Heart disease continues to hold the devastating title of the world’s number one killer, claiming more lives annually than any other disease. Despite billions of dollars spent on medications, surgeries, and research, the rates of heart disease are only increasing. The current approach is clearly failing. It’s time for a paradigm shift—one that focuses on holistic heart health prevention, healing, and thriving. Read more from this holistic cardiologist. 

The Broken System: Why Conventional Medicine Isn’t Enough

Conventional medicine often treats heart disease as an isolated problem, relying on prescription drugs, invasive procedures, and temporary fixes. While these interventions can sometimes save lives in the short term, they do little to address the root causes of heart disease. Worse, they often neglect the interconnected nature of the human body, where everything from nutrition to stress plays a critical role in heart health.

We believe that you deserve more. You deserve to live to 100 years (and beyond!) with a healthy, vibrant heart. The 100 Year Heart Method provides a comprehensive, holistic approach designed to help you not only avoid heart disease but also thrive in every aspect of your health.


The 100 Year Heart Method: Four Pillars of Holistic Heart Health

The 100 Year Heart Method is built on four core pillars: Thrival Nutrition, Thrival Lifestyle, Thrival Biohacking, and Thrival UltraDiagnostics. Each pillar works together to support optimal heart health, helping you build a foundation for a long, healthy life.

1. Thrival Nutrition: Food as Medicine

The foods you eat are the building blocks of your heart and overall health. Unfortunately, the modern diet is loaded with ultra-processed foods, refined sugars, and inflammatory oils that wreak havoc on your cardiovascular system.

The 100 Year Heart Method emphasizes a nutrient-dense, whole-foods diet that includes:

  • Pasture-raised animal products, such as organ meats, for essential vitamins and minerals.
  • Wild-caught seafood, rich in omega-3 fatty acids for reducing inflammation.
  • Organic, low-toxin produce, free from pesticides and harmful chemicals.
  • Heart-specific superfoods, such as bison organs (like in Kickstart My Heart) and our Wild Salmon Roe, which are loaded with nutrients your heart craves.

2. Thrival Lifestyle: Habits for a Healthy Heart

Your daily habits are just as important as your diet. The 100 Year Heart Method promotes lifestyle changes that optimize heart health, including:

  • Sunshine: Smart sunshine exposure boosts vitamin D levels, improves mood, and supports cardiovascular health.
  • Movement: Daily exercise, whether walking, strength training, or yoga, keeps your heart strong.
  • Stress Reduction: Chronic stress is a major contributor to heart disease. Practices like meditation, deep breathing, and chiropractic care can help you manage stress naturally.
  • Toxin Avoidance: From harmful chemicals in personal care products to mold mycotoxins in your home, reducing your toxic load is critical for heart health.
  • Thrival Mindset: Find your happy with faith, gratitude, purpose and community.

3. Thrival Biohacking: Optimize Your Body’s Performance

Biohacking involves using science-backed strategies to optimize your body’s performance. For heart health, the 100 Year Heart Method includes:

  • Nitric Oxide Optimization: Using foods like beets and arugula or supplements to support blood vessel function.
  • Blue Light Reduction: Limiting exposure to artificial blue light, which disrupts circadian rhythms and may harm cardiovascular health.
  • Smart Supplements: Targeted nutrients like L-arginine, omega-3s, and astaxanthin provide additional support for a thriving heart.

4. Thrival UltraDiagnostics: Discover and Address Your Root Causes

One of the key failures in conventional cardiology is the reliance on outdated diagnostic tools. Stress tests and CT scans are not effective predictors of heart attacks. Instead, the 100 Year Heart Method uses cutting-edge diagnostics, such as:

  • Oxidative Stress Testing: To assess your body’s balance between free radicals and antioxidants.
  • Micronutrient Testing: To identify deficiencies that could lead to heart dysfunction.
  • Hormone Testing: To uncover imbalances in cortisol, aldosterone, and other critical regulators of heart health.

These advanced diagnostics help identify and address the root causes of heart disease before it becomes life-threatening.


A Vision for the Future of Heart Health

At Natural Heart Doctor, we believe that heart disease is preventable and even reversible when approached holistically. The 100 Year Heart Method is more than a program—it’s a lifestyle, a mindset, and a commitment to living vibrantly.

By nourishing your body with the right foods, adopting heart-healthy habits, optimizing your body’s performance, and using advanced diagnostics, you can achieve what modern medicine so often fails to deliver: a long, healthy, and thriving life.


Take the First Step to Your 100 Year Heart

The time for change is now. Heart disease is not inevitable, and you don’t have to follow the same path as the millions who suffer from this preventable condition. The 100 Year Heart Method offers a clear, actionable roadmap to holistic heart health.

Are you ready to transform your health and take charge of your future? Join us at Natural Heart Doctor and discover the 100 Year Heart Method. Together, we can build a world where heart disease is no longer the number one killer.

About Dr. Lauren Lattanza NMD, FACC

Dr. Lattanza Office Visit with Patient

As a Naturopathic Physician, I am trained to treat the whole person and get to the root cause of disease.

I went to Arizona State University where I graduated with a bachelor’s degree in psychology with a depth in physiology and minor in Spanish. After my undergraduate degree I was working on prerequisite classes towards medical school, which is when I came to learn that my values identified best with the principles of naturopathic medicine. I knew that I wanted to help patients identify the causes of disease and be able to offer treatments which would improve their health rather than simply treating symptoms.

I dedicated the next 4 years to the Southwest College of Naturopathic Medicine in Tempe, Arizona where I attained my Doctorate of Naturopathic Medicine. I served as Class President all 4 years, Board of Trustees – Student Trustee, spoke as the Club President for our branch of Toastmasters, and was voted by my peers and attending physicians to earn the Outstanding Leadership Award for the Class of 2020. Throughout medical school I took it upon myself to work alongside MDs, DOs, chiropractors, and functional medicine practitioners in addition to naturopathic physicians.

As a Spanish speaking student, I was able to volunteer with community clinics around Phoenix and provide free healthcare to low-income families. Due to this combined exposure, I came to find my passion in treating cardiometabolic and digestive disorders that are all too common, yet largely preventable. I took the opportunity to learn the broad spectrum of healthcare so I can ensure that I am able to provide my patients with the best options.
