Catch the full session, Demystifying the Lipid Panel with Dr. Ralph Esposito (October 26, 2023)🔍, to clearly understand your cholesterol numbers and what really matters when assessing your heart health.
In today’s expert clip, Dr. Esposito challenges the common notion of “good” and “bad” cholesterol. He explains why total cholesterol isn’t a reliable measure of risk, and why the focus should shift to the lipoproteins—like LDL and HDL—that carry cholesterol through the body. It’s not cholesterol itself that’s the issue, he says, but how it’s packaged and the context of your overall risk.
💡If you’ve ever felt confused by your cholesterol results, this breakdown will help you clear things up and show you what to actually pay attention to!
