    For most people the level of cholesterol in food has little effect on blood cholesterol.

    I should have said dietary animal fats (including cholesterol) leading to serum cholesterol instead of dietary cholesterol and I didn’t catch the point you were making right away

Several studies have linked plastics with bad cholesterol numbers, and quite a few studies have come out about how much microplastic we have in our bodies now
