In this special bonus episode, Elizabeth sits down with Dr. Raul Aggarwal to explore the advanced cardiovascular tests and treatment options that go far beyond your standard cholesterol panel.
From ApoB and Lp(a) to particle size, homocysteine, CRP, and statins vs. alternatives, this conversation is packed with insights on how to identify hidden risks—and what to do about them.
You’ll learn:
Why “normal” cholesterol numbers don’t tell the full story
How Dr. Aggarwal uses advanced testing in his practice
What to know about statins, PCSK9 inhibitors, and new therapies
Why inflammation, oxidation, and particle size matter more than you think
The role of supplements like nattokinase, CoQ10, and NMN
If you’ve ever felt confused by your lipid panel—or want to take a more personalized approach to prevention—this one’s for you.
