Send me a text! I'd LOVE to hear your feedback on this episode!My special guest today is Dr. William Davis.  He is a cardiologist and New York Times #1 bestselling author of the Wheat Belly book series. He is Medical Director and founder of the Undoctored program including the Undoctored Inner Circle. He is Chief Medical Officer and co-founder of Realize Therapeutics Corp. that is developing innovative solutions for the disrupted human microbiome and author of the book Super Gut.Get ready to have your understanding of cholesterol and heart disease challenged. Cardiologist Dr. William Davis, bestselling author of the Wheat Belly series, joins us to expose the fundamental flaws in how modern medicine approaches heart health.Dr. Davis reveals why the conventional focus on total cholesterol and LDL is dangerously outdated. These measurements are crude approximations developed in the 1960s that fail to identify the real culprits behind heart disease. Instead, he explains why small dense LDL particles and triglyceride levels are far more meaningful indicators, and why coronary calcium scores provide the most direct evidence of actual heart disease risk.What's truly eye-opening is learning what causes these dangerous small LDL particles. Contrary to popular belief, it's not fatty foods like eggs or butter, but rather grains and sugars. The amylopectin A carbohydrate in wheat (even "healthy" whole grains) triggers small LDL formation more effectively than table sugar. This revelation explains why so many people following conventional "heart-healthy" low-fat, high-grain diets continue developing heart disease.Beyond diet, Dr. Davis delves into how nutrient deficiencies common in modern life—particularly vitamin D, magnesium, iodine, and omega-3 fatty acids—contribute significantly to heart disease risk. He also explores the critical role of gut health, explaining how Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO) affects approximately half the North American population and drives inflammation, insulin resistance, and heart disease.Perhaps most importantly, Dr. Davis empowers listeners with actionable knowledge about how to genuinely protect heart health without relying on statins, which he demonstrates provide minimal benefit while increasing diabetes risk. If you're concerned about heart health or have been told ySupport the showPlease rate & review my podcast with a few kind words on Apple or Spotify.

Welcome to the first episode in a five-part series on self-silencing and its profound effect on women's health. I'm Dr. Brendan McCarthy, Chief Medical Officer at Protea Medical Center, and in this episode, I break down how self-silencing — the learned suppression of one's needs, emotions, and voice — directly influences weight gain, hormone disruption, autoimmunity, cardiovascular risk, and more. This is a deeply personal and evidence-backed conversation rooted in decades of clinical experience and medical research. I discuss real patient patterns, the emotional layers behind common health complaints, and why this silent epidemic deserves more space in medicine. If you or someone you love has ever struggled with feeling unheard, unseen, or overwhelmed by caretaking roles, this is for you.   Citations: 13] Jakubowski, K.

Dr. George Sledge, Executive VP and Chief Medical Officer of Caris Life Sciences, is using advanced molecular testing, including DNA, RNA, and protein analysis, to identify specific mutations and characteristics of a patient's tumor, allowing for more personalized and targeted treatment. The company is developing liquid biopsies to detect cancer early, identify minimal residual disease, and assess the potential for future cancer development. Caris has a database of over half a million patients whose tumors have undergone next-generation sequencing, allowing them to draw increasingly accurate conclusions. The future of precision oncology is expected to involve broader and earlier use of next-generation sequencing as the cost of the test continues to decrease significantly. George explains, "Caris Life Sciences is a molecular diagnostics company. Patients and their physicians send us tumor samples that can be obtained either from the primary tissue or from a distant recurrent site. When they come to us, we do several things. We look at DNA, what's called whole exome. We look at RNA, what's called whole transcriptome. We also frequently look at the protein level at immunohistochemistry, looking at slides that have been stained to look for particular molecular lesions that may be important from a treatment standpoint. Based on all of these, we're able to provide patients with information about which drugs represent the most appropriate treatment for their disease. This, of course, allows you to go to a drug that hopefully will be less toxic and more effective for your particular disease."  "When we look at the very specific mutations that manifest themselves at the level of either DNA or RNA, this requires fairly high technology, what's called next-generation sequencing, which allows us to pick up all these individual mutations that make up a particular patient's cancer. And every patient's cancer is different. Every patient's cancer involves different combinations of mutations that result in different responses to different treatments." #CarisLifeSciences #CancerResearch #PrecisionMedicine #RealWorldData #AccestoCare #HealthEquity #NextGenerationSequencing #NGS #LiquidBiopsy #ClinicoGenomic #Biomarkers #PanCancer carislifesciences.com Download the transcript here

Newt talks with Jonathan Dickinson, CEO and José Inzunza, Chief Medical Officer, Co-Founders of Ambio Life Sciences, a global leader in integrative Ibogaine treatment. They discuss the potential of Ibogaine as a therapy for post-traumatic stress disorder, opioid addiction, and depression. Ibogaine is classified as a Schedule I controlled substance by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency and is primarily administered in treatment facilities outside the U.S., such as in Mexico and Canada. They talk about their experiences administering Ibogaine and insights into its therapeutic effects, particularly the ability to mitigate opioid withdrawal symptoms and improve neurological health. They also highlight the importance of patient preparation and the need for ongoing support post-treatment to prevent relapse. Ambio Life Sciences collaborated with Stanford University and their pioneering clinical program for neurodegenerative diseases to study conditions like Parkinson's and multiple sclerosis. Their discussion underscores Ibogaine's potential to revolutionize addiction treatment and neurological health.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
