How To Health Podcast With Laurie Marbas, Md, Mba

In my latest podcast episode, I had the honor of speaking with Dr. Kim Williams about crucial topics like cholesterol and hypertension. I was particularly interested in his treatment strategies for patients who continue to have high cholesterol levels despite adopting healthier lifestyles. Dr. Williams introduced the 'prevent calculator', a new tool that considers kidney disease in its assessment. He underscored the importance of addressing key risk factors, such as smoking and diabetes. Additionally, he explained how different types of LDL cholesterol affect artery health and discussed the connection between smoking and oxidized LDL. Notably, Dr. Williams mentioned that the prevent calculator has been updated to focus on social determinants of health, moving away from including race as a factor.
