Studies are showing that by measuring traditional cholesterol panels, we are not getting enough information to actually assess the underlying risks associated with strokes and cardiovascular events. Adverse events are occurring in spite of the use of cholesterol lowering medications sometimes known as "statins". This is because we are focusing on a number rather than the whole risk picture.
At Vitruvia, we take cholesterol seriously. Special in depth cholesterol panels that evaluate inflammatory markers, particle size, as well as genetic markers are important if you have any risk factors. These measurements become very important in determining how aggressive your treatment plan needs to be. We provide a customized plan focusing on dietary changes and utilizing specific natural supplements. Cholesterol medication is not our first line therapy and is recommended only if we aren't getting desired results or if overwhelming risk factors are present
To find out your underlying risks call Vitruvia today.
