High Cholesterol

Optimize your lipids with precision, not guesswork.

Lipid optimization through advanced testing and personalized nutrition protocols. We go beyond total cholesterol to address particle size, inflammation, and cardiovascular risk.

What Dietitian Care Covers

How we approach high cholesterol.

Precision means starting with data, not assumptions. Here is what your care includes, from the signs we work with to the plan you leave with.

Common Signs

Elevated LDL cholesterol on standard testing

High triglycerides

Low HDL cholesterol

Family history of heart disease

Physician recommendation to improve lipids before medication

Our Approach

Advanced Lipid Testing

Standard cholesterol panels miss critical details. We test LDL particle number, particle size, Lp(a), and ApoB for a complete cardiovascular risk picture.

Dietary Fat Strategy

Not all fat is the problem. We build your fat intake around your specific lipid subfractions. Sometimes increasing certain fats actually improves your numbers.

Inflammation Connection

Oxidized LDL and inflammation are the real cardiovascular risks. We target both through nutrition and supplementation.

Testing

Panel 01

Advanced Lipid Panel

LDL-P, LDL particle size, ApoB, Lp(a), triglycerides, HDL. Far more informative than standard cholesterol.

Panel 02

Inflammatory Markers

hs-CRP, homocysteine, and oxidized LDL: the markers that actually predict cardiovascular events.

What Your Plan Includes
  • Personalized fat and fiber targets based on your lipid subfractions
  • Omega-3 and plant sterol supplementation guided by your specific markers
  • Meal plans that target triglycerides, raise HDL, and reduce small dense LDL
  • Weekly sessions to reinforce dietary changes and track progress
How Care Starts

From coverage check to first visit.

Three steps, no guesswork. Your benefits are verified before you ever book a visit.

01

Check your coverage

Share your insurance details and we verify your benefits before you book anything. Most plans cover dietitian visits under preventive benefits, with a typical $0 copay for eligible members.

02

Match with a registered dietitian

We pair you with a licensed RD whose clinical focus fits high cholesterol care, so your visits start with relevant experience, not a generic template.

03

Start your protocol

Your first telehealth visit usually happens within a few business days of verification. You leave with a plan built around your labs, your history, and your life.

Expected Outcomes

What to expect.

Improved LDL particle profile (fewer small dense particles)

Lower triglycerides and higher HDL

Reduced cardiovascular inflammation markers

Potential to avoid or reduce statin medication

FAQ

Common questions about high cholesterol.

Can diet really lower cholesterol?

Peer-reviewed clinical trials and AHA scientific statements report meaningful LDL-C and triglyceride improvements with structured dietary intervention, often in the ranges shown in the benchmarks above. Knowing which dietary changes matter for your specific lipid profile typically requires advanced testing beyond standard panels. Individual results vary.

Do you work with patients already on statins?

Yes. Medical nutrition therapy works alongside statin therapy. Some patients are able to reduce their dose over time, but only in coordination with the prescribing physician, never independently.

Full Precision Health is a registered dietitian practice supervised by our medical director, with prescribing physicians available for medication coordination where clinically indicated. We provide medical nutrition therapy for the conditions on this page, working alongside your primary care or specialist physician for ongoing diagnosis and disease management.
