The extent of most people’s understanding of cholesterol is that it’s the demon that clogs arteries and leads to heart disease, and the magic number to strive for is 200.

If you’ve been a reader of mine even for a short while, you probably remember me talking about the dangers of sugar, especially in the toxic form of high fructose corn syrup. Sugar is a driving force behind a whole slew of diseases and conditions including diabetes, insulin resistance, cancer, heart disease, obesity, dementia, immune dysfunction and chronic inflammation, to name a few.
