The cholesterol myths.
People with high cholesterol live the longest. This statement seems so incredible that it takes a long time to clear one´s brainwashed mind to fully understand its importance. Yet the fact that people with high cholesterol live the longest emerges clearly from many scientific papers.

Blood cholesterol levels between 200 and 240 mg/dl are normal. These levels have always been normal. In older women, serum cholesterol levels greatly above these numbers are also quite normal, and in fact they have been shown to be associated with longevity. Since 1984, however, in the United States and other parts of the western world, these normal numbers have been treated as if they were an indication of a disease in progress or a potential for disease in the future.

As a result of some of this misinformation, which was purposefully planted by the leadership of the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute (NHLBI) in 1984, many hundreds of thousands of people are treated with expensive medications to prevent the development of a non-existent illness. If the medications were only expensive and not life threatening, their use could no doubt be shrugged off as a harmless snake oil pharmaceutical scam; but, in fact, these are thoroughly dangerous medications for both physical and emotional reasons—for physical reasons because their use can lead to serious untreatable diseases such as liver cancer, and for emotional reasons because their use perpetuates the myth that cholesterol is dangerous and evil.

It's the oxidized cholesterol that clogs up your arteries. Oxidized cholesterol is found in powdered milk and powdered eggs. Powdered milk is added to 1% and 2% milk.

Oatmeal is proven to lower cholesterol, but there are 2 kinds of cholesterol. One can clog up your cardio vascular system, the other can actually help to fight the effects of bad cholesterol. So, obviously, you would want to eat something that doesn't just lower all cholesteral. You would want to eat a food that raises good cholesterol levels, so you can fight the bad. A great source of this good cholesterol is found in fish. Of course, you don't want to deep fry it, or pan fry it. I would recommend sprinkling it with garlic pepper or lemon pepper seasoning and then baking or broiling it. It will taste delicious, and will fight the bad cholesterol.
