My Heart Scan Shows VERY HIGH RISK Plaque | Dr. Michael Twyman

Mark Bell talks with cardiologist Dr. Michael Twyman to break down Mark’s actual heart scans and what they reveal about his cardiovascular health. Dr. Twyman walks through Mark’s plaque burden, the difference between soft and calcified plaque, why someone can feel perfectly healthy while cardiovascular disease develops in the background, and what can actually be done once plaque is found.They cover CAC scores vs. CT coronary angiograms, LDL, ApoB, Lp(a), blood pressure, inflammation, saturated fat and ketogenic diets, anabolic steroids, exercise, sleep, stress, genetics, nattokinase, supplements, lipid-lowering medications, and the markers Dr. Twyman believes people should routinely monitor.Mark also reflects on years of extreme powerlifting, performance-enhancing drug use, high blood pressure, and dietary experimentation—and why being strong, lean, active, or metabolically healthy doesn’t necessarily mean your arteries are free of plaque.Follow Dr. Michael Twyman: DrTwyman.com0:00 Understanding High Risk Plaque Findings4:20 Dr. Twyman's Transition to Preventative Care8:15 The Truth About Exercise and Heart Stress12:40 Can Plaque Actually Be Reversed17:10 Why ApoB Matters More Than LDL22:30 Supplements for Arterial Health28:15 Nattokinase Research and Bleeding Risks34:50 Reviewing Mark Bell's CTTA Results41:10 Soft Plaque vs. Hard Plaque Explained47:35 Choosing the Right Heart Scan53:20 Saturated Fat and Genetic Sensitivity1:00:15 Lean Mass Hyper Responders1:06:40 Impact of Stress and Sleep on Arteries1:12:55 The Mediterranean Diet for Heart Health1:18:10 Essential Blood Markers to Monitor1:23:45 Final Recommendations for LongevityIf you found this information helpful, please hit the like button and subscribe for more deep dives into health and performance.
