Jami Dulaney MD Plant Based Wellness Podcast Episode 490: Lp(a) and a Good Nights Sleep

Welcome! and Thank you for listening. 

What does it mean if you are in that 25% of the population than has an abnormally high Lp(a)? Is it worth loosing sleep over?  I can assure you that will not fix the problem.  So many studies correlate numbers with potential outcomes.  It seems logical, but it often is not the case.  Just ask a 90 year old Italian with a high Lp(a).  

Even worry is treated with a medication, and there is no known biochemical pathway that correlates with worry.  The treatment effect, like most psychiatric medications, is just to dull awareness.  What a great quality of life that must be.  Most people want to avoid dementia but think nothing of medications that dull your cognitive abilities.  Hence, don't operate heavy machinery which should include a car.  If they said car, less people might opt out of taking said mind dulling medications. 

It all gets back to the root cause of not feeling well.  Do you have a disease or a side effect of medication.  Perhaps you are suffering from a lack of exercise induced mitochondrial dysfunction.  I hope you enjoy the rant and thank you for listening.
