RE: Early stage atherosclerosis may be entirely reversible according to Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai study
Cholesterol is a required nutrient by the body, research that. Also Its not easy to be strict on your diet, but a fast for those who can stand it will cure you. Its that easy. Just look into it, dont take from me.
Also What’s responsible for the LDL increase, EPA or DHA (or both)?
By reviewing all the studies that have used EPA or DHA in isolation, researchers at Emory University School of Medicine were recently able to answer this question.[4,5] Here’s what they found:
DHA increases LDL cholesterol by up to 16%
EPA has no effect on LDL or slightly decreases LDL
as expected, both EPA and DHA significantly decrease triglycerides (by 15.6% and 22.4%, respectively)
Dont give your entire life to the medical industry, you can be free, with enough effort. God made you to heal yourself.
Of course cholesterol is required and the body makes it on it's own. There is no evidence that we are required to consume cholesterol.
This is something I wasn't aware of but it does explain something. My own explanation was fish oil has saturated fat which obviously would raise cholesterol to some degree but it didn't explain why it would raise it so much from so little. DHA increasing LDL by 16% is very significant.
Reference
The body still requires some, but yes it produces most of the cholesterol we need. Just google human nutrient requirements.
