View the Show Notes Page for This Episode Become a Member to Receive Exclusive Content Sign Up to Receive Peter's Weekly Newsletter Ethan Weiss is a preventative cardiologist at UCSF, an entrepreneur-in-residence at Third Rock Ventures, where he is working on a project related to cardiometabolic disease, and a previous guest on The Drive. In this episode, Ethan compares and contrasts the diagnostic imaging tools, CAC (coronary artery calcium score) and CTA (CT angiography), used to image plaque—including the latest in CTA software—and how these tools inform our understanding of ASCVD risk and guide clinical decision-making. Ethan discusses the types of plaque that cause events and the data that make a case for optimal medical therapy over stenting outside of particular cases. He explains why high blood pressure is problematic and walks through the data from clinical trials testing aggressive treatment. He talks about the best way to actually measure blood pressure, why we shouldn't simply accept that blood pressure rises with age, and how he uses different pharmaceutical agents to treat hypertension. Additionally, Ethan explains our current, but limited, understanding of the role of metabolic health in ASCVD. He discusses the impact of fat storage capacity and the location of fat storage and explains how and why there is still a residual risk, even in people who have seemingly normal lipids, don't smoke, and have normal blood pressure. We discuss: Ethan's entrepreneurial work in the cardiometabolic disease space [4:30]; Calcium scans (CAC scores) and CT angiography (CTA), and how it informs us about ASCVD risk [6:00]; Peter's historical CAC scores, CTA results, and how one can be misled [10:45]; How Peter's CTA results prompted him to lower his apoB [14:45]; Calcium scans vs. CT angiogram (CTA) [21:15]; How Ethan makes clinical decisions based on CTA results and plaque burden, and the importance of starting treatment early to prevent ASCVD [28:15]; Improved methods of CTA to grade plaque lesions and how it's shaped medical decisions such as stenting [33:45]; Why Ethan favors optimal medical therapy over stenting outside of particular situations [41:45]; The need for FFR CTA, and the potential for medical therapy to eliminate ASCVD [54:00]; The fat attenuation index (FAI) and other ways to measure inflammation in a plaque [57:30]; Statins and exercise may increase the risk of calcification, but what does this mean for risk? [59:45]; The root cause of statin hesitation despite evidence that statins are a profoundly important intervention [1:05:30]; Importance of keeping blood pressure in check, defining what's normal, and whether we should just accept higher blood pressure with age [1:10:45]; Blood pressure variability, how to best measure it, and data suggesting the enormous impact of keeping blood pressure down [1:21:00]; Drugs for treating high blood pressure recommended by the ALLHAT trial [1:35:15]; What the SPRINT trial says about the aggressive treatment of hypertension, and the risks of such treatment [1:38:15]; Confirmatory results in the STEP trial for blood pressure, and how Ethan uses the various pharmacological agents to lower blood pressure in patients [1:43:15]; The role metabolic health in ASCVD: what we do and don't know [1:51:00]; The impact of fat storage capacity and the location of fat storage on metabolic health and coronary artery disease [1:56:15]; and More.

Anne and Matt discuss Sheila Gregoire’s popular book, “The Great Sex Rescue.” She and her co-authors provide some very good and helpful material but the negatives of the book outweigh the positives. This is one of the longer episodes ever...
I know from quite a few of you giving me input and feedback on social media, or via emails, that you feel conventional medicine is reactive and disease oriented and that little focus is put on trying to find and heal the underlying cause of an issue.I personally feel that much of that disappointment is justified and at the same time I feel deep gratitude for having the option to seek and get medical treatment in case of say, an accident or a horrible infection. I have deep respect for the medical professionals who work hard every day, often at a high price to their own physical and mental health, to help others.I do believe it is our system that needs an overhaul and I also believe that an ideal medical system integrates the approach of holistic medicine and what we call conventional medicine. Preventing disease and supporting optimal health in the first place and addressing health issues as needed with targeted medical interventions.Our guest today, Dr. Brooke Stuart is a holistic doctor in private practice, where she specializes in taking a holistic approach to mental health, physical health and high performance through a combination of holistic counseling and functional medicine. She is also the founder and president of Let Go & Grow International.According to the Institute for Functional Medicine, “Functional Medicine is a personalized, systems-oriented model that empowers patients and practitioners to achieve the highest expression of health by working in collaboration to address the underlying causes of disease.”Functional medicine uses the best of ancient practices and modern modalities and doctors, amongst other, recommend supplements, cutting edge technological devices and tests, as well as mindset techniques, diet, and lifestyle changes. Based on this, Dr. Brooke develops a personalized treatment plan for each patient. She also collaborates with conventional doctors regarding certain medications or tests when necessary. For Dr. Brooke, functional medicine is not in competition with other types of medicine. In this episode she will give us an overview of her practice and most successful approaches to healing the whole human.In this episode with Dr. Brooke, you'll discover:-What exactly is functional medicine?...04:15-Why we're conditioned to repress our "authentic self" and how to begin resetting this energetic balance...11:15-"Fake it til you make it" is a real phenomenon!...16:45-The pillars of resetting the mind and body in Dr. Brooke's practice...19:30-What is andropause and how men's hormones change as they age...26:44-What happens physiologically, specifically for females, when Vitamin C is injected into the body...33:20-Why you should let go of what's not working vs. trying yet another diet, protocol, etc. to cure your ills...37:00-How our perception of our food changes its effects on our body and health...42:30-How to invite empowering thought patterns regarding your food, environment, etc...47:30-A personal practice that elevates Dr. Brooke's life...51:10-And much more....Resources mentioned: Dr. Brooke's websiteLet Go & GrowBooks written by Dr. BrookeThe Biology of Belief by Dr. Bruce LiptonConnect with the guest:"The heart based practice is something that I'm in a unique position to appreciate where we're talking to these amazing people.

Today's Flashback Friday is from episode 141 published last December 28, 2009. During turbulent economic times, people can become their own worst enemy.

Prudent investing is a prerequisite to The American Dream of financial freedom. Learn from the mistakes of others rather than “the school of hard knocks.” Tune in to this episode of The Creating Wealth Show as Jason reveals 30 fatal mistakes you must avoid in order to achieve financial independence and investing success.

Debt! The conversation no one wants to have but nearly everyone is a part of. This week on IMPACT, host Meghan Walker welcomes back Mary Shores, a 2nd generation debt collector and author of Conscious Conversations. Whether you're in debt or struggling to recoup payments from clients, this episode will give you insight into the emotional aspect of debt collection and impact your approach to finances within your family and business. Mary teaches entrepreneurs how to approach the conversation of debt with empathy while still being firm on their expectations. Debt collection is not sexy but is vital to your company's survival. In this episode, you will hear about the challenges small business owners face when clients fail to uphold their end of the sacred contract. This episode is a reminder that you are dealing with human beings who may be facing financial hardship beyond their control, and how you approach them could be the difference between recouping your money or taking a loss. For the clients on the other end of the conversation, this episode will shift your perception of debt collectors who are simply trying to make a living. This is a conversation that everyone needs to hear. So tune in and get ready to uproot your opinion of debt and your responsibility within The Sacred Contract.

It's not bad to owe money. You can look at debt as an investment. If you take on debt because it's an investment in yourself or in your business that should be looked at as a very healthy thing. That is a resource that we have a privilege to have, but we shouldn't make the loan the bad guy. -Mary Shores “It can feel like someone has taken advantage of us. It can feel all different kinds of ways, but I think we don't talk about it, and what we really need to do is have solutions in place, understand this as a business function and a business role, make plans for it accordingly, but more importantly, learn to let go of it!” -Mary Shores “When you talk to someone, you're asking them questions, you're getting them to open up. You're getting them to discuss the emotions of it, and what we know from social psychologists is that discussing the emotions behind a feeling helps those feelings dissipate.” - Mary Shores "There's a deep shame associated with owing money." - Mary Shores "When I engage with someone and deliver a service for someone, this is like a sacred act of my life's work. Like it's not a flippant transaction for me. It is deeply meaningful." - Dr. Meghan Walker "How do you approach these difficult conversations?... It will get easier with practice." - Dr. Meghan Walker “Higher collections through stronger connections.” - Mary Shores This episode of IMPACT was brought to you by Practice Better.

On today's episode, I dive into a topic that has gotten quite a bit of question over the last few months that is: Can I change or reverse osteopenia or osteoporosis? We'll dive into: The leading causes of osteoporosis and what it is, how one can prevent and/or reverse osteoporosis, the best activities, exercises, therapies, and supplements someone should add to their life to improve bone health and strength and we'll also go through an example of a weekly schedule you could use to wrap this into your life. Bone Health is extremely important where 1:3 of women will have a fracture related to bone health in their lives and 1:5 of men. The expected survivability of these fractures after the age of 65 is extremely scary so beginning a bone health routine today is paramount.

Currently, there are no known safe, effective, and inexpensive ways that can prevent or reduce the risk of developing autoimmune diseases.

Perhaps vitamin D and omega 3 fatty acid supplementation can get the job done. Guest Authors: Rileigh Provenza, PharmD and Nicole Slater, PharmD, BCACP Music by Good Talk

There's a saying. When something is under constant attack...it usually means whoever is attacking, perceives it as a threat. Without going off the rails (we already talked about it on Casual Talk Radio), the recent constant attacks on cryptocurrency usually mean people are greatly concerned.

Unfortunately, losing weight and having healthier blood glucose levels isn't as simple as eating less and restricting calories. To make matters worse, fasting, although a popular method of weight loss and health, is a lot more complicated than not eating. In this we have experts such as Dr. Jason Fung, Dr. Alan Goldhamer, and Mike Mutzel sharing their insights and research on how to approach fasting for weight loss and improved metabolic health. Dr Jason Fung is a nephrologist and the co-founder of the Fasting Method program which has helped millions of people lose weight and reverse type 2 diabetes. Unlike many nephrologists, Dr Fung supports and encourages the education of diabetes and weight loss being possible through intermittent fasting. He's a NY Times bestselling author and respected voice on fasting, weight loss, nutrition, and type 2 diabetes. Dr. Alan Goldhamer is the founder of TrueNorth Health Center. His clinic focuses on healing patients through plant based vegan diets, and clinical fasting. Dr Goldhamer is also the author of The Pleasure Trap, Mastering the Hidden Force that Undermines Health & Happiness. Mike Mutzel is a functional medicine consultant in the natural product industry. He's obsessed with evidence-based natural medicine and is the author of the Bell Fat Effect. Mike is also the founder of High Intensity Health. QUOTES: “It's not just about the calories, it's about the hormones.” Dr. Jason Fung “You can't burn body fat if insulin is high.” Dr Jason “If you fast and exercise you actually lose more weight but more of it is lean tissue. If you fast and rest you mobilize predominantly fat and specifically visceral fat.” Dr Alan Goldhamer “Drinking too much water can flush your electrolytes out and result in water intoxication.” Dr. Alan Goldhamer “I'm not really concerned about fat loss as the best proxy for health.” Mike Mutzel “Have the carbohydrate commence with the activity.” Mike Mutzel Follow Jason Fung: Website: https://www.doctorjasonfung.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drjasonfung/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/drjasonfung YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@drjasonfung Follow Dr. Alan Goldhamer: Website: https://www.healthpromoting.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/truenorthhealth Follow Mike Mutzel: Website: https://highintensityhealth.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/MikeMutzelMS Twitter: https://twitter.com/MikeMutzel Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/metabolic_mike/ Sponsors: Sign up for a one-dollar-per-month trial period at http://www.shopify.com/impact This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.

In this Real Estate News Brief for the week ending February 18th, 2023... a double dose of inflation data, why investors might save the day for the housing market, and what remote workers are worried about this winter. Hi, I'm Kathy Fettke and this is Real Estate News for Investors. If you like our podcast, please subscribe and leave us a review. Economic News We begin with economic news from this past week. The government released “two” inflation reports, that show we're not making as much progress as we'd like in taming those high prices. The Consumer Price Index or CPI shows that the cost of living was up .5% in January, with a slight drop in the annual rate from 6.5% to 6.4%. The core rate, which omits food and gas, was also higher than expected at .4% for January and an annual rate of 5.6%. Most of the increase was due to higher housing costs and gas prices, and was higher than Wall Street economists expected. Rents were up .7% in January while the yearly cost for shelter jumped to a new peak of 7.9%. Housing is the single largest CPI category, but it's also a lagging indicator by about six months. (1) The latest Producer Price Index or PPI was also released and shows a .7% jump for January. Economists had expected about half that much. The annual rate is down from 6.5% to 6% however, but both reports show that inflation is still well above the Federal Reserve's 2% target. (2) Meanwhile the job market is showing stubborn resilience against the Fed's effort to slow the economy. Initial jobless claims were still below 200,000 for a fifth week in a row. Ongoing claims rose slightly to 1.7 million. Both readings are still low, although the continuing claims have been rising gradually since last spring. (3) Housing starts were down again, thanks to builder concern about a lull in buying activity. The Commerce Department says they were down a seasonally adjusted 4.5% in January to 1.31 million. As MarketWatch reports, construction is now at its lowest level since June of 2020 with the annual rate of housing starts off by 27.3%. But, builders are becoming more confident about an increase in sales, with signs that they plan to increase production in the coming months. (4) The National Association of Homebuilders says the home-builder confidence index is now up to 42. It's still below the breakeven point of 50 but it's an 11 point jump from December. (5) Mortgage Rates The rate for a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage didn't move much this past week. Freddie Mac says the average was up two basis points to 6.32%. But the 15-year was up a quarter of a point, to 5.51%. (6) In other news making headlines… Will Investors Prevent a Housing Market Crash? A billionaire real estate fund manager is speculating that investors will prevent a housing market crash. The rapid rise in home prices combined with higher interest rates have sidelined a lot of buyers, and there's speculation that we'll end up seeing a housing market crash. But Grant Cardone told Benzinga that “investors will re-enter the market before it starts teetering toward a crash. He apparently plans to be one of those investors. (7) He said in a statement: “Investors will step in to pick up single-family homes at lower prices with less competition. That being said, there will be no housing crash. Investors, like myself, will save the day and step in to buy the home.” Strong Year Expected for Build-to-Rent SFRs A new analysis of Census Bureau data shows the market share of build-to-rent homes is growing, and the trend is expected to continue. The National Association of Home Builders reports a 6% increase in build-to-rent starts during the fourth quarter of last year. That's about 17,000 homes, with a yearly total of about 69,000. Compared to 2021, that's a 33% increase. (8) The numbers only include homes that were specifically built for renting, and not for homes that were sold to another party for rental purposes. Based on industry surveys, the NAHB estimates that the build-to-rent market share is higher by another 5% or more if you include those homes. Remote Work Getting Too Expensive for Some Workers While many remote workers love the freedom to work from home or wherever, the winter months have apparently been a wake-up call for some. Remaining at thome means higher heating bills, and with the rising cost of energy, that's turning into a big expense for some people. (9) Internet provider Sky Connect conducted a survey among 1,000 remote workers and found that 87% are worried about their energy bills. Many said they have been forced to find another place to set up shop, like a local cafe. The only downside is that internet service may not be as reliable. The upside is the support of local businesses, and the need for those businesses to provide the kind of working environment that will keep those remote workers happy when they are not working from home. That's it for today. Check the show notes for links. And please remember to join our network of investors at newsforinvestors.com, and subscribe to our podcast.

A listener calls in and explains that she has previously enjoyed showing, and would like to show again…but a few thing have changed. She is older, and now lives in an area where she doesn't know as many people. She says, “The fear that is preventing me from showing my horse is the fear of getting hurt or getting someone else hurt.” In this episode I outline the importance if understanding that fear can be pointing towards an unwanted (negative) emotion, or. fear can pointing towards danger, or both can be present. Also discussed are the challenges that change with age and a change of situation, the power in acknowledging what specifically you are afraid of, the reasons why traveling brings up issues and ideas for how to assess and proactively approach the challenge.
