Ok. So you googled heart disease or some other phrase for whatever reason for yourself or for someone you care about and the Track Your Plaque (TYP) program website came up in the search.
If you’re like I was (in late August of 2007) you’ve already spent time on some other sites dealing with coronary artery disease (CAD) and you weren’t that impressed. Sure, there are some sites that talk about the fact that you should improve your diet, the list of supplements you take, and/or your exercise program.
But then you came across the TYP website or maybe Dr. Davis’ HeartScanBlog and they just “feel” different to you. There are some audacious claims being made at both sites about dramatic positive changes in actual risk and risk factors related to CAD. But this Dr. Davis character sometimes goes on rants about how bad things are vis-a-vis CAD and you’re thinking to yourself “it can’t be this bad can it?” And some of his suggestions sure seem extreme.
“Give up wheat? Is he kidding?” Well, no, he’s not.
If you’ve gone through something like these stages and still, ready or not, you’re thinking now that you’d like to move forward as quickly as possible to follow the TYP program, I’ve written this post for you.
Below the fold, I sketch the steps related to lipoprotein blood testing that will jumpstart your Track Your Plaque program.
