ydia Jones had no idea she was about to die.

She’d been brought to the emergency room with severe shortness of

breath. The doctors diagnosed her with heart failure, confirmed by a profound

drop in LVEF (left ventricular ejection fraction), meaning not enough blood

was pumped out with each heartbeat. And among the other tests they ran, they

found she had a very high level of galectin-3.

In time, her symptoms got better, and she didn’t have to go back to the hospital.

But by the four-month follow-up contact, Lydia had died.

So even though this 63-year-old woman had never before had heart prob-

lems, and even though she was able to leave the hospital feeling better, that

elevated galectin-3 may have turned out to be a death sentence.^1

Researchers were surprised to uncover the galectin-3/heart failure connec-

tion. But now that this deadly culprit has been identified, you can take steps to

save your life. The first step is to have yourself tested—and I’ll give you details

on that in a moment. Then, if necessary, you can begin the only protocol

proven to combat this specific issue.

And just so you know what you’re up against, galectin-3 is much more

dangerous than it sounds.
