Video Description

Today, we’re talking about Simon Hill’s personal experience with CVD, what prompted him to have early screening for heart disease and what his results have shown. Which is quite surprising. Simon has early signs of heart disease and now he has a decision to make about whether he embarks on early drug treatment or delays treatment to watch how it evolves. As many of us become more pragmatic about health screening, it’s a situation that a lot of us will find ourselves in. Especially with the rise in popularity of full-body scans. We also have a discussion around fats, the types of fats in the diet and how one may choose to lower their cholesterol with diet and lifestyle. We go on a virtual trip to the supermarket with Simon and discuss the framework for how to choose fats. The things you need to ask yourself about consuming fats including the dose and what you’re eating it with. Simon Hill, a physiotherapist and nutrition scientist, is dedicated to simplifying health and nutrition information. He began his career interested in the physiology and anatomy related to optimal athletic performance. Then, encouraged by his Dad's heart attack, he turned his attention to nutrition's role in preventing disease and optimising health. Concerned about misleading wellness industry trends, he completed a Master of Science in Human Nutrition at Deakin University. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LEARNING TO EAT WELL EVERY DAY πŸ₯— Download a FREE 7 day meal plan: https://tdk.link/mealplan_yt πŸ”₯ Learn about Inflammation - FREE 4 part mini-series here: https://tdk.link/infl_series_yt πŸ₯‘ Heal yourself with food: https://tdk.link/heal_yt 🎀 Listen to experts on the podcast: https://tdk.link/pod_yt πŸ‘¨πŸ½β€πŸ’» Browse articles on the website: https://tdk.link/web_yt πŸ“š Check out my cookbooks: https://tdk.link/books_yt LET'S BE FRIENDS πŸ“· Instagram: https://tdk.link/tdk_insta_yt πŸ“Ή Subscribe: https://tdk.link/ytsubscribe πŸ™‹πŸ½β€β™‚οΈ Facebook: https://tdk.link/tdk_fb_yt 🐦 Twitter: https://tdk.link/tdk_tw_yt πŸ‘” LinkedIn: https://tdk.link/tdk_li_yt
