On Monday January 9, 2023, Dr. David Duizer reviewed conventional, functional and alternative biological markers used in the assessment of cardiovascular health. From a holistic perspective each lab will be reviewed for clinical relevance.

As the number one cause of mortality in Canada, atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) has the attention of health care providers working in disease prevention. With little-to-no subjective warning signs the approach to lab evaluation must be holistic, comprehensive, and evidence-based.
