| Synthetic oxidants | Synthetic antioxidants: EDTA, probucol |
| Oxidative dyslipidemias | All of the above |
Unoxidized and “undenatured” cholesterol, like pure water, is essential for life. Oxidized and denatured cholesterol, like polluted water, causes disease. Cholesterol, a weak antioxidant, prevents AA oxidopathy. Hypercholesterolemia is a negative adaptive response to insidious oxidopathy. Excess cholesterol, when oxidized, fans its oxidative flames.
