    Lp(a) — Lipoprotein(a)

    A genetically-determined cardiovascular risk factor most people never get tested for.

    Lp(a) — Lipoprotein(a) — Metabolic

    is a cholesterol-carrying particle whose level is ~90% genetic and stable for life. Roughly 20% of the global population has elevated Lp(a) (>50 mg/dL) and faces 2–4× higher cardiovascular risk regardless of diet. Because it's stable, you only need to measure it once. Knowing your Lp(a) shifts how aggressively to manage every other modifiable risk factor.
