90. What Your Wearable Is Trying to Tell You About Your Heart

Your Nervous System Is Killing You — Not Your Cholesterol You bought the wearable. You're tracking your steps. You got your cholesterol checked and everything came back fine. So why does your body still feel like it's running a race it never signed up for? Here's what nobody is telling you: 30 to 40% of heart attacks have nothing to do with clogged arteries. They happen because the nervous system is broken. And yours might be — right now — without a single symptom to show for it. Dr. Terri sits down with Dr. Jim LaValle — naturopathic doctor, pharmacist, and one of the most decorated researchers in integrative medicine — for a conversation that reframes everything you thought you knew about heart health. Recorded live at an EVEXIAS training event, this episode breaks down the nervous system's role as the hidden driver behind cardiovascular disease, chronic illness, weight gain, gut dysfunction, and hormone breakdown. This one is for anyone who feels constantly wired, can't fully recover, or has been told their heart looks fine while their body is screaming otherwise. What you'll discover: Why 30–40% of heart attacks are nervous system events — not plaque events The three numbers you can measure at home today that reveal your true cardiovascular risk What heart rate variability actually means and why yours is probably too low Why your resting heart rate above 62 is quietly increasing your cardiac risk with every point How shallow breathing keeps your nervous system locked in fight or flight all day The gut-brain-heart connection: why sympathetic dominance is driving SIBO, H. Pylori, and dysbiosis Why postmenopausal women are dying of heart disease at higher rates than men — and what estradiol has to do with it Box breathing: the free three-minute protocol that reversed a CEO's ulcerative colitis in one year The supplement stack Dr. LaValle actually uses — phospholipids, adaptogens, magnesium, Theanine, and more Why hydrogen inhalation took his sleep efficiency from 92% to 96% and added an hour of sleep The bottom line: You don't need a cardiologist to start protecting your heart today. You need to understand your nervous system — and this episode is where that starts. The Dr. Terri Show is presented by EVEXIAS Health Solutions.
