A Life Without Heart Attacks?

A Life Without Heart Attacks?

Directed by Matthias Hoferichter 2010 | ZDF | arte

The human cardiovascular system was created for a time about 20000 years ago. Not only evolutional biologists claim that. Also heart scientists like Jochen Jordan of the clinic for psychocardiology in Bad Nauheim share this opinion.  The human body is not made for life in modernity. Wrong diets, lack of exercise, too many toxins , too much stress and hectic. But does this explain why some families have a higher rate of heart attacks than others and which gender specific differences there are with heart disease?  The documentary attempts to find answers to these questions and accompanies researchers in Great Britain, Germany, France and Italy on their fascinating search for the possibility of life without heart attack.
