What type of fat is better for you and why?

Unsaturated fats are better for you than saturated fats. Saturated fat heightens the amount of total cholesterol in the body, and the type of LDL cholesterol, which blocks arteries, to detrimental effects. Unsaturated fat lowers LDL cholesterol, because it contains HDL cholesterol, which takes the LDL cholesterol to the liver and they are broken down there.

What does it mean if you have high LDL-P?

LDL-P stands for 'LDL-Particles' (as opposed to LDL-C which is LDL-Cholesterol). It's measured with a blood test commonly called "the particle test", and your LDL-P tells you the number of LDL particles in your blood. Usually LDL-P is measured along with LDL-C to obtain a more complete, detailed measure of cardiovascular risk - some doctors believe that particle levels as well as total cholesterol matter. Treatment strategies differ depending on the relationship between LDL-P and LDL-C, so there's not a 'cut and dried' target number for LDL-P (as there is for LDL-C).


What is the difference between LDL and cholesterol?

LDL (low-density lipoprotein) is a type of cholesterol that carries cholesterol from the liver to cells in the body.

LDL is a specific type of cholesterol that can contribute to plaque buildup in arteries, leading to heart disease.
