ApoB: The Key Heart Health Predictor
Apolipoprotein B (ApoB) has emerged as the most significant and powerful predictor for long-term heart health, surpassing traditional biomarkers like LDL “bad cholesterol.”
ApoB is the primary protein component of atherogenic particles, which are responsible for plaque formation and the development of heart disease. Leading health organizations like the American Heart Association (AHA) and the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) recognize the importance of ApoB and recommend its use over traditional LDL testing in their latest guidelines for cardiologists.
