Lifestyle Modification in the Setting of New Prevention Therapies
Guest: R. Scott Wright, M.D.
Host: Stephen L. Kopecky, M.D.
Cardiovascular prevention has largely focused on new pharmaceutical therapies over the past several decades. Often overlooked are the critical roles of diet, exercise, sleep and other individual behaviors which underpin all of preventive measures for improved health. The podcast will discuss how busy clinicians can emphasize and incorporate these measures in their daily practices and lives.
Topics Discussed:
- Is diet still important?
- What is the best heart healthy diet?
- What are the benefits of a healthy diet outside of lipid lowering?
- How do new therapies work with good vs. poor dietary adherence?
