Over 60? Don’t Ignore This Morning Heart Attack Warning

This video explains why the first hours after waking are a higher-risk period for heart attacks in people over 60. Dr. Albert breaks down the body’s morning changes—hormone shifts, blood pressure surges, and increased clotting tendency—in plain, reassuring language, and shows how common routines can raise or reduce risk. You’ll learn which symptoms in older adults may be subtle but serious, how to transition safely from sleep to activity, practical medication and lifestyle tips, and when to seek urgent care. The presentation is patient-centered, evidence-informed, and aimed at helping seniors and caregivers make simple, effective changes to reduce morning heart risk.
