Strict lipid lowering diets are *disgusting* and at best you can hope for a
13% reduction in cholesterol.
Do the "me" test. Would you eat an unpalatable diet, more importantly would
you *stick* to an unpalatable diet, when a pill would be better. Costs the
NHS more I know, but do you want efficacy or misery?
