Heartfelt is an eye-opening documentary by Academy Award® winner Cynthia Wade that exposes the global story of living with high LDL-C and breaks the silence on an issue we should all be talking about. Cholesterol. LDL cholesterol (LDL-C) often takes a backseat to other alarming health concerns like diabetes and hypertension, and despite its seriousness, has remained the quiet part in our conversation.
ABOUT MARVIN SMITH
Former NFL player, Marvin Smith, is now a minister and an advocate for former pro football players maintaining their health. His story is part of a new documentary “Heartfelt”, a documentary capturing the stories of people across five different countries engaged in a fight against the same common enemy—LDL cholesterol.
Marvin Smith once played in the NFL. But when his pro career ended he was forced to take a new look at his life and his health. Smith, now a minister, says former football players are often at risk for cardio vascular disease. But since heart disease is the number 1 killer in the United States, we all have to be aware of our risk.
