EP297: Myths and Truths about Heart Disease with Dr. Stephen Hussey

We've all heard dietary saturated fat and cholesterol cause heart disease - but what you might not know - is that the evidence for this belief is not as foolproof as we've been led to believe.

And given that heart disease is still America's #1 kill responsible for almost 700,000 deaths per year - understanding what you can do to prevent it is paramount.

In this week's podcast with the author of Understanding The Heart: Surprising Insights Into The Evolutionary Origins Of Heart Disease - And Why It Matters, Dr. Hussey, we explore 3 little-known (and preventable) causes of heart-based issues and the common misunderstandings keep us stuck.

Dr. Hussey provides invaluable insights given his clinical experience and admitted obsession with the heart, but also because he experienced a heart attack and the shortcomings of current systems and strategies personally in 2020.

This conversation was truly fascinating and I hope you walk away feeling as surprised and informed as I did. :) Here are some of my favorite takeaways:

• The link between intense exercise and heart attacks
• The best test for preventing heart attacks
• The biggest misconception around heart disease
• Why heart attacks occur without a blockage
• The #1 risk factor for heart disease
• The food most of us are eating that may be linked to heart disease
• Why collagen is important for the heart
• Lifestyle tips for heart disease prevention
• Why the sauna is especially heart healthy
• The supplement that can prevent clots as well as medications
• The animal-based nutrients that protect the heart
• The link between heart and dental health
• And so much more!

Please share this important information far and wide, friends.
