Heart disease is the number one killer. But what if you could know your risk factors far in advance? Some cutting-edge tests are changing the game in cardiovascular health, and they're more accessible than you might think.  In this episode, Dr. Joel Kahn sheds light on the critical role of early detection and intervention in preventing heart disease. Dr. Kahn, a leading cardiologist, emphasizes the significance of identifying atherosclerosis, the primary culprit behind heart disease, through advanced technology scans before you start feeling any symptoms.  Listen to this episode and start preventing rather than lamenting your heart health! Episode Notes Dr. Joel Kahn stresses that even individuals with seemingly healthy lifestyles can have significant plaque buildup in their arteries, highlighting the importance of regular screenings.  Benefits of Coronary Artery Calcium Scans The Coronary Artery Calcium (CAC) scan is a valuable tool for detecting plaque in the arteries, providing crucial insights into cardiovascular health. This scan is recommended for individuals at risk of heart disease, such as those with a family history of high cholesterol. Early detection through the CAC scan can help in developing preventive strategies and maintaining heart health. Detect Heart Disease Early Early detection of heart disease is crucial in preventing its potentially fatal consequences. Tools like the CAC scan and AI-assisted CT scans provide detailed information about cardiovascular health, enabling you to take proactive steps towards maintaining a healthy heart. Regular screening and early intervention can significantly improve cardiovascular health outcomes. Prevent Atherosclerosis Atherosclerosis, the buildup of plaque in arteries, is a significant factor in heart disease and other health issues like erectile dysfunction. Regular screening, including the CAC scan, can help prevent the progression of atherosclerosis. By addressing risk factors and maintaining a healthy lifestyle, you can reduce your chances of developing heart disease.

Good morning, everyone! In today's episode, I shared insights from a recent workshop with Brittany and Dr. Joel Kahn in the Healing Kitchen. We discussed heart health, focusing on high cholesterol and blood sugars. If you're interested in joining our community, visit DrMarvis.com and click on Healing Kitchen. We have live experts every month, and the price will be going up next month, so now is the best time to join. Our main topic today was the relationship between high blood sugars and cholesterol. High blood sugars, often seen in diabetes and prediabetes, can affect cholesterol levels and lipid metabolism, leading to atherosclerosis. I explained how insulin resistance, elevated triglycerides, glycation of lipoproteins, inflammation, and endothelial dysfunction contribute to this process. Dr. Kahn emphasized the importance of looking at the whole person, including genetics, lifestyle, and additional tests like carotid ultrasounds and coronary artery calcium scores. We also discussed the potential risks of certain supplements like plant sterols. I shared a personal anecdote about how stress can affect blood sugar levels, highlighting the importance of managing stress, diet, exercise, and sleep to improve overall health. In conclusion, high blood sugars can elevate cholesterol and increase inflammation, so it's crucial to pay attention to diet and lifestyle.

In our final episode of the "Doctors Gone Rogue" series, we're paying tribute to a true legend in the field of holistic medicine. Today, we honor the remarkable legacy of Dr. John McDougall, who passed away last month. I'm also excited to feature the incredible work of Dr. Joel Kahn, known as "America's Healthy Heart Doc." Both are plant-based doctors who believe in food as medicine. First up, let's talk about Dr. Joel Kahn. Dr. Kahn transitioned from traditional cardiology to holistic practices after experiencing the profound benefits of a plant-based vegan diet himself. Believing in the power of nutrition for heart health, he now focuses on non-traditional diagnostic tools and prevention tactics. This interview feels more like a night at the Laugh Factory than a conversation with a cardiologist! Dr. Kahn's blend of facts and humor had us in stitches as we covered topics like nutrition, longevity, sex, stress, and “how not to die!” Next, we turn our attention to the beloved Dr. John McDougall. A physician and nutrition expert, Dr. McDougall dedicated his life to teaching the power of a whole-food, starch-based diet in preventing and reversing chronic diseases. His journey began after a massive stroke at age 18, which led him to embrace holistic, plant-based nutrition as a path to true healing. Dr. McDougall's legacy is monumental. He founded the renowned McDougall Program, authored best-selling books, and passionately advocated for dietary therapy as a cornerstone of health. His impact on the medical community and the lives of countless patients is immeasurable. On June 25th, Dr. McDougall's daughter, Heather McDougall, announced his passing. Dr. McDougall leaves behind quite the legacy, and we re-play this interview to honor that legacy today. So, let's dive into this special episode, the final episode of the "Doctors Gone Rogue" series, honoring the legacies of Dr. Joel Kahn and Dr. John McDougall. These two plant-based doctors are living proof of the healing power of nutrition. They have bucked the traditional route of medicine and truly embody the notion that food heals.

Cleerly Health is revolutionizing heart diagnostics with their software, which analyzes coronary CT angiograms (CCTA) using AI to detect and evaluate heart plaque. Not all plaque is equal, and Cleerly Health focuses on identifying non-calcified or "soft" plaques, which are the most dangerous and most likely to be reversible.  This cutting-edge technology has been employed hundreds of times at the Kahn Center, offering a new paradigm in heart health assessment and treatment.

Dr. Joel Kahn emphasizes the importance of staying hydrated during these hot summer months and suggests adding trace mineral drops to your glass or stainless steel water bottle. Get your trace minerals here. In this week's "pea-cast," Dr. Kahn shares intriguing case studies from the Kahn Center, highlighting two common supplements for optimal health: Arterosil and Homocysteine Supreme. He also discusses a study on spirulina in patients hospitalized with Covid-19 and offers a 20% discount at EnergyBits with the code DrKahn.  The main topic revisits Dr. Kahn's appearance on the Joe Rogan Experience in 2018 (episode 1175), where he discussed TMAO content in fish. Recent data from the Cleveland Clinic shows that some fish, such as those found in fish sticks (cod and haddock) and wild-caught salmon, can be high in TMAO, raising blood levels and increasing the risk of the ill effects of high TMAO levels. Many, including Dr. Kahn and his wife, choose to avoid fish altogether.
