This week, Dr. Prather gives a preview of his upcoming free seminar about the Holistic Heart program at Holistic Integration. In this episode, we talk about:—The philosophy behind Holistic Heart and how it integrates Structure-Function Care and the medical model for the best patient outcomes.—How our Holistic Heart program is designed to give our patients safe, non-invasive, and medically-sound cardiac care that is more than just stents and statins. —The unique diagnostic tests Dr. Prather orders for patients that most cardiologists do not do. —The shocking study from the National Institutes of Health study that revealed stents and bypass surgeries are NOT effective for long-term heart health outcomes. —The External CounterPulsation (ECP) Therapy developed 60 years ago by Harvard and how it duplicates 5 years of marathon training for the heart in just 7 weeks. And the touching story of how Dr. Prather came to bring this treatment into his office.—How Magnesium for men and Potassium for women are "absolutely critical" for those situations where a person dies suddenly and unexpectedly from a heart attack. —Why high Cholesterol is NOT the underlying problem, but an indicator of Cardiovascular Disease. And why Dr. Prather describes Cholesterol as the firefighters showing up to put out the fire. —How Chiropractic care helps with the Vagus Nerve, POTS (Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome), and can play a big role for atrial fibrillation (AFib). Plus, the Acupuncture points that can settle down the EKG of a patient while they are having a heart attack.—The Cardiac C-Reactive Protein Blood Test that is the biggest indicator of having a heart attack. And how Cardiologists are "amazed" by how Dr. Prather can quickly and effectively get positive changes in this measurement.—How you can get our Autonomic Nervous System Test for just $49 (normally a $195 value) by attending our next free Holistic Heart seminar with Dr. Prather on Wednesday, July 30th at 6:30 p.m.http://www.TheVoiceOfHealthRadio.com

How can we better understand the developmental nature of cardiovascular disease across the life course and improve the health of people who experience chronic early life stress? In this episode Dr. Nathaniel Jenkins (University of Iowa) interviews lead author Dr. Annemarie Wentzel (North-West University, South African Medical Research Council Unit for Hypertension and Cardiovascular Disease) and expert Dr. Romain Harmancey (The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston) about the study by Wentzel et al. which found that stress, expressed as a cumulative allostatic load score, impacted the microvasculature, macrovasculature, and central cardiac structure and function on a preclinical level in otherwise healthy emerging adults. The authors also found that the composite allostatic load score was particularly accurate in predicting masked hypertension and pre-diabetes in their study population. The composite allostatic load score incorporates multiple physiological biomarker systems and can offer clinicians an additional tool to use in addressing root causes of chronic stress.

In this episode of Speaking of Mol Bio, Dr. Beth Webb takes us deep into the world of platelets, often misunderstood components of blood that punch far above their weight in both physiological and pathological processes. As a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Leeds, Dr. Webb explores how endothelial signals influence platelet activity, and how these anucleate cell fragments play roles not only in clotting, but also in immune responses, inflammation, and diseases like cardiovascular disorders and COVID-19.Beth unpacks the technical challenges of isolating and analyzing platelets—particularly in RNA sequencing and qPCR—while stressing the importance of sample purity and the presence of platelet subpopulations. The conversation also touches on the hope of personalized medicine through platelet-based diagnostics and tailored antiplatelet therapies.Beyond the lab, Dr. Webb is an active science communicator, sharing tips on engaging broader audiences through social media, blogs, and video. She emphasizes the importance of resilience, creativity, and starting small when communicating science.

Unveiling Myocardial Bridges: A Hidden Cause of Heart Disease with Jeff Holden, a patient activist, author of “Imperfect Heart: Stories of Myocardial Bridges,” and host of the “Imperfect Heart” podcast. Jeff shares his harrowing personal journey with myocardial bridges, a congenital heart condition often overlooked by the medical community. Despite experiencing unexplained cardiac symptoms and undergoing multiple medical tests, Jeff was only diagnosed after a provocative test at Stanford revealed severe vasospasms and a myocardial bridge. Jeff emphasizes the importance of awareness and proper diagnosis of this condition, which can mimic common cardiovascular diseases but requires an entirely different treatment approach. The discussion highlights the need for increased recognition among primary care physicians and cardiologists, the diagnostic challenges, and the impact of this often-ignored condition on patients' lives. This episode aims to educate listeners and promote better understanding and management of myocardial bridges in the medical community.

This episode reveals how fasting is the most powerful tool for preventing cardiovascular disease and reversing metabolic dysfunction that affects 88% of Americans. Dr. Scott and Tommy explain why fasting goes far beyond weight loss to address the root cause of heart disease: insulin resistance and dangerous blood sugar variability. Discover how consistent fasting protocols can dramatically reduce your risk when every 1% increase in A1C levels raises heart problems by 12%, major cardiovascular events by 8%, and heart-related kidney issues by 17%. Learn why diabetics with the highest blood sugar swings face 2.5 times higher heart disease risk - and how fasting flattens these dangerous glucose spikes. The hosts break down how fasting reverses metabolic syndrome (affecting 25% of the population) and helps the 70-80 million undiagnosed pre-diabetics who have normal A1C but dangerously high fasting insulin levels. Understand how fasting prevents the "rust on a bumper" effect of cardiovascular disease that develops slowly over decades. Get specific fasting strategies for reducing glycemic variability, controlling insulin spikes, and using intermittent fasting as cardiovascular protection. This episode reveals why monitoring fasting insulin during your fasting journey is more important than cholesterol panels, and how consistent fasting protocols reverse the inflammatory cascade leading to heart disease, stroke, and metabolic syndrome. Essential for anyone using fasting to prevent cardiovascular disease and optimize metabolic health for life.

Send us a textI've trained for endurance in all kinds of ways—some smart, some not-so-much. This week, I'm sharing how I built a jogging routine that actually works with my life, not against it. Whether I'm prepping for a thru-hike or squeezing in a jog before the day takes over, I've learned that movement can be reshaped to meet you exactly where you are.If you've ever wanted to jog but felt too slow, too tired, or too unsure of where to begin, I've been there. I'm bringing you stories from the trail, from the road, and from those early days when two miles felt like an event. I'll also share the strategy that kept me from falling off track—especially when motivation faded—and what I've learned from my own missteps (literally).This one's for the folks who want more energy without spending all day chasing it. If you've got a pair of shoes and a few spare minutes, you're already closer than you think. Meet me in this episode, and let's explore what a jogging practice can become when you let go of the noise and start with the smallest, clearest step.Quote of the week:“I run because it's so symbolic of life. You have to drive yourself to overcome the obstacles. You might feel that you can't. But then you find your inner strength, and realize you're capable of so much more than you thought.” —Arthur BlankRESEARCH CITATIONS1.

American healthcare is in crisis—but what if we could change the system by preventing disease before it starts?In this episode of the a16z Podcast, general partner Vijay Pande sits down with Dr. Eric Topol, founder and director of the Scripps Research Translational Institute and one of the most cited researchers in medicine, to explore the cutting edge of preventive healthcare and longevity science.Drawing from his new book Super Agers: An Evidence-Based Path to Longevity, Topol breaks down why understanding the biology of aging—not reversing it—is the key to preventing the “Big Three” age-related diseases: cancer, cardiovascular disease, and neurodegenerative conditions. The conversation spans AI-powered risk prediction, organ clocks, polygenic risk scores, GLP-1s, and the cultural and economic shifts required to move from a “sick care” system to one rooted in precision prevention and extended healthspan.If you've ever wondered how data, personalized medicine, and AI can add seven healthy years to your life—and what it will take to bring those benefits to everyone—this episode is for you.

My guest is Dr. Staci Whitman, DMD, a board-certified functional dentist for kids and adults. We discuss the critical importance of oral care and the oral microbiome for brain and bodily health. We examine the negative effects of common oral care product ingredients such as alcohol, astringents, and bleaches. We also explore the history and real impact of fluoridated drinking water on oral, bone, and systemic health. Then we discuss healthy, lesser-known solutions for bad breath, canker sores, cavities, and teeth whitening. We cover how teeth can be made to repair their own cavities and the connection between oral health and cardiovascular health, male and female fertility, dementia, and cancer. This episode goes far beyond the best approaches to brushing and flossing and will be a valuable resource for anyone seeking to improve their oral health and appearance at any age.
