I remember in 2011 when I became maybe 2010-2011 when I became really interested in lipids just basically realizing looking at my family history I'm probably gonna die of heart disease
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.
so on ascbd i've also become far more aggressive on the timing and magnitude of apob reduction
my target apob is between 30 and 40 milligrams per deciliter that's sort of where I aim to be uh day in and day out and obviously that requires you know pharmacological intervention
my apob at the time was probably about 85 to 90 migs per deciliter I mean very few doctors would get phosphorated over that apob in someone in their late 30s or mid-30s at the time but again I'd watched countless men in my family die some of them as young as in their late 40s from heart attacks
he's on you know double therapy now and he walks around with an apob in the 20 to 30 range
