WHY have scores of studies found a complete lack of correlation between LDL and total cholesterol levels and extent of atherosclerosis????
WHY have numerous tightly - controlled clinical dietary intervention trials completely failed to produce any reduction in CHD DESPITE the fact that cholesterol levels were indeed lower in the treatment group????
WHY have controlled clinical studies observed that more atherosclerotic regression, less decrease in luminal diameter, fewer cardiovascular events and significant decreases in mortality amoung patients taking fish oil DESPITE the fact that it RAISED serum LDL cholesterol levels????
WHERE is your discussion of the fact that statins exert anti - inflammatory and anti - atherogenic effects even when their cholesteroil lowering abilities have been disabled????
To claim that elevated LDL or total cholesterol promotes atherosclerosis DEFIES LOGIC in the face of such observations
CONFRONT YOUR DOCTOR ON THIS.
