Leading Cardiologist Shares The Tests That Matter Most in Midlife - Dr Abid Husain
Has your doctor told you your cholesterol is "too high" and it's time to take a statin, but you're other markers are squeaky clean, you're living a healthy diet and lifestyle, stress is under control, so you're a little skeptical why you're offered medication based on one number alone?
We cover:
-
Why atherosclerosis is a silent, decades-long process, and why symptoms often appear far too late
-
How menopause changes the vascular landscape, nitric oxide, inflammation, and microvascular risk
-
The difference between a calcium score and a CCTA with contrast, and which type of plaque matters
-
The blood markers that matter more than total cholesterol
-
The biggest myths in women's heart health
Trained in conventional cardiology, Dr. Husain recognized early the limits of reactive medicine. That insight led him to pursue advanced training in preventive, functional, hormonal, and cellular-based therapies, integrating these disciplines into a deeply individualized approach to cardiovascular care. Beyond the clinic, he serves as an educator and scientific advisor, helping clinicians and organizations rethink how we assess cardiovascular risk, resilience, and overall long-term health. He is also a multi-sport athlete, artist, and lifelong learner, because he believes true health is not just measured in years lived, but in vitality, creativity, and meaning.
