Live Beyond the Norms

Show Notes

You can feel healthy, stay on top of your numbers, and still have something serious developing beneath the surface. I know because many of my standard markers looked good when I learned I had a 50% blockage in my widowmaker artery.

I wanted to know what else could be contributing to it. Preventive health and longevity physician Dr. Gregory Burzynski joins me to review my Toxin Zoomer results and put the findings into perspective. What showed up has me taking a closer look at the toxins I’m exposed to every day and what they could mean for my heart.
