"Your cholesterol is a little high. We'll keep an eye on it.""
Sound familiar? That's usually where the conversation ends at most doctor's offices. But what does ""a little high"" even mean? And what are you supposed to DO about it?
Let me break down your lipid panel in plain English ⬆️
Total cholesterol, LDL (the ""bad"" one), HDL (the ""good"" one), VLDL, and triglycerides—they all tell us something different about your metabolic health. And when you understand what each one means, you can actually take action instead of just ""keeping an eye on it.""
At Switchback Chiropractic, we don't just hand you a statin prescription and call it a day. We look at your complete metabolic picture and create personalized strategies to improve your numbers naturally—through nutrition, lifestyle changes, and targeted interventions.
Got your cholesterol results sitting in a drawer somewhere? Pull them out. Look at the numbers. And if you don't know what to do next, send us a DM. Let's make a plan.
