Episode 89 Heart Health & Autoimmune

Today's episode is heart-stopping…(LOL). Seriously, heart health is one of the top comorbidities associated with autoimmune and chronic inflammation. I have the pleasure of interviewing Dr. Alexandrea Verge, ND who is a genius when it comes to heart health.

Dr. Verge makes this complicated topic so bit size and understandable. She walks us through the risk factors associated with Cardiovascular health, how we can mitigate risk, understand blood tests and the best ways to monitor your health.

I really enjoyed talking to Dr. Alex, she is a wealth of knowledge and a joy to talk to. Her passion for heart health is contagious… Enjoy the show!
