Are you talking about the AIM HIGH Study that was stopped early because they weren't getting the results they expected??

No! As I stated before your still within range which is considered normal for 95% of the people tested.
As also said Statins lower this number and that's why big pharma jumps all over using these figures and if they were to say niacin (a Supplement!!!) offers better protection then their billion dollar Cash cow what do you think would happen to their gravey train???
If you studied what LP PLA2 is you'll see it's only a small part of a complex process an it has been a focus by big pharma saying it's the king pin of heart disease Why? because statins have an effect on it but you have to dig real deep to find that so does low dose asprin.
As the tide turns and reality starts coming to light as it's starting to now with the new cholesterol guidelines a lot of these falacies will have to be undone so science can see how the human body really works. Then Vitamin C will be the shining star as the true preventer of heart disease as most of us here at this forum already know.
