rose...QUOTE from an article in journal of clinical medicie research in June 2012..."sdLDL particles are more easily taken up in the arterial walls and display a high susceptibility to oxidation with their retention in the walls, leading to uptake by macrophages, and thereafter, foam cell formation. The atherosclerotic processes produce oxidative stress"....

My take on this is...It is important to destroy sdLDL particles by oxidizing them...The intact(i.e.non oxidized) EPA particles, when dealing with sdLDL particles, can oxidize these sdLDL particles before their retention in the arterial walls(where they can be oxidized there.. and thus the EPA particles can prevent atherosclerosis and CVD events.
