The legend of the NFL, Barry Sanders, opens with the recent fear of health, reveals that he has undergone a heart attack

Barry Sanders inspired millions of people with his brilliance on the grill during his career at the renowned temple with the Detroit lions. Now, the legendary NFL Running Back hopes to inspire others again, although in an entirely different way.

Last June, Sanders announced publicly That he had undergone a “fear of health” linked to the heart during the Father’s Day weekend. Sanders, 56, recently shared during a head-to-head interview with CBS Sports that he had undergone a heart attack during a recruitment visit for his son.

“I could not believe it, honestly,” said Sanders, who shared his experience in “The Making of A Heart Catern”, which will be first on Saturday June 14 at 1 pm on A&E. “I thought it was like stomach burns, but it persisted in a way.”

Sanders woke up that morning with what he described as a burning sensation in his chest. After leaving the recruitment visit early, Sanders went to the emergency room later in the afternoon. The tests revealed that Sanders’ enzymes levels were “really high and increased”. He then underwent a heart catheter procedure, which revealed that he had indeed undergone a heart attack.

“Of all things, I don’t know why, it never came to my mind,” said Sanders. “I learn through this process that there are not necessarily warning signs, unless you do what we encourage people to do, that is to say to follow the doctor, to be tested for LDLC levels, or bad cholesterol. It is the only way to know if you have a high cholesterol. It is not something that you will feel.

Sanders opens in the documentary on his experience when he brings together four other people who have experienced a heart attack or a stroke to discover hidden risks, lasting impacts and what others want.

“It has really been an education, for me, how often it happens everywhere in the United States,” said Sanders. “Conversely converse with these other people who are part of this documentary who have very insightful and captivating stories about the trip to which they were. It’s really incredible. I think it will attract the attention of many people.”

Almost a year withdrawn from his heart attack, Sanders – who encourages people to visit Attackheartdosease.com/test – said his health had improved. He attributes this to taking advice from his doctor, which includes medication, food changes, additional walking, etc.

“It certainly made me healthier and happier,” said Sanders. “Being the kind of athlete I was, I would see people walking and I was wondering, like:” What kind of training is it? “But there is one thing called a healthy training for the heart, where you get your heart rate a little over a certain period of time, and it’s really good for your heart.

Sanders stressed that, although others have stories similar to his own, everyone’s situation is different with regard to heart health.

“Sometimes it’s hereditary and it’s not like doing something wrong,” said Sanders. “There are a lot of different stories and examples. This is why it is important that people have this conversation with their doctor.”

In addition to becoming a cardiac health defender, the fear of Sanders’s health has also led to another unexpected experience, who was the overwhelming support he received from his fans.

“I have a lot of appreciation,” said Sanders. “I really warmed my heart, the response of the fans, to know that many fans cared so much and cared in this way of the way I did, what I was going through. It meant a lot for me.”
