3854: Soft Plaque vs. Hard Plaque Heart Testing (TWT)

from The Cabral Concept

Heart disease remains one of the biggest health risks we face, but understanding what's happening inside your arteries can give you a much clearer picture of your cardiovascular health.     On today's show, I break down the difference between hard, calcified plaque and soft plaque, why soft plaque can be more vulnerable to rupture, and how arterial plaque develops in the first place.     I'll explain what a CAC score can and can't tell you, and how other options can help assess your cardiovascular health.     So join me on today's Cabral Concept 3854 to discover the differences between hard and soft plaque, which tests can identify each type, why inflammation and other underlying factors matter, and what you can do to better understand your cardiovascular risk.     Enjoy the show, and let me know your thoughts!   - - - For Everything Mentioned In Today's Show: StephenCabral.com/3854 - - - Get a FREE Copy of Dr. Cabral's Book: The Rain Barrel Effect - - - Join the Community & Get Your Questions Answered: CabralSupportGroup.com - - - Dr. Cabral's Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > Complete Minerals & Metals Test (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > Complete Candida, Metabolic & Vitamins Test (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > Complete Stress, Mood & Metabolism Test (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > Complete Food Sensitivity Test (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > Complete Omega-3 & Inflammation Test (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels) - - - Get Your Question Answered On An Upcoming HouseCall: StephenCabral.com/askcabral - - - Would You Take 30 Seconds To Rate & Review The Cabral Concept?
