## Resource

🔥 Ever wonder if some cardiovascular problems begin years before a diagnosis… and whether earlier intervention could actually change the outcome? Read UnCurable to explore a deeper perspective on root-cause medicine, prevention, and long-term health resilience. What if some of the most important cardiovascular warning signs… are the ones standard testing often overlooks? In this episode of Made for Health, Dr. Aaron Hartman and Dr. Christian Jenski conclude their cardiovascular series by sharing real patient stories that highlight how root-cause medicine can uncover hidden drivers of vascular disease, stroke risk, inflammation, and metabolic dysfunction. Through a series of clinical cases, they explore how markers like homocysteine, LP(a), micronutrient deficiencies, environmental toxin exposure, hormone imbalance, and chronic inflammation can contribute to cardiovascular disease long before traditional testing identifies a problem. The conversation also highlights the importance of patient advocacy, early intervention, and looking beyond conventional risk models. This episode emphasizes that cardiovascular disease is rarely caused by one single factor, and that personalized care, education, and systems-based thinking can help uncover risks earlier and support better long-term outcomes. Key Topics Covered How elevated homocysteine may contribute to strokes and vascular inflammation The role of methylation and B vitamins in cardiovascular and neurological health Why micronutrient deficiencies are commonly overlooked in modern healthcare How LP(a) can increase cardiovascular risk even when traditional cholesterol markers appear normal The connection between menopause, hormone changes, and vascular aging How chronic stress and cortisol dysregulation may affect cardiovascu…
