Cholesterol, saturated fats and your genes

Cholesterol is neither a hero nor a villain; it is essential. All cell membranes, all steroid hormones, vitamin D, bile, and the brain itself depend on it. A narrative that simply classifies it as "bad" ignores biological reality. Saturated fat is neither a villain nor a hero in the abstract. It makes up cell membranes, helps in hormone production, and facilitates the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins. However, context determines its effects, and the old, general message only told part of the story. The goal is not to label saturated fat as a friend or an enemy.
