In Episode 915 of Savage Perspective Podcast, Robert Sikes and Tom Cowan ask whether coronary plaque is the true cause of heart attacks. Cowan shares his case for small-vessel damage, lost heart energy, acid buildup, and plaque as repair. They cover coronary calcium scores, stents, statins, fat metabolism, keto, structured water, sunlight, and movement. The talk then turns to Cowan's disputed views on viruses, contagion, immunity, cancer, genetics, and vaccines. It closes with a practical challenge: test claims, track your body's response, eat real food, move, get outside, build relationships, and own your health.</p><p><br></p><p>For more info visit: https://drtomcowan.com/</p><p><br></p><p>Get Keto Brick: https://www.ketobrick.com/</p><p><br></p><p>Subscribe to the podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/42cjJssghqD01bdWBxRYEg?si=1XYKmPXmR4eKw2O9gGCEuQ</p><p><br></p><p>Chapters:</p><p><br></p><p>0:00 - What Really Causes Heart Attacks?</p><p>0:42 - How to Falsify a Scientific Claim</p><p>2:10 - The Blocked-Artery Theory of Heart Attacks</p><p>5:18 - The 95% Blockage Paradox and Autopsy Findings</p><p>8:08 - Stents, Bypasses, and the Blockage Theory</p><p>10:08 - An Energy-and-Acid Theory of Heart Attacks</p><p>13:23 - Diabetes, Small Vessels, and Fat Metabolism</p><p>15:13 - A Forgotten Seed Extract for Heart Disease</p><p>17:02 - Stroke, Keto, and the Plaque Debate</p><p>19:02 - CAC Scans and the Protective Plaque Theory</p><p>21:48 - The Fourth Phase of Water</p><p>24:09 - What Moves Blood Through Capillaries?</p><p>28:39 - Does Drinking Charged Water Help?</p><p>30:36 - Viruses, Measles, and the Limits of Diagnosis</p><p>32:24 - How Virology Identifies a Virus</p><p>34:26 - Polio Experiments and Viral Culture</p><p>39:14 - Contagion or Shared Exposure?</p><p>41:55 - The 1918 Spanish Flu Prison Study</p><p>45:25 - Do Bacteria and Parasites Cause Disease?</p><p>49:32 - Fear, Vaccines, and Personal Agency</p><p>51:02 - Questioning the Immune System and Antibody Model</p><p>54:53 - A Different Theory of Cancer and Tumors</p><p>56:29 - Four Proposed Causes of Sickness</p><p>1:01:19 - Question Everything and Test It Yourself</p><p>1:02:21 - Taking Back Personal Agency</p><p>1:06:04 - Genetics, DNA, and the Double Helix</p><p>1:09:57 - Control, Faith, and Two Origin Stories</p><p>1:12:49 - Purpose, Homesteading, and Animals</p><p>1:15:00 - Websites, Clinic, and Closing</p>
