Lowering your ldl might actually make you die early.

A high ldl over the age of 60 is associated with a lower all cause mortality.

And you are kinda right, having a higher income means you can afford more red meat and live longer.

If we're going to be citing a random YouTube video as the same weight as scientific studies, I don't see much point in continuing this conversation

It's a youtube video discussing a Scientific study.

Here is the study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33293274/

A ldl of 140 mg/dL had a overall lower all cause mortality than those with a ldl of 100 or below. Doctors will prescribe a statin at 130.

Good look having a ldl of 140 on a vegan diet. It's not happening.

If you are going to ignore my scientific studies then there is no use continuing this conversation.
