So today's guest is Dr. Stephen. He is a chiropractor and a nutritionist, and he has some fantastic experience. He's a heart attack survivor, and he's also type 1 diabetic. So I thought he would be a really good guest on the podcast because piggybacking on the podcast earlier this season with Dr. Corey talking about blood pressure. Dr. Steven goes into how heart attacks
0:00:28
is not necessarily a cholesterol issue or diet issue, but an overload of the system, pinpointing with EMS, grounding, the importance of grounding, using, getting enough red light, managing stress, and of course, watching the inflammation. So I really hope that you enjoy this podcast.
0:00:50
Where did you get your DC hat?
0:00:53
University of Western States.
0:00:54
Okay.
0:00:55
I guess it was Western States Chiropractic College when I first started going there.
0:01:00
Do you live out there?
0:01:02
No, I just went out there for school and then moved to Europe and then came back. Now I'm in Virginia.
0:01:07
Okay, oh, Europe.
0:01:09
What part?
0:01:10
Ireland.
0:01:11
Oh, I love Ireland.
0:01:13
Yeah, I lived there for two years and they kicked me out so I come home
0:01:17
yeah one of my girlfriend's practices over there completely jealous of that
0:01:21
really cool yeah that was my first job was in Ireland it was kind of a mess but it was a great experience so thank you so much for coming on yeah of course I'm happy to do it I will go ahead and let you introduce yourself I am dr. Steven I guess my day job is as a chiropractor. I also have a master's degree in human nutrition and functional medicine.
0:01:43
So, yeah, you know, day in, day out, I practice chiropractic. And then I also have an online health consulting business where I consult with clients all over the world. I do speaking and I've written three books, which are the health evolution
0:01:59
and understanding the heart and pain sense But yeah, you know, I guess like anybody else I got interested in health because of my own health struggles as a child and as a young adult and you know Tried a lot of different things to help me with those struggles and nothing really helped until I started changing my lifestyle and learning way more things than I was ever taught in school,
0:02:27
and trying all that stuff, and I've had some pretty, I guess, miraculous, according to Western medicine, healing that happened to me by different strategies. So it just keeps pushing me further and further into the alternative health world.
0:02:45
And I wouldn't even call it alternative, it's just like what creates health in humans, and trying to figure out why life is here and how life sustains itself. But yeah, so we can get into any and all that. I'm sure we will, so.
0:02:58
Yeah, absolutely. So I'm very intrigued with the timeline because like you said, a lot of us get to where we are based on our own health. You're a chiropractor. Did you get your nutrition degree
0:03:09
while you were in chiropractic school or did that come after?
0:03:12
Just after, yeah. So the school I went to, University of Western States, had just launched, like maybe six months prior to my graduation from chiropractic school, they launched their Human Nutrition and Functional Medicine Master's program,
0:03:23
which was like half in-person, half online at the time. So I did that after chiropractic school.
0:03:30
Wonderful, and then I have noticed that you are type 1 diabetic, correct?
0:03:35
Mm-hmm, yep.
0:03:35
How long have you been diagnosed with that?
0:03:38
Since I was nine years old. And that combined with a lot of inflammatory conditions when I was a kid, everything from asthma to chronic hives to IBS, to allergies, and then eventually autoimmune type one diabetes or quote unquote autoimmune type one diabetes. That's what threw me and my family into medicine,
0:03:57
like asking them, like, what do we do about this? And it was always manage the symptoms, not really an explanation of what the causes of these things were. And so it wasn't until college that I started to figure out that I could reverse most of those conditions, aside from the type one that had already happened with lifestyle stuff. And so I was like, well, that's weird that no doctors ever really told me that. And that's what in college is when I started to get really interested in health and knew I wanted to become some
0:04:28
kind of health practitioner and went from there.
0:04:31
Exactly. So share with us, because you're young, your experience with the heart attack, how you went through the Western medicine approach. Did you see it coming and what have you done alternative, natural to help prevent any recurrence?
0:04:46
Yeah, so, yeah, so, you know, I reversed all those inflammatory conditions. I no longer have those aside from the type one diabetes, which heavily predisposed me to heart disease. And I knew that for a long time. And, you know, I always been really good at diet and exercise. Those are the ways I took care of myself, you know, from graduation, from any schooling at like 26 years old,
0:05:15
all the way up until age 34, when yes, I had a Widowmaker heart attack. And yes, there was no way to see it coming. There was no, I had no atherosclerosis in my body anywhere. Six months prior to this heart attack, I had a CAC score done,
0:05:31
which is a measure of how much calcified plaque there is in the arteries of your heart. And I had zero, which is a perfect score. That doesn't measure soft plaque, but when I had the heart attack and they did the heart cath to place the stent, bust the clot and place the stent,
0:05:47
they saw no atherosclerosis anywhere, they just saw a clot, a giant clot that formed in the left anterior descending artery, which is the most common place for heart attacks to happen. So yeah, there was really no indication, I guess aside from me being type one
0:06:01
and that predisposes you to heart disease. But I had no vascular pathology going on. It was just a spontaneous clot that formed. And so I really delved into the heart and heart disease even prior to that because I predisposed to type one, but especially since after. And so yeah, I was sitting there in the hospital and all they could tell me when I would
0:06:31
ask, what happened? What did you find? What caused this? And I knew what they're gonna say. They were like, well, it's cholesterol. Cholesterol is what causes these things, you know, and that was the answer I got from every doctor, intern, resident that I saw. And I was just like, all right, fine. But you know, at that point, I was just like, you know, I was pretty demoralized. And I was like, Okay, throw my hands up, like, what do you have for me? Like, I'll do what you say, to an extent, but after three days in
0:06:59
the hospital, I was like, Okay, I won't do what you say. Because what they gave me was the wrong advice, according to the literature, not just my opinion, but like, doesn't stack up to what the literature shows. And I'm not giving any medical advice or saying that this would be the case for everybody else But for me I personally based on my information
0:07:18
And how I felt about things decided to ignore their advice because their advice was Well, first of all, they said it was all about cholesterol, which there's no research to support that and Also, they while I was in the hospital, they prescribed 11 different medications. And they told me that I'd be on five of those the rest of my life, which were a cholesterol medication, a satin, two blood pressure medications, a blood thinner, and then a baby aspirin for
0:07:51
the rest of my life. And I was like, well, that sounds crazy. And I knew the evidence against that, like that, if those things made us healthy, then we'd be the healthiest country in the world because we take 80% of the world's drugs. So if those things created health, we'd be a healthy country. We're not we rank like 40th, I think, in health outcomes in America. So
0:08:13
there's no nothing wrong with like drugs and acute situations and how they can help us get through an acute situation, but they're never going to create health or prevent disease. And that's very clear based on the literature. So, you know, that and then, you know, just a lot of things like they wanted me on the blood thinner
0:08:33
because I just had a stent placed, and that makes sense. There's a foreign body in there, like we don't know if that's gonna create clotting, and so I did take the blood thinner for, well, half the dose of the blood thinner they wanted me to for six months, and that's all I did.
0:08:47
And then, and that was because I consulted with a cardiologist who's more in the know I would say And that was his advice to me. So Yeah, but then they also told me to eat Basically a processed food diet You know, they came in they said this is the heart healthy diet, you know It was all the low saturated fat and low salt and all this stuff
0:09:07
like literally Animal crackers and fig newtons and vegetable oils were on the list of what I could eat that was okay to eat It was the heart healthy thing to eat Which is just terribly concerning and so I started to you know very quickly Regain my my wits about me and be like alright This is not what I need to do and even just bringing up things like I thought what about magnesium
0:09:29
You know that's been shown to be a blood thinner and the doctor literally said magnesium is not a blood thinner And I was like, okay. I mean, I know there's studies that show that it is. And I actually even found studies that show that after stent placement in animal models, the intravenous magnesium was just as effective
0:09:50
at blood thinners for preventing a clot. Now, that doesn't mean that they have a protocol for that in the hospital and that they can do that because they can't, but it just goes to show that there's no curiosity about that. It's just that you use the thing
0:10:04
that they can make money off of, which is the blood thinners. So anyways, I left the hospital after three days because they didn't know what else to do with me. Usually they'd say people who have a widow maker are in there for a week or so,
0:10:19
but I asked to be released because I wasn't getting anywhere and it was just frustrating. I couldn't control my food. Even my insulin is a type one They wouldn't let me a minute amount insulin, which was super frustrating because they were doing a terrible job My blood sugars were high the whole time, but I went home, and I did kind of develop my own healing routine and
0:10:41
And three months later my heart was completely back to normal Because it had dropped there was some damage to the middle of the muscle in my heart, the middle of the ventricles, the septum, but it was healed after those three months. And my ejection fraction in my heart had dropped to 35 to 40 percent and it was back up to the 55, which is in within the normal range, within three
0:11:08
months. And then after that, so because, so like in a heart cath, they go in through an artery in the wrist or in the leg, in the groin.
0:11:18
And they tried to go to the wrist for me,
0:11:20
but it didn't work, so they went to the groin and the femoral artery, and when they placed the stent, afterwards they sealed it up with this device called an angio seal. And they use that device because it helps the artery heal quicker so that people can sit up faster.
0:11:34
They don't have to lay there for three days while it heals, which is a concern for people who like clotting, you know, laying there like that. But in my case, and in many cases, because I found lots of literature on this, it can actually interfere with blood flow dynamics
0:11:47
going down the leg, and I've developed a 70 to 99% blockage of the artery in my leg. And so I'd be walking, trying to walk fast through an airport or something, and I would have pain in my lower right leg. And I was like, what is this?
0:12:03
I was like, this is like a DVT. Am I getting compartment syndrome? Like what is going on? And then I realized that it was, or I finally got the testing and it showed that there was a peripheral artery disease
0:12:14
in the femoral artery in my thigh. And so that was in July after the heart attack. The heart attack was in January. So I finally got that testing done in July. And, you know, the vascular surgeon was like, well, you know, you can't do some of the things you want to do, but you're able to go throughout your life, we're not going to mess with it, because
0:12:32
usually they get worse when we mess with them. And I was like, okay. And so I did my own healing routine again, which we can talk about it involved lots of infrared sauna and sunlight and circadian rhythm and a few select supplements. Not that many, though. And yeah, within two years, probably within a year and a half, I completely reversed that atherosclerosis in my leg. So it's 100% normal now. And so, you know, the vascular surgeon, when we got the test, it was normal, said, well,
0:13:03
he said, we can't say it's better because we don't see these things get better. And I was like, well, I mean, you just saw it get better. I would have, I would have hoped that your response would have been, what have you been doing? No, rather than, oh, it's just not better, like the tests aren't reliable.
0:13:18
It's like, I can play soccer now, you know? So it's definitely better. Don't you wanna know how or why I did that? And help other people do that too. But yeah, so that's kind of some, I guess, bullet points of my healing journey.
0:13:40
Oh, wow. Did you ever figure out what caused the initial clot?
0:13:43
I don't think anybody will be able to tell me that for sure, but my best guess is a combination of things. I mean, the more and more I've gotten into this, it's heart disease, whether it's atherosclerosis or stroke or heart attack, is about clotting. It's not accumulation of cholesterol,
0:14:07
it's about fibrotic clotting tissue that forms in the arteries. And so that becomes all about being about blood flow dynamics and making sure blood is flowing adequately and that there's enough blood, like hydration issues and things like that.
0:14:19
Because if it's not, if it gets stagnant, then it's more likely to clot. And if it clots, it'll stick to something like the lining of the artery. And so when we look at that, and you consider that I was probably pretty dehydrated
0:14:34
at the time, chronically, because I was eating a pretty low carb diet, but I was not rehydrating. And when you go low carb and you're making ketones, you need a little bit more fluid and electrolytes. And so I wasn't doing that, I was probably having like
0:14:52
maybe a cup of bone broth a day or like fluid. So yeah, I can kind of, I kind of convinced myself that, oh, we drink when we're thirsty, don't drink when you're not thirsty. And you know, I obviously I think that was wrong now. To that, I think I was oxalate dumping at the time,
0:15:07
which is something that happens if you eat very low plant foods, low oxalate foods, your body can get to a point where it starts dumping stored oxalates. And when I look back at testing, you know, maybe nine months prior to the heart attack,
0:15:22
I had oxalates in my urine for the first time ever in my life, which I've had tons of urinalysis since I'm type one. So they test that every, you know, six months or so for me, and that's never happened, but I see that now. So I think oxalates are coming out,
0:15:35
which is an inflammatory type thing. And then I've been going through like a more stressful time because it was during COVID and there were lots of things happening during COVID that I frustrated me. But then also a day and a half before the heart attack, I got probably some of the most stressful news in my life about a close family member. And it wasn't just the news. It was the inability of any like anybody in my family to do something about it. We were just waiting around, hoping this person was gonna be okay
0:16:06
and that the situation would resolve itself. So for that day and a half, I was in this state of figuring out how I could get to her and we couldn't. And then unwisely, the morning of the heart attack, I tried to do the same workout I usually do,
0:16:19
which is an intense interval training workout. And I probably shouldn't have done that. In that state of dehydration and stress and oxalate dumping, like that just created this inflammatory situation. And as soon as my blood pressure and blood flow came back down after that workout,
0:16:37
clot formed and there it was.
0:16:38
Wow, perfect story.
0:16:39
That's my best guess, yeah.
0:16:41
Right.
0:16:42
What all did you change post heart attack with your diet that you weren't doing? Because it sounds like you were eating pretty healthy.
0:16:50
Yeah, I mean, I was eating low-carb whole foods and I've been doing that forever. And at this point, not just because of my story, but just because of everything else I've learned, I don't think that, you know, I mean, diet is obviously important,
0:17:04
but it's not going to prevent disease, just diet alone. And it's not going to be the cause of a disease, just diet on its own. And so my diet really hasn't changed at all. It's still the same very low carb, higher animal foods, plant foods in season type of diet.
0:17:25
So yeah, and I eat that way because I think it's evolutionarily appropriate, but I also think, and I also know that it's very easy for, as a type one, to manage blood sugars when you're very low carb. It makes it very easy.
0:17:40
So, yeah.
0:17:42
And low inflammatory, of course.
0:17:44
Yeah.
0:17:45
Now, I noticed in your book, PainSense, you talk about mitigating EMF. What are your favorite ways that you suggest to listeners to do that? There's so many ways, right?
0:17:56
Yeah, and you could go down a rabbit hole doing all that because it's everywhere now. But, yeah, I mean, some of the I guess the most low hanging fruit is like it's the reverse square law. So you know, the closer the wireless router is to you, or the closest closer the cell phone is to you, the more harmful it is. So the
0:18:15
further away you can keep it when you do have to use those things, the better. So if you have to use wireless in your home, and you can't find a way to plug in directly to your computer, or whatever, put it somewhere in your house that's far away from where you are, or where you usually spend your time,
0:18:31
like the farthest away from you possible. Try not to have your phone next to your head, have it on speaker or wherever. Don't sleep with your phone next to you, put it in another room, those types of things. And then, going further down the line,
0:18:45
you could wire everything in your home so there's no wireless signals. Stop buying smart devices, because they're all sending out a wireless signal that we don't need It's not compatible with our bodies or I mean I go as far as like I turn electricity off in my bedroom at night and
0:19:01
Because there's electromagnetic fields coming through the wires in the walls when they're not turned on to something I sleep in a EMF radiofrequency blocking canopy canopy that you know covers the whole bit so I'm not getting any radio frequency from the neighbors wireless or the cell tower or whatever else is around me or the you know the airport radar whatever it is I'm not getting that kind of stuff but I'm still connected to the electromagnetic field
0:19:28
of the earth which I want to be that's compatible with us because it's been there forever so yeah you could go on and on about mitigating those strategies. But you know, just so people understand, because sometimes people hear that and they're like, you know, they can't see it, they can't feel it, they're like, oh, it can't be that bad.
0:19:46
But you know, like, wireless signals are a form of light. You know, they're all in the electromagnetic spectrum of light, so they're just outside the spectrum of what the sun emits. The sun emits the visible light, all the colors, and infrared and UV light.
0:20:03
And then outside of that are all man-made frequencies of light information. And so the only ones compatible is the ones from the sun or the earth. And anything else is not compatible and they've shown that they are damaging
0:20:18
and they change their physiology, they interfere with structured water, they interfere with solute distribution in the cells, they cause a lot of issues. So that's why it's important to mitigate them.
0:20:31
Exactly. Yeah. Yep. I noticed too, in the book, you talk about grounding, right? So along that same perspective, what's your favorite way to ground?
0:20:41
Directly on the earth, you know, on a clean, pesticide-free piece of grass, you know, that's the best way to ground. But like I'm grounding right now, like my feet are on a grounding mat right now. But yeah, I mean, life is all about harvesting energy. I mean, if you look at the laws of thermodynamics, energy is not created or destroyed,
0:21:03
it's only transferred between entities, and then things that are ordered tend toward disorder. So energy tends to dissipate, to expand. And so life, in a way, is like defying the second law and creating order like it's concentrating energy and creating life So we need to find ways to get that energy into our body and all the energy for life on earth comes from the Sun so if
0:21:27
You know we can get Energy from sunlight directly on our skin because we have melanin and we have DHA and our bodies that can change that sunlight into electrons. The sun concentrates energy into the earth and then we can absorb that energy, those electrons directly from the earth, because we're a conductive surface and the earth is a conductive surface, so we'll conduct that. And we can get energy from breaking down the chemical bonds in food, because either the plant or the animal has stored that energy. And there we can break it down. So metabolism is, it's getting energy
0:21:58
from food. And I really, I say metabolism is just how we deal with the energy we get from our environment in the many different ways. And so grounding is one of those.
0:22:09
Exactly, yeah, I think a lot of us forget to think of energy affecting us, you know? Again, we can't see it, so that aside.
0:22:18
Yeah, do you recommend saunas?
0:22:20
Do you like saunas? Definitely, yeah.
0:22:22
So they're definitely a modern way or modern hack that we can use to help boost our infrared Light exposure so infrared sauna is my favorite. I mean there's benefits to heating yourself in any sort of sauna Just having that hormetic stress of heating yourself and then sweating and getting out toxins and things like that but infrared sauna is just so much better because the Sun is always about 40 to 50 percent infrared light and so Humans, you know used to be outside 100% of the time and so we always have that stimulus of red and infrared
0:22:57
Light and so we need that and so like our physiology, you know use that and so that's what charges your body And so now today we're living indoors under artificial light We don't get that red infrared light exposure as much as we should. And so you can use things like red or infrared light panels or infrared saunas and those types of things to boost that infrared exposure.
0:23:23
I do think you could do too much, just like too much blue light is harmful to us. Like blue light is not bad, it comes from the sun, it's a natural thing, but on its own, and when there's too much, like when you spend the entire day under blue light
0:23:35
in your office or something like that, then it becomes too much and it becomes harmful. So if if red light or infrared light had been what we've chosen to light everything with, I think we'd be seeing damage from that and we'd be like, Oh, we need more blue, you know, it's the processing of the light and making it, you know, one single
0:23:54
color or wavelength of light, that's the problem. And so we need balance. So we're so imbalanced with blue that we can use these infrared and red light therapies to boost our red and infrared and balance that out again.
0:24:08
Exactly.
0:24:09
Yeah, I know we have an infrared sauna, just absolutely love it. And the other thing that I always recommend to patients, and I know you have too, is sound therapy. Yeah, just fantastic. So much research out there on that.
0:24:22
Yeah, I mean, it makes sense. sense, you know, especially the sounds of nature, they seem to be the most calming to our nervous system, they seem to have effects on water in the body that are fascinating. And they seem to actually melanin, the pigment melanin, which we know, you know, gives us the pigment of our skin. But it's
0:24:47
concentrated everywhere in the body, it's in the nervous system, it's in the eyes everywhere, it can receive many, many different kinds of energy. It can receive vibration, it can receive sound, it can receive light, all kinds of things. And when it receives that, it actually can use that to dissociate water in the body and make molecular hydrogen, oxygen, and electrons, which are exactly what your mitochondria need to function. So melanin, super, super important molecule,
0:25:14
and that's one way that our bodies can use sound, harmonious sound, sounds that are compatible with us to achieve higher levels of health.
0:25:24
Exactly.
0:25:25
Now, what's your favorite sources of water? What do you recommend? Do you still think reverse osmosis is the best? What do you do for electrolytes? What are your thoughts on that?
0:25:36
Yeah, reverse osmosis is best if you're going to drink tap water, you've got to put it through that first. If there's things in your water that don't need to be in there and you don't want to drink them, reverse osmosis is best, but you need to add minerals back to the reverse osmosis water because once you take everything out, then there's no minerals and water is always supposed to come with minerals.
0:25:57
That's the way it comes in nature. And so, yeah, you want to add minerals back. I use redmond relight, but there's ketone minerals and there's Beam minerals. There's lots of good ones out there But I use redmond relight I like that one because it's
0:26:09
uh from a seabed an old ancient seabed that is not contaminated like the modern day oceans are So yeah anyways, um, yeah, and then I structure or energize my water as well by putting in the sun or, you know, swirling around the glass, vortexing it, things like that, because the coherence of water is also very important. And that's the way nature has water. Water's not sitting still in nature, it's always moving.
0:26:44
It's crashing on the beach, it's going around in tides, in ocean currents, it's evaporating and precipitating, it's flowing in rocks, over rocks and rivers and things, so it's always moving and being kind of jostled around, so that's what I want to do with my water, because after it's been spent so long coming through tubes, you know, laminar tubes, it gets kind of dead and incoherent
0:27:06
and we need it to be, we need the water molecules to be more communicating to each other to be actual healthy water, so I, you know, stir it around or put it in the sun or whatever.
0:27:16
That's a great idea. I actually never thought about that.
0:27:18
You're right.
0:27:19
Yeah, it's called the Hexerotrophy of Water.
0:27:22
There's some some interesting literature about it. There's actually case reports of people who had like water stored in like a bomb shelter or something. It was just sitting there stagnant forever. And then unfortunately, they had to go into the shelter and they drank the water and got really sick because they should have mixed it around first.
0:27:41
So when water sits like that, it's not supposed to be that way. So yeah.
0:27:46
Interesting, I'll have to look that up. Very cool. And I know you started earlier on talking about how cholesterol obviously is not the problem with heart attacks, which a lot of Western medicine unfortunately still thinks.
0:28:00
What are your recommendations for listeners who have had heart attacks or have a predisposition to that in their family as far as diet goes? Yeah, so yeah, I mean as far as diet,
0:28:17
eat a whole foods diet. That's the most important thing. You know, I don't think that we should be dogmatic about diet. Like there's the carnivores out there, there's the low-carbers, there's the paleo people, there's the vegans, everything. Most importantly, eat a whole foods diet. I think animal foods are incredibly important.
0:28:35
We have to eat animal foods. As humans, that's what made us human, is that food right there. So we need to incorporate that. But then otherwise, just eat a whole foods diet. But I actually don't think that diet
0:28:47
is the most important thing to pay attention to when it comes to heart disease. I think that infrared light exposure is probably the most important thing to pay attention to because of the effects of infrared light and structured water in the vascular system
0:29:01
and how it directly inhibits the formation of clotting material, which is what atherosclerosis and artisaxon strokes and any pathology like that is, is clotting material. So if you look at, you know, everybody wants to look at the diet and how the diet has changed
0:29:16
over the last 120 years or so when heart disease became an epidemic. And it has, you know, we have eaten a more processed food diet, but we have also had an extreme change in light environment. So it used to be that we were outside
0:29:30
and then, you know, we had fire, which is high in infrared, and then Edison invented the light bulb, which was an incandescent bulb, which is high in red and infrared light. That's why it gets hot. And then in the 50s, we get fluorescent lights invented.
0:29:47
And they're very high in green and not in anything else, really. And then LEDs were invented in the late 70s. And they became more widely spread or widely used in the late 90s, early 2000s, and then we got blue screens and all this technology, and we're just inundated with light that has no red or infrared. We're living indoors away from the sun.
0:30:11
We're told the sun is bad for us. And when you look at the effects of infrared light on structured water in the vascular system, and you look at the science and the research and the clinical trials using infrared sauna and things like that on the vascular system,
0:30:23
it's absolutely phenomenal. And so it makes sense that we've had this this epidemic of heart disease growing over the last century and a half When we've removed ourselves from that source of infrared light For a large large part and then we've added in the inflammatory thing so we've lost the protection of the infrared light building the structure water protecting the arteries and then we add the toxins and the processed food diet
0:30:43
And and we just insulting the lining of the artery with those things. So it all matches up. And then we interfere with the ability of the artery's lining to heal itself because we're insulin resistant, because we've created poor metabolic health, and our circadian rhythm is off
0:31:04
because this artificial light is disrupting our circadian rhythm. We're supposed to be synced up to the day-night cycle. I have very clear signals of when day and night is. And we have artificial light on after sunset it disrupts that and we don't get the healing repairing Cleansing sleep that we're supposed to have when we don't have that melatonin production
0:31:21
So now we're not even repairing arteries and they do get damaged So it's just like this, you know one thing after the other and it totally explains pretty much all disease, but especially heart disease
0:31:31
Very cool, so if listeners want to get in touch with you, if they want to purchase your books, what's the best way for them to get hold of you, Steven?
0:31:43
My website is resourceyourhealth.com. And my books are on there and my blog is there. That's where I do my health consulting from is that website. So people can find stuff there. I'm also on social media, a bit reluctantly, but I'm on social media and it's Dr. Stephen Hussey, D-R Stephen Hussey, Stephen with a P-H,
0:32:07
on Instagram and Facebook and X, so people can reach out to me there as well. I also have online courses and I have a health community that people can join and have resources within the community as well. So yeah, lots of different ways to get involved.
0:32:24
Wonderful. My books are on Amazon also.
0:32:27
So perfect. We'll make sure that we link that. Cool. Well, it's been a pleasure. Thank you so much for taking the time. Have a safe flight. And we'll make sure to share all your information. Thank you so much. All right. Take care. All right. Take care.
0:32:37
Yeah.
