Cholesterol: Friend or Foe?

In this episode, Dr. Mary Louder teaches about cholesterol: about its function in the body, both helpful and not, and how it plays a role in cardiovascular disease if it gets out of balance. She also discusses the many other factors that can play into cardiovascular disease, and how a holisitic, lifestyle medicine focus can help reduce this major cause of mortality in our society. Also, Dr. Louder introduces her new community, which you can join for free here to learn more about various topics in health and wellness. Joining is free, though there are also paid levels that include courses and/or health coaching. Last but not least, if this episode has made you curious about your own cholesterol and how it might impact your health, you can learn more about and sign up for the Boston Health/Cairn Wellness Cholesterol Panel here.
