In this episode, Dr. Andrew Freeman joins the podcast to discuss the relationship between cholesterol and heart disease risk. He emphasizes the importance of not making assumptions based on diets, as cholesterol levels are influenced by genetics, environment, and individual eating habits. Dr. Freeman shares examples of patients with varying cholesterol levels, debunking the notion that a plant-based diet guarantees low cholesterol. He also highlights the significance of lipoprotein A in assessing risk. Tune in to learn more about cholesterol and how it relates to heart health.
