Warrick graduated from the University of Tasmania, School of Medicine, in 1988. He completed his advanced training in cardiology in Hobart, Tasmania, becoming a fellow of the Royal Australian College of Physicians. A number of years ago something incredible, an amazing coincidence, happened that started Doctor Warrick Bishop on the mission to prevent heart attacks rather than try to cure them. He was driving to work one day when he stopped at a commotion by the side of the road. A fun runner had collapsed during a fun run with a heart attack. He helped in his resuscitation only to find out that had seen the very same man two years earlier and reassured him that he was fine. Warrick had missed the chance to make a difference and it nearly cost a life!! . Based on risk calculation and the best practice of the time, he shouldn’t have been at high risk…..but he was! That meant that he had reassured a patient based on treadmill testing, the best care available at the time that he was fine, only to be part of the team that resuscitated that man when he dropped dead during a running race, this was just not good enough, and he asked himself could this be done differently? This important question started him on a journey which meant he was open to looking more closely at new and emerging technology to help in being more precise about risk of heart attack. It became clear to Warrick the more precise we can be in the information we have in regard to a patients heart health and real risk of heart attack, the better we can look after that person, it seems so obvious when you say it like that, but that opportunity is still only new and not broadly utilised in the medical community.Dr Warrick Bishop Hygiene & Healthy Living Physical Illness & Disease

    EP411: Gut Microbiome with Prof Talley Part 2
    Nov 8 2025
    Welcome to my podcast. I am Doctor Warrick Bishop, and I want to help you to live as well as possible for as long as possible. I’m a practising cardiologist, best-selling author, keynote speaker, and the creator of The Healthy Heart Network. I have over 20 years as a specialist cardiologist and a private practice of over 10,000 patients. Dr. Warrick Bishop, a cardiologist, discusses the critical role of the gut microbiome in overall health with Professor Nicholas Talley, a gastroenterologist. They explore how factors like diet, particularly ultra-processed foods and fiber intake, significantly impact the gut microbiome and can lead to 'leaky gut.' This condition allows inflammatory particles and bacterial factors to enter the bloodstream, contributing to chronic diseases such as heart disease, diabetes, and potentially Parkinson's.

    Welcome to my podcast. I am Doctor Warrick Bishop, and I want to help you to live as well as possible for as long as possible. I’m a practising cardiologist, best-selling author, keynote speaker, and the creator of The Healthy Heart Network. I have over 20 years as a specialist cardiologist and a private practice of over 10,000 patients. In this episode, Doctor Warrick Bishop interviews Professor Nicholas Talley, a distinguished professor of medicine and gastroenterologist. Professor Talley explains the gut microbiome as the collection of trillions of organisms and their genes residing in our gut, which play a crucial role in maintaining health but can also contribute to disease. These organisms are acquired at birth and influenced by factors like diet, exercise, and medication throughout life. The gut microbiome impacts overall health by releasing chemicals that can affect bodily functions, even reaching the brain to influence appetite.
