Care to back this up with some research?
You appear to be misinformed as to the contribution dietary cholesterol makes to your blood lipids.
My cholesterol was high enough to medicate when I was 33 years old. I brought it DOWN on the Atkins diet, eating butter, eggs and red meat daily. It had been too high on my former low-fat, "whole-grains with everything" diet. It was then I realized I had much to learn about diet.
All I asked for was some research from that supp guy. So far, no dice.
How do you manage your cholesterol, runner? You're the one who brought up gifted genetics. I had terrible genetics for cholesterol.
How much fructose do you eat?

The reason I ask is because of how Ancel Keyes' lipid hypothesis was derived. Recall in his "seven countries" study, he proposed that in countries where saturated fat intake was high, so was the incidence of heart disease. He noted an interesting correlation, but never bothered to complete his multiple regression analysis: countries where saturated fat consumption was high also had high sucrose consumption. He ran his regression holding sucrose constant, but never ran the reverse. His incomplete analysis made him a famous and wealthy scientist, but did the world a great deal of harm.
This is long, and for that I apologize, but believe me it's worth it.
I've watched it three times. Not only did it answer a longstanding question for me (why some low fat and some low carb diets seem to reduce blood lipids and obesity), it forced me to completely rethink the role of insulin.
Robert H. Lustig, MD, UCSF Professor of Pediatrics in the Division of Endocrinology, explores the damage caused by sugary foods. He argues that fructose (too much) and fiber (not enough) appear to be cornerstones of the obesity epidemic through their effects on insulin.
