The Doctors Who Say Everything You Know About Cholesterol Is Wrong
Yep, I've believed this for a long time. Our liver has to work harder producing cholesterol if we don't take it in!

Many years ago (late 90s) I worked with a pediatrician who was doing a fellowship at Boston's Children's Hospital. Part of his study was participation in a Cholesterol study. He told me one night that the "fact" that the body's cholesterol level can be attributed to the foods we eat and that high levels were dangerous was the biggest lie ever perpetrated.
Wow, and that was just the beginning of the lie. If he knew that back then, being part of a prestigious research team, then what has happened over the past years? Who was most responsible for perpetuating this lie? Was it on purpose or just plain stupidity?
Things I used to think were crazy, I no longer do. I no longer listen to the "experts". I am the expert on my own body. Isn't that neat? And then it leads to other discoveries - self discovery rather than being taught. Realization that comes from within instead of from an external authority. Wow, it's a brand new life!!
