    Welcome to my podcast. I am Doctor Warrick Bishop, and I want to help you to live as well as possible for as long as possible. I’m a practising cardiologist, best-selling author, keynote speaker, and the creator of The Healthy Heart Network. I have over 20 years as a specialist cardiologist and a private practice of over 10,000 patients. In this podcast, Doctor Warrick Bishop, a cardiologist and CEO of the Healthy Heart Network, discusses heart disease in Australia and introduces Mark Fox, CEO and founder of Resona Health, who specializes in pulse electromagnetic field (PMF) therapy. Mark shares his journey from chemical engineering to working on the Space Shuttle program and ultimately exploring energy therapy after a personal experience with his dog’s arthritis. Initially skeptical, he became a proponent of PMF therapy after witnessing its effects on various conditions, including PTSD and anxiety.

    EP370: Looking at Plaque in the Arteries - IVUS and OCT
    Jan 25 2025
    Welcome to my podcast. I am Doctor Warrick Bishop, and I want to help you to live as well as possible for as long as possible. I’m a practising cardiologist, best-selling author, keynote speaker, and the creator of The Healthy Heart Network. I have over 20 years as a specialist cardiologist and a private practice of over 10,000 patients. In this podcast, Dr. Warrick Bishop, a cardiologist and CEO of the Healthy Heart Network, discusses the importance of understanding heart health, particularly in relation to heart disease, which is a significant issue in Australia. He emphasizes that many heart attacks could be prevented with better knowledge of blood pressure, weight, and cholesterol. The episode focuses on advanced imaging technologies used to detect plaque in arteries, specifically intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and optical coherence tomography (OCT). These methods allow for detailed internal imaging of arteries, helping interventional cardiologists accurately place stents and assess plaque characteristics.

  • EP369: More on PEMF With Candice

    EP369: More on PEMF With Candice
    Jan 18 2025
    Welcome to my podcast. I am Doctor Warrick Bishop, and I want to help you to live as well as possible for as long as possible. I’m a practising cardiologist, best-selling author, keynote speaker, and the creator of The Healthy Heart Network. I have over 20 years as a specialist cardiologist and a private practice of over 10,000 patients. Doctor Warrick Bishop hosts the Healthy Heart Network podcast, featuring guest Candice Groves to discuss pulse electromagnetic field (PEMF) therapy. This therapy uses frequencies and magnetic fields to enhance cellular function, improve healing, and alleviate various health issues, including sleep and anxiety. Candice highlights significant research showing that PEMF therapy can reduce fracture healing time by nearly 50%, a benefit not widely recognized due to a lack of financial incentives for large pharmaceutical companies. She emphasizes that while PEMF therapy is generally safe, it should not be used by individuals with electrical implants like pacemakers or during pregnancy. The conversation also touches on infrared therapy, which aids in mitochondrial function and reduces inflammation. Candice mentions that her company, Best Cellf, offers products combining both PEMF and red light therapy, providing accessible options for Australians. She shares a success story of a customer with a spinal injury who experienced improved mobility and reduced pain after using their PEMF mat. The podcast concludes with a special offer for listeners to receive a discount on Best Self products. Overall, the discussion promotes the potential of holistic therapies to improve health and well-being.

    Jan 11 2025
    Welcome to my podcast. I am Doctor Warrick Bishop, and I want to help you to live as well as possible for as long as possible. I’m a practising cardiologist, best-selling author, keynote speaker, and the creator of The Healthy Heart Network. I have over 20 years as a specialist cardiologist and a private practice of over 10,000 patients. In the podcast, Dr. Warrick Bishop interviews Candice Groves, the founder and CEO of BEST CELLF, to discuss pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) therapy. Candice explains that PEMF therapy mimics the grounding effect of the Earth and utilizes low-frequency electromagnetic fields to stimulate cellular functions, promoting overall health. The conversation highlights the importance of electrical signals in the body, which are crucial for processes like circulation and nutrient absorption. Candice emphasizes that PEMF therapy can enhance blood flow, reduce inflammation, and support bone health by influencing various cellular activities, including the production of ATP.

  • EP367: Keto and Other Tricky Cardiovascular Situations

    EP367: Keto and Other Tricky Cardiovascular Situations
    Jan 4 2025
    Welcome to my podcast. I am Doctor Warrick Bishop, and I want to help you to live as well as possible for as long as possible. I’m a practising cardiologist, best-selling author, keynote speaker, and the creator of The Healthy Heart Network. I have over 20 years as a specialist cardiologist and a private practice of over 10,000 patients. The podcast discusses various health topics, particularly focusing on keto diets and cholesterol management. Dr. Bishop encourages listeners to subscribe, share, and suggest topics or potential interviewees. A keto diet is defined as a very low carbohydrate diet that promotes burning ketones, often leading to weight loss and improved insulin control. However, the host cautions about the consumption of saturated fats, which can raise LDL cholesterol levels, posing a potential cardiovascular risk despite other health benefits. Research is ongoing to understand the effects of ketogenic diets on arterial plaque progression.

    EP366: LDL is a Remnant or a Waste Product of Lipid Metabolism
    Dec 28 2024
    Welcome to my podcast. I am Doctor Warrick Bishop, and I want to help you to live as well as possible for as long as possible. I’m a practising cardiologist, best-selling author, keynote speaker, and the creator of The Healthy Heart Network. I have over 20 years as a specialist cardiologist and a private practice of over 10,000 patients. In this podcast, Dr. Warrick Bishop discusses the movement of lipids and lipoprotein particles in the body, emphasizing their role in delivering energy sources. He explains that dietary fats absorbed in the gut form chylomicrons, which enter the bloodstream and release triglycerides to tissues via the enzyme lipoprotein lipase. As triglycerides are removed, these particles become denser and transform into intermediate and low-density lipoproteins (IDL and LDL), which are remnants of energy delivery. The liver produces very low-density lipoproteins (VLDL) to perform a similar function.

Doctor Warrick Bishop discusses the complexities of cholesterol management and its role in cardiovascular risk in his podcast. He emphasizes the importance of understanding the difference between primary and secondary prevention of heart disease, noting that secondary prevention clearly benefits from cholesterol reduction. In contrast, primary prevention poses challenges due to the heterogeneous nature of individuals at risk.

    Welcome to my podcast. I am Doctor Warrick Bishop, and I want to help you to live as well as possible for as long as possible. I’m a practising cardiologist, best-selling author, keynote speaker, and the creator of The Healthy Heart Network. I have over 20 years as a specialist cardiologist and a private practice of over 10,000 patients. In this podcast, Dr. Warrick Bishop welcomes back Alastair Horscroft to discuss the importance of protein and amino acids in maintaining health, particularly as one ages. Alastair shares his journey from a vegetarian diet, which he believes hindered his athletic performance, to incorporating protein supplements like whey protein, which significantly improved his physical abilities. They emphasize the necessity of consuming adequate protein, recommending about 1 gram per pound of ideal body weight for optimal health. Alastair explains the distinction between protein and amino acids, stressing that amino acids are the essential building blocks for hormones, enzymes, and neurotransmitters.
