Australia Cardio Vascular Disease Risk Calculator

Jumping in on this older post because tools like this are pretty handy, and I’m curious how others use them. Has anyone compared their results over time to see if lifestyle changes made a difference? Always interesting to hear real experiences, not just the numbers the calculator gives.
 
I’ve used that tool before and found it handy for getting a quick snapshot of my heart health. I just popped in my details and it gave me clear risk info fast.
 
Very scary ! High cholesterol can be Genetic high cholesterol.
Yes. So must check this at least once because usually the doctor dont order this test during the usual blood test for lipid panel. You want to know whether you are prone to genetic high cholesterol.

Genetic meaning no cure ?
 
There are a lot of TikTok videos explaining Lipoprotein (a), or Lp(a).
Just search and these cardiologists probably explain much better than a lay person like me.
 
What is my take on all this?

Before a person is born everyone's last date on Earth is confirmed first.

I have come across many old people with big rounded stomachs.
I am sure they suffer from many medical problems BUT they are still walking around - aged 92 and above.
Some poor souls suffer from medical conditions much younger without any fault of theirs.

I am not saying you ignore your intake of food, doctor medical appointments, etc etc

If your medical shows high cholestrol, diabetes etc control it. See a doctor. Otherwise you are being an idiot.

Some doctors will prescribe you many different kinds of vitamins. Be very careful. Excess vitamins can cause you numerous medical problems and affect you liver, heart, kidneys, etc.
If you lack some vitamin or magnesium for eg. check it first. If it low take the vitamin etc. Do not keep on taking pills forever. Too many vitamin pills will destroy your quality of life.

But the end date is set and cannot be changed unless some Supreme natural force decides and changes your fate.
