Some items for your consideration:
“Your body will naturally put the LDL in a 120 to 160 range and make it fluffy if you keep off the bad oils and cheap carbs.”
[Fluffy “beachball like” LDL is what you need to transport hormones - small particle size results from bad oils and cheap carbs.]
Here is what I was trying to quote from memory...
“Additionally, it has been shown that CAD progresses when the LDL is over 180
and cancer progresses when the LDL is under 100.”
“So given this fact, why lower LDL and risk cancer due to the lack of hormones.” [LDL transports hormones]
“If one manages the intake of cheap carbs and bad fats, the LDL automatically falls into the good range of 110 to 180 and HDL jumps to between 65 and 85.
“It appears to be that simple. From the author’s own experience, this holds to be true. I have the tests to prove it.”

I take the concentrated K with vitamin d.
I only started about a month ago after Conservative made a post about it.
I’m hoping that that will increase my HDL above it current 48. But have to say I have never broken 50 with HDL. And I have been off the carbs sugars and bad fats for a couple years now.
So there has to be genetic component to it.
For example I’ve read about with very high ldl levels who were in great shape because their hdl levels were very high too.
My understanding currently is that what’s important is the ratio betwee hdl and ldl. You want to get them close to 1:1 or 2:1 if you can.
I crestor for a statin—not so much because it lowers ldl but because it lowers inflammation.
