Atherosclerosis Starts Decades Before a Heart Attack — Here Is How to Catch It
Join us for the next edition of Longevity Lunch & Learn—a 30-minute lunch & learn series from Liv, where we explore science-backed tools for healthy aging.
This session features Dr. Niklas Vetter, a physician specializing in personalized preventive medicine, trained in cardiology at Heidelberg University Hospital. After years in clinical cardiology, he made a deliberate shift to build a preventive medicine practice launching this spring. He translates advanced biomarker diagnostics, cardiorespiratory fitness data, and wearable insights into prevention strategies that fit his patients’ lifestyles.
His conviction: most cardiovascular events are preventable — if you start measuring and acting years before traditional medicine typically does.
In this session, Niklas will cover:
Why standard cardiometabolic risk assessment misses crucial biomarkers hiding in plain sight
How your fitness level predicts your cardiovascular future
How to detect atherosclerosis years before a first cardiac event — and which tools are worth using
A practical framework to measure and actively improve your cardiovascular health
Whether you're optimizing an already healthy heart or looking to identify early risk signals, you'll leave with a clear, evidence-based understanding of your cardiovascular health and concrete first steps to act on it.
