Dr. John ScialesAtrial fibrillation isn’t just a rhythm problem—it’s a signal of deeper metabolic and inflammatory disease. This article explains the root cause beneath the surface and why treating the “fire,” not just the rhythm, changes long-term outcomes.
Dr. John ScialesHeart disease and diabetes are not separate, both stem from insulin resistance. Long before sugar rises, inflammation and vascular damage begin. “Normal” labs can miss it. Early metabolic testing and imaging reveal hidden disease and allow prevention at the root.
Dr. John ScialesNattokinase, a fibrin-degrading enzyme from fermented soy, may influence clot biology. But cardiovascular disease begins years earlier with metabolic dysfunction, inflammation, and plaque formation.
Dr. John ScialesEthnicity can shift cardiometabolic risk earlier and silently—often with “normal” labs and reassuring stress tests. Learn the biology of insulin resistance, visceral fat, and vascular injury—and how precision testing can catch risk early.
