A member asked:
Are there ways to differentiate between apob48 and apob100, and measure chylomicrons on a test? since apob48 is intestinal, and apob100 is from the liver, do ldl lowering treatment plans differ for which type? ie -will psyllium husk lower apob100?

All laboratory results need to be interpreted in the clinical context and the doctor who ordered the tests is usually in the best position to do that. Talk to the doctor who ordered the tests. Having said that, do not be concerned about B48 or B100. If you are overweight, lose some, exercise 30 minutes/ day and talk to your doctor. Wish you good health!
