Paul Saladino's LDL cholesterol runs between 250-300 mg/dL, but his Coronary Artery Calcium (CAC) score has remained zero on two separate tests over three years.

“and right now i have an ldl that's very high the other asterisk i'll add to my own personal story is that when my father was 43 he had a heart attack so i have a family history in a first degree relative of early coronary atherosclerosis and yet my coronary artery calcium score remains zero”

“i know that i have had an ldl more than 300 for more than two years and i've had an ldl over 100 for probably 15 plus years because i eat i ate a paleo diet”

“i've shown in the past that when i had that ldl of 500. i had a coronary artery calcium scan look july 20th 2020 same time my coronary artery calcium score was zero zero”

“I did have a CT or a a CAC score, so I had a calcium score. Not as good as a CT coronary angio, but I had a coronary artery calcium score in 2020 and it was zero. At that point, I was 42 or 43, I believe. And um interestingly, you know, my father had an angioplasty when he was about that age. So, I certainly have a family history of accelerated coronary artery disease. At that point in my life, my LDL was 500.”

“I had no calcium so it had a coronary artery calcium score and so when plaque gets Advanced it gets calcified doesn't mean I had no plaque okay because you can you can see soft plaque on something called a CT coronary angiogram and I want to have one of those but I haven't had that but I had no Advanced calcified bad plaque I had a calcium score of zero”

“My LDL runs between 250 and 300. My CAC score checked twice, three years apart, has remained zero. Zero.”
