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.

In this episode, Dr. Harlan Krumholz introduces the September 16, 2025 issue of JACC, which features studies that challenge conventional clinical thinking, including a detailed ECMO physiology study showing that higher ECMO flow does not uniformly raise pulmonary capillary wedge pressure, suggesting the need for individualized management. A novel analysis of the ISCHEMIA trial revealed distinct angina symptom trajectories, emphasizing that recovery is not binary and supporting a more personalized approach to treatment and monitoring. A landmark target trial emulation found that statins significantly reduce cardiovascular risk in patients with type 1 diabetes—filling a key evidence gap. Additional highlights include a call to redefine early cardiogenic shock, a nuanced review of moderate secondary mitral regurgitation, and an editorial reaffirming JACC's commitment to independent, transparent science in alignment with new "Gold Standard Science" principles.
In this episode, CancerNetwork® spoke with Joseph S. Wallins, MD, MPH, cardiology fellow at Weill Cornell Medicine, about a review of cardiotoxicities associated with breast cancer treatment he coauthored in the June 2025 issue of ONCOLOGY® titled, “Cardio-Oncology Considerations for Breast Cancer: Risk Stratification, Monitoring, and Treatment.” Therein, he touched upon data for risk stratification tools for oncologists, as well as the development of cardiovascular testing for individual treatment regimens. Wallins discussed the basis for conducting the systemic review as well as noteworthy cardiotoxicities associated with specific classes of breast cancer therapies. Specifically, he highlighted an increase in cancer remission and survivorship for breast cancer, which has, in turn, created alternative health risks impacting survival outcomes, such as cardiovascular risks. Citing a study showing a nearly 2-fold risk in cardiovascular-related fatalities for breast cancer survivors vs the general population, he suggested that the review was warranted to identify cardiotoxicities, strategies for preventing and managing them, and tools for risk stratification and monitoring. Wallins further outlined considerations for optimizing risk stratification and monitoring strategies in patients at risk of experiencing cardiovascular toxicities as well as treatments that may help with their prevention or mitigation. To that end, he discussed identifying patients who are at a higher risk before initiating treatment and outlined risk assessment tools that serve to do so. Furthermore, he suggested that patients who experience a greater than moderate risk for cardiovascular issues should undergo cardioprotective strategies and have in-depth conversations with providers regarding treatment risks. He concluded by highlighting future steps to enhance cardiovascular outcomes for patients with breast cancer, among additional key takeaways. Of note, Wallins expressed that genetic testing may help elucidate cardiomyopathy-associated genes while calling for a more personalized approach to risk stratification and more sensitive and specific imaging techniques to better identify at-risk patients. Finally, he emphasized a need for upfront risk assessment to identify patients at a higher risk who could benefit from additional testing as well as more pronounced collaboration between oncologists and cardiologists.

If you're interested in boosting your cardiovascular fitness, I've got three steps for you to do. Your cardiovascular fitness - VO2 max - is the most powerful predictor of longevity. Together with your lower body strength, they will tell the story of your future. What is VO2 max? Oxygen consumed in milliliters per kilogram per minute. Strongest predictor of longevity, alongside lower body strength. VO2 Max and muscle mass peaks typically at age 25, with studies suggesting an average annual reduction of about 1% after. Increasing your VO2 max can significantly increase your longevity. It can reduce all-cause mortality by 10-25%. Just going from low to above-average fitness levels can reduce mortality risk by 60-70% over a decade. The 3 Steps to Improve Cardio Fitness 1. Long slow aerobic exercise Walking, hiking, biking, swimming. Work just below threshold (can talk, slightly breathy). 80% of the time will be spent here. 20% should be spent doing HIIT or strength training. 2. High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) 10-15% improvement in 5-10 weeks 15–30 seconds of breathless effort (sprinting effect). Breathless in 30 seconds or less. 3. Strength training Improves muscle, may enhance your body composition or weight Improving both your fitness (oxygen delivery and use) and reducing weight means your ml/kg/min will go up as you consume more oxygen with less body weight .. and even if you don't lose weight your muscle is metabolically active and consumes oxygen while fat doesn't. So let's come back to the value of VO2 for reducing all cause mortality. A modest increase of 3.5 ml/kg/min (1 MET) is all it takes to reduce all-cause mortality by up to 25%. How do you know your Cardio Fitness is improving? Short of getting a VO2 max test, you can measure in other ways: Resting heart rate – first thing in morning Recovery heart rate at end of interval and one minute later One-mile walk test Why Muscle Still Matters? More muscle = higher oxygen demand → better VO2 Max. Fat mass doesn't contribute to oxygen use. Muscle quality declines with age → requires smarter training, especially during menopause.

I'm Dr. Daniel Cameron, and today I'm addressing a question I often see in my practice: What are the risk factors for chronic Lyme disease?Chronic Lyme SymptomsSome patients do not fully recover from Lyme disease. They experience a broad range of symptoms, including ongoing fatigue, pain, sleep problems, neurologic changes, emotional strain, and disruption of daily life. These challenges can affect school, parenting, and work responsibilities.Common chronic Lyme manifestations include:Musculoskeletal: chronic arthritis, muscle pain, stiffness, and tendon inflammation.Neurologic and psychiatric: brain fog, memory issues, neuropathy, sensory changes, depression, irritability, mood swings, and PANS. Post-treatment Lyme disease syndrome (PTLDS) is often debated, but I view it as a potential ongoing infection rather than simply a syndrome.Cardiovascular/dysautonomia: POTS, Lyme carditis, arrhythmias, chest pain, and dizziness.Other manifestations: sensory overload (light, sound, heat, cold, or smell sensitivity), sometimes related to dysautonomic issues.Risk Factors for Chronic Lyme DiseaseWhile formal assessments are ongoing, in my practice I see several consistent contributors:Severe initial infection such as neurologic Lyme meningitis or carditis.Treatment delays, sometimes months or years.Early systemic involvement at onset—widespread fatigue, pain, neurological symptoms, or functional loss.Co-infections such as Babesia and other tick-borne pathogens.Reinfections and relapses, which can increase the likelihood of chronic complications.Key Takeaways for CliniciansScreen patients carefully for these risk factors.Monitor for co-infections, especially in high-risk or relapsing patients.Do not dismiss persistent symptoms, even if a formal diagnosis has not yet been established.Advice for PatientsSeek early treatment—timing matters.If symptoms persist, pursue a second opinion or find a physician experienced in managing chronic manifestations of Lyme disease.Watch for co-infections, especially Babesia, which may complicate recovery and even mimic other conditions (e.g., menopause).Advocate for comprehensive care for yourself and your family.Thank you for joining me. Please leave your questions and comments below—I read them all and respond where I can.

About the Guest(s): Dr. Kristin Hieshetter is a dedicated specialist in functional health and a passionate podcast host of Functional Health Radio. Known for her focus on holistic health and wellness, Dr. Hieshetter is deeply invested in raising awareness about the potential dangers lurking in everyday products, especially those purported to be healthy alternatives. Her insightful discussions aim to educate listeners, encouraging them to make healthier choices and reduce toxins in their lives. Dr. Hieshetter's expertise is informed by years of practice and collaboration with other healthcare professionals. Episode Summary: Join Dr. Kristin Hieshetter in this intriguing episode of Functional Health Radio as she delves into the world of artificial sweeteners, specifically erythritol. This episode is interwoven with gratitude and the importance of making informed health decisions. Dr. Hieshetter explores erythritol's potential health risks and provides listeners with essential information to navigate the complex landscape of sweeteners. This discussion is particularly critical for those with predispositions to cardiovascular diseases. In this episode, Dr. Hieshetter discusses erythritol's implications on health, backed by recent studies such as the one from Nature and Medicine in March 2023. She explains how erythritol can enhance the risk of major cardiovascular events, highlighting a 150% increase in overall mortality risk linked to the artificial sweetener, with pronounced concerns for heart attack, stroke, and cancer. Dr. Hieshetter underscores the importance of identifying and avoiding erythritol in various products to maintain optimal health. Key Takeaways: Erythritol and Cardiovascular Risks: Recent studies indicate a strong association between erythritol intake and increased risks of heart attack and stroke, primarily due to its impact on blood clots and platelet activity. Mortality and Long-Term Health Impact: A 150% increased overall mortality risk is associated with erythritol consumption, with significant implications for cardiovascular diseases and stroke. Natural vs. Artificial Erythritol: While erythritol occurs naturally in certain fruits and foods, the concentrated form used as an artificial sweetener poses substantial health risks. Consumer Awareness is Key: Erythritol often lurks in sugar-free and keto-friendly foods; understanding this can help individuals avoid unintended health risks. Practical Tips for Healthier Choices: Check product labels and stay informed about the ingredients in seemingly "healthy" food options, particularly those targeting specific diets like keto and paleo. Notable Quotes: "I'm especially thankful for all the listeners; I hope that you guys are getting healthier each week." "Erythritol is no joke…it enhances platelet activity and thrombosis." "The risk of myocardial infarct and stroke is huge with erythritol." "You double your risk of stroke if you are using erythritol." "When erythritol occurs naturally in fruits and fermented foods, is it as deadly? No." Resources: Recent Studies: Nature and Medicine: "The Artificial Sweetener Erythritol and Cardiovascular Event Risk," March 2023. Nutrients Journal: "Serum Erythritol and Risk of Overall and Cause Specific Mortality in a Cohort of Men," September 2024. Listeners are encouraged to explore these topics further for a deeper understanding of the impact erythritol may have on health.

You have to go back and think, now, why do I do it that way?” Rapid Responses: Name one therapist that has been influential in your career. “Oh, that's an easy one. Her name is Mary Chrisman. She was the therapist that I went to at the hospital when the other therapist would not answer my questions. And she's a friend even to today… You know you work in acute care when… “When you can manage. I'm gonna say acute illness, but you know, ill patients who need specialist, very specialized care. And that you can manage the, the really sick patients and the not so sick. Yeah. And you know, you're good at vital signs and ECG and ventilators and all the machinery that you see in acute care. Yeah. So, I guess that's my answer.”

This week we lost one of the true 'nice people' in pediatric cardiology - Dr. Richard J. Golinko who died at the age of 95. Dr. Golinko led the Mount Sinai Pediatric Cardiology Program for many years. He established many of the programs at Sinai that are now fundamental to the program and the care of children with congenital heart disease in the tri-state region. To honor Dr. Golinko's memory, we stretch back over 40 years to review a paper he co-wrote with Dr. Rubin Cooper on balloon angioplasty of aortic coarctation. We speak with Dr. Cooper, the work's first author about the work as well as his remembrances of the man, Dr. Golinko. Also joining us this week is Dr. Anthony Rossi of Nicklaus Children's Hospital and Dr. Rica Arnon of Mount Sinai to share their individual remembrances of this wonderful and warm leader. doi: 10.1161/01.cir.70.5.903
In the July 2025 episode of Critical Decisions in Emergency Medicine, Drs. Danya Khoujah and Wendy Chang discuss cardiovascular disorders in the emergency department observation unit and ectopic pregnancy presentations. As always, you'll also hear about the hot topics covered in the regular features, including chest pain in a health young adult in The Critical ECG, periosteal reaction in a newborn in Clinical Pediatrics, lunate dislocation in Critical Cases in Orthopedics and Trauma, intrapleural anesthesia in The Critical Procedure, phenobarbital for alcohol withdrawal syndrome in The LLSA Literature Review, a patient with acute renal failure in The Critical Image, suzetrigine in The Drug Box, and metaldehyde toxicity in The Tox Box.
A large observational study found small but potentially meaningful differences in cardiovascular safety among sulfonylureas compared to DPP-4 inhibitors in type 2 diabetes, with glipizide showing a statistically higher risk of MACE. A separate study revealed that over half of advanced-stage lung and colorectal cancer cases involved missed diagnostic opportunities, highlighting systemic delays in workups and follow-up. Finally, the EchoNext deep learning model accurately predicted structural heart disease from ECG data alone, outperforming cardiologists and showing potential for scalable, cost-effective screening. These findings underscore the importance of individualized treatment, earlier cancer detection, and AI-enabled cardiac diagnostics.
