If you or a loved one has prediabetes, the SpikeLess T2D Prevention Program might help you reverse insulin resistance and prevent Type 2 Diabetes. Let’s stop diabetes in its tracks and take steps to transform metabolic health. 🥕

In this podcast, I share personal and client stories reversing prediabetes by combining the National Diabetes Prevention Program with continuous glucose monitors (CGMs). Tamara Ruggles, podcast host and pharmacist, and I discuss tools to lower A1c.

Why Waist-to-Height Ratio (WHtR)? If your waist is 50% or more of your height, you have visceral fat around your middle and organs. A tape measure is a simple tool to get a baseline and check monthly as you follow new eating and exercise habits on a weight transformation journey.

@Drlipid Then I’ll do the bragging for you — our Family Heart Foundation Tri-State Lp(a) Support Group was blown away by your animated PowerPoint delving into lipoproteins, especially Lp(a) and its treatment. Gotta love those Kringles! We’re looking forward to hosting you again! ❤️🧬

[Susan L. Ward, NBC-HWC @SusanLWard]

@nmorlock42 It is being reviewed and hopefully Dr. Dayspring will consent to let us share the presentation. ❤️🧬

Tonight it was my pleasure to host this educational support group meeting on Lp(a) and treatment with @Drlipid himself. @TheFHFoundation

Almost 20% of young people ages 6-19 have a BMI above the 95th percentile. Behavioral interventions with at least 26 contact hours that include supervised physical activity sessions for up to 1 year result in weight loss in children and adolescents.

Here are graphics packed full of crucial information for those wondering "what is a lipid" and how do hydrophobic (nonpolar) lipids travel in aqueous plasma. @nationallipid @society_eas

I am thrilled to announce my designation as. Lifestyle Coach for the CDC National Diabetes Prevention Program. Pre-diabetes is reversible — why wait to lower glucose levels and risk related metabolic dysfunction? If you know someone who could use my help, please reach out! ❤️

[Susan L. Ward, NBC-HWC @SusanLWard]

Please consider making a tax-deductible donation in the race to save more hearts. The Family Heart Foundation is doing great work in research, outreach and training on genetic causes of ASCVD risk: FH and Lp(a). ❤️🧬

@Drlipid As an Ambassador for @TheFHFoundation, I am sharing this quote in the Lp(a) support group. Everyday I see posts from anxious people whose doctors discourage them by refusing to order diagnostic tests and criticizing them for searching the internet to educate themselves.

[Thomas Dayspring @Drlipid]

In all circumstances regarding diagnostics the patient has to be his own advocate and make demands of reluctant clinicians.

[Susan L. Ward, NBC-HWC @SusanLWard]

Today is Lp(a) Awareness Day! 20% global population have this genetic disorder and few know it! Get tested! #KnowLPA

[Family Heart Foundation @FamilyHeartFdn]

A3: High Lp(a) is a triple threat. It contributes to artery blocking, clogging, and inflammation – all potentially leading to cardiovascular events. #KnowLpa

[Family Heart Foundation @FamilyHeartFdn]

This holiday season as you reconnect with family, don’t forget to tell them about high Lp(a). It’s genetic so if you have it, your family members should akso be checked – it’s a crucial way to save more families and more hearts. #KnowLpa
