+Lipoproteins are water-soluble structures that transport lipids through the bloodstream. Lipoproteins are needed because fat is hydrophobic.
+- Chylomicron mostly carries triglycerides
+- High density lipoprotein (HDL) carries the most protein (45-50%), and roughly 30% phospholipids
+- Low density lipoprotein (LDL) carries the most cholesterol
+- Very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) carries triglycerides from the liver into the bloodstream, where cells that line capillaries break down the triglycerides into fatty acids and glycerol
