Okay....but what if you have small, dense, non buoyant LDL? That’s what I have. Been told it’s hereditary, not good, and the best thing to do is eat healthy and exercise...which I do. VAP Cholesterol tests tell you this.
It just shows that cholesterol chemistry can be a very idiosyncratic thing and people shouldn’t make inferences from experiments using subjects with different traits.
Congratulations on sticking to the healthful diet and exercise (more than I can claim).
