If I didn’t
knew so in any way I suspected that Big Pharma created the nice story about bad and good
cholesterol and used this story to yield extremely high profits. And that the
story is not adequate does not surprise me:
Researchers on Thursday challenged a tenet
of modern medicine that higher levels of "good" cholesterol
automatically boost cardiovascular health.
In a study published in The Lancet, investigators
said they found no evidence to back the belief that higher levels of
high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol routinely reduce the risk of a heart
attack.
High concentrations of HDL are one of the
big markers for blood tests.
Who knows
how many other bogus stories are out there?
