We can pick apart studies all day long, but the link between saturated fat and cholesterol is hard to deny.

Were I you I would get my ApoB checked. If it’s low, then great! Keep doing what you’re doing! But don’t give yourself a heart attack following the latest fad diet.

I appreciate the pointers.

I definitely do _not_ understand the first thing about cholesterol and adverse cardiovascular events.

Certainly high on my list of things to be able to model by the end of the year.

I have spent a fair amount of time in the lab (mostly dry, with a little bit of wet lab), so have good foundations, just that's an area I haven't had time to deep dive in yet.
