Low Cholesterol is Associated With Mortality From Stroke, Heart Disease, and Cancer
Men with low cholesterol, <150, had 1.5 times the death rate as those with normal cholesterol.
High cholesterol was not a risk factor.
That is all.

Omega-6/3 ratio, not cholesterol, as the major determinant of coronary heart disease risk.
Massive use of seed oils raises the ratio, so they're implicated as a huge risk factor.

The Japanese redefined "overweight" as a BMI >23, and "obese" as a BMI >25. Much more restrictive than in the West.
Japan isn't as soft as we are.

@Mangan150 Cold exposure may reduce blood serum IGF-1
"These results indicate that basal plasma IGF-I concentrations in pigs living at 4°C were lower than at 20°C."

@BioLayne This is my favorite human study showing insulin-induced adipocyte hypertrophy. If you can, look at the figures. Insulin injection resulted in adipocytes roughly 3X larger than normal. Absolute proof. https://t.co/WAGNJ0Yqcr https://t.co/l51xqdohiN
@Mangan150 @mike_lustgarten Vitamin K2 (common in natto) might also be playing a similar role https://t.co/9zxUxYtscX
With the same pattern often showing up in insulin sensitivity/β-cell function that correlated with osteocalcin https://t.co/NkqGyoToZF

In humans, A rare side effect of high daily doses of #rapamycin and everolimus is mild and reversible hyperglycemia due to inhibition of mTORC1 (not mTORC2) thus decreasing insulin production. The same as in prolonged fasting and keto diet, beneficial

“Low LDL-C and TC levels are linked to [atrial fibrillation] increasing”
“higher levels of LDL-C and TC were recently associated with a lower incidence of AF.”

It's interesting to ask where the myth that casein causes cancer came from (it obviously didn't in the study I posted).
Prior to discovery of essentiality of selenium, Se in rodent diets was only supplied by proteins - casein is selenium-deficient.
