Episode notes
LDL is part of a healing process in those arteries and perhaps LDL is moved into the sub-endothelial space in an active way. Macrophages must in go oxidized LDL particles to make foam cells which are the beginning of a fatty streak and atherosclerosis. I think there are much better indicators of cardiovascular risk, specifically things like elevated triglycerides, elevated fasting insulin and overall insulin resistance in metabolic health.
