Cholesterol is not bad for us and it helps us make cell membranes, many hormones, and vitamin D. Eggs are one of the most nutritious foods on the planet and same goes for red, ruminant meat. Chickens, turkeys, porks are mono gastric animals, meaning that whatever crappy diet they get fed, thats pretty much what you will be eating. Most Ruminant animals have four-chambered stomach and their meat, even the cheapest will be far more nutritious and bio available for digestion. I'd say def study the Carnivore diet and Prof. Bart Kay will surely put you on the right track. He also answers questions on his YT channel if you comment below his video.


Raw cheese is super healthy as well if you can get some. I like not raw as well and it helps my sensitive gut, which is very interesting.


It's 2023 and everyone who says Cholesterol is a bad thing, or offers Cholesterol lowering diets, etc, IMO, should be avoided like poison. But I will let you do all the watching and reading and be the judge for yourself.
