On today's Good Day Health Show - ON DEMAND…Host Doug Stephan and Dr. Ken Kronhaus of Lake Cardiology (352-735-1400) cover a number of topics affecting our health. First up, Doug and Dr. Ken begin with a link between niacin and heart disease, supplements from real food vs synthetic supplements, and a publication of drinking sugary drinks and thinking working out will offset what you're putting in your body. Then, the conversation continues a focus on working out with a shift to benefits for mental health. Studies show dancing as a preferred form of working out can help combat depression. More good news about exercising show that those who regularly move for health are more likely to avoid getting extremely ill if they get COVID-19, possible even lowering their risk of getting the virus at all. Next up, evaluating 10 common illnesses and your risk factor with new genetic testing. These are nearly ready for use in doctors' offices to be used to evaluate genetic risk for A-fib, breast cancer, kidney disease, heart disease, high cholesterol, prostate cancer, asthma, types 1 and 2 Diabetes, and obesity. This will help in preventive medicine and help patients lower their risk of developing these diseases. The discussion shifts to listener questions, with one coming from Doug's son, who is dealing with Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA). As Dr. Ken explains, there is a breakthrough of a drug the will help to ease symptoms and prevents joint damage in RA patients. Another question discusses how cutting out meat can ease snoring and minimize a risk of sleep apnea. It's not just about shifting to a plant-based diet, but a healthy plant-based diet. Website: GoodDayHealthShow.com Social Media: @GoodDayNetworks

The Silent Threat Women Face Heart disease remains the number one killer of women in America, yet nearly half of all women fail to recognize it as their greatest health threat. During a recent Community Health episode of The Valley Today, host Janet Michael talks with Dr. April Shewmake, a board-certified interventional cardiologist at Winchester Cardiology and Vascular Medicine I Valley Health, to uncover the truth about cardiovascular health. What emerged was a compelling conversation that challenges common misconceptions and empowers listeners to take control of their heart health. Understanding the Specialist's Perspective Dr. Shewmake brings a unique dual expertise to her practice. As an interventional cardiologist, she treats heart attack emergencies in the catheterization lab using minimally invasive procedures to open blocked arteries. However, she emphasizes that general cardiology—the preventive side of her work—plays an equally vital role. "Before things become an emergency or a heart attack," she explains, "that's the general cardiology piece." This preventive approach focuses on long-term care, diagnostic imaging, and medication management to stop heart disease before it starts. The Prevention Paradox Perhaps the most striking revelation from the conversation centers on prevention. According to Dr. Shewmake, between 70 and 90 percent of heart disease is entirely preventable. This statistic transforms heart health from a matter of fate into one of choice. The key lies in daily habits that many people overlook: maintaining a healthy diet, exercising regularly, controlling blood pressure, managing stress, getting adequate sleep, and remaining tobacco-free. Nevertheless, Dr. Shewmake acknowledges that genetics do play a role. Some patients develop heart disease despite doing everything right. This reality underscores why awareness and early detection remain crucial, even for those who maintain healthy lifestyles. Recognizing the Warning Signs When it comes to identifying potential heart problems, Dr. Shewmake urges people to pay attention to specific symptoms. The major warning signs include chest pressure, shortness of breath, fatigue, dizziness, nausea, and pain radiating to the jaw, arms, or back. Critically, symptoms that appear during physical exertion and improve with rest signal early-stage heart disease. Furthermore, Dr. Shewmake dispels the Hollywood myth that distinguishes heart attacks from indigestion. In reality, many people—particularly young adults and women—delay seeking treatment because they assume their symptoms indicate simple indigestion. Women especially tend to experience atypical presentations, manifesting nausea and shortness of breath rather than classic chest pain. "Don't delay," she insists. "If you think something's wrong, come to the hospital." The 911 Rule Dr. Shewmake reinforces a critical safety message: never drive yourself to the hospital if you suspect a heart attack. Instead, call 911 immediately. Emergency medical services can begin life-saving treatment en route, significantly improving outcomes. This advice echoes the guidance of other cardiologists and represents a consensus among heart specialists. Women's Unique Risk Profile The conversation takes a deeper dive into the specific challenges women face regarding heart disease. Dr. Shewmake reveals that nearly 45 percent of women over age 20 have cardiovascular disease, yet less than half recognize this reality. Heart disease kills more women than all cancers—including breast cancer—combined, claiming one in three female lives. Moreover, women face distinct risk factors that men do not encounter. Hormonal changes during menopause, pregnancy-related complications, and autoimmune conditions all contribute to cardiovascular risk. Additionally, women often present with symptoms later in life but develop more complex disease. The medical community sometimes dismisses women's symptoms, compounding the problem. The Caregiver's Dilemma Janet raises an important point about women's tendency to prioritize others' health over their own. Women rush their husbands and children to the doctor at the first sign of trouble, yet they dismiss their own symptoms as minor inconveniences. Dr. Shewmake validates this observation and emphasizes the need to close the gap in how heart disease gets recognized and treated in women. She advocates for reframing primary care visits as self-care—an hour dedicated to one's own wellbeing. Using the airplane oxygen mask analogy, she reminds women that they must take care of themselves first to remain available for their families.  The Rising Threat to Young Adults Alarmingly, cardiovascular disease increasingly affects younger populations. Dr. Shewmake shares that her youngest female heart attack patient was 38, while her youngest male patient was just 30. Janet recounts the tragic story of her son's two high school friends—both in their early thirties—who died from heart attacks within three months. This trend stems from rising cardiovascular risk factors among young people, including diabetes, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol appearing at earlier ages. Additionally, genetics likely play a stronger role in these younger cases. Young adults often assume they're invincible, delaying treatment when symptoms appear. This dangerous mindset can prove fatal. Know Your Numbers Throughout the conversation, Dr. Shewmake repeatedly emphasizes the importance of knowing four critical numbers: cholesterol, blood pressure, BMI, and blood sugar. These metrics serve as early warning indicators for heart disease risk. She encourages everyone to discuss these numbers with their primary care physician and take action when they fall outside healthy ranges. Importantly, all these risk factors respond to treatment. Modern medicine offers excellent options for managing weight, cholesterol, and blood sugar. Some newer weight-loss medications not only help patients shed pounds and lower A1C levels but also provide cardiovascular benefits. These treatments represent powerful tools in the fight against heart disease. The Technology Trap When Janet mentions the false sense of security that fitness trackers provide, Dr. Shewmake agrees wholeheartedly. While devices like the Apple Watch offer some benefits, they cannot replace a comprehensive medical evaluation. No wearable technology can measure cholesterol levels, assess blood glucose, or provide the nuanced analysis that comes from a conversation with a healthcare provider. The Path Forward Dr. Shewmake welcomes referrals from primary care physicians when patients need specialized cardiovascular assessment. She sees many patients who request consultations even when their primary care doctors deem it unnecessary, and she views these visits as valuable opportunities for in-depth risk evaluation. Cardiologists can order specialized tests and provide individualized guidance that goes beyond population-level statistics. Breaking the Biggest Myth As the conversation concludes, Dr. Shewmake tackles the most dangerous misconception about heart disease: that it primarily affects men. While society recognizes heart attacks as the leading killer of men, this awareness doesn't extend to women. This gap in understanding costs lives. Her final message centers on empowerment. She urges everyone—especially women—to listen to their bodies, take symptoms seriously, and advocate for themselves when they know something feels wrong. Heart disease may be common, but it remains both preventable and treatable. Early action saves lives, and awareness changes everything. The Simple Truth Ultimately, Dr. Shewmake's message boils down to simple, actionable steps: eat well, move more, manage stress, get enough sleep, know your numbers, and remain tobacco-free. These everyday habits make a profound difference in cardiovascular health. Combined with regular medical care and self-advocacy, they form a powerful defense against America's leading cause of death. The conversation serves as both a wake-up call and a roadmap. Heart disease doesn't discriminate, but knowledge and action provide protection. By recognizing symptoms early, understanding personal risk factors, and prioritizing preventive care, individuals can take control of their heart health and potentially add years to their lives.

Your parents have supported your goals and dreams your whole life, and now that they are growing older, you want to help care for them. The predicament many physicians face is how to balance giving money to their parents and save enough for retirement. Nate Reineke and Chelsea Jones discuss some changes you can make to accomplish this goal and how trade-offs are inevitable. We also answer your colleagues' questions. Cardiologist in Texas says, “I am a W2 employee but I have $100k of additional 1099 income. Should I open a SEP IRA or a Solo 401k?” Dermatologist In Florida asks, “My spouse makes $500k/year. Is it worth it for me to take a job that makes $80k/year while my children are pre-teen?” A Urologist in New York wonders, “If I am going to be in a high tax bracket in retirement, and I'm in a high tax bracket now, should I put money in a Roth or taxable account instead of making pre-tax contributions?” Are you ready to turn worries about taxes and investing into all the money you need for college and retirement?

In this episode of Sisterhood of S.W.E.A.T., Linda Mitchell sits down with Dr. John Osborne, board-certified cardiologist, lipidologist, and founder of Clear Cardio, to challenge conventional thinking around cholesterol and heart disease. Dr. Osborne explains why LDL cholesterol alone is not a reliable standalone marker for cardiovascular disease and why focusing only on traditional lab numbers can create a false sense of security. He shares how plaque can quietly develop for decades before symptoms appear — and why the first symptom for many people is a heart attack or sudden cardiac event. The conversation explores the evolution of cardiac imaging, the role of ApoB and lipoprotein(a) in risk assessment, and how advanced cardiac CT combined with artificial intelligence now allows physicians to detect, measure, and track plaque in ways that were previously impossible. This episode reframes heart disease as something that can be identified early — and potentially prevented — when the right tools are used. What We Talk About in This Episode Why LDL cholesterol alone does not tell the full story The difference between risk factors and actual disease How ApoB improves cardiovascular risk assessment Why lipoprotein(a) is genetic and should be tested at least once The limits of traditional stress testing How plaque forms in the arterial wall decades before symptoms Calcium scoring versus full cardiac CT imaging How AI is transforming plaque detection and measurement Whether arterial plaque can be slowed or reversed The real role of statins and other cholesterol-lowering tools Why you cannot out-train genetics The one scan adults over 40 should consider Quotes from This Episode Cholesterol floating in your bloodstream does not tell me if it is sticking. Risk is not disease. The first question should be: do you have plaque? Half of men and two-thirds of women, their first symptom of heart disease is a heart attack or death. The problem is not that we cannot treat plaque. The problem is that we are not looking for it early enough. Early detection for heart disease should be as routine as screening for cancer.

Saturated fat is back in the headlines, and so is the confusion.The new Dietary Guidelines for Americans just dropped, and while there's clear progress (more support for animal-based protein, low-carb options, and reduced sugar), they've kept the 10% cap on saturated fat. But does the science still support that limit, and does it make sense with the rest of the recommendations?In this episode, Dr. Bret Scher breaks down the real story on saturated fat: where the guidelines get it right, where they fall short, and why context is everything when it comes to fat, food, and metabolic health.He covers:✅ The 5 main types of evidence on saturated fat✅ Why source and dietary context matter more than grams✅ What randomized trials, ketogenic studies & LDL data really show✅ The problem with lumping steak and pizza into one category✅ Why blanket limits may harm people trying to improve their metabolic healthThe saturated fat debate isn't just about grams, it's about individual metabolic health. When we zoom out and look at the full picture, it becomes clear that not all saturated fat is created equal.

On today's Good Day Health Show - ON DEMAND…Host Doug Stephan and Dr. Ken Kronhaus of Lake Cardiology (352-735-1400) cover a number of topics affecting our health. First up, Doug and Dr. Ken begin with a story about a stem cell that's been derived from helper T-cells, diving into how this therapy will help those with cancer. This is a development that aims to lead to more people beating cancer. Continuing on with good news in health news, there is a breakthrough for Sjogrens Syndrome patients, a debilitating autoimmune disease that lacks specific therapies. Then, Doug and Dr. Ken shift focus to the health watch Doug wears with Ken monitoring Doug's health. While Doug feels fine, his watch is telling Dr. Ken otherwise. This goes beyond the fitness tracker devices people wear, this is a medical grade device where doctors can monitor their patients health, including their stress level and heart-related health issues. The device is a helpful tool because it not only lets doctors know what is going on in their patients' bodies without them being in the office, but it also helps people keep alert to things about their body they may otherwise miss. Many doctors out there are beginning to be more focused on preventative measures, and preventative-cardiology is gaining more notice. Website: GoodDayHealthrShow.com Social Media: @GoodDayNetworks

“When Jesus heard it, He said to them, ‘Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance.’” (Mark 2:17 NKJV) Jesus interacted with a remarkably diverse group of people during His public ministry. The Gospels record His encounters with Pharisees, tax collectors, Roman officials, fishermen, a Samaritan woman, and a host of others. One of the extraordinary things about these encounters is the personalized attention He gave each person, whether He was offering encouragement, rebuke, or healing. He recognized that every man, every woman, and every child is different. And though they have many of the same problems and the same basic needs, He realized that there were unique things about them that required individual ministry. He saw people for exactly who they were. He understood exactly what they needed. And He provided it. It’s no wonder people refer to Him as the Great Physician. Jesus Himself said, “Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance” (Mark 2:17 NKJV). Like a physician, Jesus usually saw people at their worst. I’ve always thought that one of the hardest things about being a doctor is that you only see people when they’re sick or in need of medical assistance. Most physicians don’t get a lot of patients stopping by their office to say, “Hey, Doc, I’m feeling great! I just wanted to let you know. Want to go to lunch?” You don’t usually call your doctor when you’re feeling good. You call when you’re feeling sick. And your doctor will have you come in, examine you, and apply the necessary treatment to the area of need. Doctors, of course, are limited in their areas of expertise. Cardiologists specialize in heart health. Dermatologists specialize in matters of the skin. Gastroenterologists specialize in digestive system health. Hematologists specialize in blood disorders. Oncologists specialize in cancer treatment. The list goes on and on. Jesus, on the other hand, can treat the whole person. He caused the blind to see, the deaf to hear, the disabled to walk, and the dead to live. He removed the spiritual torment of the demon-possessed. He eased the emotional struggles of the frightened and grieving. He didn’t just improve people’s quality of life; He gave them a life they never knew was possible. That’s what He meant when He said, “I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly” (John 10:10 NKJV). Jesus still provides personalized care for His people. He knows what you need. In fact, He knows better than you do what you need. And He can and will provide it. Reach out to Him. Open yourself to His loving ministry. Let Him guide you into the life He has planned for you. Enjoy all the benefits of having a personal Physician. Reflection question: How has Jesus impacted your life in a personal way?

What if fulfillment comes not from chasing more, but from simplifying how you see life, work, and personal growth? Many people hold themselves back through fear, misplaced expectations, or a lack of clarity about what truly matters. Reframing these patterns can change how progress, happiness, and purpose are experienced over time. In this episode, Bryan Sweet revisits a powerful conversation with Dr. Bharat “Doc” Sangani, Cardiologist and Founder and CEO of Encore Enterprises, reflecting on belief, decision-making, mentorship, and redefining happiness. The discussion explores fear management, values-based living, long-term perspective, and the idea that happiness can be measured through health, wealth, and relationships. Key takeaways: How belief paired with effort influences long-term progress and resilience Why fear often comes from a lack of preparation rather than a lack of ability The importance of mentors in validating direction and realistic expectations A practical framework for viewing mistakes as feedback instead of failure How simplifying values and perspective can reshape fulfillment and motivation And more!

First up, Doug and Dr. Ken begin with an oncology report on cancer survival rates with a rise in success in treating, including a 5-year survival rate for all cancers, and another gain in GLP-1s use as it attributes to cardiovascular health. Next up, Doug and Dr. Ken address cholesterol levels and why simply looking at the number alone isn't beneficial because it's only one part of an overall health assessment, and why cardiologists are no longer focusing on “good cholesterol.” There's also a protein 20% of people have that causes those who look like they are the most fit and wind up with an early heart attack because of this elevated protein, and how it correlates to LDL cholesterol. Lastly, Doug and Dr. Ken answer listener questions, including one about exercise and depression. A new report aggregated from numerous studies suggests exercise is just as effective as psychological therapy or antidepressants for alleviating symptoms of depression. This further's the “exercise is medicine” movement as it relates to mild to moderate depression. Additionally, the new food pyramid stresses protein, it stresses getting rid of processed food, it stresses getting rid of added sugar (natural sugars are OK), and minimization of saturated fat in patients moderate to high risk patients with circulation issues. Website: GoodDayHealthrShow.com Social Media: @GoodDayNetworks

Doug Reynolds welcomes listeners back to the LowCarbUSA® Podcast with a guest who works in one of the most specialized—and most misunderstood—corners of cardiovascular medicine: the heart's electrical system.  Dr. David Nabert is an electrophysiologist ("EP" doctor), focused on heart rhythm disorders, and he's one of the featured speakers at the Boca Symposium for Metabolic Health (January 23–25)—including the event's full day-plus dedicated to cardiovascular conditions. What gives this episode its pull is the combination of clinical depth and lived experience. David isn't just talking about rhythm problems from a textbook perspective—he's explaining how his own curiosity about metabolic health evolved, what shifted when he started questioning conventional assumptions, and why those questions matter for real patients in the real world. David describes how his entry point into metabolic health didn't begin in a clinic—it began with a random Google search. In 2021, while looking up a cardiology formula, he accidentally landed on a Nina Teicholz talk at the Cato Institute. "I started to watch it, and all of a sudden, an hour and a half passed," he says—one of those moments where interest turns into momentum. He listened to Teicholz's book, The Big Fat Surprise, then began searching for more voices in the low-carb space and quickly reconnected with familiar names, including Dr. Robert Cywes and Dr. Eric Westman (both will also be presenting in Boca), whom he calls mentors. That exploration ultimately led him to the Society of Metabolic Health Practitioners (The SMHP) and, importantly, a willingness to test ideas on himself. David is candid about his own weight journey. He describes a time when a body mass index under 25 felt "skinny" to him, and he's open about losing weight, regaining some after a series of hip surgeries, and continuing to work on it. What ultimately shifted, though, wasn't just the number on the scale—it was how he began to rethink what "doing everything right" actually means. For years, he approached weight loss the way many clinicians were trained to: low-fat, high willpower, endure the hunger. He describes his old strategy bluntly: "The only way I had lost weight… was by doing protein sparing modified fast… I was just eating almost no fat." Predictably, it wasn't sustainable. When he later shifted to a lower-carb, higher-fat approach—"bacon, eggs, hamburger"—he was "amazed at how quickly I started to lose weight," and he began seeing changes in markers that traditional cardiology often de-emphasizes. After stopping long-term statin therapy (which he had been on for 25 years), he saw his LDL return to roughly where it had been earlier in life, but other changes caught his attention: triglycerides dropped to the lowest he'd ever seen, HDL improved, and fasting insulin improved as well. Just as meaningful were the changes he felt: "Every 10 or 20 pounds I lost, my hips got better," he says, attributing it not only to less load, but "also part of it was less inflammation." From there, the episode moves into the heart of why David is speaking during the cardiovascular-focused programming in Boca: rhythm, electricity, and the surprising overlap between conditions that seem unrelated—like seizures and arrhythmias. David explains that early ketogenic diet research in the 1920s focused on refractory seizures, and he argues the connection matters because many antiarrhythmic drugs and antiseizure drugs overlap mechanistically. In his view, these aren't separate worlds. "Treating seizures or treating cardiac arrhythmias is basically two faces of the same coin," he says—and that opens a practical question: if ketosis can help reduce seizures, might it also influence certain rhythm symptoms? He shares a striking clinical example that stuck with him: a former submariner with PTSD and episodes of fast heart rates who said, "I know when I'm… ketogenic… when I fall off the wagon… then I start having palpitations and fast heart rates." David later learned the patient was experiencing atrial fibrillation, and while he's careful not to overpromise, he describes a pattern he's observed: in earlier stages of rhythm problems, being in a ketogenic state may reduce symptoms and potentially slow progression for some people. "It doesn't cure atrial fibrillation," he emphasizes, but he's seen ketosis "improves symptoms," not only in AFib, but in other rhythm issues like SVT and PVCs—especially early on. From there, David widens the frame to what he's seeing in younger patients—particularly young women—showing up with palpitations, rapid heart rate, anxiety, and signs of metabolic dysfunction even when they don't "look" unhealthy by BMI alone. "Only 90% of them are metabolically unhealthy," he says, describing a familiar cluster: A1C not quite normal, resting heart rates high, daytime heart rates that shouldn't be running 100–120, and a nervous system dialed up in what he calls a "hyper adrenergic state." The mainstream response is often medication—beta blockers, for example—but David argues metabolic context matters, and he's exploring how nutritional strategies (including ketosis, sometimes even supplemental ketones) may reduce symptom burden in certain cases. He also discusses POTS (Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome), noting it can be associated with viral infections and has become more common since "the bad virus we had five years ago." Again, he's measured in his claims: ketosis isn't a cure, but he's seen it help reduce symptoms in select patients who have tried many other standard approaches first. The second half of the conversation touches on medications and the tension between "lower the number" cardiology and whole-person outcomes. David brings up PCSK9 inhibitors and recalls being troubled by early data patterns: "You were less likely to die from that, but you're more likely to die from cancer or infection… And… the overall mortality was the same." That line of thinking captures what pushed him toward metabolic health: a concern that focusing on a single marker can obscure the bigger picture of risk, resilience, and long-term outcomes. He also discusses SGLT2 inhibitors (like Jardiance and Farxiga) as potentially useful tools—especially in heart failure and diabetes—while stressing the importance of monitoring and hydration. In a moment that captures both his clinical caution and his enthusiasm for empowered patients, he tells people who go low carb on these meds to "get a Keto Mojo to check your ketone levels," because the goal is to use tools intelligently, not blindly. As the episode closes, Doug returns to the bigger mission behind the upcoming Boca program: helping attendees develop a confident, educated response to the most common fear tactic people face when they change their diet—LDL, heart attacks, and the assumption that low carb automatically means danger. Doug notes there are still "so few that really do get it and support it and talk about it," which is exactly why the cardiovascular-focused day-plus at the Boca Symposium for Metabolic Health (January 23–25) matters. David, for his part, is grateful to be part of it—and to be healthy enough to show up differently than last time. He reminds Doug that at previous events he was "either walking with one or two canes," but now, "I'm actually not going to run up on the stage, but I'll be moving pretty quickly." That moment captures the heart of the episode: metabolic health isn't theoretical. It's lived. And in Boca, that lived experience meets serious clinical discussion—especially for anyone trying to better understand cardiovascular risk, rhythm disorders, and the metabolic foundations that too often go unaddressed. If this conversation sparks your curiosity, the next step is obvious: join the community in Boca January 23–25 and immerse yourself in a day and a half of cardiovascular-focused talks designed to help you think more clearly, speak more confidently, and act more effectively—whether you're a clinician, a patient, or someone trying to help the people you love.
