has been a staple of the Mediterranean diet, a way of eating associated with longer lifespans, healthier hearts, and lower rates of chronic disease. While many of its benefits have been linked to its healthy fats and antioxidant content, researchers discovered something remarkable hiding within this golden liquid. A naturally occurring…
Heart disease remains one of the leading causes of death in the United States, but your daily habits can strongly influence your long-term cardiovascular health. One of the most effective tools for protecting the heart is regular cardiovascular activity. Walking, cycling, swimming, dancing, and other forms of aerobic exercise can strengthen the heart, improve circulation,…
Aging is often seen as a steady, one-way process, especially when it comes to your heart. Over time, the heart muscle stiffens, blood vessels lose flexibility, and your risk for cardiovascular disease rises. But what if that trajectory isn’t set in stone? Emerging research suggests that your heart may be far more adaptable than previously…
