Guest guest Posted September 8, 2004 Report Share Posted September 8, 2004 I've been reading about some of the benefits of good cholestrols like those found in whole butter. They free the body of free radicals and coat the digestive system. I guess the short and medium length cholestrol chains are good for the body where the very long chains are harmful. Like those found in meats as well as the uric acid and toxins in meat. I'm not trying to convert anyone to vegetarianism but I personally think it's a good idea.

Step off the deep end. <http://www.thincs.org/> and scroll down to the article by Uffe Ravnskov. This is not an article I will be sharing with my Western A & P professor. While we're at it, would anyone care to compare cholesterol, a building block of steroid hormones, with something, anything, of Asian medical theory?

Guest guest Posted September 8, 2004 Report Share Posted September 8, 2004 Actually, the idea that any cholesterol is bad for you is a myth, and certainly not borne out by the research. Low cholesterol diets have no effect on atherosclerosis or incidence of heart disease. It is a useful myth for the manufacturers of statin drugs, however. Avery L.

Guest guest Posted September 9, 2004 Report Share Posted September 9, 2004 Here are a few web sites regarding cholesterol and various studies that are pretty enlightening.
