0:00 Intro
0:30 LDL does not correlate with the degree of coronary artery plaque.
1:02 HDL is protective against coronary artery disease and plaquing.
2:10 Triglycerides correlate with diabetes, coronary artery disease and plaquing.
3:45 HDL size is highly predictive.
5:15 LDL, vLDL, and IDL had no strong association.
8:00 LDL may be lower with prediabetes and diabetes, reflecting imbalance.
12:10 HDL is increased by lifestyle.
13:00 Plaquing is more common in diabetics.
15:47 High triglycerides increase odds of metabolic disease by 100%.
18:00 The smaller HDL particles become, the less protective they are.
19:13 Coronary artery calcium is associated with HDL size, concentration and composition.
21:20 High HDL with low triglycerides is linked with better metabolic health.
23:10 Exercise increases the size and number of your protective HDL.
