I don't know what her cholesterol numbers are. I prefer to not discuss issues of heath and diet with her. She is a very strong minded person and truly believes that she has done the research and that a vegan whole food diet is the healthiest diet there is. A decade ago she was very active on this site and equally passionate about lchf. This change of mind on her part leaves me puzzled but I know enough not to try to convince her to change. I am trying to keep an open mind about her new way of eating but in my heart of hearts I find it hard to believe that she has made a wise choice.
