    I wonder if it's true? I mean, it's on the internet so it's 50/50. I've already cut out sugar years ago.

      Editing … From what I know most cases of dementia have the same cause as cardiovascular disease. The clogging of your arteries due to fat and cholesterol also happens in the brain vessels. Diabetes type 2 is a result of fat being stored in the muscle which prevents glucose from entering the cells. All these common diseases actually have the same lifestyle cause. You can kind of see them as the same disease just different outcomes. Too much fat and cholesterol floating around in your body will slowly gunk up your system over the years. Think about that the next time you have cheese on top of a big mac.

      Editing … Looks pretty clear to me, all the old studies on cholesterol were flawed and new ones are showing dietary cholesterol isn't the issue.

      Editing … No. This is a complicated subject. New does not always = better. In the case of those cholesterol studies they used problemattic methods that are misleading (probably even intentionally so). Lots of loby power going on in this area. I'm always happy to admit when I'm wrong but this has nothing to do with my ego. Those studies are bogus. Lots of flawed studies make headlines and and are interpreted in very strange and incorrect ways leading people to beleive very strange things that have nothing to do with reality.

      Editing … We have had this same exact discussion before, I had provided many explanations and evidence to back it up but you never engaged with it. So I cannot see this discussion going anywhere. What do you want me to say? yes cholesterol is fantastic for you and your heart health and you can eat as much of it as you want because it will only make you stronger! all research from 1900 to now about cholesterol are wrong because some new studies came out with questionable methods and motives and now we know the truth. Bacon and eggs are healthy for you and in other news chocolate has polyphenols so chocolate must be good for you too and wine is also healthy and why we think that is not because of the "sick quitters effect" at all or headlines on magazine articles. It's true science.

      Editing … Nope. But you can admit that cholesterol alone has been proven in recent studies to have no effect of CVD, and it could well be fatty acids instead of cholesterol that gave the old results. Surely finding the truth is the most important thing right? It's more important than either of us being right, because then we have the answer to all of our debates and we can all be a little healthier.

      Editing … It must be hard to make that decision. I'm all for euthanasia or assisted suicide or whatever the law calls it too, it's been on the news a lot lately. It would be hard with dementia patients though, they'd have to make up their mind early on. My gran who died last year eventually didn't know who any of us were and she thought the care home she had to stay in was a caravan.
