Welcome to my podcast. I am Doctor Warrick Bishop, and I want to help you to live as well as possible for as long as possible. I'm a practising cardiologist, best-selling author, keynote speaker, and the creator of The Healthy Heart Network. I have over 20 years as a specialist cardiologist and a private practice of over 10,000 patients. Dr. Warrick Bishop, a cardiologist, discusses women's heart health with guest Dr. Fiona Foe, highlighting the under-recognized risks and nuances for women in developing cardiovascular disease. They cover traditional risk factors such as cholesterol, blood pressure, and diabetes, emphasizing that these factors are often more problematic in women. Specific risk factors for women include adverse pregnancy outcomes, autoimmune diseases, breast cancer treatment implications, and mental health issues like depression and anxiety. They stress the importance of recognizing these risks, getting heart health checks, and being proactive in prevention. Dr. Bishop also mentions a virtual platform for easy access to calcium scoring for arterial imaging as a preventive measure against coronary artery disease.

ENCORE: This episode was first published in Sept. 2023.In 1998, a young Norwegian exercise physiologist found that a technique he had used to help Olympic athletes could help heart patients too. But his idea made doctors sweat. One famous cardiologist told him that if he used his technique in human heart attack patients, he "would kill them."Today's show looks at what happened when our researcher, Ulrik Wisløff, defied the experts — and built a career learning how high intensity interval training can help everyone from heart patients and ageing Baby Boomers, and possibly even Alzheimer's patients — but not in the way you might think!Today's guests are Ulrik Wisløff, Dorthe Stensvold and Atefe Tari.Here's a link to a rat on a treadmill photo.

This week, Bobbi Conner talks with MUSC's Dr. Kathleen McKinnon about lupus and increased cardiovascular risk.

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.

Who in the world would try to lower their cholesterol by eating an entire sleeve of Oreos every day for a month? Meet Nick Norwitz, PhD, an Oxford graduate and Harvard medical student who did just that—in an effort to test a hypothesis about cholesterol and metabolic health. After reversing a serious inflammatory condition with a ketogenic diet, Nick saw his LDL cholesterol spike. Instead of panicking, he turned to research—and self-experimentation—to better understand what those numbers really meant. In this episode of The Dr. Hyman Show, we explore: • The health crisis that led Nick to a ketogenic diet • Why his LDL cholesterol jumped—and what questions it raised • The Oreo experiment and what it did (and didn't) reveal • The nuance around LDL, metabolic health, and cardiovascular risk • What the science—and Nick's own experience—suggests about meat, veganism, and finding a diet that works Check out the episode to hear this fascinating conversation.  View Show Notes From This EpisodeGet Free Weekly Health Tips from Dr. Hymanhttps://drhyman.com/pages/picks?utm_campaign=shownotes&utm_medium=banner&utm_source=podcastSign Up for Dr. Hyman's Weekly Longevity Journalhttps://drhyman.com/pages/longevity?utm_campaign=shownotes&utm_medium=banner&utm_source=podcast

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.

Welcome to my podcast. I am Doctor Warrick Bishop, and I want to help you to live as well as possible for as long as possible. I'm a practising cardiologist, best-selling author, keynote speaker, and the creator of The Healthy Heart Network. I have over 20 years as a specialist cardiologist and a private practice of over 10,000 patients. In this podcast, Dr. Warrick Bishop discusses cardiovascular health, particularly focusing on women's heart health, with guest Dr. Fiona Foo, an interventional cardiologist. They highlight the alarming statistic that coronary heart disease is the second leading cause of death among women in Australia, often underrecognised compared to other health issues like breast cancer. The conversation covers traditional risk factors such as cholesterol, blood pressure, diabetes, and how some of these pose a greater risk for women. They also delve into sex-specific risk factors, including complications from pregnancy and autoimmune diseases, which can significantly increase cardiovascular risk.
