- The biggest influence on blood cholesterol level is the mix of fats and carbohydrates in your diet—not the amount of cholesterol you eat from food.
- Although it remains important to limit the amount of cholesterol you eat, especially if you have diabetes, for most people dietary cholesterol is not as problematic as once believed.
- sizzle 5y agoWhat’s up with the conflicting info on carbohydrates? Should I skip the bowl of oatmeal every morning?
- bruce343434 5y agoThis seems to be a thing for pretty much every food/nutritional category. I've decided for myself to just "ignore" the science since the definition of "healthy" seems to change so often. Instead I try to use common sense for picking my meals.
- bongoman37 5y agoFood science is highly politicised because of the massive amounts of lobbying involved. If you have the time and expertise, you should look at the actual paper, correlate it with things like sample size, age of participants, funders biases and then come up with your own conclusions. Also, research on oneself is great, vary something, measure whether it makes a positive difference, if yes, do more of it, if not, try something else. Lots of 'scientific' nutrition advice is outright wrong and harmful.
- shlant 5y agoany nutrition advice that makes sweeping statements about entire macronutrients (protein/fat/carbohydrates) should be ignored and is mostly used to sell fad diets. "Carbohydrates" could be HFCS or leafy greens. "Fats" could be shortening or avocado. The nutrition of the individual food is much more important than the macronutrients.
