Wierd Lp(a) report

[ofonorow]

Lipoprotein(a) 104 < 300 Mg/L

New method effective 01/04/2016
There is no additional risk due to Lp(a)

Instead of mg/dl - they increased the number by a factor of 10.

This appears to be a little more accurate way of doing things.
Because if it was reported mg/dL it would be just 10 mg/dL reported.
With the 104 mg/L when converted to mg/dL is 10.4 so it gives a decimal to deal with.

Let say someone has a 299 mg/L that would be 29.9 mg/dL.
With the old mg/dL it would report the 29 which looks in range.
But the 29.9 is kicking the 30 mark real hard.

Now in the real world a 104 mg/L is .4 over what is considered the safe range.
Which is < 10 mg/dl or 100 mg/L.
This moves it into the yellow range and out of the Green zone.
So it is my believe that he should start working on getting it LOWER!

Dvatt gave some suggetions of how to lower lp(a). Johnwen, could you pls opine as to a protocol to lower lp(a). Thanks.

Hey Johnwen,
I am the fellow with the report that had the <300mg/L.

First I must say thank-you to you,eDOC and Owen. You guys are the ones that I can RELY upon and both of you have been a LIFE SAVER!

My protocol:
Vit C 9-10gr ascorbic acid
Lysine 4.5gr - 6gr
Proline 1.5gr 2gr (1 month to 1.5 month)
Vit E 400iu-800iu
Vit k2 120mcg -240mcg
Vit D 2000iu -3000iu
CoQ10 - 150-200mg
Magnesium 750-1000mg
Vit B Complex

I've been following the PT for over 2 months.
I know it takes months of following this protocol of PT to get lp(a) down to lower that 10 but in 6 months I hope I slowly take it down to ZER0.

Finally getting some time!

A little late but this should give some ideas what to look for!
