I just had my Apo B tested along with the other lipid numbers for my annual physical. Other than eating ~1.5 to 2 lbs of red meat per week (usually 90/10 ground beef but occasionally roast or a Whopper from BK) and eating a true serving of Mini-Wheats cereal most days, my diet is good (oatmeal, beans, chicken, fruits, vegetables, etc.). My results:
Apo B: 100
HDL: 63
LDL: 143
Trig: 42
Total: 214
Total/HDL = 3.4
Trig/HDL = 0.67
The two ra
tios indicate a very low chance of a cardiac event but my Apo B number is above the recommended max of 90. What do you think? How would you interpret this data?
