Episode description
Standard cholesterol and lipid testing does NOT give you any real information about your health. And it definitely doesn’t give you enough data to determine whether you should go on lifelong cholesterol medications.
In fact, roughly 50% of people who die from heart attacks either have normal cholesterol levels, or are taking anti-cholesterol medications!
In this episode I discuss what an extensive lipid panel needs to include, what the results might mean, and what you should do about it!
