On this episode of Vitality Radio, we continue our deep dive into systemic enzymes, building on the foundation laid in episodes #530 & 566. This time, the focus is on practical protocols that combine Fibrenza with key companions and targeted nutrient support for cardiovascular health, immune resilience, and recovery. You'll learn how systemic enzymes modulate the immune system for conditions like autoimmune disease and fibromyalgia, why pairing them with other supportive supplements can retrain immune balance and strengthen the gut lining at the root. Jared also shares cardiovascular strategies post-COVID — using Fibrenza with supplements that support nitric oxide, vessel flexibility, and inflammation balance. Finally, the discussion turns to exercise recovery, with protocols designed to accelerate healing, reduce soreness, and protect tendons and ligaments. This episode is about root cause solutions — supporting balance, reducing inflammatory debris, and nourishing the body so it can do what it was designed to do: heal and thrive.Products:Fibrenza Systemic EnzymeKyolic Moducare Daily Immune SupportVital 5 Precision Probiotic Vital SporesNatural Factors L-Glutamine PowderGet Well Stay WellN.O.

Blood Work Decoded: Understanding the "Why" Behind Heart Disease and PAD Saturday LIVE on "The Heart of Innovation," Global PAD Association CEO Kym McNicholas and Dr. John Phillips welcome vascular surgeon Dr. Lily Johnston from Scripps La Jolla in California to discuss the root causes of peripheral artery disease and heart conditions. Dr. Johnston brings her extensive background (Princeton, Mayo Clinic, Johns Hopkins) to explore how advanced blood work can reveal underlying issues that traditional approaches might miss. She'll decode: • What your lipid panel actually means for your vascular health • Key blood cell markers everyone should understand • Why anemia frequently accompanies cardiovascular conditions • Which specialized tests to discuss with your doctor As founder of the Vascular Health Institute, Dr. Johnston takes a metabolic approach to vascular disease, focusing on prevention and addressing underlying causes rather than just managing symptoms.

That's because most physicians aren't trained to look for common indicators of heart disease risk in the early stages, such as inflammation, insulin resistance, endothelial dysfunction, and silent plaque progression.In this episode, I sit down with cardiometabolic nutritionist Michelle Routhenstein to break down what's missing in traditional heart health advice. Michelle walks us through the lab numbers that matter most, how your gut and bowel habits relate to cholesterol, and why erectile dysfunction may be an early warning sign.She'll open your eyes to why eating “clean” doesn't equal heart-healthy, why so many are misled by low-carb and keto trends, and how to stop arterial plaque from accumulating silently for decades before the first event strikes."No matter where you are, no matter your age, no matter what you look like, heart disease does not discriminate between underweight and overweight." ~ Michelle RouthensteinAbout Michelle Routhenstein:Michelle is a preventive cardiology nutritionist and the founder of Entirely Nourished, a practice dedicated to reducing cardiovascular risk through evidence-based, personalized nutrition. She holds a master's in clinical nutrition, is a member of the Forbes Health Advisory Board, and the author of The Truly Easy Heart Healthy Cookbook.

CT Scan for Coronary Artery Calcification Window Guest: Thomas C. Gerber, M.D., Ph.D. Host: Stephen L. Kopecky, M.D. Coronary artery calcification (CAC) scanning can help improving our assessment of the risk of heart attack or stroke in thoughtfully selected patients. Not everyone needs a CAC scan! The results of a CAC scan can be particularly helpful in deciding whether a patient should start medications to reduce their risk. Coronary artery calcium scanning is *not* used to follow a patient's risk over time (to see whether the risk is decreasing or increasing). Topics Discussed: How is a coronary artery calcification (CAC) scan done, and what can the results tell us about a patient's cardiovascular risk and management? Who should consider having a CAC scan? Should a patient discuss the possibility of a CAC scan with their doctor, and should they just self-refer to a screening center? What changes can we make in patient management based on CAC scan findings? How should we monitor whether the management is improving the patient's cardiovascular risk? How often should a CAC scan be done? Connect with Mayo Clinic's Cardiovascular Continuing Medical Education online at https://cveducation.mayo.edu or on Twitter @MayoClinicCV and @MayoCVservices.

Can this one thing actually lower cholesterol, improve insulin resistance, keep bones strong, boost immunity and detoxification, and prevent dementia? We tend to compartmentalize our bodily systems, but they are all connected and the cardiovascular system is at the head of them all.
