@seanluomdphd@Restuta@nicknorwitz He’s not talking about a scan for CAC but rather a CTA with AI calculation of vulnerable plaque, which is not revealed by the CAC scan.
Neither of these men are married or have kids.
Both are simply obsessed with their own personal perfection and optimization.
There is nothing impressive about a single man with no kids sleeping well and being fit.
Show me a man with young children, a full time job, disrupted sleep, who works out regularly, eats healthy, trains Jui Jitsu, with a muscular body…
THIS is impressive. THIS requires extreme discipline.
@soonergise@TuckerGoodrich@DIY_Tardis Seriously? You corrected neither me nor Tsimikas, whose opinion on Lp(a) I weight just a bit more than your own. Have a nice day!
You know there's a vast difference between purified EPA and over the counter vegetable oils, right? But to answer your question: Purified EPA likely contributes to anti-thrombotic shifts (pro-fibrinolytic) and reduces the formation of oxidized phospholipids, which would counteract Lp(a)'s atherogenicity. Care to answer my question?
@soonergise@nicknorwitz A striking lack of nuance. Did you read his essay? He admits they work, especially in the metabolically unwell. Can you engage with the content? Do they work as well, based on the 4S trial data, in metabolically healthy people?
I stand with American livestock farmers. I sponsored a bill to bring back Country of Origin Labels on beef, and I have 50 cosponsors in the House and Senate on my PRIME Act which would make it easier for families to buy healthy meat from local farms. These are my “Wangus” cattle!

Restore the right of the people to buy directly from the farmer w/o first getting permission from the federal government. This was the case until 1967, when rogue bureaucrats misconstrued the custom exception laws to limit that traditional right. Cuts prices & helps OUR ranchers.
