Dr. Jeremy London, with decades of experience in heart surgery, reveals the four main dietary offenders he consistently avoids for optimal heart health.
Leading off is the industrially processed fast food, which lacks real nutritional value and promotes systemic inflammation detrimental to heart function.
Sugary and diet sodas are next, described as “liquid death” due to their high sugar content, contributing to obesity, diabetes, and fatty lipid profiles that challenge cardiac health.
Milk products also come under scrutiny for their saturated fat content and the peculiar fact that humans uniquely consume milk from other species beyond infancy, raising heart disease risk questions.
Lastly, alcohol—often glamorized—receives a stern warning as a universal toxin to cells, negating supposed benefits and exacerbating cardiovascular risk.

Dr. London counsels an 80/20 diet focusing mostly on whole foods, complemented by physical activity, as the cornerstone of a healthy heart lifestyle.
