Episode Highlights From Katie
- The concept of the “Four Horsemen” of chronic disease and why 85% of people over 50 die from one of these conditions.
- What these diseases share in common: long, silent development over years or decades before symptoms appear.
- Why traditional screening often catches disease too late. And how new data and AI tools can identify risk far earlier.
- The difference between 10-year risk scoring and lifetime risk (and why most people never receive the latter).
- Why cancer screening is age-based rather than risk-based and how this overlooks key early indicators.
- How AI-driven assessments like Catch use massive datasets to calculate disease risk more accurately than traditional methods.
- What I learned from my own cancer risk assessment and why it shifted my thinking about proactive health.
- Why foundational lifestyle inputs (sunlight, vegetables, oily fish, hydration, minerals, sleep, movement, and avoiding chronic inflammation) are more powerful than supplements in reducing long-term disease risk.
- The connection between allergies, immune signaling, inflammation, and long-term disease patterns.
- How early lifestyle patterns influence future metabolic, cardiovascular, and cognitive health.
- Simple, data-backed ways to lower lifelong risk starting today without fear, overwhelm, or chasing expensive solutions.
