But when you look at LDL and you look at the lifetime exposure to LDL, it is like a linear effect on 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.
it's not only really the magnitude of LDL elevation but it's the duration of exposure so even exposure to mild or moderately elevated LDL for a sufficient number of years has increased the risk of ascbd to an earlier onset compared to individuals who have had lifetime low LDL

It showed that prolonged exposure to lower LDL-C was associated with a greater reduction in heart disease risk:
