Cholesterol & Lipids

Clear, practical planning to reduce cardiovascular risk without panic.

“High cholesterol” is not a personality flaw. It’s a data point. We help you interpret your lipid results in context and create a step-by-step plan that fits your life.

This page is educational and informational. Your clinician will individualize recommendations based on your history, labs, and goals.

Why lipids matter

Cholesterol and lipoproteins are part of how the body transports fats. Risk depends on the full pattern, not just one number. We help you connect labs to actionable next steps.

Cardiovascular risk planning Heart attack and stroke risk reduction strategies.
Metabolic overlap Triglycerides, insulin resistance patterns, and fatty liver concerns can cluster together.
Family-history screening Some patterns suggest inherited lipid disorders that deserve earlier attention.
Want to understand your specific pattern?

Lipids are influenced by more than diet alone. We look at patterns and prioritize the most impactful changes first.

Nutrition strategy

Protein-forward meals, fiber, and sustainable changes tailored to your preferences.

Movement

Walking and strength training to support metabolic health and lipid patterns.

Weight & insulin resistance overlap

When triglycerides, A1c, and fatty liver patterns cluster together.

Sleep + stress physiology

Stress and poor sleep can shift appetite, inflammation tone, and metabolic markers.

Secondary causes

Thyroid patterns, medications, genetics, and other contributors.

Medication discussion

When appropriate, we review options, side effects, cost, and monitoring.
