Episode description as stored
Welcome to this week’s Midlife Minute episode!
Statistically, one in three women will die of heart disease. So, today, we’re answering some of the many questions I received about lipids and heart health. Although I’ve done other lipid-focused Midlife Minutes before, this episode is yet another dedicated to Dr. Tom Dayspring, as I’ve received such a vast number of questions on this particular topic.
IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN:
Why understanding your ApoB and Lp(a) is an essential part of assessing your cardiovascular risk
Why treatments for lipid abnormalities should be individualized to fit each specific abnormality
Essential lifestyle measures for supporting overall cardiovascular health
How CAC scoring, CT coronary angiography, and Clearly AI-assisted imaging differ, what each test measures, and their limitations
How cardiovascular disease can sometimes present differently in women
Why are premature atrial contractions and premature ventricular contractions often benign when the heart is structurally normal?
How the roles of statins, ezetimibe, PCSK9 inhibitors, GLP-1 medications, and emerging RNA therapies differ, and why they should not be considered interchangeable
How declining estrogen impacts cardiovascular health
