  Speaker 1: Everybody. Welcome, it is July fifteenth. Already we're going to
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: talk about your last cardiac test. You go to cardiologist,
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: heart issues, blood pressure, congestion, on a statin drug. Whatever
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: standard cardiac testing fails to capture certain information. We're going
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: to try to share that with you so you've got
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: a better insight to prevent yourself from being a casualty.
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: All right, stay tuned, hi, and welcome to Health Talk
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: with Doctor Lynn. Your daily dose. The information you hear
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: on the show is informational. It's not meant to diagnose
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: or treat any disease. Any kind of complete health conditions
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: must be checked out and discussed with your primary care physician.
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: Get ready for the good news of the day. God
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: bless you, folks, and here is doctor Lynn. Our daily
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: devotional take comes from the Book of Matthew, Chapter six.
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: Do not worry about tomorrow. That's not a suggestion, but
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: a command. I divided time into days and nights so
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: that you would have manageable portions of life to handle.
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: My grace is sufficient for you, but its sufficiency is
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: only one day at a time. When you worry about
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: the future, you heap day upon day of troubles under
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: your flimsy frame. You stagger unto the heavy load which
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: I never intended you to carry. Throw off this oppressive
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: burden with one quick thrust of trust. Anxious thoughts meander
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: about and criss crossing your brain, but trusting me brings
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: you directly into my presence. As you thus affirm your faith,
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: shackles of worry fall off. Instantly, enjoy my presence continually
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: by trusting me at all times. Stay tuned.
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: Chin seven two seven nine one six four two one
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: five the number to reach me off air.
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: If your last cardiac workup came back normal and you
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: still don't feel right, you're not imagining it. The standard
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: measurements may not be capturing what's wrong. James fifty eight,
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: a working architect, came to my office two weeks after
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: his cardiologists had told him everything looked fine. His cholesterol
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: was borderline, his blood pressure a little high but acceptable,
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: and his stress test was normal. Yet he can no
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: longer climb the two flights of stairs to his studio.
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: That's stopping on the landing to catch his breath. Three
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: or four nights a week he woke up at three
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: am with his start pounding he had stopped traveling for
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: it because long flights left him uncomfortable. Eight months later,
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: James was climbing those stairs without stopping. A key blood
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: marker for arterial disease had fallen from a dangerous level
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: to a healthy one. His heart rate variability, one of
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: the strongest predictors of cardiovaskar health available in medicine, had
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: nearly doubled. He had at last allowed himself to grieve
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: a loss that quietly driven his symptoms for four years,
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: none of which appeared in the original work up. Heart
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: disease remains one of the leading causes of death in
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: most industrialized countries, and a substantial portion of patients who
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: suffer a first cardiac event had no prior diagnosis of
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: heart disease. Standard cholesterol panels, EKGs, and even stress tests
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: routinely miss the warning signs that matter the most. Millions
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: of patients walk around with advanced arterial disease and they
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: know nothing about it. In this clinical experience, the cardiovascar's
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: system is the most legible system in the body. Once
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: a clinician knows how to read it, the heart and
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: the ardors respond measurably and quickly to inflammation, metabolic state,
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: nervous system balance, and the quality of a patient's emotional life.
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: None of that requires special technology to assess, yet most
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: of it's not included in a standard cardiology workoup. After
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: thirty years in medicine, of to believe that no single
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: specialty can on its own protect the heart, I have
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: found useful to examine four dimensions of at once, which
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: I call the Acees model, anatomy, chemistry, energy, and soul.
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: It's a clinical framework formed by both Western medicine and
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: traditional Chinese medicine. The first thing to understand is the
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: heart does not float freely. It sits inside a rib cage,
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: and the shape of the cage determines how the heart
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: can fill in empty with every beat. Forward, head posture,
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: rounded shoulders, and the shallow chest, high breathing that defines
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: modern desk life all compress the cage, restrict movement of
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: the diaphragm, and force the heart to work harder for
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: every ounce of blood it moves. The diaphragm deserves special attention.
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: It's effectively the second pump of the cardiovascular system. With
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: every breath, the diaphragm drops and creates the pressure change
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: pulls venus blood toward the heart and moves emphatic fluid
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: through the chest. Patients degree shallowly all day, which is
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: what most patients do operate with. Chronically sluggish venus return
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: and emphatic drainage, the heart's workload rises, and the puffy, congested,
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: perpetually tired state so common in midlife sets in. So
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: what do you do? Retrain the breath, practice slow breathing,
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: open the chest daily, address the structure directly. The structure
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: problems are long standing. Hands on manual therapy of the
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: upper spine and acupuncture, along with the lung and heart
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: meridians can release the chest it's been locked. So chemistry,
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: how about APPO Lipoprotein B accounts for the actual number
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: of artery clogging particles into blood, rather than the cholesterol
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: they happen to carry. Two patients with identical low density
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: lipoprotein levels that's the bad one can have markedly different
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: APO B levels. The value above ninety warrants attention. Above
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: one hundred and ten warrants active intervention. Lipoprotein LITTLE is
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: a genetically fixed particle that raises cardiovascular risk independently of
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: every other lipid measure. Roughly one in five adults have
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: an elevated level and no idea about it because of
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: the test high sensitivity. C react to protein HSCRP, one
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: of the best markers of the silent inflammation that drives
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: arterial disease. Level above two signals active inflammation in the
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: vessel walls, no matter how good the cholesterol looks. Homocystin
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: an amino acid that, when elevated injures the delicate lining
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: of the arteries and sharply raises the risk of stroke
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: and heart attack. Fasting insulin and glucose precedes diabetes ten
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: to fifteen years and damages the arteries the entire time.
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: Sweat you do. Ask for those tests by name, lower inflammation,
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: added source omega three fats, anti inflammatory, diet, correct what's correctable?
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: Elevated homocystine user responds to methylated B vitamins and rising
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: fasting insun responds to reduce carbohydrate and regular exercise. Energy
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: the force that animates the heart beat. Energy is the
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: dimension for which Western medicine has the least language, and
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: one that in my clinical experience more often decides whether
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: a heart ages well. By energy, I mean two things.
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: The measurable activity of the nervous system and the concept
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: that traditional medicine is called key qi. Begin with a
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: modernistic view. The heart beat is governed not by the
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: heart alone, but by the autonomic nervous system, the automatic
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: control system that also runs breathing, digestion in the body's
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: response to stress. That system has two branches, a sympathetic
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: or accelerated that speeds the heart embraces the body for
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: a threat, and a parasympathetic or a break that slows
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: the heart and allows for repair. Patients stuck in sympathetic overdrive,
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: driven anxious, perpetually braced develops stiff arteries. What do you do?
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: Strengthen the parasympathetic break daily slow breathing meditation, treat sleep
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: as a cardiac medicine seventy eight hours in a consistent schedule.
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: Get outside. Consider acupuncture for the heart and pericardium channels.
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: The heart is the body's most emotional responsive organ. Decades
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: of research into pair psycho cardiology have confirmed that every
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: season clinician observes grief, isolation, and unresolved emotional pain produce
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: measurable physical damage to the cardiovascular system. Broken heart syndrome
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: a sudden, sometimes fatal weakening of the heart muscle triggered
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: by acute emotional shock is the dramatic extreme. The everyday
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: versions are more subtle. Patients with chronically unhappy marriages have
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: more cardiac events than those that leave them lonely. Patients
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: carry a cardiovascar immortality comparable to that of smokers. Patients
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: whose suppress anger or grief for years develop high blood
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: pressure and inflamed arteries. The medication alone cannot resolve. So again,
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: what do you do? Put the emotional history on paper,
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: get the right help for grief and unresolved pain, repair
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: the primary relationship. Give grief a physical channel. Struggling heart
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: is usually a cumulative product of compressed, immobile chest, anatomy,
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: an inflamed, insulin resistant bloodstream, a nervous system blocked and overdrive,
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: the depleted central key, energy and weight carried without acknowledgment
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: in his soul. The result is a patient. It breathes deeply,
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: eats with awareness, sleeps enough, moves daily, quiets the nervous system,
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: and takes the emotional life as seriously as the cholesterol.
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: Number one who can carry healthy heart into his his
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: or her eighties and beyond. Heart keeps a record of
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: life that's been asked to power. At some point, it
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: asked to be heard. That was good. Go back and
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: listen to it again. It's good information as always. You
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: want to help with that. Seventy even nine one six,
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: four two one five, God bless you folks see us
