Description: What if heart disease isn’t something that suddenly happens, but something that builds quietly over time inside your blood vessels?In this episode of Made for Health, Dr. Aaron Hartman continues his conversation with Dr. Christian Jenski, exploring coronary artery disease through the lens of metabolic cardiology and vascular health.They break down how heart disease develops step by step, starting with subtle damage to the arteries and progressing toward plaque buildup, reduced blood flow, and eventually events like heart attacks. The conversation highlights how this process is not limited to the heart, but can affect any organ in the body, including the brain, kidneys, and eyes.This episode also emphasizes the difference between emergency care and prevention. While modern medicine excels at treating acute events, much of the earlier progression is often overlooked. By understanding vascular health earlier, there may be opportunities to shift outcomes before irreversible damage occurs. Key Topics CoveredWhat coronary artery disease actually is and how it develops over timeHow plaque forms, grows, and affects blood flow in the arteriesThe difference between soft plaque, calcified plaque, and stenosisHow symptoms can progress from none to exertional chest pain to eventsThe role of inflammation, oxidative stress, and vascular dysfunctionWhy heart disease can affect multiple organs beyond the heartThe difference between ischemia and myocardial infarctionHow the body adapts and remodels in response to vascular stressWhere conventional cardiology is most effective in acute careWhy early detection and prevention may change long-term outcomesDiscover the book here: https://uncurablebook.com/Follow Dr. Aaron Hartman and Richmond Integrative & Functional Medicine🌐 Website: https://richmondfunctionalmedicine.com/📺 YouTube: @AaronHartmanMD
