1. Get the right cholesterol tests. Check NMR particle sizes for cholesterol by asking your doctor for this test at Labcorp or LipoScience. You want to know if you have safe light and fluffy cholesterol particles, or small dense, artery damaging cholesterol particles. A regular cholesterol test won't tell you this.
True, but if you have already been diagnosed with blockages or coronary artery disease you can pretty much know that you have the smaller dense type of particles.
