Am I going to have a heart attack or stroke?

Do you know your risk? Are the right labs being monitored? Is your doctor or health care provider still talking about good vs bad cholesterol? Can you modify your risk?

Cardiovascular disease is the number one cause of death in the world. When we talk about cardiovascular or cardiometabolic disease, we are talking about heart attacks, stroke, high blood pressure, and diabetes. Fortunately, this is a disease with modifiable risk and simple changes to diet and lifestyle can reduce your risk of disease and death.

If you are interested in learning more about cholesterol, cardiovascular disease and your risk, here are links to two videos posted on our YouTube channel.

We have created a simple document to help you assess your risk, it can access this here:

Ready for a change and looking for a good book about the Mediterranean Diet, including recipes? My friend and colleague, Steven Masley, MD has written a great book! The Meditteranean Method.

Do you want or need help? We have an active waiting list for our practice.

In health,

Dr Jill
