At the suggestion of Dr. Brie, I recently took the Boston Heart Test, and I'm really glad I did. We had previously seen my cholesterol moving up quite significantly, which was concerning, my mother also had high cholesterol. We decided to do a deeper dive to better understand these numbers. So, I took the Boston Heart test.
While some of the medical terminology was a bit over my head, Dr. Brie thoroughly reviewed everything with me. I learned that certain aspects of my cholesterol are inherited and fixed, meaning no matter how healthy I eat—if I lived on just carrots and water—those particular numbers wouldn’t change. However, other numbers could be improved with better diet and exercise. Dr. Bree also recommended that I start on a statin, because of the numbers that lifestyle changes alone wouldn't improve.
During our 30-45 minute discussion, Dr. Brie also went over additional information included in the test. There are these good sweepers (again, the medical language is rather complex) - which I have a healthy number of. Yeah sweepers! I thought before our meeting that it would be a rather grim meeting, filled with difficult news. But, it was a wide view and there are ways in which my body is functioning well - some not so well.
But we have medications and I have had no side effects from the meds. She also suggested some supplements, targeted at the heart issue. We also included a genetic test that would reveal if I had a predisposition to Alzheimer’s. She went into these genes, and what means what. Dr Brie provided a follow up summary of the meeting in the portal.
I’m so grateful for Dr. Brie's thorough, informative, super deep-dive approach. She always takes the time to explain everything in detail, and I appreciate her so much!

HERE ARE SOME COMMON QUESTIONS WE GET REGARDING OUR BRAIN HEALTH PROGRAM:
ApoE genetic variants influence your heart health and brain health! For example, ApoE2 is protective against Alzhiemer's but puts people at risk for high cholesterol. ApoE4 genetic variants actually put you at increased risk for Alzheimer's and heart disease. Additionally, some MTHFR genetic variants put you at risk for blood clot, miscarriage, stroke and heart attack. We want you to know the most about YOU so we offer these genetic tests to understand your personal health influences.
Thank you for your interest in Direct Osteopathic Primary Care.
