65 | What's Actually Clogging Your Arteries? Low Carb, Weight Loss, Cholesterol, and Metabolic Health with Dr. Philip Ovadia

Hey Friend,

What if meat and butter are not what is actually clogging your arteries?

In Episode 65 of Carnivore Lifestyle for Women, Cristina Clark sits down with Dr. Philip Ovadia, MD, a cardiothoracic surgeon, founder of I Fix Hearts, and author of Stay Off My Operating Table and his newest book, Stay Off My Kitchen Table.

This conversation is bold, eye-opening, and important if you have ever been told to fear red meat, avoid butter, lower your cholesterol, eat less, move more, and accept midlife weight gain as normal.

Dr. Ovadia shares his own story of being a heart surgeon who was morbidly obese, pre-diabetic, and headed toward his own operating table. He lost nearly 100 pounds with low carb, reversed his pre-diabetes, and changed the way he looks at heart disease, cholesterol, metabolic health, food, and prevention.

In this episode, we talk about what may actually be clogging your arteries, why cholesterol is not the whole story, why insulin resistance and inflammation matter, what CAC scans can show, why low carb changed Dr. Ovadia's own health, and why he says meat is medicine.

One of the clearest things Dr. Ovadia says in this conversation is:

"It's not just about heart disease. It's about metabolic disease in general."

This episode is for you if you want to understand your body, your labs, your weight, your symptoms, your food, and what may be driving the health issues you have been told are just aging, perimenopause, or menopause.
