Cholesterol Conundrum with Dr Ross Walker Jan 31, 2018

Show notes

One Australian dies every 12 minutes of a heart attack or some cardiovascular disorder. In the war on heart disease orthodox cardiologists often still view LDL and cholesterol as the crucial enemy and the end result is often a polypharmacy prescription to bring them to heel. This is where Dr Ross Walker differs from his more conventional cardiology colleagues. He takes a more wholistic view and treats based on the best available evidence for cardiovascular disease. In today's podcast, Dr Ross Walker reveals how to decisively treat heart disease using diet and lifestyle measures, with judicious use of nutraceuticals and warranted medications for demonstrated disease progression.
