This week Dr.Kahn discusses the long-awaited full results of the HORIZON randomized study of therapy for Lipoprotein(a). The trial was a major disappointment, as no advantage to lowering Lp(a) by 78% was found after 4.7 years in over 8,000 patients. Have a listen. Other topics include moderate aortic stenosis, potassium, not sodium chloride, beans for kidney health, kiwifruit for constipation, diabetic heart neuropathy, and sleep for the brain. Thanks to this episode's sponsor, tryauri.com/drkahn for high-quality mushroom elixirs and gummies that Dr. Kahn loves and uses.
This week, Dr. Kahn discusses 2 new papers using coronary CT angiograms showing that, in 18-36 months, statin therapy to lower LDL-cholesterol was effective at shrinking the volume of noncalcified "soft" coronary plaque. The lower the LDL-C, the more the regression. This is great news and supports the approach used at the Kahn Center. Other topics include alcohol intake and health, diabetes remission, ezetimibe in clinical practice, statins and dementia risk (the role of CoQ10), and microplastics in polymer tea bags and animal foods.

Sometimes nutrition science seems confusing, but just this week, Dr. Kahn covered some large and important studies reinforcing the idea that food is medicine and that plant-based foods are the best choice. Discussing one of the studies on nut consumption and lower blood pressure, Dr. Kahn mentioned the breakthrough device called the HiLo Corebound, found at hilousa.sjv.io/c/2316006/3958663/54960. Other topics include extra-virgin olive oil and gut health, hearing loss and hearing aids, cannabis for sleep, familial hyperlipidemia (FH), and high calcium scores in young adults. This episode features the Fresh Pressed Olive Club and a $1 offer at getfreshDrKahn.com—not to be missed!
Exercise is one of the most powerful tools we have to protect our heart health at every stage of life. This week, Dr. Kahn explores a new statement from the American College of Cardiology emphasizing the importance of physical activity throughout our lives. Sadly, fewer than 20% of teens meet the criteria for optimal cardiovascular health, highlighting a major opportunity to make movement and exercise a bigger part of everyday life in our schools and workplaces. The benefits go far beyond the heart—from head to toe! Also covered in this episode: statins and dementia, new data on Repatha, CoQ10 and diabetes, elevated blood pressure and mortality, tadalafil and muscle health, and the connection between long COVID and high blood pressure. Special thanks to HiLo for supporting this episode! Learn more about the HiLo blood pressure band here: hilousa.sjv.io/c/2316006/3958663/54960
This week, Dr. Kahn presents the case of a patient seen this month at the Kahn Center for Cardiac Longevity who, over the course of five years, has reversed artery aging and plaque and is enjoying excellent health. He discusses the program used to achieve these benefits. This case, along with many others from the Kahn Center, offers hope for maintaining youthful arteries throughout your life. Other topics include the failure of NR in Parkinson's disease, lipoprotein(a) variability and its relationship to carotid plaque, vegan diets for type 2 diabetes, the USDA dietary guidelines and health, caffeine before sprint exercise, and the possible advantages of low-cysteine diets.

This week, Dr. Kahn presents a new scientific statement by the American College of Cardiology on nutrition to prevent heart disease. The emphasis is on plant-based choices while limiting red meat, processed foods, and excess added sugar. Sometimes, hearing the same recommendation over and over can help. Other topics include statin protection during chemotherapy, retatrutide for weight loss, the MIND diet for brain health, walnuts to boost mood, chronic inflammation and heart disease as measured by CRP and GlycA, and pomegranates for heart health.

This week, as a bonus, Dr. Kahn interviews a Detroit clothing legend, Phil, who celebrated his 100th birthday recently by buying a new sports car! He is approaching his 78th wedding anniversary with his beautiful wife. He discussed his early days in business and early successes, and his health journey, relying a lot on the education he got by repeatedly visiting the Pritikin Longevity Center. This is an uplifting session with a very bright man with a lot of wisdom.
