Is high cholesterol always a bad thing? I say no! Context matters greatly here, as in are you metabolically healthy? Do you know how to assay this? Many people eating an ancestral type diet like carnivore, carnivore-ish, keto, paleo, etc.  (like me!) will see LDL rise, but I don't believe this is a bad thing if we are insulin sensitive/metabolically healthy- this is the importance of context. I discuss the importance of considering context in discussions of LDL, Lp (a), uric acid, and APOE4 in this video. Get ready for a wild ride.  #theremembering  Check out heartandsoil.co if you need more nose to tail nutrition in your life. The JRE show notes are there as well.
