Read about it and be informed, not just info from MDs or the traditional pro Rx drug sites.

Just wanted to say there was just a research study that came out yesterday or at least was reported on the radio then. It stated that the concern over LDL for so many years is being reconsidered. Unfortunately, I can't tell you where to look for the research. I was in my car and heard it on the radio. Possibly put in new research on LDL's.
I also agree, I think the triglycerides should be looked at more carefully.
