The question the other day was does cholesterol solely cause heart attacks and strokes? Cholesterol is not the root cause—it’s part of the process. From a metabolic health standpoint: * Cholesterol is essential (hormones, cells, vitamin D) * LDL becomes a problem only when the environment is unhealthy What creates that unhealthy environment? * Insulin resistance → drives abnormal fat and sugar metabolism * Inflammation → damages artery walls * Oxidative stress → turns LDL into a harmful form * Endothelial dysfunction → allows particles into artery walls What actually matters more than total cholesterol: * ApoB (number of dangerous particles) * Triglyceride/HDL ratio * hs-CRP (inflammation marker) * Blood sugar & insulin levels Have you checked these important health markers?
