Here’s the conclusion, to tempt you to read the entire article:
The concept that LDL is “bad cholesterol” is a simplistic and
scientifically untenable hypothesis.
The inordinate focus on cholesterol, a perfectly natural
substance that performs many crucial functions in the body, has
taken and continues to take valuable resources and attention away
from factors more closely related to heart disease.
Independent-thinking practitioners must look at the readily
available evidence for themselves, instead of relying on the
continual stream of anticholesterol propaganda emanating from
“health authorities.” By doing so, they will quickly realize that the
LDL hypothesis is aggressively promoted for reasons other than
public health.
