Is the word Cholesterol in your vocabulary?
or coronary??

No. I don't think that the fat we eat ends up in our blood veins. I think that's is absurd. Nothing else has that effect - we don't have chunks of fish or carrots clogging up our hearts.

I think that equating cholesterol to cardiovascular disease is also absurd. Cholesterol is necessary and it works to repair tears in the veins. Of course lots of people with cardiovascular problems have high cholesterol, because it's working to repair them. Saying that cholesterol causes heart disease is like saying that bleeding causes cuts.

Well, I was just giving you the needle. I didnt mean for you to take it so serious. Maybe cut back on the coffee ;).

BTW, I wasnt equating them or linking them or saying one causes the other...

That's what fine wine is for.

It thins out the fat and flushes it out of your body and veins. If you can deglaze a frying pan with wine, you can also "deglaze" your body with a nice red wine.

At least that's the excuse I use.
