The Shift to Holistic Cardiology

Holistic cardiology focuses on treating the root causes of heart disease through lifestyle changes and nutrition rather than solely relying on pharmaceuticals. Dr. Jack Wolfson, who transitioned from a traditional cardiology practice to holistic cardiology, observed a lack of interest in natural approaches among his peers. His journey accelerated after witnessing the health decline of his father, a cardiologist, in conjunction with the rising number of patients returning with unresolved health issues despite medication.
