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.
but when you have people where their CAC score is greater than zero what is that telling us they have a bunch of fires going on and so all the wood they have floating around that LDL is much more likely to create plaque formation and drive cardiovascular disease
now is LDL the problem no it's not the direct problem the fires are the problem but the LDL is involved in this in this in gets involved in this process
so with all this going on if LDL is higher then yeah it would make sense that you're going to have this problem because you have all these fires going on and so the LDL has a lot of opportunity to intera act with those fires and create the problem
