50% of Sudden Cardiac Deaths Happen With No Warning | Dr. Kevin White

Episode Description

In America, sudden cardiac death kills roughly 300,000 to 400,000 people every year. And in nearly half of those cases, there was no diagnosed heart disease beforehand. Meaning, the person looked fine right up until they weren't.

Dr. Kevin White spent over two decades in the emergency room watching that pattern repeat itself, treating people his age for problems that had been building for years without anyone catching them. That shift is what pushed him out of reactive medicine and into a practice built around finding what's wrong before it becomes an emergency.

His approach starts with a full diagnostic workup instead of a guess, pulling bloodwork, body composition scans, and metabolic markers most doctors never order. From there, he gets into peptides, rapamycin, and PCSK9 inhibitor therapy, and how each one plays a role in his patients' longevity plans.


"I just met a guy who's 88 and goes heli skiing six, seven times a year. I want to live like that." ~ Dr. Kevin White
