Ok but I also know you can limit your eaten cholesterol a great deal and your body can still produce high levels. Depends who you are but I agree generally that one should avoid saturated fats and a lot of red meat but, even if you do, there's no guarantee your cholesterol levels with go down anywhere near what they will with medication IMO and that of many others. 🙂

True. Mine is inherited and both of my kids have abnormal cholesterol levels, so it's not just diet. My diet is plant based, I'm at a good weight and exercise daily, and it still takes 3 drugs to get the cholesterol numbers down and to where I'm told over time, it will start to reverse what my body has done for the past 68 years. I've researched this for years: diet can lower your cholesterol numbers by around 20% at most. Your mileage may vary
