Arguing and criticizing each other is not good. Also not good is not understanding the university level education/research on nutritional chemistry and Miscontextualizing the data which see throughout this thread! So let me add that your question is impossible to answer specifically because we don’t have insight to the way your body processes, the things you eat. So one person‘s genetics might not need them to change their diet, but another person‘s genetics might also add into it, their age, their activity level And their body metabolism. So wisdom indicates that changing your diet to a heart, healthy diet would be wise, wisest and consulting your doctors and getting the necessary test to understand how your body metabolizes fats is going to be important. I am very lucky because I knew my family had heart disease , and we all ate fresh food and kept process food to a minimum I exercise took nutritional chemistry in college and at 67 I found out I inherited vascular coronary artery disease. Which means plaque buildup is an issue. Most people don’t understand that cholesterol in food doesn’t directly deposit cholesterol in your body. You have to take apart the cholesterol in the food and reconstitute for your bodies unique way of making cholesterol. There’s like a signature so actually people give up things like eggs in favor of simple, bad lipids which actually make their own signature cholesterol easier in other words they eat the essential elements that make up cholesterol And bypass the work the body needs to do to break cholesterol down in order to reconstitute it so they’re doing more damage and they don’t understand. I am very lucky that I haven’t died like my cousins in their 60s my dad‘s first heart attack in his 50s and he swam three times a week . I was very lucky. I learned to take a test called LP little a. LPa is a test that tells you if you inherit the genetic vascular disease where your arteries build up plaque. I inherited it unfortunately. So I have to be very careful and I have to have more tests. So if you really want the answer to your question if you seriously want the answer to your question, you have to go take the tests and the results of the test are going to tell you if you have to change your diet. You didn’t tell us what your diet is so you left out the most important part of the conversation. How are we supposed to know if you should change your diet if you don’t tell us about the intricacies of your body health health history, family condition and what you eat every day. And let’s not leave out exercise that’s probably the most important thing that I observe now they have a variety of medicines and they don’t stay off plaque buildup necessarily. My dad took statins for 25 years and he kept having plaque buildup and needing bypass surgeries , but his cholesterol was 169 so it doesn’t help if you have coronary artery disease you have to deal with plaque not building up in your arteries and those are a different series of test just having a cholesterol test. I myself am now on LEVQIO and that has dropped my cholesterol significantly , but it also raised my LPa while I wait for the dust to settle and the plaque to leave my arteries through my bloodstream. I also don’t suffer fools lightly, but most people don’t understand what they don’t know unless they’ve had the education that I saw out early so I believe that before I criticize anyone, I have to offer them information that I have acquired by having a university education on the matter. Although it was a long time ago and medicine has improved and I’m not always current but I know the process of how the body processes things. I hope that helps and good luck.
