Thanks David. I agree. My cardiologist thinks the same about it. As you may have notice my story is not about advocating statin therapy. I never used it and I don't think I would ever need it as my lipid profile is optimal. Some people might need it. However there is significant evidence on the impact of insulin resistance on cardiovascular health so I try to raise awareness for its early detection. LPIR looks a good biomarker and it the insulin resistance could be address via healthy lifestyle choices like diet, exercise, and restorative sleep.
