    Cholesterol and diet: beans over genes
    Jun 5 2024
    In episode eleven we focus on one of the top causes of premature death in the western world - cardiovascular disease, as we speak with Dr Sundhya Raman about how cholesterol, diet and lifestyle can have an impact on the risk of developing heart disease and stroke. Sundhya is the co-founder and director of My Wellness Doctor - a Lifestyle Medicine Health consultancy. She has a degree in Pharmacology & Physiology, a Medical degree from Guys, King’s and St Thomas’s, London, a PhD in Genetics & Epigenetics from Oxford University and is a qualified Lifestyle Medicine physician with the International Board of Lifestyle Medicine/British Society of Lifestyle Medicine. She qualified as a medical doctor in 2007. Since then she has worked in a broad range of clinical specialties including acute and general medicine, cardiology, general surgery, endocrinology, gastroenterology, respiratory medicine and infectious diseases. Prior to working as a doctor, Sundhya completed her PhD at Oxford University researching genetic and epigenetic factors in inherited cognitive conditions. She went on to work with many well known scientists in labs around the world including cancer genetics at Yale University, and Alzheimers’ cellular physiology at the Wolfson Institute in London.She has always considered suboptimal lifestyle factors to be the underlying driver to most chronic illness and unnecessary suffering. She has therefore taken a keen interest in the evolving evidence base for lifestyle medicine throughout her working life, and has regularly seen first hand the extraordinary benefits that can be attained through implementation of a holistic lifestyle approach.
