Hi Luke,
I appreciate your recommendation. Thankyou.
My life experience, and experimenting with different WOE has confirmed, for me, that sat. fat does, indeed raise my cholesterol.
I would love to eat more butter and prime rib, but I do so only occasionally, as I know what the results will be.
Everyone is different. Maybe it's genetic. My dad, may he rest in peace, passed due to atherosclerosis at age 64.
Maybe, for some people, high fat in the absence of carbs is actually beneficial (I have read some posts on this forum where triglicerides actually went down on Atkins, though some have gone up.) I just have to be careful, that's all.
And besides, less fat = fewer calories - so that's not so bad!
