edd9164d216c19945bea55d0825befe1a07fdae5.jpeg

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 and four other cardiologists share their daily eating habits.

Doctor Bishop follows an eight-hour eating window and fasts for 16 hours, recommending the Mediterranean diet and avoiding processed and sugar-dense foods.

Dr. Deirdre Matina follows a pescatarian Mediterranean diet, but is not too strict with herself and allows occasional indulgences.

Dr. Carmen Landreau eats a balanced diet, avoiding fad diets and not depriving herself of occasional treats.

Dr. C. Ngo Byrie Murs is predominantly pescatarian and refers to her eating habits as nutrition instead of diet.

Dr. Gramma G. Nallamothu is a vegetarian who enjoys spicy food and believes in eating mostly plants.

All five cardiologists stress the importance of good sleep, regular exercise, reducing stress, and periodic health checks and screening for overall good health. Doctor Bishop also recommends minimizing food with barcodes and avoiding processed and sugar-dense foods.

The Healthy Heart Network, of which Doctor Bishop is CEO, offers help to understand present heart health and improve the risk of heart attack in the future.

Almost every one of those cases could have been prevented.
