Is it possible that "clogged arteries" and high cholesterol aren't the primary causes of heart attacks? In this episode, Dr. Tom Cowan (MD) joins us to challenge the 80-year-old Thrombogenic Theory and break down the clinical reality of cardiovascular health. Drawing from his experience overseeing more than 100,000 patient cases, Dr. Cowan explains why traditional cardiology’s focus on LDL and plaque often misses the true physiological triggers of heart disease. From the power of collateral circulation to the impact of metabolic acidosis on heart tissue, this episode provides the medical clarity needed to look past the "clogged pipe" model and understand how the heart actually functions. Whether you are tracking your own markers or are a healthcare professional seeking root-cause insights, this conversation bridges the gap between historical medical literature and modern clinical reality.
