    The brainwashing was so successful even I find myself still being impacted by it. Watching 50-70 years friends dying weekly just because of diet is a hard pill to swallow.

    Coconut oil is getting bad press.

    It may be that coconut oil and other saturated fats are healthy in certain amounts or proportions to other fats, and if so, this might vary among different people/genotypes...

    Thanks to the (continuing) demonization >:) of saturated fats over the last several decades and the glacial pace of change, research in this and many other areas of interest to us ketophiles remains in woefully short supply. :/

    Meanwhile in Canada, they're thinking of putting fat warning labels on whole milk and cheese. Crazy innit?

    Here's a reply to the AHA from High Intensity Health. (He recommends an advanced (NMR) lipoprotein study to see how your HF is affecting your lipids.)

    Last month running the NMR gave me Peace of mind over 300+ total cholesterol. I ordered it from lifeextension while on sale for $75.

    @GaleHawkins - Thanks for the tip! Does LE have monthly specials, or do you have to sign up for emails?

    Stephen Phinney is #1 in my book, with no close competition (in spite of all the genuine experts out there).

    He lands at the top of every category even my drinking self can imagine. He's not only knowledgeable and articulate, but he's refreshingly open-minded and humble - he studiously avoids forcing individuals into boxes (by overgeneralizing principles) and views even his own research "with utmost skepticism."

    And he's funny!

    Another guy I like is Timothy Noakes, because of him being able to admit he was wrong for so many years and trying to help folks un-learn all he espoused for so long.

    Pretty awesome, thanks. And I hate the word "awesome," so it's REALLY GOOD.

    You?

    Ha, no complaints, keto still working.

    Can't say I'm a huge fan of this aging thing, though it's definitely better to be slimmer and less sweet than if I were still doing the death march to the low-fat drummer!

    Seriously, getting old sucks. Some of the time.
