Understanding Earlobe Creases and Heart Health

Did you realize that if you have a diagonal crease on your

earlobe, you might be at

risk for having a heart attack? Pause this video, go to the mirror,

and look at

your earlobe right where it meets your jawline.

You're looking for this single crease running at a forty-five degree angle from

the

ear canal downward toward the edge of the lobe. That crease has a name.

It's called Frank's sign. It shows up in around seventy percent of

people with coronary heart disease.

Cardiologists know about it, but most patients have never heard of it.

Most people walking around have no idea that could be an indicator

of heart issues. When your heart starts losing blood

supply, certain tissues

further away from the heart don't get enough blood, like your earlobes.

The earlobe has no cartilage. It's basically a tiny little bag of

capillaries held together with collagen and elastin.

When you starve it of blood, the connective tissue starts to collapse,

and that's

what produces the diagonal crease. Why am I even bringing this up?

To make you more aware. If you have this crease,

I highly recommend doing another

test that's way more diagnostic, and it's called the CAC

test, and this stands for coronary artery

calcium score.

This looks deep inside the arteries to see if there's calcium building up, which

usually comes from an inflamed artery because the diet is not that

great. Get the CAC test, and if there is calcium that builds up, you want to get

on a low-carb diet and start taking vitamin K2 with vitamin

D3 to help remove the calcium. For more details on the topic,
