Anyone in Boston might be interested in BOSTON HEART
CHOLESTEROL BALANCE test. https://bostonheartdiagnostics.com/...6/02031115-CBT-Treatment-Algorithm_160108.pdf
"Studies show patients with the highest cholesterol production get the greatest benefit from statin therapy in terms of LDL-C lowering and heart disease risk reduction, while those with elevated cholesterol absorption get the least"
My rudimentary understanding is that it is supposed to show more about why your cholesterol might be high: hyper responder to it in food, overproduced in your own body, impaired ability to clear it from your body and that finding these sterols in your blood provides clues.
It looks kind of cool honestly though whether it is of use I cannot say. I thought some of you might like to look at it.
