It can be incredibly challenging to know what to do with chest discomfort and elevated cholesterol. Many people are obtaining their information from less than reliable sources like social media and the Internet, and it can be incredibly confusing to many about how to go about dealing with these concerns in an already fast-paced and incredibly stressful world.
In this public forum, we will aim to discuss strategies tailored to reducing your cholesterol naturally as well as with pharmacology, and use a multi-disciplinary approach to tackling the problem. We will also talk about chest discomfort and how to go about seeking help.
