wow, this certainly turned out to be an interesting thread. Thanks guys.
Just to clarify, so do you guys agree that the whole “cooked yolk = oxidized cholesterol” is really so insignificant in terms of free radicals that it’s really a non-issue?
response for katzenjammer:
based on observed health parameters it certainly does not seem important. now if you have some sort of genetic predisposition that makes you more sensitive to such things then different story, but for most healthy adults it seems not to be an issue.
nice to see schwarzy chiming in, i did not have the HDL size study in front of me, so i used the LDL size one instead as it was showing increased HDL concentration. further research has shown that these larger lipoprotein sizes are correlated with each other, that is as LDL size increases, not only does the number of HDL lipoproteins increase, but their average size increases as well. this is directly related to not only cardiovascular health, but most other health parameters too as well as a more anabolic environment. truly the best of both worlds - live long and large.
