Hear from the amazing Howard Leonhardt (with his 21 U.S. patents for products for treating cardiovascular disease) on his latest venture, LIONHEART HEALTH.  Pioneering a new category of "Longevity and Wellness" MedSpas (with the first one slated to open here in Orange County, CA). All built around the new possibility of both improving a patient's overall quality of life and dramatically extending it as well. 

All based upon his breakthrough studies here at UCI's BEALL APPLIED INNOVATION CENTER on electrostimulation and the proteins that may hold the key to regenerating major organs and extending life itself.

All part of an overall portfolio of medical startups under his LEONHARDT VENTURES that includes a company focused on using vibrational energy to prevent clots, plaque and calcification (currently in the R&D phase) and another company working on actual heart valve regeneration (now in Clinical Phase 1).

It's an amazing tale of the future (and how it's being created today).  All told by a proven pioneer in medical technologies who's built his career combating cardiovascular disease.
