Ask a woman what disease she’s most afraid of and the answer will most likely be breast cancer. Tell her that heart disease kills twice as many women as breast cancer does and she’s shocked. Why? Because women aren’t being informed about the risks they’re facing globally with cardiovascular disease.

It’s more important than ever to have the right knowledge about our health so that we can make decisions and choices to protect and improve it. For both a better life now but more importantly, a full and long life with strong health so we can live the way we want as we age.

Today our guest is Stevie Snow, a holistic pharmacist in the US with over 30 years of practice experience and now on a mission to help you understand how to protect your health. Stevie is breaking down what cardiovascular disease is and helping you to know what you can do to improve your total health to minimise your risk of not just this disease but other illnesses and diseases.

In our conversation we explore:

The rising rates of cardiovascular disease and how it is currently the leading cause of death globally for men and women.
What cardiovascular disease is and how it can show-up in women.
Tips to get the right medical intervention if you think you might be having a heart attack, especially for women where symptoms are often different to those men experience.
The role of lifestyle factors in heart disease.
How blood sugar is the number one contributory factor to many diseases such as cardiovascular, and why for women in particular cutting sugar from your diet is key to building strong health.
Tips to avoid ultra processed foods.
Creating new habits through small gradual changes to shift your diet to one that protects your heart and brain health.
Why snacking might be causing more problems than you realise!
The impact of stress on your health.


About Stevie:
Stevie is a holistic pharmacist and practiced pharmacy in the US for over 30 years. She did Nuclear Pharmacy for almost 20 years - making radioactive drugs for cancer and cardiac imaging.

She had been healthy all her life so falling apart with a range of health issues at age 42 was a big shock. Stevie knew it had to do with stress but had no idea how to deal with it. After navigating her own and then her partner’s health struggles, Stevie knew her calling was in functional, holistic medicine and is now a Certified Lifestyle Medicine Practitioner and is currently enrolled at the School of Applied Functional Medicine. 

Stevie helps women get well and stay well using every tool in the box. She has helped many of her client reverse a range of chronic illnesses and autoimmune diseases including IBS, arthritis, type 2 diabetes, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, blood clots, fatigue, low blood sugar, and gut infections.
