Kind of AI slop written thread but a good starter if you want to get deep into why cholesterol is mostly a hoax and the wrong indicator to follow if you want to avoid heart disease and strokes in the future My dad is a cardiologist and told me this for ages Best thing you can do is avoid processed foods, seed oils, sugar (and of course alcohol and smoking). It inflammes your body When you eat clean diet of whole foods: meat, eggs, vegetables, fruit and drink water or sparkling water and black coffee or tea, your body heals and inflammation disappears and you'll just feel better (and happier!) I still meet people who think eating meat daily is bad, when all the studies were based on processed meat like eating sausages, not whole cuts of unprocessed meat It doesn't help that eating meat means your cholesterol gets high (of course it does) but that doesn't mean you should blindly follow it and stop eating meat and go on statins (with its side effects) I get regular artery ultrasound scans for plaque, and mine are completely clean while I eat lots of meat, also I checked my LP(a) which shows I don't have the genetic marker for heart disease
