Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
and if we just hyperfocus on these LDL on these LDL values and be like oh we need to just smash LDL all the way down less than 30 milligrams per Deiter with drugs so we can lower our risk it's like I guess that's one way that you could go about it but it's kind of a crude fashion to go about treating heart disease when we need to like the LDL itself needs to be ify it and have this inflammatory signaling process and all type of stuff go on to actually have this effect
