"Niveles óptimos de colesterol"

Sin importar dónde vivimos,
what we look like health researchers
la edad que tenemos ni nuestro aspecto,
have discovered that 90 percent of
los investigadores de la salud descubrieron que el 90% de los ataques cardíacos que ocurren por primera vez
having a first heart attack can be attributed to nine modifiable risk
pueden atribuirse a 9 factores de riesgo modificables.

Instituto Cardiovascular Baylor
editor-in-chief of the american journal
y editor en jefe desde hace mucho tiempo
of cardiology is convinced that
de la revista American Journal of Cardiology,
atherosclerosis has a single cause
está convencido de que la ateroesclerosis tiene
namely the cholesterol
una única causa: específicamente, el colesterol;
and that the other so-called
y que los otros supuestos factores de riesgo de ateroesclerosis
atherosclerotic risk factors are only contributory at most in other words we
solo contribuyen, como mucho.
could be stressed overweight smoking
En otras palabras, podríamos ser diabéticos, sedentarios estar estresados,
diabetic couch potatoes but

if our cholesterol is low enough there
pero si nuestro colesterol fuera lo suficientemente bajo,
may be just not enough cholesterol in
podría pasar que simplemente no hubiera suficiente colesterol

walls and trigger the disease thus the
en nuestras paredes arteriales y desencadenar la enfermedad.
only absolute prerequisite for a fatal
Por tanto, el único requisito absoluto
or non-fatal atherosclerotic event like
para un evento ateroesclerótico mortal o no mortal,
a heart attack is an elevated
como un ataque cardíaco,
cholesterol level it was not appreciated until recently
es un nivel elevado de colesterol. No se había advertido hasta hace poco
that the average blood cholesterol level
que el nivel promedio de colesterol en sangre en Estados Unidos,
in the united states the so-called
el que se consideraba “normal”,
normal level was actually abnormal
es en realidad anormal,
accelerating the blockages in our

arteries and putting a large fraction of
y pone a una gran parte
the normal population at risk it's our
de la población normal en riesgo
number one killer
de sufrir la principal causa de muerte de nuestro país.
that's cited as one of the reasons the
Esta es una de las razones por las que la controversia
cholesterol controversy lasted for so
del colesterol duró tanto tiempo:
long an unwillingness to accept the
la negativa a aceptar la idea
notion that a very large fraction of our
de que una gran parte de la población tiene,
population actually has an unhealthily high cholesterol level
en realidad, un nivel elevado y no saludable de colesterol.
normal cholesterol levels may be terminal cholesterol levels
Los niveles “normales” de colesterol pueden ser niveles terminales.
the optimal cholesterol level the
El nivel óptimo de colesterol, el nivel óptimo
optimal bad cholesterol ldl level is 50 to 70.
de “colesterol malo” (LBD), es de 50 a 70.
accumulating data from multiple lines of evidence consistently demonstrate that
Los datos acumulados, procedentes de múltiples líneas de evidencia, demuestran de manera consistente que,
that's where a physiologically normal ldl level would be
fisiológicamente, ese sería un nivel normal de LBD. Ese parece ser el umbral por encima del cual
that appears to be the threshold above which atherosclerosis and heart attacks
se desarrollan la ateroesclerosis y los ataques cardíacos.
develop that's what we start out at birth with
Ese es el nivel que tenemos al nacer,
that's what our fellow primates have
el que tienen los demás primates
that's the level seen in populations free of the heart disease epidemic
y el que se observa en las poblaciones libres de la epidemia de enfermedades cardíacas.
but we can also look at all the big randomized controlled cholesterol
Pero también podemos observar todos los grandes ensayos controlados aleatorizados para disminuir el colesterol.
lowering trials this is graphing the progression of atherosclerosis versus ldl cholesterol
Esta es la gráfica de la progresión de la ateroesclerosis comparada con el colesterol LBD:
more cholesterol more atherosclerosis
más colesterol, más ateroesclerosis.
but if you draw a line down through the points you can estimate that the ldl
Pero, si se traza una línea a través de los puntos, se puede estimar que el nivel de LBD
level at which there is zero progression is down around an ldl cholesterol of 70.
en el que hay cero progresión es de alrededor de 70.
you can do the same with studies preventing heart attacks in the first
Se puede hacer lo mismo con los estudios de prevención de ataques cardíacos.
place zero coronary heart disease events might be reached down around 55
Cero eventos de enfermedades coronarias pueden lograrse alrededor del nivel 55.
and those who've already had a heart attack and trying to prevent a second
Y quienes ya han tenido un ataque cardíaco y quieran prevenir el segundo,
one might need to push their ldl levels even lower
puede que necesiten disminuir todavía más sus niveles de LBD.
atherosclerosis is endemic in our population in part because the average
La aterosclerosis es endémica en nuestra población, en parte, porque la persona promedio tiene
person's ldl cholesterol is up around 130 approximately twice the normal physiologic level
el nivel de colesterol LBD en torno a 130, casi el doble del nivel fisiológico normal.
the reason the federal government doesn't recommend everyone shoot for at least even just under 100 is that
La razón por la que el gobierno federal no recomienda a todos intentar siquiera estar por debajo de 100
despite the lower risk accompanying more optimal cholesterol levels the intensity
es que, a pesar del menor riesgo que acompaña a los niveles de colesterol más óptimos,
of clinical intervention required to
la intensidad de la intervención clínica requerida
achieve such levels for every one of the
para alcanzar dichos niveles para toda la población
population would financially overload the health care system
sobrecargaría financieramente el sistema de salud.
drug usage would rise enormously
El uso de fármacos aumentaría enormemente.
but they're assuming drugs are the only way to get our ldl that low but those
Pero se está asumiendo que los fármacos son la única forma de alcanzar un LBD así de bajo.
eating really plant-based diets
Sin embargo, quienes llevan dietas realmente basadas en plantas
may hit the optimal cholesterol target without even trying just naturally nailing under 70.
pueden alcanzar el colesterol óptimo sin siquiera intentarlo. Logran estar naturalmente por debajo de 70.
the reason given by the federal
La razón que dio el gobierno federal
government for not advocating what the science shows is best was that it might
para no recomendar lo que la ciencia demuestra que es mejor
frustrate the public who would have difficulty maintaining a lower level
fue que esto podría frustrar al público, que tendría dificultades para mantener niveles más bajos.
but maybe the public's greatest frustration would come from not being informed of the optimal
Pero, tal vez, la mayor frustración del público podría deberse a que no le hayan informado

acerca de una dieta óptima para la salud.
