Looks like a worthy goal to get the word out about the 15-20% of the population that the article mentions might benefit.

Once high lp(a) is identified, doctors try to mitigate its effects by controlling other risk factors. They aggressively lower patients’ LDL cholesterol, optimize their blood pressure and blood sugar, and strongly encourage healthy diet and exercise habits.


Wasn't Bob Harper already doing these things? Dead Ornish helped him post heart attack.

His days no longer revolve around intense and grueling workouts, he said. Instead he believes the key to being healthy is managing stress, getting proper sleep, eating a balanced diet and enjoying life because it could end at any moment, an approach he has outlined in his new book, “The Super Carb Diet.”


His book is: The Super Carb Diet: Shed Pounds, Build Strength, Eat Real Food "Carbs don't make you fat" the book begins. He mentions later that he was on the paleo diet at one time. But he also says he stands by previous diet advice, which was what exactly? Was he eating one way and writing books advising another?

He's better get some friends to give him friendly reviews, because so far on Amazon, they're not too good.
