In this special 4-part series on heart diseases, we're going to give you something that's getting harder and harder to come by: time with a cardiologist.

Access to medical care is a growing challenge—especially when it comes to specialists. In the U.S. today, a single cardiologist may be responsible for thousands of patients, and nearly half of all U.S. counties don’t even have one.

We’re joined by Dr. Jaspal Gill, Cardiologist and Clinical Research Fellow at the University of London, to break down the fundamentals of the most common—and most critical—heart conditions: high blood pressure, heart attacks, stroke, and arrhythmia.

Every 40 seconds, someone in the U.S. has a heart attack. It’s one of the most feared medical emergencies—and one of the most misunderstood.

In this episode, we cover exactly what a heart attack is, what’s happening inside the arteries and the heart muscle, and how to recognize the warning signs before it’s too late. We’ll talk about risk factors, from cholesterol and stress to family history and lifestyle—and what you can do today to lower your chances of experiencing one.

High blood pressure affects nearly half of all U.S. adults, yet most people don’t know they have it. In this short episode, we unpack what blood pressure really is, what causes it to rise, and why it's often called the "silent killer."

Host Dr. Jason Arora and cardiologist Dr. Jaspal Gill walk us through what’s happening inside the body, how to measure it properly, and how to catch the early signs before it leads to something more dangerous.

Tried all the usual sleep hacks but still find yourself wide awake at 2 a.m.?

You’re not alone.

In this episode of The Health Curve, Dr. Jason Arora sits down with Harvard-trained sleep physician Dr. Sahil Chopra to dig into the deeper, less obvious reasons we can’t switch off.

From overlooked stress signals and tech traps to the cultural myths shaping our sleep expectations, this conversation goes beyond the basics to challenge conventional wisdom—and offer fresh insights that just might help you finally rest.

In the U.S., over 42% of adults are obese, nearly 12% have diabetes, and around 60% live with at least 1 chronic disease. Diet-related chronic diseases—including heart disease, stroke, and certain cancers—contribute to approximately 1 million deaths each year.

In a country overflowing with food, why are so many of us sick?

Host Jason Arora sits down with Neeti Mahajan, food industry exec, to take a big-picture look at how America's modern food system may be doing more harm than good. They explore how ultra-processed foods have fueled epidemics of obesity and diabetes, and why the way we farm is depleting soil and heating up the planet.

If you've ever wondered why junk food is so cheap but eating healthy is so hard, or how our dinner plate is connected to climate change, this episode will give you plenty of food for thought. But it's not all doom and gloom—Jason and Neeti also talk about what a better food future could look like.

Is "male menopause" real — or just hype? In this short episode, Host Jason Arora breaks down what andropause actually is, how it differs from the menopause in women, and why testosterone levels are only part of the story.

Learn what really drives hormonal changes in men, how to support healthy aging naturally, and when testosterone therapy makes sense.

We often talk about health as something to manage or fix—but what if we’ve misunderstood it altogether? In this episode, we explore what it really means to be well through the lenses of ancient wisdom, tribal culture, and Taoist philosophy.

Host Dr. Jason Arora is joined by human performance expert Paul Vincent, who spent decades training top performers before spending the last 10 years immersed in Indigenous tribal communities, Taoist teachings, and the study of psychedelic therapy. Together, they explore what these very different systems can teach us about the mind-body connection, the role of community, our relationship to nature, and the importance of ritual and purpose.

Mental health often gets a lot of attention — but what about emotional health?

Emotional well-being is about understanding and managing your feelings day to day — and it’s not quite the same as mental health. In fact, nurturing emotional health can be a hidden superpower for building resilience, managing stress, bouncing back from setbacks, and forming healthier relationships.

In this episode, host Jason Arora is joined by Katya Constant, a former finance professional turned leadership and emotional health coach. Together, they break down what emotional health really means, why it matters, and how tuning into your emotions can even strengthen your physical health — with chronic emotional stress known to weaken the immune system and drive unhealthy coping habits.

If you've ever wondered why your feelings matter or how to stay calm in the middle of life’s chaos, this conversation provides an accessible introduction to the principles of emotional well-being.
