[QUOTE="JohnTaylorHK, post: 152083, member: 33105"] I have had high cholesterol, according to every MD who ever tested me, since I was 35. I decided recently (age 63), as my LDL was twice the maximum, to do something about it. I follow a ketogenic diet and so 80% of my diet is fat. I cut down saturated fat by removing coconut oil (!) from my diet and reducing my beef intake to 50% of previous, whilst making up the caloric shortfall with chicken (gristle, skin etc not just the white meat), thereby increasing my intake of polyunsaturated fat. Within one month, my LDL is just at the top of the maximum range (i.e. it halved) and my total cholesterol is just a tad over the maximum. I am doing another lipid profile next week (end of month 2). I think there are some truths to the bigGovt positions on the effects of SFA/PFA etc, but it is almost certainly depends on individual susceptibility. Hope this helps someone. Namaste. [/QUOTE]
