Why do you say "protection"?dime wrote: Here are the blood levels, in my opinion they prove quite well that there's no or low protection from too much cholesterol from diet (in rabbits at least..)
If it were any other nutrient, you wouldnt say that.
All serum nutrients vary within certain margins, which is sometimes 900% (some amino acids).
So, why should the body stop taking in cholesterol when more is supplied by diet?
To match our thinking about cholesterol?
What it proves, is that the body will increase cholesterol when more is supplied.
It does not prove that cholesterol is absorbed 'beyond what the body deems healthy'.
What is a healthy cholesterol level???
