““Studies clearly demonstrate that the higher one’s cholesterol level, the higher the risk of heart disease; conversely, the lower one’s cholesterol level, the lower the risk. For true protection, do not be satisfied until your LDL cholesterol is below 100. There is nothing particularly magical about the number 200—heart disease risk continues to decrease as one’s cholesterol decreases below this level. The average cholesterol level in China is 127. The Framingham Heart Study showed that participants with cholesterol levels below 150 did not have heart attacks.29 In fact, most heart attacks occur in patients whose cholesterol runs between 175 and 225.
