In this powerful episode of Keeping Abreast, Dr. Jenn Simmons sits down with cardiologist Dr. Jack Wolfson to challenge the conventional wisdom on heart health. Together, they unpack the failures of mainstream cardiology, the risks of statins, and why true healing comes from addressing root causes—not masking symptoms with pharmaceuticals.

From nutrition and stress management to environmental toxins and community support, Dr. Wolfson and Dr. Jenn explore the real drivers of cardiovascular health. They also discuss how COVID-19 reshaped the landscape of heart disease and why women face unique risks too often ignored in conventional medicine.

This conversation is essential listening for anyone questioning the pill-for-every-ill approach, seeking practical steps for prevention, or wanting to reclaim ownership of their heart health.

  • Why cardiovascular disease remains the #1 killer worldwide
  • How pharmaceuticals often miss the root cause
  • The truth about statins and their limited benefits
  • The central role of nutrition in heart health
  • How stress and emotional health impact the heart
  • Why toxins in food, water, and air can drive disease
