Russ Lyons points me to this recent magazine article by Martijn Katan and a research article, “Diet and Serum Cholesterol: Do zero correlations negate the relationship?” by David Jacobs, Joseph Anderson, and Henry Blackburn, and this video by Michael Greger.
This is interesting stuff, especially as the ultimate truth is still very unknown. It’s good to have stories like this where there is still the fog of uncertainty and no unambiguous good guys and bad guys.
