ABOUT THIS VIDEO:
This is a follow-up to another video showing how I decreased the plaque in my artery walls.

Even though I always maintained a healthy lifestyle, I had challenging genetics. I'm not alone; over half of us have some high-risk versions of 9P21. It's been known as the "cancer" gene and the "heart attack" gene. Now it's clear that it causes both cancer and heart attack due to increased diabetes risk. And there are multiple locations and high prevalence. The bottom line is that most of us have some 9P21 risk. That's why Type 2 Diabetes is so common for people over 50. I have very high 9P21 risk.

However, I made some simple adjustments (5-pound weight loss, increased omega 3s, HIIT training, resistance training, niacin, rosuvastatin, and ramipril). My arterial age dropped steadily over the next 18 months from 73 years old to 52 years old. No matter where I fall in the CIMT/arterial age debate, it's clear I have been lowering my LDL plaque load in my intima-media space.

🩺ABOUT DR. BREWER
Dr. Brewer started as an Emergency Doctor. After seeing too many preventable heart attacks, he went to Johns Hopkins to learn Preventive Medicine. While there, he went on the run the post-graduate training program (residency) in Preventive Medicine. From there, he made a career of practicing and managing preventive medicine and primary care clinics. His later role in this area was Chief Medical Officer for Premise, which has close to 1,000 primary care/prevention clinics. He was also the Chief Medical Officer for MDLIVE, the second largest telemedicine company. More recently, he founded PrevMed, a heart attack, and stroke prevention clinic.

At PrevMed, we focus on heart attack, stroke, and cognitive decline. We serve patients who have already experienced an event as well as those who have not developed a diagnosis or event. Dr. Brewer provides services via telemedicine or in-person if you're in the Lexington, KY area. We find a lot of undiagnosed prediabetes or insulin resistance. Treating unrecognized risk factors like prediabetes allows reduction of risk and prevention of disease.
