Ep. 474 How Menopause Impacts Heart Health with Dr. Sanjay Bhojraj

Ep. 474 How Menopause Impacts Heart Health with Dr. Sanjay Bhojraj

Today, I am delighted to connect with Dr. Sanjay Bhojraj, a board-certified interventional cardiologist turned functional medicine pioneer. After 15 years in conventional medicine, Dr. B realized that true healing goes beyond prescriptions alone and founded Well12, a transformational health program that helps millions rethink what it means to be healthy. In today’s conversation, the first in a series of discussions with Dr. B, we dive into the progression of heart disease in perimenopause and menopause, discussing the impact of the Women’s Health Initiative, the physiology of the heart and blood vessels, endothelial dysfunction, high blood pressure, oxidative stress, and inflammation. We also explore the limitations of the standard lipid panel, advanced cardiovascular testing, statins as primary prevention, microvascular dysfunction in women, heart rate variability, wearables, and the autonomic nervous system. You won’t want to miss this invaluable discussion with Dr. Sanjay Bhojraj, and I look forward to having him back for a follow-up episode later this summer. IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: The need for doctors to recognize the risk of heart disease in women, especially during menopause How nitric oxide maintains cardiovascular health and regulates blood pressure Why atherosclerosis is an inflammatory process and not just plaque buildup Addressing inflammation and oxidative stress Benefits of HRT for improving women’s cardiovascular health Advanced lipid testing reveals more about heart disease risk than standard cholesterol panels What cardiologists are looking for when they do stress tests The challenges of treating microvascular dysfunction in women with medical interventions How heart rate variability can improve cardiovascular health How lifestyle changes and mindset interventions can lessen cardiovascular risk Bio: Dr. Sanjay Bhojraj Dr. Sanjay Bhojraj is a board-certified Interventional Cardiologist turned Functional Medicine pioneer. After 15 years in conventional practice, he realized that true healing is not found in prescriptions alone—it’s in the power of food, sleep, movement, and breath. He’s the founder of Well12, a transformational health program, and a leading voice online where his viral content is helping millions rethink what it means to be healthy.
