Dr. Christopher Davis, triple board-certified cardiologist and functional medicine expert, reveals why the real root of heart disease isn’t cholesterol—it’s toxins, inflammation, and oxidative stress.

After a decade placing stents, Dr. Davis saw he wasn’t treating the real causes of heart disease. At Reveal Vitality, he now helps patients uncover toxins, reduce inflammation, and prevent heart attacks.

In this episode, we break down why toxins are showing up in almost every patient, the surprising link between saunas and detoxification, and how women in their 30s and 40s can catch early heart disease warning signs long before standard testing would.

WE TALK ABOUT: 

05:00 – From stents to root causes: Why Dr. Davis shifted into functional medicine

11:00 – The alarming findings from environmental toxin testing

17:10 – How to use sauna and detox strategies safely (including during breastfeeding)

26:25 – The genetic markers you need to test for heart disease risk

39:30 – Why women’s heart disease symptoms are vague and often ignored

51:00 – COVID and spike protein damage to the vascular system

56:00 – The #1 test Dr. Davis wants you to take right now
