If they don’t let us fatties die off, how we ever gonna clean up the gene pool?
The science IS good on this folks. It is very well estalished that lowering LDL cholesterol will lower your risk of heart attack and stroke. The studies, though are all on adults. I’ve seen lots of obese kids burn it off after puberty in their teens. I really don’t know if high cholesterol in childhood necessarily carries into adulthood with the exception of inherited high cholesterol diseases. I do know that with more and more kids staying obese we are seeing an explosion of diabetes which will be devastating if we can’t convince parents not to let their kids get fat.
