Rethinking Heart Disease: Dr. Stephen Hussey on the Real Causes of Heart Health Issues

Heart disease continues to be the leading cause of death globally, despite medical advancements and powerful drugs. But what if we've been missing the mark on how the heart truly works? In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Stephen Hussey, a board-certified chiropractor, functional medicine practitioner, and expert in heart health, to explore his groundbreaking insights on cardiovascular wellness. After experiencing a widowmaker heart attack in his 30s, Dr. Hussey dove deep into research to understand the heart's true role in our overall health. His findings challenge conventional wisdom, focusing not only on heart function but also the metabolic factors that contribute to chronic diseases. In this conversation, we dive into: · How heart health is interconnected with metabolism and overall well-being. · The surprising science of light therapy and structured water on cardiovascular health. · How lifestyle changes can significantly impact heart health from a biochemical perspective. · The true drivers of heart disease, oxidative stress, and common myths about cholesterol and fat. In his book, Understanding the Heart, Dr. Hussey provides a fresh perspective on heart disease and cholesterol myths while challenging outdated ideas about what truly drives cardiovascular health.
