Sorry if this has been posted before, I did search, but didn't immediately find it. Yet I think the news is rather huge.
I'm also surprised it took me 3 months before I saw a mention of it. Short is: what many of us have been saying about statins (and that's why this is linked in the PN section) and cholesterol now seems to become "mainstream".
If you have PN and are using statins, please discuss this article with your doc.

Cleveland Clinic cardiologist Dr. Steven Nissen told USA Today: "It's the right decision. We got the dietary guidelines wrong. They've been wrong for decades.
