Episode 456: Unexpected Findings from Beta-Blockers and Beyond

This week, Dr. Joel Kahn dives into surprising results from recent medical research. The most eye-opening? Women recovering from a heart attack with relatively preserved heart function were found to have higher mortality risk when discharged on beta-blockers — a finding that challenges 40 years of clinical practice. Dr. Kahn urges listeners to discuss these results with their own healthcare teams. Other unexpected studies are highlighted too, including new insights on taurine, spermidine, meal timing, ketogenic diets, aspirin therapy, and even sugar substitutes.
