I hate to gloat, but....:)

Ok, I am trying hard not to rub it in.  I am trying not to smile, but I can't help it.  I hate to gloat, but.....

I TOLD YOU SO!!!!

The US government is about to withdraw long standing warning about cholesterol.  Hello!  Pass me the fried chicken.......
Infact in recognition of this, I think I am going to go get some fried chicken......

Yup, I took a break for chicken.

from the washington post:

The nation’s top nutrition advisory panel has decided to drop its caution about eating cholesterol-laden food, a move that could undo almost 40 years of government warnings about its consumption.

The group’s finding that cholesterol in the diet need no longer be considered a “nutrient of concern” stands in contrast to the committee’s findings five years ago, the last time it convened. During those proceedings, as in previous years, the panel deemed the issue of excess cholesterol in the American diet a public health concern.

The finding follows an evolution of thinking among many nutritionists who now believe that, for healthy adults, eating foods high in cholesterol may not significantly affect the level of cholesterol in the blood or increase the risk of heart disease.

Yes my friends, all of you owe me an apology.  For a decade now I have had to fight with you about cholesterol and its role.  I who said moderation is the key, and portion control.  However having a doctor tell me about my cholesterol, was pure crap.  Never trust a medical solution which comes with a popular drug. Remember the days when we use to have ulcers, ahhh.......

Now this doesn't mean you should try to live healthy, it just means I am just as reliable an expert as the medical people who talk about diets.   

Donuts anyone?
