Is there any practical way to measure atherosclerosis?

Angiography only sure way

Prefer to leave it to the fates rather than do that preventively.

Said only you ever.  

I tried all sorts of diets to get my good cholesterol up.  It didn't budge.  It was like 30 or something as long as I've been tested - over a decade.

I changed my training to center around running and endurance events, and it went to 56.

So, there IS something there.

the meridian DPA

cheap and effective

I've tried a ketogenic diet, felt terrible with low energy and looked sickly.

There is no point to it.

My experience as well.  I had nothing in the tank and workouts suffered bad.  Also I was short tempered and would have murdered an old lady for a bowl of pasta if I could have gotten away with it.

Thanks, mphgrove.

They score it 0 to 100. 0 meaning zero calcium and 100 meaning your fucked.
