About this listen

 Welcome to my podcast. I am Doctor Warrick Bishop, and I want to help you to live as well as possible for as long as possible. I’m a practising cardiologist, best-selling author, keynote speaker, and the creator of The Healthy Heart Network. I have over 20 years as a specialist cardiologist and a private practice of over 10,000 patients. In this podcast, Dr. Warrick Bishop, a cardiologist and CEO of the Healthy Heart Network, discusses the significance of genetics in cholesterol-related health issues. He explains the difference between monogenic and polygenic influences on lipid profiles, with monogenic abnormalities being linked to single genetic mutations that significantly impact cholesterol levels, such as familial hypercholesterolemia. In contrast, polygenic issues involve multiple small genetic variations that collectively affect cholesterol without causing as severe elevations.
