🩺ABOUT DR. BREWER
Dr. Brewer started as an Emergency Doctor. After seeing too many preventable heart attacks, he went to Johns Hopkins to learn Preventive Medicine. While there, he went on to run the post-graduate training program (residency) in Preventive Medicine. From there, he made a career of practicing and managing preventive medicine and primary care clinics. His later role in this area was Chief Medical Officer for Premise, which has close to 1,000 primary care/prevention clinics. He was also the Chief Medical Officer for MDLIVE, the second largest telemedicine company. More recently, he founded PrevMed, a heart attack, and stroke prevention clinic.
At PrevMed, we focus on heart attack, stroke, and cognitive decline. We serve patients who have already experienced an event as well as those who have not developed a diagnosis or event. Dr. Brewer provides services via telemedicine. We find a lot of undiagnosed prediabetes or insulin resistance. Treating unrecognized risk factors like prediabetes allows reduction of risk and prevention of disease.

Hello Dr . I am 67 years old and my father and uncles had heart attack younger than 50 . After see you on u tube . I lost 22 ponds and started on k2 about 6 years ago . My calcium score was 400 and now after 6 years is 450 and showing no progression of calcification in arteries. Taking 200 mmg of K2 MK7 and 5000 unit of vitamin D3 daily. I think K2 is doing what it is suppose to do for my calcification problem. Thanks to you .
My older brother goes to Mayo for a "once a year" total check-up. They still swear by stress-tests as a diagnostic tool. You should go over there and set them straight!
I just attended a new lecture at UCLA on K2-MK7 very positive to keeping calcium out
What is the dosage ?
Vitamin K2 is present in fermented products and is a vital cofactor for the post-translational γ-carboxylation of glutamic acid residues in a number of proteins.
Vitamin K dependent calcification-inhibiting protein i.e. matrix gla-protein (MGP) in the carboxylated form is what is needed to inhibit soft tissue calcification.
Elevated uncarboxylated matrix Gla protein (ucMGP) levels indirectly reflects VK deficiency and are associated with a higher risk of cardiovascular events
Could you say that on layman terms?
@@sixpackbinky I am lazy and writing like the above is so much more succinct than dummy level language. So what I will say is that vitamin K2 is what helps vitamin D do much of its work safely,. As the proteins mentioned above are 'ordered' up by the vitamin D and then modified to fully functional form per vitamin k2.
Also Health Canada chose a permitted dose of vitamin K2 that is too small, IMHO.
The body and it’s methylation is a tangle. Complicated content but you did an excellent job presenting. Thank you for new information. Would love a future talk on nanotechnology in this space. Thanks again and happy hiking!
I'm considering ordering some natto powder from Amazon. Probably a lot more economical. Thanks again Doc!
My CAC score is 5552, my aortic calcium score is 1856. Not diabetic, off bp meds after having been on them more than 40 years, and after having lost 100 lbs. on Ketogenic way of eating since Sept., 2020. I do take D3 and K2 among other vitamins.
Thanks for sharing
Excellent job Cindy
@@bartrobinson2103 Thank you
Wow! That is incredible! Way to take control of your health. I just had my first CAC score and got 368. I’ve been keto for four years plus. Can’t wait to see next years score. Hoping it’s lower!
Can you tell us what other supplements you use?
Yahusha bless you !!!
I love these Q&A videos so informative.
I can’t get a Cimt in Queensland Australia the Dr and a cardiologist I rang didn’t even know about them it’s very frustrating.
I had a positive CAC I’m on 5mg crestor would prefer to maybe only take it a few times a week.
I’m going to see if my dr will give me a CT angiogram I’m hoping my diet over the last 18 months and statin therapy will show a decent result.
Thanks again for all you do
I agree with you - your diet is a bad it doesn't matter what you do
I live in Pensacola, florida. I am 71, had minor heart attack at 54. and a stroke last year. I have no visual effects from either. I have reversed Fatty liver and Pre-diabetes and have been low carb for one year and carnivore for one month. Can anyone reccommend a "low carb friendly" primary and cardiologist that is within a few hours drive from me? Thank you in advance.
Dr Brewer what statin should a diabetic take. Prevastatin?
Low dose rosuvastatin or even better pitavastatin if you can afford it.
Dr Brewer, Thank you for your Lectures! Could you please include the vitamin K2 MK7 or MK4 and dosages or perhaps the Amazon or other Links with your Vitamins Recommendations... Many thanks! ❤
Both my wife and I notice that we developed planter fasciitis after starting higher doses of statins. When I changes doses and type nine went away. When my wife lowered hers it went away. Coincidence?
I bet not a coincidence.
Thanks Dr. Brewer, I’ve learned so much! I am 47 yo male who just retired military and healthy. 2 years ago I had a contrast CT scan of my heart and had a CAC score of 2. The cardiologist didn’t seem concerned, but I was freaked out. I heard on this video anyone with plaque should be on a statin. Should I? I will say my numbers are in range, I got my LP(a) and CRP done and both in range. They did every other test, echo, stress test. Nothing abnormal. Should I be on a Statin? Also, I’m in Montgomery, can we get a clinic please?😂😂
Might get some additional blood work done through your website to get some other markers checked as well.
Like Dr Brewer says, a statin isn't warranted unless you have any existing heart disease, as in heart or artery blockage. And with the tests that you had, they would have seen that.
@@RD9_Designs thanks so much for your reply. Just wondering due to my limited knowledge, is a CAC score of a 2 considered heart disease? I just assumed anything above a 0 would be considered in that category. Thanks again.
@Raybon Studios : I Googled it, and a CAC score of 2 is very very good! It means that you have 'minimal chance of heart disease'. A direct quote from the website.
I only found out that I had blockages in my coronary arteries 5 years ago, and had a cardiologist who wasn't very good at explaining things, so I was running scared for a couple of years after my first set of tests... but it turns out, my test results were normal! I did tell him off for that.
I really like Dr Brewer, but he's not good about answering comments. I've asked several questions, and got no response, but if I make a good point, I get "thanks".
PS... You can get your regular doctor to run any blood test you want, just ask them!
@@Brandon-Wayne in case it doesn't tell you (because I accidentally backspaced over your username), I wrote you a reply.
@@RD9_Designs I think 100 to 300 is moderate plaque. Anything higher needs observation and possibly medical intervention. Mine was 0, according to the score, you are fine.
Have you looked at Nattokinase, this is been used by the Japanese and it cleared my blood clot in my leg
Hello Doc. You're doing a great job. Thanks for sharing your time and knowledge with us..
My Wife passed away about a year ago at 36 from what the doctors described as post "Partum cardio mayopathy" ( not sure if I got the spelling right).
She battled the disease for about 7yrs before passing...
She never had high blood pressure, was not obsessed, lived a relatively healthy life style and still got the heart enlargement after delivering our 4th baby...
Till date, the doctors couldn't come up with a particular reason for her heart disease...
Could you shed some light on what causes heart enlargement and is it hereditary?..
My concern is for my kids in the future...
Thanks..
My condolences to you and your family. I have 3 friends that got heart problems from the damn Vaccine.. Please check out the stats on that Covid jab and remember and remember for your children also... That is one thing you can do for them and yourself to reduce the heart damage. All the best to your all
@@lindamorgan2678 He said she battled the disease for 7 years before her death. The jab did not cause her disease.
@@jmsimes Hard to say, but if she got Covid you would say that caused her death. The jab creates inflammation and the spike protein is playing havoc on hearts and other organs the spike protein is in the virus and in the jab. It was SUPPOSED to stay at the injection site but does not. Her heart problem is not always a death sentence less than 20%. Go look at the stats and info yourself. Good Lord that jab is inflamming children's hearts and men fit men. Where have you been ? They are trying to ban it all over the world due to excess death and disabilites 50% of the children will be dead from the Myocarditis in 5 years only hope is a heart transplant. This poor man and the family will know if she got alot worse after the jab. My friend died and another with heart problems AF NOW has congestive heart failure right after the 3rd one.
Hello dear Great Dad, so sorry for your Loss😢. But you must be a great father! You should find Cardiology University Clinic nearby or a good Lipid Cardiologist and have your Kids get Genetic Testing currently being performed (Invitae, NY Genetic Center, and other Research Tests available for free to relatives of those with Heart Desease & Endocrinology Desease (NIH). Call every close University Clinics and Heart Lipid Cardiologists and Heart Surgery Doctors to see if anyone of them even those who were operating and taking care of your wife for 7 years would be willing to send your children and maybe your wife's relatives to get such testing, as maybe they could benefit from Earlier Diet and Exercise and avoiding Prepackaged Foods and Obesity (BMI should be for IDEAL WEIGHT and maintained with Low Saturated Fats foods and especially Fast Food and anything packaged and not cooked from fresh)... You should buy Food Processor and try to make colorful Salad with Leafy Greens and Raw Veggies as at least 1/2 of each Plate for yourself and your Kids, and eat at least 1/2 of palm size serving of Lean Protein... ❤
Great research
Thank you doc. God bless!
Ortho Molecular K-Force has 5,000 IU of D3 and 180 mcg of K2 MK-7
I also take 360 mcg of K2 MK-7 along with this, so a total of 540 mcg
@@dylanb_2011 This mat be too much as D3 and that much K2 will also pull other minerals to one's bones leaving very important minerals to not be doing their things in other parts of one's body as well as overloading the bones with other minerals.
@@ethimself5064 Thanks. In this Live, Dr. Brewer himself recommends at least 400 mcg of K2 and says there are no concerns about how much K2 you can take. I try to keep my Vitamin D in the 60 to 80 range.
Hi Jimmy. I've been taking Healthy Origins brand which has 2000 IU vitamin D and 200 microgram K2. My last D3 measurement was 80 and I'm going to start adding an additional 150 mcg. K2. I just hoping it's helping in some way because it's not cheap!
@@bartrobinson2103 I definitely have noticed a difference in my health with improved D (my last measurement was 75). I have more energy, and almost never get sick now. The K2 is a long-term investment; one needs a lot of patience to see the desired results. I am taking it with hopes it might lessen or slow the plaque buildup in my arteries, but if it also helps with insulin resistance then that is an added benefit.
Thankyou for the vid and info .
I had a doct yhat gave me vitimin d 2 huge amount thought i was going to die .
Stopped and got one at a health food store .
DR - You had natto in your coffee today ! Yikes!! You are a tough man.
Great video. Keep it up!!
How can we get in the next pilot program (if there will be one)?
Call 859-721-1414
Dr. Brewer what dosage do you consider low dose statin? I am a new viewer and thank my lucky stats I ran across you.
I've been eating really good I'm 58 225lbs 6' 3" am i to heavy? I lost 100 should I be eating the most greens.
My internist won't even give credence to me being pre-diabetic. She says her mother has diabetes and takes insulin - no problem!!!
Yes. It is frustrating
Dear Dr Brewer, could you please do a video why some better Statins such as Pitavastatin Livalo and Zypitamag are not covered by Medicare Insurance and Supplemental Medicare Plans? Also, how does Medicare reducing doctors fees has harmed us all? Now, you get 5 min appointments with 6 months interval if you can even find a Cardiologist or Endocrinologist willing to accept your Merocare Supplemental Insurance Plan and the profits are with Insurance Companies and Big Pharma... The more people get useless Treadmill Heart Test and Sono, the faster they would not be a cost to Insurances as people just die, and thus Calcium Score Heart CT Scans wouldn't be an easy thing for a doctor to get approved for the patients (especially on Medicare when they don't have Private Employer coverage while needed as an Employee)...😢
Wanted k2 info...after scanning most of this video...gave up...where is it?
At about 28 min. K2 improves insulin sensitivity. 👌
Fabulous discussion! So grateful to have found your channel!
Several questions… do you research your brands of dark chocolate/cacao for cadmium levels? I’ve heard they some can be high and can cause a host of issues, including kidney.
Regarding cholesterol, I am genetically predisposed to high normal fasting glucose. I’ve managed it well with berberine and am not insulin resistant. HDL is high, triglicerides are low (great ratio), LDL about 100. VLDL 14. Large fluffy particles., low HSCRP and Homocysteine
An abdominal ultrasound for a gallbladder polyp a decade ago when my diet was less desirable, noted”small amount of plaque in abdominal artery”
I’m not overweight, eat a Mediterranean diet, exercise every day. My doc wants me on a statin. I’m resisting. Help! Thank you.
HOWWWWW MUCH? Dose????
28:55 - I have no idea what menatetrenone K2 is but 30 mg??
Menatetronone is the other form of K2 - aka MK4. I understand it is used in Japan as a treatment for osteoporosis at doses of 45mg/day. So a lot bigger dosing than Mk7.
@@goodgardenofpeas Thanks👍
You put natto in your coffee?? You put slimy fermented beans in your coffee?
It IS his coffee. 😊
I had a ct score 390, then angiogram , put stent in , now they tell me I can’t have another ct scan as the stent interferes with the reading. They then did a CT Angiogram. Question. Does the CT angiogram have a “score” like the CT scan score so I can measure progress ?
Darn, I missed this live
Age 50 with CAC score of 100 for my right aortic....just how bad is this? I'm freaking out after finding this out. Anyone, let me know how significant CAC score is vs. actual heart attack chance...
There aren't too many specialists in an area of medicine these days who will take one, foreign-conducted 11-year-old study, unreplicated so far as any information I see here, and draw conclusions from it as if they are certainties as opposed to later studies. Odd way of approaching science--kind of reminds me of how the psychoanalytic fields do that all the time. They have a bit of an excuse, though, I guess, since they have had such a difficult time authentically replicating so many of their findings in general. 😆
OR sudden cardiac arrest can come from the unsafe and ineffective Vax.
Paxlovid rebound is not really a thing....this info since the the streaming over a year ago....
Just a simple question, why phisicians resist to use metformin even if I ask for?
It happens a lot. Hopkins researchers have demonstrated most docs don't understand prediabetes.
I tried to sign up to contact you to become a patient but your questionier sheet will not take my answers and you question about being human will also not take my answer???
Thanks for sharing. I asked Sam to help you.
How do you test that inflammation has gone down?
I test my CRP and also GlycA
@@crystalgarber9306 it must be hs-CRP. Year 2022 was the 1st time I add this test in my blood work and after 16 months of low carb diet. Result is 0.2mg/l. Apparently also to target the WBC count at lowest value in testing testing range. Even if WBC count is in the middle of the testing range it is indicating inflammation somewhere in the body.
Can you sort your cough out it is most irritating and perhaps if you cut out the waffle and hestitation and got straight to the point it would be a far better podcast. They all do not have to last an hour.
