Sinopsis

This episode is brought to you by Paleovalley, AG1, and Mitopure.  Many people still believe that eating cholesterol and fat, especially saturated fat, causes heart attacks and that taking statin drugs is the only way to reduce your risk of heart attacks, but now we know the science says otherwise.

Dr. Cindy Geyer received her bachelor of science and doctor of medicine degrees, with honors, from the Ohio State University. She completed her residency in internal medicine at Strong Memorial Hospital in Rochester, NY, and is triple board certified in internal medicine, integrative medicine, and lifestyle medicine. She joined The UltraWellness Center in 2021 after practicing and serving as the medical director at Canyon
