@drmohammedalo: 🚨 Your cholesterol panel can lie to you. The test that will not lie is cheap, needs no fasting, and most doctors never order it. It is called ApoB. Here is what the science actually says. 🩺 I am a cardiologist. I have patients who walk in with a "normal" LDL and dangerous ApoB numbers every single week. 🔬 Here is the problem with the standard panel. LDL cholesterol estimates how much cholesterol is riding inside your particles. ApoB counts the actual number of particles. More particles means more opportunities to get stuck in your artery wall. That is the real story behind your risk. 💓 ApoB is one blood draw. No fasting required. It costs about the same as the panel you already get every year. 🎯 The number to ask for: Under 90 milligrams per deciliter for most adults. Under 65 milligrams per deciliter if you already have heart disease or diabetes. ✅ The fastest way to move that number is cutting saturated fat. Not a supplement. Not a cleanse. Your fork. ✅ If diet alone is not enough, statins, ezetimibe, and PCSK9 inhibitors are proven to lower ApoB and lower cardiovascular risk. These are not theories. They are backed by decades of trial data. ❌ A fish oil pill will not fix a high ApoB. ❌ A multivitamin will not fix a high ApoB. ❌ Hoping your "normal" LDL tells the whole story will not fix a high ApoB. ❤️ Bottom line: Your LDL number can look fine while your actual risk is high. ApoB closes that gap. It is one request at your next visit. Ask your doctor for this test by name. Full breakdown on the blog.
