High Lipoprotein(a) but CAC Score 0

@gloaming I believe it because when I eat saturated fat my cholesterol jumps . I don't eat meat anymore. And very little saturated fat which is keeping my cholesterol good 44 for LDL
103 for LP(a) when I ate high fat it was very bad (LDL) so I believe my cardiologist and my doctors . And the proof of my lab results. It's ok to disagree. We can have different beliefs 😉

I think that much of these different reactions may be driven more by individual differences in our bodies rather than different beliefs.
Our bodies just act differently towards fats and different foods and nutrients and even thru different ages of our lives.
Ai says it this way:
People react differently to fats and other nutrients due to a complex interplay of genetics, gut microbiome composition, and metabolic health. This concept, known as personalized nutrition or nutrigenetics, explains why a diet like the Atkins diet (high-fat, low-carb) can yield vastly different results for two people even if they follow it identically.
research with different people and even identical twins and how the react differently:
