Careful with treating an unchanged LDL-C as a failure. If ApoB and triglycerides both fell, the particle picture improved regardless of what the calculated LDL says.

Comprehensive lipid panel update relevant to the lipid panel:
| Marker | Baseline | 6 Months | 12 Months | Reference |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Total Cholesterol | 259 | 204 | 184 | <200 |
| LDL | 154 | 139 | 104 | <100 |
| HDL | 47 | 54 | 61 | >40 |
| Triglycerides | 279 | 194 | 104 | <150 |
| LDL-P | 1699 | 1249 | 949 | <1000 |
The triglyceride drop is the most impressive. My cardiologist reduced my statin dose based on these results.

Before/after bloodwork compilation for the lipid panel — everything in one place for those who want comprehensive data:
| Category | Marker | Before | After 14mo | Change |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Metabolic | A1C | 7.8% | 5.6% | ⬇️ 2.0% |
| Metabolic | Fasting Glucose | 119 | 91 | ⬇️ 29 |
| Lipids | LDL | 152 | 96 | ⬇️ 54 |
| Lipids | Triglycerides | 254 | 109 | ⬇️ 104 |
| Inflammation | hsCRP | 7.5 | 1.2 | ⬇️ 5.0 |
Every single metabolic marker improved. This is why I'm a believer in this therapy.
