Quote:
The human body is very inefficient at removing cholesterol from the body... The more cholesterol-laden animal foods we eat, the more our blood vessels become clogged.
I won't quibble about your other arguments, but these two are rubbish.
Your body does not need to remove cholesterol. It needs cholesterol, and high cholesterol levels are not harmful in and of themselves. Cholesterol performs many essential functions in the body and your liver produces much more than you could ever possibly eat.
High cholesterol levels do not clog your arteries. There is NO correlation between high cholesterol levels and heart disease. NONE. This myth is the result of 40 years or so of drug company propaganda designed to sell statin drugs. It's just not true!
Clogged arteries are caused by
oxidation of cholesterol from free radical attacks —
not how much cholesterol there is in your blood.
