S7E8: Thinking Long-Term: LDL Exposure, Longevity Medicine, and the Future of Cardiovascular Prevention

How do we move the needle on cardiovascular prevention — not just in the clinic, but across entire systems and communities? In this episode of Lipid Insights, host Alan S. Brown, MD, MHA, MNLA sits down with Nihar R. Desai, MD, MPH, FNLA for a forward-thinking conversation on long-term LDL exposure and what it truly means to practice longevity medicine.

From the power of imaging as a patient education tool to the momentum behind the 2026 dyslipidemia guidelines, Dr. Desai shares his vision for a healthcare landscape where patients are empowered, systems are hardwired to deliver better care, and public education closes the gap between what we know and what gets done. A timely and thought-provoking listen for any clinician committed to moving cardiovascular prevention forward.
