Ready to take charge of your heart health? Book an appointment directly with Dr. Hurst now! On this episode of "The Healthspan Podcast," Dr. R. Todd Hurst has an eye-opening conversation with Ironman competitor Robert Steinberg, who shares his remarkable journey through heart disease. Robert's story begins as a dedicated Ironman athlete, who, despite his high level of physical fitness, suffered a heart attack. Ignoring an urgent warning about his cholesterol, he found himself in denial about his health situation. He opens up about this denial, and his subsequent drive to seek help at Mayo Clinic. We discuss Robert's wife's concerns about him continuing to compete in Ironman races and his decision to participate in a farewell Ironman. Robert shares insights about pushing his physical boundaries in the past, and how his approach to exertion has changed after his heart attack. One pivotal part of Robert's journey is his experience with statins. After initially experiencing body aches with his first medication, he discusses his transition to Repatha, a PCSK9 antibody, to control his Lipoprotein(a) levels, a risk factor for calcification. In an enlightening segment, Robert and Dr. Hurst discuss the role of cardiac rehab and nutrition in managing heart disease. Robert shares his experience of how a plan, formulated by Reilyn, helped control his rising blood pressure through nutritional changes. We delve into the question, "Can I eat what I want when I'm super active?" and Dr. Hurst reveals what he's learned about the role of fruit in health. Finally, we move into a discussion about mental health and its impact on overall well-being, particularly in the context of heart disease. Robert talks candidly about his fear of exertion post-heart attack, and the mental benefits he's found in running. The episode wraps up with Robert's advice to others dealing with heart disease - prioritizing support, questioning everything, and exploring natural ways to maintain heart health. He reveals that his goal has shifted from podium finishes to longevity, illustrating a profound shift in perspective.

[04:49] What's the importance of LDL Cholesterol to our body? LDL cholesterol is highly conserved across different species, indicating its importance for life. The immune system uses LDL cholesterol. Low levels of LDL can lead to susceptibility to bacterial infections and cancer. There is ongoing research into the connection between low LDL levels and illness in people, and it has been discovered that some ICU patients have lower LDL levels. Drugs like Repatha and Praluent can drastically lower LDL levels. Still, no long-term safety data has yet to be available, and adverse effects may not always be reported to the database for post-marketing research. [09:17] What are some risks of having high or low LDL levels? Statins have been prescribed for decades, but adverse effects may not be reported until years later. LDL has many functions in the human body, some of which may not have been discovered yet. Studies have shown that people with the lowest LDL levels have higher cancer rates, infectious death, and autoimmune conditions. Some healthcare providers may not understand the human body's basic physiology of LDL cholesterol. [13:57] What's the benefit of presenting research studies to your doctor? Patients can bring research studies to their doctor to start a meaningful dialogue about their medication. Doctors may not be aware of certain research studies due to a lack of time to research every single topic. Pharmaceutical representatives may only present the benefits of medication without mentioning potential side effects or risks. Patients who bring in research studies may see positive results, such as doctors being more willing to adjust their medication dosage or prescribe a different medication. Patients can use their knowledge of research studies to have informed discussions with their doctors about their treatment plans, which could change the trajectory of medical practice. [22:19] Are healthcare and health insurance for better or worse? The healthcare and health insurance business model are not designed to profit from metabolically healthy people who eat a proper human diet. · The origins of health insurance can be traced back to the Nixon administration's wage freeze, which led to companies offering it as a fringe benefit to attract employees. Insurance companies saw an opportunity to make millions and created health insurance products with raised deductibles and lower coverage for profit. The current healthcare system in the United States faces challenges, including rising premiums and the debate over universal healthcare. [40:20] Cooking and Nutrition: Does Cooking Take Away the Food's Benefits? Cooking above 120 degrees Fahrenheit can denature some vital vitamins, polyphenols, and phytonutrients in food, but it is typically a small amount. Minerals and electrolytes are not affected by cooking, as they are elements on the periodic table. Cooking unlocks a bunch of nutrients that are not accessible in raw food. The raw food movement failed because it was difficult to consume enough raw plants to provide the body with sufficient nutrition, and people lost weight to the point of becoming unhealthy. Humans have been cooking food for at least 1 million years, and our bodies have evolved to optimize digestion with cooked food. Cooking meat for a medium rare or medium level of doneness mimics our ancestors' ways and provides many benefits with few drawbacks.

We have an interesting this day in colonialism, I'm sorry legal, history today: on May 19, 1848 Mexico ratified the Treaty of Guadalupe-Hidalgo, ending the Mexican–American war and ceding about half of Mexico's territory to the United States. The treaty did not explicitly list the territories to be ceded and avoided addressing the disputed issues that led to the war, such as the validity of Texas's independence and its boundary claims. Instead, it established the new U.S.-Mexico border, describing it from east to west as the Rio Grande northwest to the southern boundary of New Mexico, then due west to the 110th meridian, and north along the 110th meridian to the Gila River. From there, a straight line was drawn to one marine league south of the southernmost point of the port of San Diego.Mexico conceded about 55% of its pre-war territory in the treaty, resulting in an area of approximately 1.97 million km². The region between the Adams-Onís and Guadalupe Hidalgo boundaries, excluding the territory claimed by the Republic of Texas, is known as the Mexican Cession. It includes present-day California, Nevada, Utah, most of Arizona, and parts of New Mexico, Colorado, and Wyoming.The treaty protected the property rights of Mexican citizens living in the transferred territories and required the United States to assume $3.25 million in debts owed by Mexico to U.S. citizens. Mexican residents were given one year to choose American or Mexican citizenship, with over 90% opting for American citizenship. Article XI of the treaty addressed Indian raids into Mexico, but it proved unenforceable, leading to continued raids and later annulment in the Treaty of Mesilla.The land acquired through the treaty became part of nine states between 1850 and 1912, including California, Nevada, Utah, Arizona, Texas, Colorado, Oklahoma, and New Mexico. The cost of the acquisition was $16,295,149, or about 5 cents per acre. The remainder of New Mexico and Arizona was later peacefully purchased through the Gadsden Purchase in 1853, which aimed to accommodate a transcontinental railroad. The construction of the railroad was delayed due to the American Civil War but was eventually completed in 1881 as the Southern Pacific Railroad.Five TikTok users from Montana have filed a lawsuit in federal court to challenge the state's ban on the Chinese-owned platform. The ban, signed into law by Montana Governor Greg Gianforte, is set to take effect on January 1, 2024, and prohibits TikTok from being offered on app stores operated by Google and Apple within the state. The users argue that the state is overstepping its authority by attempting to regulate national security and suppress speech, which they believe violates their First Amendment rights. They compare the ban to banning a newspaper due to its ownership or published ideas. Montana's attorney general, Austin Knudsen, who is responsible for enforcing the law, expressed readiness to defend it against legal challenges. TikTok, owned by China's ByteDance, has faced calls for a nationwide ban in the United States over concerns of Chinese government influence. The plaintiffs in the lawsuit include a swimwear designer, a former Marine Corps sergeant, a rancher, a student of applied human physiology, and a content creator who earns revenue from humorous videos. TikTok has denied sharing data with the Chinese government and condemned Montana's ban as an infringement on First Amendment rights. The case has been assigned to Judge Donald Molloy, who was appointed by former President Bill Clinton in 1995. Violations of the ban could result in fines for TikTok, but not users (for now).TikTok users file lawsuit to block Montana ban | ReutersThe US Supreme Court has issued a ruling in a patent dispute between Amgen Inc. and Sanofi/Regeneron Pharmaceuticals Inc., clarifying the scope of the patent law requirement known as enablement. The decision affirms a narrow interpretation of the requirement, allowing more pharmaceutical companies to compete in the same areas of research and development. The ruling prevents a single company from monopolizing an entire research area through broadly defined patents and raises questions about the validity of certain antibody patents. The court upheld a lower court's decision to invalidate two Amgen patents related to its cholesterol drug Repatha, emphasizing the need for patent applications to provide enough information to enable others in the field to make and use the claimed invention. The decision cites historical cases to support its interpretation of the enablement standard. The ruling is expected to have implications for the biotech industry, potentially de-risking projects for companies with antibody intellectual property and encouraging more research and development. Inventors are likely to file longer patent applications and focus on concrete examples to avoid invalidation of their claims. The decision also casts doubt on the convention of conservative amino acid substitutions being covered by patent applications.In Amgen-Sanofi Decision, High Court Sticks to Patent Law ScriptThe U.S. Supreme Court has ruled in a 7-2 decision that state militias, including the Ohio National Guard, can be compelled to engage in collective bargaining with unions by the Federal Labor Relations Authority (FLRA). Justice Clarence Thomas, writing for the majority, stated that state militias function as federal agencies when employing technicians who have both civilian and military roles. As a result, the FLRA has jurisdiction over them concerning those employees. Ohio had argued that the U.S. Department of Defense, rather than state militias, should be responsible for negotiating with unions representing technicians. The decision upholds the power of the FLRA to hear disputes between the National Guard and unions, based on a ruling by the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in 2021. Justices Samuel Alito and Neil Gorsuch dissented, contending that the FLRA's authority is limited to federal agencies and that National Guards do not become federal agencies solely through delegated tasks.U.S. labor agency has power over state militias, Supreme Court rules | ReutersCrypto exchange FTX, which filed for bankruptcy in November, has initiated legal action to recover over $240 million it paid for stock trading platform Embed. FTX has filed three lawsuits in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court, accusing former FTX insiders, including founder Sam Bankman-Fried, Embed executives, including founder Michael Giles, and Embed shareholders of misconduct. FTX alleges that Bankman-Fried and others misused company funds to acquire stakes in Embed without conducting proper investigations. FTX closed the Embed acquisition just weeks before its bankruptcy, and the current CEO described the actions leading to the collapse as "old-fashioned embezzlement." FTX's recent attempt to sell Embed resulted in an offer of only $1 million from Giles, indicating a significant disparity between the acquisition cost and the company's actual value. FTX claims that Embed's software was essentially worthless and alleges that little investigation was conducted before the purchase. FTX seeks to recover $236.8 million from Giles and Embed insiders and $6.9 million from Embed minority shareholders.FTX seeks to claw back over $240 million from Embed acquisition | ReutersThis is a bit of news that actually dropped last week, but kind of flew under the radar. The Judicial Conference's Executive Committee has determined that the COVID-19 emergency no longer impacts the operation of federal courts. As a result, a 120-day grace period will begin on May 24, during which federal courts can maintain remote public audio access to civil and bankruptcy proceedings, similar to the arrangements made during the pandemic. However, the grace period does not extend to virtual criminal proceedings, which ceased on May 10 as permission granted under the CARES Act expired. The Judicial Conference Committee on Court Administration and Case Management will continue to assess potential changes to the broadcasting policy for civil and bankruptcy proceedings based on data collected during the pandemic and is expected to present a report in September.Judiciary Ends COVID Emergency; Study of Broadcast Policy Continues | United States CourtsDeutsche Bank has agreed to pay $75 million to settle a lawsuit filed by women who claimed they were abused by Jeffrey Epstein, the late financier. The settlement resolves a proposed class action and addresses accusations that Deutsche Bank facilitated Epstein's sex trafficking activities by failing to identify red flags in his accounts. Epstein was a client of the bank from 2013 to 2018. The settlement is subject to approval by U.S. District Judge Jed Rakoff, who has scheduled a preliminary hearing for June 1.

For over 50 years, people in conventional healthcare have urged Americans to reduce their intake of saturated fat, eat more “healthy whole “grains,” and take statin cholesterol drugs to further reduce cholesterol. Has it worked? No, it absolutely has not worked. As I've discussed previously, both in my Defiant Health podcast as well as my DrDavisInfiniteHealth.com blog, and of course my books, conventional strategies have little, if any, impact on the incidence of heart disease. And, in some instances, conventional strategies increase risk, especially their dietary advice. Witness, for example, that more than 80 million Americans now take a statin cholesterol drug, yet the incidence of heart disease has not gone down and hospitals do a very brisk business in heart procedures while the pharmaceutical industry continues to profit by dispensing drugs that hardly achieve anything. The recent Fourier trial has brought the cholesterol paradigm to its knees by taking it to its extreme. In this very large clinical trial involving over 20,000 participants, every participant was on a statin drug but half were also given the injectable drug Repatha to further reduce LDL cholesterol. So half of participants were on both a statin drug and Repatha injections. Participants receiving statin + Repatha had LDL cholesterol drop from 92 mg/dl to 30 mg/dl, an extremely low value. If the “LDL cholesterol is bad” argument is valid, then reducing it to this extremely low value should yield a significant reduction in heart disease—and it did not. There was a barely measurable 1.5% reduction in cardiovascular events over 2 years and, while the numbers have been a topic of debate, there was a likely increase in overall death in people receiving Repatha—not to mention that the drug costs around $600 per month per person. And, of the 13,000 people on Repatha plus statin with LDL cholesterols of 30, 1300 of them died, had heart attack, stroke, or required a heart procedure over the 2 years—in short, reducing cholesterol, even to extremely low values, does not work. As I have often said, the real tragedy of focusing on cholesterol is that it takes everyone's attentions away from the REAL causes of heart disease. Among them: VLDL, or very low-density lipoproteins. So, in this episode of Defiant Health, let's talk about VLDL particles and why, if your interest is in minimizing or eradicating risk for heart disease that remains the number 1 killer of men and women in the U.S., you need to understand VLDL. ____________________________________________________________________________Get your 15% Paleovalley discount on fermented grass-fed beef sticks, Bone Broth Collagen, and low-carb snack bars here.

Repatha is a medication called a PCSK9 inhibitor that is used to lower bad LDL cholesterol. Repatha works differently than a statins and is very effective at reducing LDL. However, some people report repatha side effects such as really bad muscle pains. Robert is a physician and a marathon runner. In a previous podcast, I interviewed him to learn about his side effects. That podcast and the video were so popular I brought Robert back to see how he was doing since getting off the medication.

Repatha is a popular cholesterol-lowering medication. It's not a statin and must be injected and can dramatically reduce bad LDL cholesterol. Several people have reported intense muscle pains occurring soon after taking the drug. In this interview, I sit down with Robert, a physician and marathon runner who describes what happened soon after he took the Repatha drug. He also talks about how long the drug stays in the body which is important if you are taking the medication and now and having similar side effects.

Scottish doctor, writer, speaker, and outspoken cholesterol sceptic Malcolm Kendrick is back on the podcast this week. He continues to challenge the widespread use of statin medications, despite being targeted personally and professionally by those opposing his message. Since we last talked he has authored a new book, A Statin Nation: Damaging Millions in a Brave New Post-health World, elucidating his position against mainstream medicine’s rampant cholesterol-lowering tactics. On this podcast, Dr. Kendrick describes in detail exactly what he believes drives the process of cardiovascular disease, informed from 35 years of research on the subject. He explains specifically why cholesterol has been misunderstood, and how medicine got it wrong. We discuss corruption in medical research and the money supporting the status quo, and Dr. Kendrick shares some of the best ways to avoid heart disease (which have little to do with diet!).

John shares our take on the first half of July, including CMS’s decision to green-light a Medicaid value-based drug plan, and how JJMDC added a collaboration with Mercy to its list of partnerships designed to improve patient care. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) has approved the nation’s first value-based purchasing agreement for Medicaid, by approving Oklahoma’s request to allow the state to negotiate supplemental rebate agreements with drug manufacturers. Mercy announced a research collaboration with Johnson & Johnson Medical Devices Cos. (JJMDC). In a press release, JJMDC said it would utilize Mercy's data infrastructure to inform and improve regulatory decision making and health outcomes for medical devices.

Although statins have a proven benefit and are widely used, ASCVD continues to be the leading cause of death in the US. In 2015, two proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) inhibitors, alirocumab (Praluent®) and evolocumab (Repatha®), were approved to treat elevated cholesterol when added to maximally-tolerated statin therapy in patients with familial hypercholesterolemia or history of ASCVD. However, the lack of long-term CV outcomes data, high cost, and uncertainty regarding place in therapy have limited their wide-spread use. The recently published FOURIER Study provides compelling new evidence. Guest Author: Kelly Starman, Pharm.D., BCPS Theme music by Good Talk.
