Check Your Earlobes

Are you at risk of a heart attack? Check your earlobes!

If you DON’T have horizontal creases on your earlobes – that’s great news! People who do could be at higher risk of coronary artery disease according to cardiologists. It’s one of the things they check for when assessing your cardiovascular health. If you do have horizontal creases in one or both of your earlobes – don’t panic. It’s just an indicator – and it gives your doctor more incentive to monitor your other risk factors more closely.
