Dr. Shriram Nene Highlights Limitations of Relying Solely on Normal Health Test Results
Dr. Shriram Nene emphasizes that normal test results like BMI, fasting glucose, or total cholesterol do not fully capture cardiovascular risk. He advises considering multiple health markers together, including waist measurement, family history, and advanced lipid profiles, to better assess heart health. Experts agree that standard tests may miss early or functional changes, and individual baselines vary. The focus is on understanding broader risk factors rather than relying on single test results for a complete health assessment.
