Welcome to my podcast. I am Doctor Warrick Bishop, and I want to help you to live as well as possible for as long as possible. I’m a practising cardiologist, best-selling author, keynote speaker, and the creator of The Healthy Heart Network. I have over 20 years as a specialist cardiologist and a private practice of over 10,000 patients.

In this podcast, Doctor Warrick Bishop, a cardiologist, discusses strategies to prevent heart attacks and improve general health on a global scale. He highlights the high incidence of heart attacks in Australia, with one occurring almost every 10 minutes and over 20 people dying from a heart attack each day.

Doctor Bishop then discusses a recent study called Cosmos Mind, which examined the impact of vitamins and cocoa on the aging brain. The study found that a simple multivitamin mineral supplement offered some benefit, while cocoa did not.

Doctor Bishop suggests that a multivitamin mineral supplement may be beneficial for older populations with comorbidities. He also discusses the difference between cacao and cocoa and suggests that cacao, the less refined and more raw product, may have more active ingredients that could be beneficial for cognitive function.

Dr. Bishop emphasizes the importance of a holistic approach to health, including regular exercise, meditation, and a healthy diet. He also encourages listeners to check their risk of heart attack and provides a website for virtual heart check.

Every 10 minutes, someone in Australia suffers a heart attack. And 21 lives are lost daily because of it.

Almost every one of those cases could have been prevented.
