[QUOTE="Oldvatr, post: 2251779, member: 196898"] There was a study two Two years ago there was a study done in an Australian hospital that analysed post mortems following various CV suspected deaths, and the main finding was that the majority of them had low or medium cholesterol levels, and that the ones with high TC were also associated strongly with smoking or alcoholism. This study was suppressed by the authorities who instigated court procedings shortly after it was published. I did provide a link in a thread here at the time but it was fairly swiftly de-activated by Error 404. Edit to ammend this para:- Seems that more recent analysis has shown that post mortem analysis of bloods gives lowered cholesterol readings and this was not taken into account by the researchers It is also dependant on the make and type of analyser machine used, and the reagents used in them which introduce more errors. I may be wrong in this, but wasn't there a very public trial that this was allowed to be raised in a defence plea that led to the trial folding and exoneration for the plaintiff. Maybe Australia or South Africa.? Edit to add: I cannot find the video I remember gleaning this nugget from,, so my memory is not a good source for info. Edit to add [/QUOTE]
