how do we lower apoB?
let’s tackle this, how to lower apoB, actionable tips

1) What’s apoB?!?
not sure what apoB is? you're not alone. apoB is a marker of lipoprotein particles in our blood, and specifically the atherogenic lipoproteins, the particles that accumulate in the artery wall and cause plaque, atherosclerosis, heart disease

apoB is one of the key factors for plaque, more than cholesterol, ldl-cholesterol, hdl-cholesterol, triglycerides. keeping apoB in a healthy range is crucial for cardiovascular health

apoB = risk for heart disease, diabetes, length of life

“higher apoB increases risk of coronary heart disease and type 2 diabetes. lowering apoB should prevent common diseases"

desirable range for apoB = under 90mg/dL

80+ studies on food and apoB. factors that lower apoB:

Weight loss. apoB was reduced upon weight loss

when we lose weight, we produce less VLDLs (atherogenic particles), which can turn into LDLs. so less atherogenic particles and lower apoB

Unsaturated fat lowers apoB

Shifting to Unsaturated fat has a robust apoB lowering effect. switching some carbohydrate with Unsaturated fat can also lower apoB

“Replacement of carbohydrate by MUFA, not SFA, decreased plasma apoB” more unsaturated fats is key to lower apoB

soluble fiber lowers apoB, reduces absorption of cholesterol which helps lower apoB

800mg/d of cholesterol raised apoB
phytosterols lower apoB

high levels of purified fructose can raise apoB. people drinking fructose-sweetened beverages had higher apoB

trans fats can raise apoB

soy protein may lower apoB

which dietary patterns lower apoB?
any pattern rich in unsaturated fats should be good for apoB

Medications that help lower apoB: statins, pcsk9inhibitors, ezetimibe, omega3
