Way back in 2008, when I created the videos you can see below, people still feared cholesterol and saturated fat. Can you imagine such a thing?! Blaming cholesterol for heart disease is like blaming a firefighter for the fire she’s working hard to put out!
“Cholesterol Comeback” is a Star Wars-themed blast of info, set to a backdrop of my brother’s funky music. Disclaimer: It’s 2021 and I’ve just rewatched these videos. Oh wow, I’d change a lot about them if I had the time. Though they’re not up to my current standards aesthetically, I still stand by the information!
