I inherited Lp(a) from my mom, a genetic independent risk factor for heart disease. My cholesterol numbers were great with high HDL and low LDL, yet at age 60 my heart’s 4 main arteries were found to all be clogged greater than 90%. How about a full quadruple bypass to save my life. Happy birthday to me!
Knowing your Lp(a) levels can help you ACT and reduce your risk of heart disease for you or someone you love. I am walking for more heart health awareness, advocating that we learn our genetics and be your own best advocate for you health - not just heart but total health!
This year, the American Heart Association is celebrating 100 years of heart health awareness and life-saving research. Your donation will help fund groundbreaking research that literally keeps hearts beating and helps people have longer, healthier lives. Like me...
