Comments on: If LDL lipoproetin "causes" CAD, then WHY did the GISSI study find MAJOR CAD reductions with INCREASED LDL? http://www.mybadcholesterol.com/ldl-levels/if-ldl-lipoproetin-causes-cad-then-why-did-the-gissi-study-find-major-cad-reductions-with-increased-ldl A Natural, Simple, Little Known Solution Mon, 03 May 2010 00:44:59 -0500 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: Joe T http://www.mybadcholesterol.com/ldl-levels/if-ldl-lipoproetin-causes-cad-then-why-did-the-gissi-study-find-major-cad-reductions-with-increased-ldl/comment-page-1#comment-2347 Joe T Mon, 18 Jan 2010 11:16:59 +0000 http://www.mybadcholesterol.com/ldl-levels/if-ldl-lipoproetin-causes-cad-then-why-did-the-gissi-study-find-major-cad-reductions-with-increased-ldl#comment-2347 There are no LDL studies in the GISSI study and they did not report finding major CAD reductions with increased LDL's. You can check it out here: www.gissi.org The Lyon Study information provided above is wrong for 2-reasons: 1. It specifically stated that the overall DIET were factors, not just cholesterol 2. "The findings from this study imply risk factors beyond lipids and lipoproteins (cholesterol) that have been our primary focus in secondary prevention. The fact that omega-3 fatty acids exert cardioprotective effects in several ways suggests that they could have accounted for the results that were observed.", from http://www.americanheart.org/presenter.jhtml?identifier=4655 What they DO say is that the DIET including OTHER FACTORS COULD HAVE accounted for cardioprotection.
