About this listen
Cholesterol is one of the most talked-about molecules in medicine — and one of the most misunderstood. It’s essential for life, but when carried in the wrong lipoproteins, it becomes the driving force behind atherosclerosis.
In this episode of LipidCurious, we step away from the headlines and hype to explore what cholesterol really means for clinical practice and board prep.
Here’s what we’ll unpack together:
1. The Cholesterol paradox — why it’s both essential and dangerous.
2. How cholesterol is carried and measured in blood.
3. LDL-C in clinical practice — Targets, Percent Reduction, and How Low is Too Low
