This week, we conclude our 4-part series on the #1 killer by talking about how to prevent Cardiovascular Disease. In this episode, you'll find out:
—Why Dr. Prather says that preventing Cardiovascular Disease should be a top priority of every office providing holistic care, being responsible for one-out-of-every-three deaths.
—How proper diagnostics are the key to preventing Cardiovascular deaths. And why you should seek diagnostics from a Structure-Function Care perspective.
—When you should start being screened for Cardiovascular Disease. And why Dr. Prather is finding that it is earlier than recommended.
—How there was an 85% improvement in outcomes and 60% reduction in costs when Blue Cross/Blue Shield HMO did a trial that featured Structure-Function Care as the primary health care model.
—Why Dr. Prather gets better patient results from External CounterPulsation (ECP) Therapy than what the ECP researchers are seeing.
—The reason Dr. Prather says that the bodies of those who are triathletes and marathon runners are "a wreck".
—Why Dr. Prather says how deep you breathe indicates how long you will live. And why some patients complain that Dr. Prather breathes too heavy!
—How it is harder to pump blood through fat than through muscle. And how obesity impacts Cardiovascular Disease.
—The greater importance of fat percentage, not just weight, when it comes to a healthy and sustainable weight loss.
—The importance of inflammation as the true cause of Cardiovascular Disease, not Cholesterol, in Dr. Prather's view. And how doctors are often surprised when Dr. Prather helps patients to no longer require Blood Pressure medication.
