Why ApoB and Lipoprotein(a) Can Change the Entire Trajectory of Your Life

For decades, we were taught a simple story:

“If your LDL cholesterol is normal, your heart is safe.”

That story is wrong.

Every week, I see patients who:

• Exercise regularly

• Eat reasonably well

• Have “acceptable” LDL cholesterol

…and still develop coronary plaque, heart attacks, or strokes.

The reason is simple: LDL cholesterol is not the same thing as LDL particles.

And particles are what damage arteries.

That’s where ApoB and Lipoprotein(a) come in.
