Time Stamps:
00:45 LDL's link with atherosclerosis is nuanced.

03:45 Increases risk of arterial wall damage: elevated blood pressure, insulin resistance/diabetes, smoking/vaping, obesity, elevated blood viscosity, consuming oxidizableoils.
08:40 High LDL and high triglycerides suggest insulin resistance and increased cardiovascular risk.
09:50 Start with diet and exercise together.
11:20 Statins have concerning side effects.
13:15 Plaque formation begins early in life.
13:50 High LDL is found in centenarians.
14:44 Centenarians are metabolically healthy.
15:40 Your liver makes LDL cholesterol.
16:10 Every cell in your body requires cholesterol.
18:00 Diets high in seed oils make your LDL more likely to be oxidized.
20:55 30-50% of people who have heart attacks have optimal serum cholesterol.
