<h1 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-heart-health">Heart Health</h1>



<p>Regular monitoring of heart health parameters, such as blood pressure, cholesterol levels, and heart rate, can help prevent cardiovascular diseases and promote overall well-being. It empowers individuals to make informed lifestyle choices and seek timely medical intervention if necessary, ultimately contributing to a longer and healthier life.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Measure the Success of Treatment</h2>



<p>Medical professionals will typically prescribe medication to treat heart health issues, or to simply improve overall heart health. Monitoring biomarkers relevant to cardiovascular health allows you to verify the success of supplements and medicines in your routine. Testing regularly, at your own pace, will help you see how your biomarkers change as you implement healthy changes.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://drmiltie.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/hearthealth1-1024x687.webp" alt="" class="wp-image-1678"/></figure>



<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://drmiltie.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/hearthealth2-1-1024x683.webp" alt="" class="wp-image-1708"/></figure>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Early Detection</h2>



<p>Detecting signs of serious health issues before they become major has consistently been hailed as a surefire way to curb disease risk.[1] By reading your biomarkers semi-regularly, you can take massive strides in facilitating the early detection of potential cardiovascular issues, enabling timely intervention and treatment before they progress to more serious conditions.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Monitoring Fitness</h2>



<p>Monitoring heart health is especially crucial for fitness enthusiasts and athletes. Regular monitoring of heart health biomarkers can provide valuable insights into the efficiency and effectiveness of cardiovascular performance during exercise. Tracking biomarkers such as heart rate, blood pressure, and cholesterol levels can help optimize training intensity, assess cardiovascular endurance, and identify potential cardiovascular risks associated with intense physical activity. Whether it is through a wearable or at home blood test, it is becoming increasingly easy to monitor several critical fitness-related biomarkers without a visit to the doctor.[2]</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-which-biomarkers-are-closely-related-to-heart-health">Which Biomarkers are closely related to heart health?</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://drmiltie.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/ApoB_heartHealth-3.webp" alt="" class="wp-image-1710"/></figure>



<p><a href="https://drmiltie.com/biomarker/apolipoprotein-b-apob/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">ApoB</a></p>



<p>It has been established for almost 20 years that ApoB is a better predictor of heart disease than LDL cholesterol. Since heart disease is the leading cause of death in the US, addressing ApoB and making cardioprotective lifestyle modifications is critical to living healthier longer.[3, 4]</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://drmiltie.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/2023-12-01_13-23-54-1.png" alt="" class="wp-image-2242"/></figure>



<p><a href="https://drmiltie.com/biomarker/triglycerides/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Triglycerides</a></p>



<p>High triglycerides are directly linked to higher risk of heart disease and stroke. High levels of this biomarkers and its implication can be successfully reversed by exercising regularly, losing weight if overweight, avoiding refined carbohydrates, limiting alcohol and avoiding stress.[5]</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://drmiltie.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/2023-12-01_13-24-38-1.png" alt="" class="wp-image-2243"/></figure>



<p><a href="https://drmiltie.com/biomarker/total-cholesterol/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Cholesterol</a></p>



<p>High amounts of cholesterol inhibit the flow of blood in your body, which can have serious implications. It is often the result of lifestyle, but high cholesterol can also be inherited. [6]</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://drmiltie.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/2023-11-16_13-06-49.png" alt="" class="wp-image-1830"/></figure>



<p><a href="https://drmiltie.com/biomarker/apolipoprotein-a-apoa/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">APoA1</a></p>



<p>Higher levels of ApoA1 are associated with a reduced risk of cardiovascular diseases, including coronary artery disease and heart attacks.[7] Additionally, ApoA1 possesses anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, further contributing to cardiovascular protection.</p>

<p>A FEW DROPS OF BLOOD</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Is a few drops of blood really enough?</h2>



<p>That’s right! A few drops of blood is all we need to test 17 biomarkers. Sounds too good to be true? Far from it…</p>



<p>Our sample collection card, the ADX100<sup>1</sup>, is an alternative collection method, similar to an SST tube. Red blood cells are separated without a centrifuge, enabling the laboratory to perform tests on dry blood.</p>



<p>Are results accurate? Yes! We process samples in a 3rd party CLIA-certified lab. The test results have been cross-validated against standard finger prick and venous draws.</p>



<p>SELF SAMPLE-COLLECTION</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Can I really collect my own sample?</h2>



<p>Each kit contains a sample collection card, three adjustable lancets, band-aids, sterile gauze, an alcohol pad, and instructions.</p>



<p>Drawing your blood sounds scary at first. Especially if it’s your first time doing it. We’ve taken the time to make the instructions as easy to follow as possible.</p>



<p>Not only that, every customer can schedule a live one-on-one session with our certified phlebotomist for FREE (a person trained in collecting blood samples).</p>

<p>PERSONALIZED REPORTS</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Ok, my results are in. What now?</h2>



<p>This is the best part! After processing your sample, we create a complete report for each of your 17 biomarkers.</p>



<p>You can then access your reports from your personal reports dashboard. Each report comes with an easy-to-understand graph and personalized insights you can use to improve each biomarker.</p>



<p>The dashboard lets you connect your favorite wearables to make your reports even more insightful. Improved sleep and activity scores are highly correlated with improved hormonal balance and lower inflammation in our user base.</p>
