❤️ Prevent & Treat Heart Disease, Attacks & Failure | Functional Medicine with Dr. Howard Robins
In this episode of Functional Medicine with Dr. Howard Robins, we address one of the most serious health challenges today: heart disease, heart attacks, and heart failure—and how these conditions can be prevented, treated, and even reversed naturally.Heart disease is a broad term covering conditions that affect the heart and blood vessels, most commonly caused by plaque buildup (atherosclerosis) that narrows arteries and restricts blood flow. This process can lead to heart attacks, strokes, and heart failure. A heart attack occurs when blood flow to the heart is suddenly blocked, usually by a blood clot. Heart failure develops when the heart muscle becomes weakened or stiff and can no longer pump enough oxygen-rich blood to meet the body’s needs—causing symptoms like shortness of breath, fatigue, and swelling.Dr. Robins explains the root causes behind cardiovascular disease, why conventional approaches often focus only on symptoms, and how functional medicine strategies can safely and effectively support heart health. This episode covers prevention-first strategies as well as natural treatment approaches designed to improve circulation, reduce inflammation, and support long-term cardiovascular function.👉 Subscribe to learn from Dr. Howard Robins—combining functional medicine, ozone therapy, and decades of clinical expertise to help restore health naturally. @DoctorHowardRobins
