What if “heart health” isn’t about managing numbers… but fixing what’s driving vascular aging in the first place?

In this episode, triple board-certified cardiologist Dr. Chris Davis joins Claudia (with Lumara co-founders Ashley Madsen and Alexandra Cochrane) to unpack a modern, prevention-first approach to cardiovascular longevity.

We explore:

Why conventional cardiology often becomes a “revolving door” of repeat events and procedures
The “getting rusty inside” explanation of oxidative + nitrosative stress (and what it does to your arteries)
How nitric oxide signaling influences vascular function, performance, and aging
Why Lp(a) is trending, what matters now, and how to think about outcomes vs numbers
Why coronary imaging (calcium and plaque assessment) can remove the guesswork
How toxins, membranes, and mitochondria connect to cardiometabolic decline
The emerging frontier: membrane medicine + mitochondrial support (including peptide discussion)
Practical levers you can start with: Zone 2, environment upgrades, and reducing daily toxin load

This is a high-signal conversation for anyone who wants to measure what matters, reduce risk upstream, and build a stronger, longer healthspan.
