Evidence and Risk Labels

Evidence A/B/C reflects research maturity, and risk levels reflect monitoring needs. These labels support comparison, not diagnosis or treatment decisions.

Guidance Summary

Lifestyle modification is first-line for dyslipidemia. Statins have the strongest evidence for cardiovascular risk reduction. Natural approaches (omega-3, plant sterols, soluble fiber) provide meaningful adjunctive support.

Top Interventions

  • dietary modification (reduce saturated fat, increase soluble fiber)
  • physical activity
  • statin therapy when indicated
  • omega-3 for triglycerides
  • plant sterols for LDL

Monitoring Priorities

  • fasting lipid panel
  • non-HDL cholesterol
  • apolipoprotein B
  • LDL-P if available
