One note: you should get HS-CRP done, and NOT CRP, because the latter does go low enough for most keto folks. For instance, my previous HS-CRP was around 0.2, but I accidentally got CRP last time, which just said “<3”, because it doesn’t go low enough.
Of course, with all of these, they don’t make complete sense. Here’s one paragraph:
I have high LDL, high ApoB, very, very high Lp(a), yet quite low HS-CRP. What does that mean?
In theory, with minimal inflammation, your risk for atherosclerosis is low. I’m in the same boat as you. Time will tell🤞🏻
I do check hsCRP, but sedimentation rate would be a better move for that use, since it’s over a longer period of time. hsCRP is all over the place depending on a laundry list of things that can screw with acute inflammation. But measuring chronic inflammation is more telling in that use case.
You should look into Cardarine. People can pretend it causes cancer all they want despite that being debunked, it’s very good at doing it’s job.

My cholesterol has remained more or less like the end result since then. I’m doing another NMR soon to see if the breakdown has changed, but the main ones haven’t since then.
I did get a sedimentation rate done (once, last year):
This year:
I’ll look into Cardarine.
