Default CAC -- Coronary artery calcium score

I just had one of those coronary artery scans done and my score was 0! Happy dance!

For those thinking their hearts will asplode from low carbing, I've been low carbing for decades by now.

Well, after doing a bit of research, it isn't all that unusual for a woman age 60 to have a score of zero.
