Blood panels are the diagnostic that reveals our current physical condition and predicts our future condition, as adults age none are more critical to health than chloresterol, and there are endless well established studies that directly link high cholesterol with dairy and animal protein.This documentary has been thoroughly debunked. A quick google search will bring up a ton of rebuttals. Layne Nortons response is the most thorough and he breaks down every frame of that propaganda piece. A lot of the athletes featured in it are no longer vegans, or never were, which is why they carefully used the moniker “ plant based”.
The number 1 way to drop cholesterol is to shed excess body fat. Most of your cholesterol number is tied to the amount of body fat you walk around with. If you are relatively lean then you likely have nothing to worry about. Some people are also born with a high baseline cholesterol, even if lean. Most of the studies you are referring to are associative in the sense that most fat fucks probably eat McDonald’s and have other unhealthy habits.Blood panels are the diagnostic that reveals our current physical condition and predicts our future condition, as adults age none are more critical to health than chloresterol, and there are endless well established studies that directly link high cholesterol with dairy and animal protein.
Great. That’s what we call an anecdote.I'm in my 70's, 6'2 x 185# which is what I weighed at 21, surf, swim laps, bike and lift most days of the week, don't drink alcohol, and still I have watched my LDL slowly climb over the years. When I changed my diet, eliminating the salmon, organic chicken and beef I used to regularly eat and replaced it with plant proteins, my LDL dropped back to what it was 30 years ago. Another positive has been the marked reduction in chronic overall body inflammation from the injuries incurred during decades of surfing, snowboarding, mtn biking, etc.
Agreed.As it is, have a son who is a hella athlete/surfer who thrives on organic chicken and beef, and a daughter who consistently places high in her age group triathalon races who has been a vegetarian since a teenager.
We all just need to do what works for us respectively.
Also, agreed. The vegan propagandists are the worst offenders at this.The one thing none of us need to introduce into our bodies is hate.

Studies that separate for lifestyle factors show minimal differences between those who eat Meat and those who don’t. There is a also a growing body of research showing how wrong we’ve gotten cholesterol over the last several decades.

Fit as a fiddle, low body fat, was shocked when Dr told me I had high C.Is there a doctor that can comment on this?
I know a lot of people who are nowhere near overweight and have high cholesterol

Which speaks to my original point . . . It’s never the animal based protein in isolation, it’s the entourage effect of numerous lifestyle factors. There is nothing inherently unhealthy about animal based protein. Nobody gets fat from eating beef in isolation- it’s the French fries, potsto chips, milk shakes beer etc that really adds the calories.If you are really worried about the cholesterol you can always opt for fat free dairy, chicken breast, London broil, pork tenderloin, fish etc. If anything, animal based proteins are better for weight control and maintaining muscle mass for athletic purposes because you get a more bioavailable form of protein, and you can get less calories per gram of protein than what you get from other plant based protein sources.Over the past two decades have watched buddies from our gromhood surf posse steadily drop out of surfing as their diet/weight/alcohol intake began catching up with them, and have sadly lost a half dozen good friends to the health related diseases that start picking off the susceptible in their 60' and 70's. Want to be here for the long haul, never too early to do the right things.
