What Is Artery & Heart Health Testing?

Our Artery & Heart Health testing package includes several tests to assess your risk for cardiovascular diseases. We focus on predicting future issues through Omega 3 & 6 concentration tests, Homocysteine levels, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, and Oxidized LDL levels. These tests provide a clear picture of your artery health and offer a roadmap for prevention.

What We Test For:

  • Omega 3 & 6 Levels: These essential fatty acids are critical for preventing inflammation and maintaining artery health.
  • Cardiac Homocysteine: Elevated levels can damage arteries and increase your risk for heart attacks and strokes.
  • C-Reactive Protein (CRP): This high-sensitivity test measures inflammation throughout your body, including your arteries.
  • Oxidized LDL: The most accurate cholesterol test, identifying harmful oxidized lipoproteins that can damage your arteries.

Why Choose Artery & Heart Health Testing?

By getting a full picture of your heart and artery health, you can take proactive steps to lower your risk for cardiovascular diseases. The tests we offer are highly accurate and can help prevent problems before they start.

Nutritional Guidance for Artery Health:

  • Incorporate more anti-inflammatory Omega-3-rich foods.
  • Increase intake of antioxidants like Vitamin E, C, and magnesium.
  • Consider an alkaline diet for optimal cellular energy production.
