Actually read the article and watch the video - the point is not that you should eat oreos to lower your cholesterol. The point they are making is that cholesterol is not "bad" - your body produces it to help metabolize fats and proteins - it does not need as much if your diet is carb heavy. Test subject eats a carb restrictive ketogenic diet and ate 12 oreos a day for two weeks - total cholesterol went from 384 to 111. He went back to his normal diet for 3 months then started statins (no oreos) and his cholesterol went from 421 to 284 after 6 weeks.
