my friend, personal trainers, 8% bodyfat
thinks getting a Coronary Artery Calcium Score is useful

I tell him to just take AA, Vit K, niacin/apples(reduce LPA) and get the proper nutrients from food and add in some MG, B-vitamins

is a Coronary Artery Calcium Score useful at all?

I guess if it's high,

then you can add more Vit K, lysine/proline. AA
or what can you do it its high?
would a LpA test be better?

Vitamin K2 is preferred.

super K from life extension

but I have a low lpa and yet a high calcium score?
what do I do now?

or maybe my LPA test was bad? are there "bad" lpa tests?

oh, numbers
My Lp(a) was done by LabCorp about 10 times over the past year - never over 4 and usually closer to -0-. My last calcium score was 1401

how can my calcium score by high and yet my LPA score be so low?
