When are we finally going to wake up and admit that cholesterol is not the primary villain here. Sure lose weight and your Cholesterol levels will go down but that is because other more important factors are coming into a healthy line. When we pitch cholesterol up against other bio markers and life factors it pales into insignificance in terms of relevance to heart disease. Sure, focus on things that will lower your risk and some of them will by proxy lower your cholesterol but lowering your cholesterol per se will not make a significant impact on your risk. It seems that it will take another fresh generation to embrace this idea whilst the current authorities have too much invested in the cholesterol paradigm

Hello Mark, I think you are replying to the "featured content" rather than our actual post. For some reason, Health Unlocked choose to share content (paid perhaps?) within other posts. Not always relevant. I will look into these and find out i I can have them stopped.
