Let's set things straight. Dietary cholesterol (from food) has little impact on your cholestrol levels in your blood because your own body produces cholesterol, which is essential for the basic functions of your brain and other many organs.

And saturated fats are actually really good for you. We human beings have been consuming meats and fats for thousands of years and why did CVD and obesity epidemic only showed up in the 1900s ?

I end my post here with 2 high educational videos for the uninformed. Sekian smile.gif

Thanks for sharing this. I'm particularly fascinated by the first video on cholesterol. I remember watching another video previously with a similar message but this one is better.
I have higher than normal HDL and LDL, but workout out regularly and eat a healthier diet than most people I know so this discovery is pretty interesting to me.

High HDL is a sign for lower risk of CVD. If your triglycerides is low as well, it's even better as it shows your consumption of carbohydrates are low. I wouldn't worry too much about LDL unless they are the small and oxidized one. However if you smoke, you are definitely at high risk for CVD.

Certainly all these "new" information can be hard to comprehend at first but give it time and people will come to realize about the truth regarding fats, saturated fats, cholesterol, etc.

I don't smoke and have a very low triglycerides level, so after the most recent blood test I told myself that I'm just going to continue things as normal as I honestly don't see what else I can do to reduce the LDL level. I'm certainly not going to consider statins.
