This week on Health Matters, as we continue to observe Heart Month, we will explore the role that genetics play in heart health.Understanding your family history of cardiovascular health is essential. In fact, about 30% of heart disease can be linked to family history. We speak with Dr. Jessica Hennessy, a clinical cardiac electrophysiologist and cardiogenetics expert at NewYork-Presbyterian and Columbia to help break down which heart conditions and risk factors may be inherited. She provides valuable insight on effectively managing heart health, including the importance of lifestyle modifications in preventing heart disease, including for individuals with a genetic predisposition. She also explains who should get genetic testing and what that process looks like.___ Dr. Jessica Hennessey specializes in Cardiac Electrophysiology, with a special focus on Sports & Exercise Cardiology. She practices primarily in New York, NY, and is affiliated with NewYork-Presbyterian/Columbia University Irving Medical Center.

I believe this is the most important podcast episode ever done in history! Big words for sure...now let me back them up Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn is a world renowned cardiologist who was a surgeon at the famed Cleveland Clinic, the top Heart Hospital in the world.  He is the author of the best selling book Prevent & Reverse Heart Disease and was also prominently featured in the groundbreaking documentary Forks Over Knives.  His pioneering work with Coronary Artery Disease has saved countless lives. We explore: Who has heart disease? What percentage of people? Why in his 9th decade of life does Dr. Esselstyn continue to talk about eradicating or slowing the progression of heart disease. What's is the mission that's still driving him. When he speaks of Preventing and Reversing Heart Disease is he primarily speaking about Coronary Artery Disease or all Heart Disease? The internet is filled with Drs & others promoting Keto and low Carb Diets and they swear by their research. How do we explain the claimed successes of those diets...or are they really successful? Why are ALL oils bad, especially for those with coronary artery disease?  Are there any oils that are good for those that don't have heart disease? Should everyone have a Calcium Score and when should they be alarmed? How important is it to lower LDL and raise HDL? What does he think of Statins? Why should there never be a reason to develop heart disease. At what point should someone have an angiogram and stents placed or bypass surgery? How does someone track their progress after a positive stress test and starting a Whole Food plant -based diet Why a Whole Food Plant Based Diet is Different than a Vegan diet Why do leafy greens eaten 6x a day help to mitigate or reverse further coronary artery disease? Which are the best greens to eat? Which are the next best foods after greens? How about Nightshades? Good or Bad? Can this diet prevent event the most serious heart blockages and circumvent even a quadruple bypass? How much fat is recommended for those with coronary artery disease and how much of that in saturated fat?  Is all saturated fat equal? What three Whole Foods are bad for Coronary Artery Disease patients?  How about sweeteners?

In this podcast, Dr. Valentin Fuster discusses a groundbreaking study comparing photon counting detector (PCD) CT technology with traditional EIDCT for diagnosing coronary artery disease. The research suggests that PCDCT offers superior specificity and diagnostic accuracy, potentially replacing older methods, and could revolutionize cardiac imaging by reducing the need for invasive procedures and improving patient outcomes.

Darshan H. Brahmbhatt, Podcast Editor of JACC: Advances, discusses a recently published original research paper on Preventive Lipid-Lowering Therapy and Interactions With Health Care in Patients Who Develop Premature Coronary Artery Disease.

The cholesterol conundrum: Nutritionist Leyla Muedin discusses recent research suggesting that HDL, or 'good' cholesterol, may protect against brain atrophy and dementia. The study from UT Southwestern Medical Center, published in the Journal of Clinical Medicine, found that higher concentrations of small particle HDL are linked to better cognitive function and greater gray matter volume. Leyla emphasizes the importance of understanding cholesterol's role beyond just heart health and challenges common misconceptions. She also highlights the benefits of dietary fats and criticizes outdated medical advice that promotes low-fat diets. This episode encourages a more nuanced view of cholesterol and its significant impact on overall health.

Commentary by Dr.  Jian'an Wang.

In this episode of Longevity Roadmap, Buck Joffrey presents a case study of a 70-year-old patient with optimal metabolic health but elevated LDL and APOB levels, emphasizing the importance of aggressive lipid management in preventing coronary artery disease.

When I type the words coronary artery disease I bet that you picture angiograms with stenotic lesions—blockages in colloquial language. Indeed a high grade plaque from atherosclerosis in the inside of a coronary artery can limit flow to the heart muscle. But. But. Not as much as you think. You know why? Because there is something called the coronary microcirculation. Before blood gets to the beating heart muscle it has to go through small blood vessels. So small that you can't see them. A study in the NEJM—on one patient—elegantly shows the ability of the microcirculation to autoregulate blood flow in the face of increasing degrees of obstruction in large coronary vessels. We've all seen patients who have severe flow-limiting proximal stenoses, which create little to no angina. A likely reason is the ability of the microcirculation to dilate and improve blood flow—at least at rest or minimal exertion. My friend Venk Murthy explains this elegant study. I learned a bunch and likely you will too. We refer often to this figure from the paper. It would be useful to have it handy while you listen.

In 1995 he published his bench mark long-term nutritional research arresting and reversing coronary artery disease in severely ill patients. That same study was updated at 12 years and reviewed beyond twenty years in his book, Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease, making it one of the longest longitudinal studies of its type. In July of 2014 he reported the experience of 198 participants seriously ill with cardiovascular disease. During 3.7 years of follow up of the 89% adherent to the program, 99.4% avoided further major cardiac events.Dr. Esselstyn and his wife, Ann Crile Esselstyn, have followed a plant-based diet since 1984.

If you learned that radiologists looking at CT scans for the traditional signs of coronary artery disease catch only 20 percent of the people who actually have a high risk of a heart attack, and if you learned that there's a new AI-based test that can catch subtle signs of inflammation in the other 80 percent of patients—well, you'd probably want to get that test yourself, right? Harry's guests this week, Frank Cheng and Keith Channon, are from a UK-based company that has developed just such a test. Cheng is the company's CEO, and Channon is co-founder and chief medical officer. And under their leadership, Caristo has introduced a test called CariHeart that applies machine learning to the data in a three-dimensional CT scan of the heart. It looks for otherwise invisible signs of inflammation in the fat tissue around the major coronary arteries, and then it predicts the chances that the patient will suffer a heart attack in the next eight years. Doctors can use that information to decide whether a patient needs to take a cholesterol-lowering drug like a statin or an anti-inflammatory drug like colchicine. Caristo's test is being used on an experimental basis in the UK, and it hasn't yet been approved for use in the US. But it's a leading example of the way AI, put together with fundamental advances in our understanding of human biology, is really beginning to change the practice of medicine. Cheng and Channon say Caristo's test isn't intended to put cardiologists or radiologists out of work—it's designed to help them be more effective. And given that cardiovascular disease is the number one cause of death around the world, any technology that can help catch signs of coronary artery disease earlier could save a lot of lives.For a full transcript of this episode, please visit our episode page at http://www.glorikian.com/podcast Please rate and review The Harry Glorikian Show on Apple Podcasts or Spotify! Here's how to do that on Apple Podcasts:1. Open the Podcasts app on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac. 2. Navigate to The Harry Glorikian Show podcast.
