. The second biggest crime of this century is the advice to cut back on eating "cholesterol". Just hearing or reading it gives people an erroneous view of the facts. You don't eat cholesterol. You make cholesterol .......when you eat fats.
Cholesterol particles are essentially fat, surrounded in a small phospholipid balloon. The liver creates cholesterol particles. Abundant cholesterol is an absolute requirement of sustaining life.
The question is, or should be, how much fat intake is too much. The answer? It's almost impossible for you to make fat too large a portion of your diet. The body can get its energy requirements from ingested fat or from ingested sugar. Ingested fat is a FAR superior food source than ingested sugar .......FAR.
When modern medical science started examining atherosclerosis and coronary artery disease cases they noticed an abundance of "cholesterol" particles in among the inflammation and atherosclerotic plaque. So they reported that people should stop eating "cholesterol". Government and media diet gurus picked up the gauntlet, and soon this advice became mainstream. However, further study showed this advice to be total horseshit.
The plaque in atherosclerosis is formed by interior inflammation of the arteries. The cholesterol particles which collect on this plaque are small dense LDL (sdLDL) particles. The healthiest people, the ones who eat lots of fat, have livers which produce virtually no sdLDL particles .....none. The liver produces sdLDL particles when it is diseased due to autoimmune and metabolic disease, the same conditions which destroy artery walls. These diseases happen when we ingest foods like sweets, dairy, grassy grains and legumes ......foods which combine simple sugars with opiate proteins and flavonoids.
Further, these foods are the foods which make people fat. If you want to lose weight, and you cut back on these foods, the first thing to happen will be an increase in blood cholesterol. This happens because your body is shifting from consuming these foods to consuming adipose fat. The problem is that your body is attempting this transition using a liver which has been damaged by the foods I mentioned above. As time goes by, liver function improves and cholesterol profiles improve.
