Today we are going to be looking at cholesterol numbers and explore if the traditional profile even matters. If the traditional lipid profile doesn’t matter, then what additional markers can we consider to assess our risk of cardiovascular disease.

Do you really need to be on a statin? What other medications should you consider.
