🚫 Lowering cholesterol doesn’t automatically mean lowering your heart disease risk. Statins may help a small fraction of people, but cardiovascular health goes way beyond total cholesterol. 🔍 True prevention lies in understanding your particle size, oxidized LDL, inflammation levels, ApoB, homocysteine, and triglycerides. Before starting a statin, it’s time to look deeper — through advanced cardiovascular testing and targeted lifestyle correction. #FunctionalMedicine #HeartHealth #CholesterolMyths #ApoB
