Does heart disease run in your family? This and other reasons can make it smart to stay vigilant against this condition.
Good news: I’m now offering a new blood test called the SMARTVascular test. It tests markers indicating the health of the blood vessel walls.
The results predict the percentage chance that patients will have a cardiovascular event (such as a heart attack) in 5 years.
More good news? These markers can be reversed with diet and lifestyle changes.
I provide counseling to patients to change diet, lifestyle and provide supplements for 4 to 6 months, at which point we can retest to see if numbers have improved.
This is a simple blood test done at LifeLabs or your local bloodwork lab. This test is not available through MSP- it is a private pay test and only done by naturopathic doctors and/or heart specialists.
