Help Preventing Heart Attack/Disease

2018-04-23 15:00:53
I am 46 and am concerned about heart disease. I want to know how to prevent and reverse this in my life. My BP is 135/88, HDL 30, LDL 80, Trig. 150. I had at CT Calcium score of 12. I am taking a BP med, 10mg statin, fish oil, garlic, Vitamin D, Asprin, COq10, etc. I have no family history of heart disease. I have been eating a low fat diet for a long time and was surprised to get a Calcium score of 12? For my age that puts me in the 81% range. What can I do different?
