New and More Dangerous Cholesterol Found In Your Blood (Lipoprotein(a) - LPa)

Lipoprotein(a) or Lp(a) is a type of lipoprotein that consists of a cholesterol-rich LDL (low-density lipoprotein) particle linked to a unique protein called apolipoprotein(a). Elevated levels of Lp(a) are associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases, as it may contribute to the development of atherosclerosis.

Lp(a) appears to have a role in the early stages of blood clotting and may interfere with the breakdown of blood clots. High levels of Lp(a) are considered a risk factor for coronary artery disease and other cardiovascular problems. However, the exact mechanisms by which Lp(a) contributes to these issues are not fully understood.

It's worth noting that while Lp(a) is a risk factor, managing overall cardiovascular health involves a combination of factors, including lifestyle changes, diet, and, in some cases, medication.
