Cholesterol testing that your doctor does not do …. but should!

Extensive Cholesterol Testing in Australia

YouTube video

  • Find out why the standard cholesterol testing tells you very little about your risk for a heart attack
  • High cholesterol is not the cause of heart disease and many people with normal cholesterol levels have heart attacks
  • Small LDL particle size combined with inflammation is a risk factor for heart disease, this is a bio-marker very rarely tested by your GP
  • High sensitive C reactive protein is a test that can warn you of underlying chronic inflammation, even if you feel ok
  • Statin medications do not reduce the risk of heart disease for most people, and can have serious side effects
  • A diet high in fat does not cause heart disease
  • A diet high in processed foods that contain refined carbohydrates and vegetable oils like soy bean oil and canola oil promote inflammation and cardiovascular disease
