In this episode of "The Heart of Innovation," hosts Kym McNicholas and Dr. John Phillips delve into the groundbreaking advancements in limb salvage tools and techniques for patients with advanced stage peripheral artery disease, also known as Critical Limb Ischemia (CLI). Join us as we interview Howard Leonhardt, the Executive Chairman & CEO at Leonhardt Ventures LLC and Lionheart Health, a pioneering figure at the forefront of research and development in the field. Leonhardt sheds light on their team's innovative work in the development of bioelectrical stimulation signaling sequences, which have the remarkable ability to regulate the release of Klotho, a potent anti-aging and regeneration-promoting protein. If you are low in circulating Klotho you are aging more rapidly. Howard has patented a way to increase your circulating Klotho dramatically with bioelectric stimulation. Leonhardt Ventures is leading the charge as the world’s first Innovation Accelerator, with a focus on the convergence of bioelectrics & biologics for organ regeneration, longevity, wellness, and healing. Additionally, Lionheart Health is driving the commercialization of a full pipeline of Leonhardt patented inventions, targeting MedSpas and Sports Medicine Clinics, while also planning to establish numerous Lionheart Health Longevity and Wellness MedSpas over the next 5 years. Tune in to explore how this transformative technology platform featuring bioelectric stimulation controlled release of key anti-aging and health improvement proteins is poised to revolutionize not only limb salvage but also the broader landscape of longevity and wellness.

Amputations within the African American community occur at a staggering 3-4 times higher rate than their white counterparts, underscoring the urgent need to galvanize the community and other stakeholders to engage in candid discussions about the prevalent gaps in communication and care for a disease more prevalent and deadlier than all cancers combined, except lung cancer, known as peripheral artery disease (PAD). Hosts Kym McNicholas and Dr. John Phillips talk about the key takeaways from The Global PAD Association’s event series, "PAD: The Lived African American Experience," which seeks to provide a platform for diverse stakeholders to collaboratively develop tangible solutions to address these disparities that lead to people of color not getting appropriate testing and treatment to save their limbs and life. Also, in this episode of "The Heart of Innovation," Shannon shares her powerful life and limb saving story you don't want to miss that will drive you to run toward a second, third, even fourth opinion before consenting to any interventional or surgical procedure.
