Most heart attacks happen with no warning — but the plaque that causes them can be found years earlier. In this episode, Dr. John Osborne and interventional cardiologist Dr. Raju reveal why calcium scoring is helpful but dangerously incomplete, and why coronary CT angiography with AI is becoming the new gold standard.

If you're over 40, have risk factors like diabetes or high cholesterol, or have ever been told your stress test is “normal,” this episode could change your life. Most physicians are still missing early plaque — and early plaque is what causes heart attacks. You’ll learn the real difference between old and new plaque, how heart attacks actually start, and why early imaging can prevent tragedy.

Your go-to heart health channel for truth, prevention, and peace of mind — straight from the experts. Get real answers to the questions your doctor doesn’t ask, and a plan to reverse heart disease before it starts. All in under an hour a day — so you can stop Googling symptoms and start living with confidence.

This episode is for people who:

• Are 35+ and want to stay ahead of heart disease

• Have a family history of heart attacks or strokes

• Have diabetes, high blood pressure, or elevated cholesterol

• Have been reassured by “normal” tests but still feel uncertain

• Want long-term prevention, not last-minute treatment

• Believe in early detection and science-backed health decisions

By the end of this episode, you’ll understand:

• Why a zero calcium score can still be dangerously misleading

• The difference between old plaque (calcified) and new plaque (the dangerous kind)

• Why cardiac CT with AI is rapidly replacing calcium scoring

• How early imaging can prevent heart attacks, strokes, dementia, and metabolic disease

• What doctors often miss — and what you must ask for

• Why heart disease deaths are rising again — and how to protect yourself

Most people never connect gut inflammation, fatty liver disease, and heart attacks — but they should. In this episode, gastroenterologist Dr. Tim Ritter reveals how GI disease and cardiac plaque share the same underlying biology.

Heart attacks rarely start in the heart — they begin years earlier in the arteries and even the gut. If you're relying on “normal labs,” routine stress tests, or old scans, you could be missing the silent plaque that causes sudden cardiac events.

Dr. Ritter shares the story of having perfect scans for decades… until a single calcium score changed everything.

Get real answers to the questions your doctor doesn’t ask, and a plan to reverse heart disease before it starts. All in under an hour a day — so you can stop Googling symptoms and start living with confidence.

This episode is for people who:

• Have GI issues like Crohn’s, ulcerative colitis, or fatty liver disease

• Have “normal” cholesterol but still worry about heart disease

• Have had a normal stress test and think they’re in the clear

• Want to understand how inflammation connects gut, liver, and heart

• Prefer proven science instead of guesswork or outdated testing

• Want to PREVENT — not react to — major cardiac events

By the end of this episode, you’ll understand:

• Why “normal” heart scans miss the real danger

• How GI inflammation and fatty liver accelerate coronary plaque

• What the CLEARCARDIO approach reveals that stress tests never can

• Why Dr. Ritter’s calcium score jumped from 0 to over 2500

• How AI-driven CT imaging (CLEERLY) changes prevention forever

• The proven treatment that reversed his plaque

• The drug combination that saved his life — and could save yours

• Why GLP-1s matter for BOTH fatty liver and cardiac risk

• What to ask your doctor TODAY to avoid missing silent plaque
