the half-life of an LDL particle is about a day now it can be longer but that's a pathologic state which gets back to this a possi three thing that's interesting yeah you can have a pathologic state where LDLs will hang around longer
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.

Given that the half-life of his LDL is a day
you know the LDL low density lipoproteins you know half-life is like about a day maybe closer to two days not what is commonly discussed is two to four days that's incorrect the residence time might exceed that it might be at that level total residence time but not the half-life
