The lower the LDL the better! If you have had a heart attack, have heart disease, smoker or diabetic, your goal LDL is not less than 100, it is less than 70! Not 72, not 84. Less. Than. 70. Why? Because there have been multiple (a lot!) of clinical trials that show the lower the LDL, the less risk you have of dying of heart disease- and heart disease is the number one killer of Americans! And before anyone even goes there- no- you don’t need a higher LDL for “brain function”. #cardiology #preventivemedicine #cardiologist #medicine #queenofhearts #heartdisease #privatepractice #topdoc #cholesterol #heartattack #themoreyouknow
