Lipid Profile Manipulation

Meaning

Lipid profile manipulation is the targeted clinical intervention aimed at favorably adjusting the concentration and composition of circulating lipoproteins, including High-Density Lipoprotein (HDL), Low-Density Lipoprotein (LDL), and triglycerides. The objective extends beyond simply lowering total cholesterol to optimizing the ratio of atherogenic to non-atherogenic particles, such as reducing small, dense LDL and increasing functional HDL. This is a crucial component of cardiovascular risk reduction and metabolic health management.
