Description
Naked Heart is now hosted by Author Dr Leatham's cardiometabolic health channel launched 1st June 2026 www.vat-trap.com. What better topic than a look at recent ACC/AHA guidelines for cholesterol targets and no note that cardiovascular deaths fell 70–80% in sixty years — one of medicine's greatest triumphs. But progress is now slowing. Visceral fat, not LDL-C, is the upstream driver of the four real epidemic diseases: atrial fibrillation, heart failure, type 2 diabetes, and dementia. The VAT-TRAP four-pillar framework addresses all four simultaneously.
