S2E4: Why "Healthy" Young People Get Heart Disease

Why are so many seemingly healthy young men and women getting heart disease? These are individuals with seemingly normal labs, no family history, who might even be exercising and eating relatively healthy, but end up with a heart attack or visible plaque on a heart scan test.

In this episode we discuss:

• Surprise heart disease in seemingly healthy individuals
• Brief science primer on heart disease using boats and tunnels
• Concept of arterial flammability
• Commonly overlooked risk factors
• Common personality profiles for surprise heart disease
• The role of COVID-19 and Microplastics
