Impact of Sugar on cholesterol measures

Thank you.

27% increase in fat in the liver, with only 2% increase of subcutaneous fat in a mere 3 weeks of overfeeding carbs.
Then a 25% decrease in fat in the liver, and a 4% decrease of subcutaneous fat in 3 weeks of low carbing.

Wow.
 
It is not difficult to understand when we compare the marbling of grain fed vs carb fed beef...

I'm going to send this to one of my co-workers. He drinks two cans of coke a day along with a large bag of chips and yes - he has quite the gut. It's like an addiction ...
 
This is why its so worrying that doctors promptly point - towards - you need a low fat diet if you have high cholesterol.
Lots of evidence that its the sugar you need to cut out not the saturated fats.
My cholesterol markers improved dramatically with a high fat including saturated fat diet but very low carbs.

Eating sugar "is" an addiction - everything about the process is designed to have people eat more and more of it. no wonder people end up drinking litres of coke.
