Prejudice and anti-fat propaganda run deep! I do enjoy getting a laugh, sometimes a nervous one, from physicians when they ask me what I've done to improve my health and serum cholesterol levels and I respond "by introducing about 5-10 times the recommended daily fat intake, with lots of saturated and animal fats."

I believe, experienced and know how nutrition might help, and I prefer keeping a healthy nutrition over using drugs. But I am vegan and I certainly would prefer alternative strategies than eating meat and other animal derivatives.
