It may surprise many but I actually agree with GT in large part on what he says about cholesterol. Problem with that part of GCBC was that he wasn't really saying anything new. My first cholesterol test was back in the days when just total cholesterol was your basic test. Mine was slightly high - only moderately overweight at 20 or so years of age. A few years later the LDL/HDL breakdown became more the norm and my HDL was high. Now we all know the progression with particle numbers, sizes, etc that has developed over the years and with it less concern over some types, more over others.
So there's lots of moaning going on over at GT's blog and around the LC web over Taubes' appearance on the Dr. Oz TV show 3/7/12. I'm no fan of Dr. Oz. I don't watch any of that sort of TV on anything other than a passing basis in doc/dental waiting rooms and such I did watch the YouTube videos of Dr. Oz with GT on Larry King back in 2007 (is there a part III?) and I'm well aware of Oz's relationship with Oprah. I'm especially not fond of Dr. Oz after reading this post over at Yoni Freedhoff's Weighty Matters blog.
