What Really Causes Heart Disease? Revealed by Cardiologist | Heal Thy Self w/ Dr. G #389
Most cardiologists wait until you're having a heart attack to intervene. Dr. Michael Twyman, a board-certified cardiologist and founder of Apollo Cardiology, is flipping that script entirely. In this groundbreaking episode, Dr. Twyman reveals why conventional cardiology is missing the real root causes of heart disease and how quantum biology, mitochondrial health, and circadian rhythms are the future of cardiovascular medicine.
Dr. G and Dr. Twyman dive deep into: – Why nitric oxide is your heart's most critical molecule (and how to optimize it naturally) – The glycocalyx: your blood vessel's protective coating that most doctors ignore – How your oral microbiome directly impacts your cardiovascular health – Why grounding and sunlight are essential for heart health – The cutting-edge labs your cardiologist probably isn't ordering – How to spot early signs of heart disease decades before symptoms appear.
This isn't about cholesterol and cardio. This is about understanding your heart as an electrical, quantum system that thrives on light, movement, and proper fuel. Dr. Twyman shares practical protocols for optimizing mitochondrial function, supporting endothelial health, and preventing cardiovascular disease at the cellular level.
If you want to live longer and stronger, this episode will completely reframe how you think about heart health.
