Lipoprotein(a), the Heart’s Quiet Killer

A Diet & Lifestyle Guide

It’s estimated that one out of every five people worldwide has elevated levels of a type of cholesterol called lipoprotein(a). A high lipoprotein(a) level increases the risk for cardiovascular disease, including blocked arteries, blood clots, and stroke.

Cardiologist Joel Kahn sounds the alarm and brings awareness of this silent risk factor to light, providing vital information for those in need so they can safeguard their health. He also shares research that shows plant-based diets in general provide the best defense against cardiovascular disease.

Established plant-based cookbook author Beverly Lynn Bennett provides dozens of oil-free recipes that feature foods rich in the nutrients found to be the most protective for heart health.
