Your standard lipid panel isn't built for APOE4 carriers. And your doctor's targets? Probably not aggressive enough.

In this episode, Dr. Grant Fraser, a physician and fellow APOE4 carrier, breaks down how he manages lipids for his APOE4 patients. We cover lipid testing, ApoB targets, statins, other medications, diet, lifestyle and supplements, followed by questions from the Phoenix Community.
