Imagine your body to be a traffic jam; and your blood being the road. LDL cholesterol circuits are truck rebels which release poisonous sludge (plaque) on the highway. The HDL particles work sloppily and go out of hand, the best points of home cleaning. And in case there is congestion of arteries then you will be in a cardiovascular disaster

In recent studies, it has been revealed that this robbery is older than before being believed. A review of 2.6 million other adults aged up to 40 years over the course of 10 years showed that adults that experienced an increase in the level of cholesterol in their bodies had an increased risk of developing a heart attack by approximately 21 per cent. On the other hand, the decline in its quantity reduced risk by 35 per cent.

🔍 The LDL Deception: Why “Normal” Lab Results Lie

I am normal in cholesterol, and I have clogged arteries!

And the ludicrous fact is, LDL, even in so-called normal (100-129 mg/dl), is, in fact, the cause of plaque. It is impossible to reduce LDL to a point where atherosclerosis becomes effectively non-existent, as it is observed in lifelong vegans, unless LDL levels are lowered to less than 50-70 mg/dl.

The Myth About HDL Busted:

We have spent years in a leapfrogging pursuit of high HDL that is heart-protective. However, now the studies indicate:

• It does not prevent heart attack through artificially increasing HDL using drugs
• Plant diets produce so-called Super HDL particles, having at least a stronger effect in anti-inflammatory effect

The Genetic Wild Card: When Diet Isn’t Enough

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH), a generic and secretive disease that one out of two hundred and fifty people can be afflicted with. Such victims as a 38-year-old man, James, are left with an LDL of above 190 mg/dl after running a marathon to eating kale salads every single day. Without the medication, half of the victimized people of the FH who are male sex have heart attacks prior to the age of 50.

Red Flags of Genetic Testing

• LDL More than 190 mg/dl
• The family history of early heart attack
• Cholesterol- resistance to diet/ exercise

⚔️ The Cholesterol Battle Plan: 3 Weapons That Work

1. Movement Revolution

• 30-minute rule: Domen brisk walking increases HDL by 10 percent within 3 months of daily brisk walking
• Post-meal trick: After eating walks of 2 minutes counteract hypertriglyceridemia

2. The Trick of Timing

The highest level of cholesterol in the body occurs between 2-6 am. The use of statins at bedtime has a 30% higher outcome.

3. The Secret of screening

Have a test every 5 years at the age of 20 and when it is possible, insist on modern testing using particles:

• Your normal LDL contains family heart disease
• HDL is low in case of healthy habits
• Filtered triglycerides >150 mg/dl

❗ Cholesterol Emergencies:

Symptoms + Out of the blue + conditions = Life threatening crisis:

Plaque rupture: Jaw/arm/arm (and cold sweat)

Clot tsunami; One-sided weakness/slurred speech (signs of stroke)

Silent assault: Destructive fatigue + edema to the ankle (women, most especially)

🔮 The Future of Cholesterol Warfare

Experimental revolutionary therapy:

mRNA “vaccines” – program the liver to produce LDL permanently lesser on an occasional basis

Gene editing – CRISPR of familial hypercholesterolemia

💡 Your Heart-Saving Checklist

1.         Know your numbers: in high-risk LDL less than 70 mg/ dL

2.         Test children: a family with heart disease pre-maturity

3.         Upgrade fats: Replace butter with avocado/ olive oil

4.         Time: during meals, exercise more than 30 minutes (ten minutes of exercise)

Conclusion

One of the things which are damaged is the cholesterol when one is not too young to have damaged arteries. The war starts at 20 too and that is where the prevention will start too.
