## Resource

In this episode, I sit down with interventional cardiologist Dr. Columbus Batiste to examine heart disease beyond blocked arteries. We trace how endothelial damage, cholesterol, inflammation, and chronic stress contribute to atherosclerosis, then look at how fiber-rich plant foods, movement, sleep, relationships, and purpose can support healing. We also discuss why access, belonging, and community resources are inseparable from cardiovascular health. - - - - - About the Guest: Dr. Columbus Batiste is an interventional cardiologist, author, speaker, and nationally respected leader in lifestyle medicine. After years of treating advanced cardiovascular disease through procedures, the loss of his father inspired him to focus more deeply on nutrition, stress, and the conditions driving disease. Through his clinical work, Healthy Heart Nation, and community outreach, he helps bring practical health education and resources to churches, barbershops, and underserved communities. His work reflects the shared belief at the heart of A Regenerative Life: healing people also requires strengthening the environments and communities in which they live. - - - - - Social Handles: Website: https://drbatiste.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/healthyheartdoc/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/drbatiste/ - - - - - The Plantrician Project Website: https://plantricianproject.org/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/plantricianproject/ https://www.instagram.com/drscottstollofficial/ Facebook: https://web.facebook.com/plantricianproject/ - - - - - PODCAST Thank you for listening.
