if you have a robust HDL 65 or 85 there's essentially no increase in your risk or Ana negligible risk as your LDL goes up

The evidence is convergent. Multiple independent sources reach the same conclusion, the underlying mechanism is well-characterized, and even the field's most cautious voices treat it as worth doing.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.
Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
and you can see it in hdl of 85 or even 65 there's almost no increase in risk in ldl as you go from 100 to 220
in this hdl 25 group there's a hugely increased risk relative risk as you go from 100 to 220 milligrams per deciliter of ldl
if we stratify these two variables by HDL we see that the relationship between LDL and coronary artery disease is completely dependent on HDL with hdls of 85 mine is 90 remember from my labs having essentially no correlation between LDL and coronary artery disease but if you have an HDL of 25 there's a significant correlation between your LDL and coronary artery disease
