Ready to shatter the illusion that you know everything about heart disease? Look no further; we're about to flip the script on lipid profiles and their vital role in maintaining heart health. Join us, Dr. Michael Koren and Dr. Al Lopez, DO as we dive deep into the heart matters of some of the most famous personalities who met early demises due to cardiovascular diseases. Remember Jerry Garcia, Arthur Ashe, Hank Williams, and Jackie Robinson? They could've benefitted from advanced lipid profile testing. We also uncover the underestimated significance of knowing your family history.

Our exploration doesn't stop there. We tear apart conventional wisdom on cholesterol and lipid profiles. You've always heard that an LDL level of 150 or below is atherogenic, right? Well, new evidence could suggest it be 100 or 125. Triglycerides, non-HDL cholesterol, functional versus dysfunctional HDL - we're covering it all. Tune in to our hard-hitting discussions as we dissect these complex concepts that have profound implications in coronary catheterizations and preventive medicine. If heart health matters to you, you can't afford to miss this episode!
