If someone is worried about saturated fat content of their diet they can always do calcium imaging of their arteries - it’s inexpensive and gives a actual score of risk. As far as I’ve read in the literature serum cholesterol is not a danger, only if it’s damaged - which can be measured by several proxies (tg/hdl ratio, fasting insulin) or measured directly through diffusion (though that is expensive).

Yeah, that’s great! I hope you see improvements.
