In this episode of the Darin Olien Show, we explore the connection between endocrine disruptors, microplastics, and heart health. My guest, Dr. Joel Kahn discusses how these chemicals, which are pervasive in our environment, can disrupt the balance of hormones, increasing cholesterol levels, and thereby affecting our cardiovascular health.
Dr. Kahn also dives into what diets are helping and hurting your heart health, the diet habits of different cultures around the world and how each has affected their health, the potential risks of meat consumption and the paleo/ketogenic diet, as well as the misconception around the need for animal protein to build muscle.
As one of the world’s top cardiologists, having practiced traditional cardiology since 1983, Dr. Joel Kahn has treated thousands of acute heart attacks during his career. He’d like all that to stop. He’d like to prevent ALL future heart attacks by breaking through to the public to educate and inspire a new holistic lifestyle.
After his own commitment to a plant-based vegan diet, he truly began to delve into the realm of non-traditional diagnostic tools, prevention tactics and nutrition-based recovery protocols. These ideologies led him to change his approach and focus on being a holistic cardiologist.
