Heart Disease: 200+ Expert Talks

About Heart Disease

Heart health brings many people to DrTalks, often after a scary test result or a family history they don't want to repeat. Chest pain, palpitations, cholesterol numbers that are hard to make sense of, rising blood pressure, and risk that climbs after menopause are all things these experts see every day. These talks also go past cholesterol. Your heart is tied to inflammation, blood sugar, the lining of your blood vessels, stress, hormones and even your gut bacteria. You'll find conversations on heart scans that spot plaque early, why fit people still have heart attacks, nitric oxide and sexual health, and foods that support your heart. Doctors, lifestyle medicine physicians and nutrition experts explain what's actually going on, which tests are worth asking your provider about, from ApoB and lipid panels to inflammation markers and heart imaging, and what helps, from plant-rich whole-food eating and omega-3s to exercise, strength training, better sleep and medication when it's needed.
