Dr. Myatt’s Cardiovascular Risk Checklist
From Dr. Myatt’s Medical White Paper on Cardiovascular Risk Factors:
“…As many as fifty percent of all first heart attacks are last heart attacks. Half of all people who have a heart attack die from “sudden cardiac death.” People with NO conventional risk factors are more likely to die “sudden death” from a first heart attack. Sudden cardiac death is the first and only sign of heart disease in this group…”
Dr. Myatt has been able to locate and provide a comprehensive Cardiac Risk Profile that includes both currently accepted Cardiac Risk Factors and the New Emerging Cardiac Risk Factors that she discusses in her Medical White Paper.
These “emerging Risk Factors” are the ones that your conventional doctor – even your conventional cardiologist – will not test for.
Sorry: this test is currently unavailable – check back soon!
CBC – Complete Blood Count
Used to evaluate status and function of many systems the Complete Blood Counts with differential and platelets includes:
- Hematocrit,
- hemoglobin,
- mean corpuscular volume (MCV),
- mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH),
- mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC),
- red cell distribution width (RDW),
- percentage and absolute differential counts,
- platelet count;
- red cell count,
- white blood cell count (WBC).

Opti-Plus Profile (Chemistry Screen, CBC and Add-Ons)
This is the single best general test for annual health monitoring.
This profile includes:
I.) Chemistry screen:
- Fasting Glucose (blood sugar)
- Uric acid
- BUN (blood urea nitrogen): Measures liver and kidney function
- Creatinine: A test used to measure kidney function
- BUN/Creatinine Ratio: For diagnosis of impaired renal function
- Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) – kidney function
- Sodium
- Potassium
- Chloride
- Calcium
- Carbon Dioxide
- Phosphorus
- Magnesium
- Total Protein
- Albumin
- Globulin
- Albumin/Globulin Ratio
- Bilirubin: Evaluates kidney and liver function
- Alkaline Phosphatase: Evaluation of liver and bone diseases
- LDH (lactic dehydrogenase)
- AST (SGOT): Evaluates liver function
- ALT (SGPT): Evaluates liver function
- GGT: Liver function
- Iron (serum)
II.) Lipid Profile: Evaluates the risk for developing atherosclerosis (arterial plaque) and coronary heart disease.
- Total Cholesterol
- Triglycerides
- HDL Cholesterol
- LDL Cholesterol
- VLDL
- Total Cholesterol/HDL Ratio
III.) Complete Blood Count with Differential and Platelet Count:
- Red blood cell count
- Hemoglobin
- Hematocrit
- Red blood cell indices
- Mean corpuscular hemoglobin
- Mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration
- Red blood cell distribution
- White blood cell count
- Differential count
- Platelet coun
IV.) Thyroid Function
- TSH (Thyroid stimulating hormones)
- T4 (total)
- T3 Uptake
V.) Urinalysis – Diabetes, various forms of kidney disease, and chronic urinary tract infections can show in the urine even if they are not causing symptoms. This test includes urine chemistry and a microscopic evaluation of urine to screen for occult (“hidden” disease).
VI.) Additional Health Markers – Cardiac, Diabetes and Metabolic Syndrome.
- Hemoglobin A1C — blood sugar control over a 2-3 month period. The “Gold standard” screen for diabetes, pre-diabetes and metabolic syndrome.
- CRP, High Sensitivity (sign of subtle inflammation). A factor in many diseases including heart disease.
- Ferritin (storage iron). Higher levels are strongly associated with increased heart disease risk. Very low levels indicate iron deficiency anemia.
- TIBC / % Saturation (Total Iron Binding Capacity) – Helps differentiate between various types of anemia and to diagnose iron overload (a heart-risk factor).
Information and ordering here: Opti-Plus Profile
Post-Menopausal Female Hormone Profile
Includes estradiol, total estrogens, pregnenelone, progesterone, testosterone (total) and DHEA-S.
Full information and ordering here: Post-Menopausal Female Hormone Profile
Serum Ferritin
High iron, as measured by the storage iron, ferritin, is associated with an increased
risk of cardiovascular disease. Excess iron in the body generates free radicals.

Thyroid – Dr. Myatt’s Screening Tests
TSH (thyroid stimulating hormone) is the single test used in conventional medicine to
screen for thyroid dysfunction, and this single number can give an incorrect diagnosis
a large percentage of the time.
Dr. Myatt uses TSH — a hormone actually produced by the pituitary — along with the
two active hormones, T3 and T4, to evaluate for thyroid hormone adequacy.
In addition, reverse T3 (rT3) an, “inert” hormone that can block thyroid hormone receptors,
is also part of what Dr. Myatt considers to be the optimal screening profile for normal thyroid
function.
This test includes TSH, free T3, free T4 and reverse T3.
