http://LivinLaVidaLowCarb.com/blog blogger Jimmy Moore and his wife Christine are tired of the lies being told by the pharmaceutical companies connecting heart health with cholesterol levels and share the truth with you today in the latest installment of their popular “Livin’ La Vida Low-Carb on YouTube” series.

In Episode 69, Jimmy and Christine take a look at this myth that having high LDL and total cholesterol will lead to heart disease, heart attacks and death. This needless scare mongering is not grounded in scientific evidence which points more to the ratio between HDL and triglycerides as a key indicator of Heart Health risks:

The LDL particle size is what is most important when you are measuring your lipid panel, so having one of the two major particle size tests done is critical. The VAP Cholesterol Test can be found at http://www.atherotech.com and the NMR LipoProfile test (which Jimmy HIGHLY recommends!) is at http://nmrlipoprofile.com Get your doctor to run one of these tests to know if your LDL particles are the large, fluffy, protective kind or the small, dense, dangerous ones you want to avoid.

Here’s a blog post Jimmy wrote about his 326 total cholesterol:
