In this riveting episode of "The Smartest Doctor in the Room," Dr. Dean Mitchell dives deep into the often-overlooked amino acid, homocysteine—a key player in heart health that could be more important than cholesterol in assessing your risk for heart disease.

Join Dr. Mitchell as he takes you on a journey through the evolution of heart disease research, spotlighting the groundbreaking work of Dr. Kilmer McCully, the man who dared to challenge the status quo on cholesterol and spark a medical revolution about inflammation’s role in cardiovascular health.

Dr. Mitchell also shares personal anecdotes and insights from his years of practice in holistic functional medicine, along with resources on how to assess your own risk factors effectively. Whether you’re a healthcare professional or someone simply looking to enhance your understanding of heart health, this episode is packed with valuable information you won't want to miss!
