Jami Dulaney MD Plant Based Wellness Podcast Episode 542: Lp(a) and Cardiac Risk-You Have More Control than you Think

Welcome! and Thank you for listening.  Lp(a) is a genetic marker associated with increased cardiovascular events.  A positive family history is also associated with increase risk.  But how much risk and over what time period.  Families share the same cultures, living environment and often food choices but not always.  Genes don't act alone.  They need the right stimulus or environment to become activated.   There is no one that knows your story better than you.  Yet, one cannot predict their own future with any degree of certainty.  The story always unfolds a little different.  To think a physician can predict ones future is also a bit of a long shot.  Heart disease is the number one killer in America with cancer being number two.  The odds are pretty high that one of those illnesses may cross your door.  The question is which and when.  I believe we are in control of our destiny more than our genes or family history.   How heart disease or other illnesses affect our lives is guided by lifestyle choices and beliefs.  Being healthy is a choice.  Being healthy is a choice.  You just need to BELIEVE.  To understand more take a listen.  Thank you as always.  If you would like help attaining your health goals, check out our website at doctordulaney.com Email me at [email protected] Lp(a) and risk of cardiovascular disease: https://cdn.jamanetwork.com/ama/content_public/journal/cardiology/0/hoi250076f3_1766513579.95844.png?Expires=1773391267&Signature=UtIeIN2lwyYBtOwRfwxf4FeK-dokS3u3bhcUEL9u3cLdpTWBlp9bQyjL0jc-Gnhz8qdagEMNIpkhSHhx2TwJ8HUHlZ6pQtWEKYAiLtGzMz3vNtRXmRtfXHAba~LXFvT3TMM6smZluqippWMYrBMnojWe1mil6BuLUPyHHQLpliLEctMqPzOJkJnWj5lYil~QHmJHE3Rl7VNU5WMPdC79dD66s9DUl-8--pUiuREuAcAZcj74gOzkPHQekYYynHBXuNVjhzGNe34Z4z21gGE4siE46V~I~ycerWXGG1eVom3xTtxneIlxpDQ2J6HdY3t6F2J9jW3cc4241WRw52NyJA__&Key-Pair-Id=APKAIE5G5CRDK6RD3PGA Plant based wellness cookbook: amzn.to/4onHVe4 Water distillers: mypurewater.come?sld-jdulaney.  discount code: cleanwaterforsophie Believe: Dr Kevin Elko -sports psychologist
