Silicon Valley Health Institute | Atherosclerosis, Heart Disease, and Dementia - Peter Rogers, MD (March 2022) @SiliconValleyHealthInstitute | Uploaded June 2022 | Updated October 2024, 1 day ago.
“Atherosclerosis, Heart Disease, and Dementia” is the presentation shared by Peter Rogers, MD at the March 23rd. 2022 Zoom meeting of the Silicon Valley Health Institute.
Atherosclerosis is best known for causing myocardial infarction, but it is also the main cause of dementia. The common diseases of aging like hypertension, and diabetes are connected to atherosclerosis. I will explain what causes these diseases. The hope is that by understanding the diseases, people will be more motivated to improve their diet and lifestyle.
These diseases are poorly understood by most physicians, because the medical school textbooks are out of date. It is important to have a good theory of disease, because this guides prevention. When a person understands the actual causes of atherosclerosis and dementia. they are empowered to prevent these diseases.
Everyone has heard of the connection between atherosclerosis and cholesterol, but atherosclerosis actually begins as a blood clot. Everyone has heard of the connection between beta amyloid protein, and Alzheimer’s disease, but the vascular theories are more helpful.
The general concepts of disease causation also explain how atherosclerosis is connected to vision loss, hearing loss, back pain, arthritis, and cancer. These issues will be discussed.
