Sinopse

Welcome to my podcast. I am Doctor Warrick Bishop, and I want to help you to live as well as possible for as long as possible. I’m a practising cardiologist, best-selling author, keynote speaker, and the creator of The Healthy Heart Network. I have over 20 years as a specialist cardiologist and a private practice of over 10,000 patients. This episode discusses 10 commandments for heart health, including not smoking, regular exercise, healthy eating, limiting alcohol, controlling blood pressure and weight, managing diabetes and cholesterol, understanding heart medications, and building a support system. It recommends getting a heart scan to precisely determine cardiovascular risk beyond standard risk calculators. An interesting finding mentioned is that a study on the artificial sweetener aspartame showed it could increase anxiety levels even in subsequent generations of mice not directly exposed.
