As far as I have read LDL by itself doesn’t block arteries. Arterial plaque, or calcification attracts LDL to help repair it - in a healthy individual LDL does many things, and repair is one of them -, but for people with advanced cardio vascular disease the “emergency equipment” might end up blocking the entire roadway.
