Full Transcript Advanced Risk Testing Overview 0:00 Now there are many tests that can be helpful to determine not only future cardiovascular risk, heart attack and stroke risk but also risk of cancer or 0:10 risk dementia or other risk movement disorders like Parkinson's for example. 0:14 So these are some of the most advanced tests you can get and you take a screenshot of this. 0:20 You can see this information of course on our website. 0:25 And things like oxidative stress, I think is the best thing you can do to actually determine your risk. 0:29 Markers of inflammation like HSCRP, abnormal cholesterol ratios or types of lipid protocols like LP little A and blood sugar measurements like hemoglobin A1C, 0:42 homocysteine levels are important. 0:44 But then also looking at things like environmental toxins, things mold microtoxins, the plastics and phthalates and parabens.
Natural Heart Doctor Intro 0:53 Also looking pesticides. 0:55 And then we can look at gut integrity or leaky gut. 0:58 We can also look intracellular nutrients. 1:03 Welcome to the Natural Heart Doctor show. 1:05 I'm cardiologist Dr. 1:06 Jack Wolfson. 1:08 Heart problems don't come from a drug deficiency. 1:10 They come root causes where cardiologists never look. 1:14 On this show, I sit down with experts who challenge the mainstream rhetoric and talk about what actually builds a heart built to last. 1:21 Get ready for a dose of cardiac longevity. 1:26 Hello, welcome back to my mini talk about heart attack and stroke prevention. 1:31 And in this final mini-talk, again, I'm Dr.
Why Common Cardiac Tests Fall Short 1:35 Jack Wolfson, cardiologist and founder of Natural Heart Doctor and one of the co-hosts of The Summit. 1:42 I want to tell you that mainstream tests do not help when it comes to heart attack prevention. 1:52 They don't really give you useful information. 1:54 So take the ECG or EKG for example. 1:57 The EKJ tells you about old damage. 2:01 that was done, it doesn't predict future damage. 2:05 An EKG or ECG is good for when you're having symptoms at that moment, like if you are in the emergency room or in a doctor's office and you have symptoms. 2:14 at the moment, but again, for prevention of heart attacks, it's not very useful. 2:19 Neither is a CT scan. 2:20 A CT Scan does provide you with plenty of radiation that you don't need. 2:25 Plenty of false positives and false negatives on that test. 2:30 But a CTScan also does not predict your future events. 2:33 It's really good for future risk of events, and it is also not good to really follow because It doesn't really change much over time. 2:43 You should not expect anything except for an increase in coronary calcification using conventional methodologies. 2:51 If you use natural methodologies, you can potentially reverse coronary calcification. 2:56 But again, a CT scan is not a good test because of what I mentioned above, especially the radiation. 3:01 A treadmill stress test is also good if you have symptoms. 3:04 It's good to determine if your symptoms are cardiac, but it's not good future risk predictor of heart attack or stroke.
Broader Risk Markers and Root Causes 3:13 And neither is cholesterol. 3:15 When you measure total cholesterol, It's just not a good test. 3:18 It was used in the 1970s, but it shouldn't be used now because it's not good predictor of future heart attack risk. 3:26 Now, there are many tests that can be helpful to determine not only future cardiovascular risk, heart attacks, and stroke risk but also risk of cancer 3:36 or risk dementia or other movement disorders like Parkinson's, for example. 3:41 What if your heart could actually get better, not just managed? 3:46 What of your recovery didn't depend on adding more prescription drugs, but on finally understanding why your is struggling in the first place? 3:54 I'm Dr. 3:55 Jack Wolfson, cardiologist at Natural Heart Doctor, and we believe heart disease isn't random, it's a message. 4:01 It's message that inflammation, toxins, nutrient deficiencies, or lifestyle stressors are driving your symptoms beneath the surface. 4:09 That's why our approach goes far beyond the band-aid typical cardiology approaches. 4:15 What we do is if we want to prevent treat and reverse cardiovascular disease, we help you develop a natural evidence-based plan to help your heart recover. 4:24 So if you're ready to move past fear, past confusion, and past just take this and wait, you deserve real answers. 4:31 Visit naturalheartdoctor.com forward slash discovery and get the answers you've been searching for the answers that can help you achieve your best heart health. 4:40 Your next chapter with a simple free discovery call should start now. 4:46 These are some of the most advanced tests you can get and you take a screenshot of this.
At-Home Oxidative Stress Heart Attack Test 4:53 You can see this information of course on our website and things like oxidative stress I think is the best thing you could do to actually determine your 5:02 risk markers of inflammation like HSCRP. 5:06 abnormal cholesterol ratios or types of lipid protocols like Lp little a and blood sugar measurements like hemoglobin a1c homocysteine levels are important 5:19 but then also looking at things like environmental toxins things, like mold microtoxins the plastics and phthalates and parabens also, 5:29 looking a pesticides and then we can look at gut integrity or leaky gut And we can also look at intracellular nutrients. 5:39 So vitamin K2, for example, K-2 keeps calcium in the bones and out of the arteries. 5:44 Doesn't it make sense? 5:45 You'd want to know your levels of K 2 and other fat soluble vitamins like A, D, and E. 5:51 Of course, the B vitamins and things like choline and inositol, omega-3 fatty acids and ratios and CoQ10 and glutathione and of course all the different 6:00 minerals and so much more information that we can really detect. 6:03 But I think the oxidative stress test is really something that you should look into again. 6:09 Oxidative Stress is all about how Your body is losing the battle against these pro-oxidative forces and not having enough of the antioxidative. 6:22 Pro-Oxidated forces are going to be deficiencies of good food and an excess of toxins in an unhealthy lifestyle. 6:30 So, ultimately, we can actually do a home test with you. 6:35 We call it the Heart Attack Risk Test, and it is for oxidative stress. 6:38 It's a simple test done at home. 6:40 it's is a urine test, so it does not require any blood. 6:44 No doctor's order is needed. 6:45 And it easy to repeat. 6:47 So you can test it now and you test at some time in the future. 6:50 One month on the road, three months down the roads, six months on road and see if your score is improving. 6:55 so, it was an at-home test for urine oxidated stress It also includes a heart questionnaire. 7:01 We call it 100 question questionnaire, which is another way that our team over here at natural heart doctor helps you to determine your heart attack risk. 7:09 And it also comes with an expert review call with that.
How the Test Works and Call to Action 7:12 So you want to make sure it's not your turn to have a hard attack or stroke. 7:17 Maybe you've had one already and you don't want another one. 7:19 I think this is the Best at-home test that you can do. 7:23 Get the answers you need. 7:25 HeartAttackRiskTest.com. 7:27 Check it out. 7:28 The test is $197.
