This week, Dr. Kahn discussed two patients at the Kahn Center who were referred for cardiac bypass surgery (CABG) but have chosen to pursue a science-backed, yet rigorous, program of lifestyle and medication. Dr. Kahn discussed the new CENTURY study, which demonstrated that "comprehensive" care over five years in heart patients significantly improved outcomes and helped avoid CABG.

Dr. Kahn goes on to review shorter topics including a new video by Valter Longo, Ph.D. (WATCH HERE), conflicts in research on meat, outcomes on statin Rx medications, black vs. sweet coffee, low-fiber and red meat diets on heart plaque, and the Sit-to-Stand test.

This week, Dr. Kahn discusses the experience at the Kahn Center with patients showing persistent levels of antibodies to the spike protein from either a COVID-19 illness, vaccination, or both. New data is presented, and treatment protocols are reviewed—while recognizing that more research is still needed.

Short topics include fruits and vegetables for better sleep and healthy aging, yoga for the heart, the 30-year risk of heart disease, and EMF exposure and its impact on the heart.

This week, Dr. Kahn brings up the topic of the mind’s role in heart health. A randomized trial of Transcendental Meditation (TM) in patients at high risk for heart events over 5 years showed powerful benefits, including reduced CIMT thickness on ultrasound. He also discusses the role of hope in heart patients, and a trial that found statins did not worsen depression in those affected. Mindful eating is also covered, with data showing it’s linked to higher-quality, plant-based dietary patterns. Chew your food and be grateful.

Shorter topics include pycnogenol for cellulite, diet drinks and diabetes risk, therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) and aging reversal, and the benefits of chickpeas, black beans, olive oil, and the Portfolio Diet for reducing heart deaths.
