[QUOTE="FireDragon76, post: 77519420, member: 330042"] Apo(B) is a protein attached to some LDL particles that are much more likely to contribute to cardiovascular disease. Therefore, it's a more accurate test than just looking at total cholesterol or LDL, though in the majority of people, total cholesterol is an adequate marker for CVD risk, but it isn't as good a marker as Apo(B). If your total cholesterol is below 150, and your LDL is below 80, the arteries stop developing new plaque, and over time, the total amount of arterial plaque should decrease. Populations that have been studied that have cholesterol levels that low, very rarely develop cardiovascular disease. [/QUOTE]
