We utilize an ultrafast CT Scan or electron beam (EBCT) machine to determine your coronary artery calcium (CAC) score. This can help find if an individual has heart disease at its very onset. Doing so can allow you to make changes that lead to nearly complete eradication. In addition, using the CAC score (also known as a heart scan) data, we can determine whether you are among the many people in the United States who are on a statin drug unnecessarily and can safely quit. Although CAC heart scan technology has been available for over 20 years, it has more acceptance in the United States than it has been protocolled for several years in our clinics.

Cancer is highly treatable when detected early – before it has metastasized or spread. Unfortunately, far too many people are not diagnosed at an early stage, and for some common malignancies, such as lung cancer, for six out of seven people, the disease has already metastasized by the time of diagnosis. Sadly, the prospects for cure drop dramatically when cancer is not localized at the time of diagnosis.

It is possible for the coronary arteries, which supply blood the heart, to become blocked as much as 70 – 80 percent or more without producing any symptoms at all. As a result, two out of three people discover that they have cardiovascular disease by suffering a heart attack as their first presenting indicator. These individuals receive no previous warning signs: no chest pain with exertion, no abnormal heart rhythms, no dizziness or shortness of breath. Their first indication of cardiovascular disease is that they suffer a heart attack, which half of the time proves fatal!
