The New England Journal of Medicine states:
"Eat Right and take a Multivitamin 1"
Did you know that the presence of elevated serum homocysteine has recently been shown to be another independent risk factor for Coronary Heart Disease2 (CHD)? This risk is equal in magnitude to the level of risk associated with either cigarette smoking or elevated serum cholesterol. Routine CHD risk assessment should now include the evaluation of serum homocysteine.
Have your physician contact the King James Medical Laboratory or call (800) 437-1404 to arrange for this test.

Elevated serum homocysteine has been shown to be correctable by increasing the folate and B12 consumed3,4. This has resulted in the establishment of new dietary guidelines as recommended by the National Academy of Science which call for 400 to 600 mg of Folate above that consumed in the diet5.
You can be sure to get all of your optimal health assessment needs that you and your physician require from the King James Medical Laboratory.
