The Journey to Vitality: Unearthing the Mysteries of Cholesterol and Heart Health with Dr. Georgia Nab
Season 13: Ep. 563
Heart Health Month opens with a powerful, eye-opening conversation on cholesterol, root-cause healing, and whole-person wellness. Dr. Georgia Nabs explore why cholesterol is so misunderstood, the real story behind statins, and how inflammation, blood sugar, liver health, and lifestyle choices all intersect to shape heart health. From functional testing and advanced diagnostics to simple, practical daily shifts, this episode reframes what it truly means to care for your heart. Blending science, compassion, and lived experience, the conversation invites listeners to move beyond fear-based medicine and into empowered, informed, and proactive wellness—where education becomes the foundation for lasting health and vitality.
Key Takeaways:
- True heart health begins by understanding root causes, not just managing symptoms or lab numbers.

- Inflammation, blood sugar balance, and liver health play a central role in cardiovascular wellness.
- Empowered patients ask better questions and become active participants in their healing journey.
- Sustainable wellness comes from education, consistency, and small daily choices that compound over time.
