On Jan. 12, Lisa Marie Presley, daughter of American rock star and the “King of Rock ‘n’ Roll,” Elvis Presley, died of cardiac arrest—once again arousing public attention to heart disease. Shu Rong, a senior British traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) physician, reminds us of the need to be fully aware of the five distress signals of the heart.
