This week, Dr. Kahn packs a lot of practical information on health and longevity into this "pea-cast." He discusses the longevity plan of Dr. Michael Roizen, a well-known physician and author, including his regular use of the Prolon Fasting Mimicking Diet (www.prolonfmd.com/drkahn). Another study examines the lifestyle habits of the ultra-elderly in China, showing that it matters even at that age to adhere to healthy habits. The importance of mitral annular calcification (MAC) is also presented. Additionally, two controversial topics—cholesterol levels and mortality, as well as protein intake and kidney disease—are discussed.

The major topic is the importance of Lipoprotein(a) genetic cholesterol levels and disease progression, both in the coronary arteries and on the aortic valve. You do not want to miss this discussion of great importance for all.

Prayers for safety, healing, and peace in the USA and beyond. This week, Dr. Kahn dives into two fascinating case studies from the Kahn Center. But that's just the beginning. He also covers a range of mini-topics, including the role of CoQ10 in combating fatty liver disease, the surprising prevalence of unknown leaky valves in people over 60, and the impact of sleep apnea in younger adults (psst, you can get a home sleep study mailed to you from the Kahn Center at 248-731-7412).

Women with heart disease will find the discussion on the proper aspirin dose particularly insightful. Plus, if you're curious about weight loss options, Dr. Kahn breaks down why "Mounjaro" might be a better choice than "Ozempic" for diabetic patients.

The main topic is a groundbreaking paper by the legendary Dr. Eugene Braunwald from Harvard. He introduces the concept of "plaque years," which measures the duration and levels of LDL cholesterol in your body, akin to calculating smoking "pack years." The gist? More plaque years mean a higher risk of developing atherosclerosis. Dr. Kahn recommends getting a coronary artery calcium scan and a carotid IMT ultrasound to get a clearer picture of your heart health.

In this week's episode, Dr. Kahn dives into some sizzling mini-topics, including the two foods that can raise your risk of death, the pros and cons of drugs like Ozempic, and the role of fitness in prostate cancer prevention. Plus, he shares some good news about coffee and its link to colorectal cancer. There's even a discussion about the surprising connection between loss of smell and heart disease.

The main event kicks off with a compelling patient case study and insights from a recent journal article. Dr. Kahn emphasizes that every adult should have a heart evaluation, but certain "red flags" can increase your risk even more. Tune in as Dr. Kahn breaks down these critical red flags to help you prioritize your heart health.

In this bonus episode, Dr. Joel Kahn interviews Dr. James Min, founder and CEO of Cleerly Health.

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.

This week, Dr. Kahn dives into a variety of intriguing health topics. He explores the potential of weight loss drugs to reverse sleep apnea and shares insights on the lifestyle benefits of the PROLON 5-day fasting-mimicking diet.

Tune in to learn about the health perks of spending time in green spaces, the risks of plastics like bisphenol(A) for diabetes, and the link between psoriasis and heart disease. A recent report on multivitamins and their ineffectiveness in reducing death rates is also discussed.

The main focus is on the EAT-Lancet Planetary Health Diet, introduced in 2019. Dr. Kahn reviews new research that shows eating healthy for the planet not only lowers the risk of death during the study period but also reduces the likelihood of diseases like heart disease, cancer, and respiratory issues.
