A Killer Component of LDL- Cholesterol

Back to Previous Page

It is important to understand the role of lipoprotein relative to health and well being. Although modifying blood lipoprotein (a), or Lp(a) levels is not easy, it CAN be done with nutrition.

Considered a strong, independent genetic risk for atherosclerosis, Lp(a) has been linked to two functional bodily systems:

  • a lipid transport system and
  • the blood-clotting system.

Because of that, Lp(a) - assembled from LDL-"bad" cholesterol - has a direct impact on the development of atherosclerosis. It is able to:

  • bind to fibrin clots in the injured arterial endothelium (the innermost lining of arteries) and, therefore,
  • deliver cholesterol to that region in order to heal the wound. In this way, it contributes to the formation of fatty plaques (atheromas).

From that perspective, the role of this little-known killer component of LDL-'bad' cholesterol in atherogenesis can be both

  • long-term, due to its lipoprotein properties, and
  • short-term, due to its fibrin-binding properties.

Further, it may cause the sudden, and more dangerous, development of arterial blood clots.

Know Your Blood Lp(a) Levels

Keep in mind that the Lp(a) fat globule is one of the stickiest particles in the body, and is a ten-fold greater risk factor for atherosclerosis than total cholesterol or LDL-"bad" cholesterol.

In adults, blood lipoprotein (a) levels

  • less than 10 mg/dL are considered acceptable
  • 11-24 mg/dL is borderline high
  • higher than 25 mg/dL is very high.

If your Lp(a) levels are over 10, you need to take action at once.

So, if you haven't checked your Lp(a) yet, do it at your next physical checkup. And don't be afraid to ask your doctor for it! Very few physicians ever check for it, in heart patients, it should be routinely screened.

Niaspan® Therapy

Lp(a) has not had enough attention from medical researchers. Therefore, standard medicine has not discovered any specific drugs to lower Lp(a) yet.

It's been said that very little could be done to modify Lp (a) levels, because these blood levels are 95 percent determined by genetics. Fortunately, this statement is patently false.

A drug called Niaspan - approved in the United States by FDA in 1999 for increasing HDL-"good" cholesterol levels - has shown to have a positive effect on lowering Lp(a) levels. However, the key nutritional ingredient in this drug is niacin (vitamin B3). Unfortuantelly, this drug has side effects, such as:

  • flushing, which is characterized by redness, tingling, or itching that typically occurs on the face, neck, chest, and back
  • upset stomach. and
  • rash.

In addition, Niaspan® is contraindicated for those of you with:

  • active liver disease, or a past history of liver or kidney disease
  • peptic ulcers
  • arterial bleeding.

The Nutritional Therapy

In our clinical experience, TGs Reduction Formula™ helps
  • stabilize the body's blood sugar levels
  • correct and optimize the natural processes (biochemical and enzymatic) of fat metabolism
  • stimulate plasma lipoprotein lipase (involved in the catabolism of triglycerides)
  • protect the liver against increases in fatty acids
  • improve the ratio of unsaturated fatty acids to saturated fatty acids in the blood
  • reduce the levels of blood triglycerides
  • increase the levels of HDL-"good" cholesterol, and
  • reduce the levels of Lp(a).
