PSA and Just FYI, the study was done on a particular small group of Lean Mass Hyperresponders on ketogenic diets, who were given exogenous beta hydroxybutyrate to maintain ketosis despite the extra glucose/cookie ingestion.

However, there seems to be a reproducible and clear mortality benefit to the use of statins in certain patient populations for secondary prevention.
Anyone that's been involved with medicine should know that cholesterol is vital in making testosterone and other hormones. There is no such thing as bad cholesterol. Without it you are dead, period.
FFS. Did I say cholesterol was bad? No. I said, in certain patients statin therapy reduces your risk of death…significantly. It gets so dang tribal here. Maybe borderline personality disorder is a more accurate description. In real life, many things (especially medicine) are not all bad or all good. We just have to use them properly.
