In honor of American Heart Month, I am joined by Registered Dietitian, Michelle Rothenstein, to share invaluable insights and practical tips for healthcare providers to support patients with cardiovascular disease. From deciphering cholesterol levels to navigating popular diets like keto and carnivore, Michelle breaks down complex nutritional concepts into actionable advice.

Key Takeaways:

• Understanding the nuances of cholesterol levels and how dietary choices impact heart health.
• Exploring the effects of popular diets like keto and carnivore on lipid levels and overall heart health.
• Emphasizing the importance of sustainable and implementable dietary changes for long-term cardiovascular wellness.
• Highlighting the significance of comprehensive risk assessment, including labs beyond the standard lipid panel, for early detection and prevention of heart disease.
