I don't what know the doctor here will say but several studies have shown/suggested that persons with Gilbert's disease/syndrome are at lower risk for CAD and other cardiovascular events.

I have never heard of this association.  It would certainly be difficult to prove.  More importantly, the risk of heart disease is dependent on things such as one's age, sex (male), history of smoking, diabetes, high cholesterol or HTN. Working on the latter four will certainly decrease one's risk of heart disease to the greatest degree.
