I recently posted a thread appreciating the hope and faith of people here. This is another point to appreciate. Not everything health related that is posted here is legit, but there is a lot of sound data.
Most health advice has two main objectives: lower your impact on the lives of the ruling class (bugs to replace beef, etc), and for the patient to reach a peaceful death by 80. If those are not your goals, the data in studies can still be useful, just throw out the conclusions. And read carefully. Most of the conclusions in studies are deceptively worded so they are technically true, but not functionally true.
Personal anecdote: on a recent doctor visit, I was advised to decline an out of pocket procedure that would radically improve my quality of life because, "there's no point in that type of procedure at your age. You'll get a few good years and then age will break your body down anyway." I don't want to dox myself, but let's just say that I don't even have any wrinkles. Yet the physician's advice was to embrace death and decline a procedure I can afford out of my checking account.
Absolute conclusion of the cholesterol study just unearthed is a 1.8% health factor which is under the risk factor for a statin. It should have never even be released as necessary and was just a big farm of grab for a silent pill they feel everyone can take safely while it causes problems elsewhere. They're just connecting Alzheimer's and dementia to statins. So when will they be pulled?

It's a death cult, that's for sure.
