In today’s interview, I get to speak with biochemical engineer, Ivor Cummins, also known as the Fat Emperor, about the Coronary Artery Calcium (CAC) score and why it is the best and most reliable measure of heart disease we have.

Ivor is very passionate about researching the root causes of chronic diseases that are increasingly prevalent in today’s society.
Being the current CPO of Irish Heart Disease Awareness he is also on a mission to prevent heart attack and strokes.
Each year seemingly healthy people, with no known risk factors die prematurely of heart attacks. Routinely preformed CV risk tests can often come back clear and there can be no prior warning until it’s too late.
Today we get a chance to talk about The Coronary Artery Calcification (CAC) scan; a cardiovascular diagnostic test that can diagnose the level of heart disease present directly and empower people who are high at risk to take action to stop disease progression.
If you know someone who is interested in learning more about the Coronary Artery Calcification (CAC) score (heart scan) and why it’s important in determining heart disease as well as risk of heart attack, this interview is for them.
I really enjoyed this interview with Ivor who shared some invaluable information that not many people may be aware of. He explains why commonly used heart attack risk testing often misses heart problems. For an accurate assessment of the level of our coronary arteries health the CAC scan is the best place to start.

Apricot Kernels – Organic or Not?
There is a lot of confusion regarding apricot kernels and whether or not they must be organic in order to be effective or nutritive. This article attempts to explain the reasons for using organic produce and set minds at ease regarding non-organic apricot kernels.
Apricot Kernels – Some Work, Some Don’tPeople don’t realize the significant range of amygdalin content of the apricot kernels being sold as “bitter” varieties. 60 apricot kernels of one variety are all that is required for a daily dose of 2,000 mg of amygdalin. In another variety of “bitter” apricot kernels, 250 kernels would have to be consumed in order to achieve 2,000 mg. However, the people using this variety are still adhering to common dosage guidelines, which means, at best, they’re likely only receiving 120 mg of amygdalin, and that’s at 60 apricot kernels per day.
