I would like to see more than the summary. Is there a way to get access? I’m interested because I was on a low-carb high-fat diet where I ate 3 eggs a day – that was until I got a blood test that showed very high cholesterol. Now I’ve cut dietary cholesterol and I’m on statins. It’s much harder to maintain weight loss this way.

Sci-hub is your friend. https://sci-hub.se/https://doi.org/10.1016/j.amjmed.2020.05.046 https://sci-hub.se/https://doi.org/10.1016/j.amjmed.2020.05.... The journal publishers are always getting Sci-hub's internet access cut off, so you have to search for where they are served from at any moment. Every time they are cut off, they find another way back on, and you have to find them again. The journal publishers are about as evil as any corporation not actively killing people can be. They take huge "page fees" from scientists to publish papers, huge subscriptions from academic libraries, and don't pay their editors or their reviewers. Their profit margin is 40% and rising. Probably nothing can be done about them without legislation. * * * On your other remarks: Dietary cholesterol has absolutely nothing to do with heart disease. Your liver makes the cholesterol your body needs. No one has ever been able to demonstrate any benefit to statins for people who have not had a heart attack, despite trying really hard for 30+ years. But statins interfere with your liver producing the cholesterol your body needs. Statins have bad side effects that they don't like to talk about, particularly muscle damage. The best things you could do is eliminate sugar, and increase exercise. Saturated fat is good for you, and helps reduce appetite. Sugar and gluten are appetite stimulants.

You may be a lean mass hyperresponder - check out Dave Feldman's work on the topic at https://cholesterolcode.com/ https://cholesterolcode.com/. Doctors can be pretty jumpy about cholesterol numbers and I'd hate to see you take advice which may be good for the general population but bad for you at face value.
