The future of Disease Care medicine is described as Predictive, Preventive, Personalized, Participatory, and Precision.  But Dr. Prather says all of those elements are already available in the Structure-Function Health Care that he practices.  In this episode, find out:—The FDA distinction between Disease Care Medicine and Structure-Function Health Care.—Why Dr. Prather says that "Structure-Function has always had the 5 P's" which are "integral" to this philosophy of care.—How Structure-Function Health Care is best known for its preventative benefits, but should also be better known for its necessity after a disease has already developed. —How the functional lab tests at Holistic Integration can "pick up on problems way before they come", which can then be prevented.—Why Dr. Prather cautions against drastic action because of genetic tests that show a tendency of a patient to develop a disease in the future. —The amazing story of a patient during the AIDS crisis who developed all the symptoms of AIDS after receiving what turned out to be a false HIV-positive test, but the symptoms disappeared after the second (and correct) negative test came back. —How Dr. Prather encouragingly says that "everything can be changed, everything can be helped, and everything can be prevented".  And why his experience with patients causes him to conclude that "having the right attitude makes all the difference in the world". —The importance of keeping the body structurally-aligned, as well as functionally-aligned, for the prevention of future issues.  And how Dr. Prather sees that 90% of people no longer fit the "normal" pattern of structural alignment due to changes that he never witnessed at the start of his career 40 years ago.—The reason Dr. Prather says anti-Cholesterol statin drugs have done "more harm than good".  And why using Cholesterol drugs as a preventative for future Cardiovascular Disease has failed. —Why Dr. Prather says that his three foundational lab tests (The Prather Profile Bloodwork, a Hair Analysis, and a stool kit) are usually all he needs to get a patient healthy before the need for "fancy" testing. http://www.TheVoiceOfHealthRadio.com

Send us a textOverview and alternative interpretation to the mainstream view on how dietary fat and cholesterol relate to cardiovascular disease.Episode Summary: Tucker Goodrich is an engineer by training who has become a prominent independent researcher and blogger on nutrition and metabolic health, focusing on the harms of seed oils and polyunsaturated fats.About the guest: Nick Jikomes and Tucker Goodrich explore atherosclerosis and heart disease, critiquing the standard model that blames high LDL cholesterol while highlighting how oxidized LDL—driven by dietary linoleic acid from seed oils—plays a key role in plaque formation and inflammation; they discuss historical shifts in heart disease rates, genetic factors like familial hypercholesterolemia, the limitations of animal studies, and why reducing seed oil intake could prevent issues more effectively than just lowering cholesterol.Discussion Points:Atherosclerosis involves plaque buildup in arteries, often leading to heart attacks, but plaques contain oxidized fats and cholesterol, not just native cholesterol.Dietary cholesterol has little impact on blood levels or heart disease in humans, unlike in rabbits used in many studies.High LDL may not be inherently bad; oxidized LDL from polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) like linoleic acid causes macrophages to overeat and form harmful foam cells.Familial hypercholesterolemia patients only show higher heart disease rates in modern, industrial diets high in seed oils, not historically.Populations like the Kitavans and Tsimané have high apoB but no heart disease on traditional diets low in industrial foods.Fried foods are oxidized seed oils, explaining why they're unhealthy despite omega-6 fats being labeled "heart-healthy."Omega-3 fats can displace omega-6 in cells, reducing oxidation risk.Reference Papers:Witztum & Steinberg (1991)Boren et al. (2022)Related episode:Support the showAffiliates: Seed Oil Scout: Find restaurants with seed oil-free options, scan food products to see what they're hiding, with this easy-to-use mobile app. AquaTru: Reverse osmosis water filters.

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.

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.

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.

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.    Lee, D.C., Pate, R.R., Lavie, C.J., Sui, X., Church, T.S., & Blair, S.N.
