I should just add, generally, the "bad" cholesterol is actually damaged cholesterol.

glycated and oxidized LDL doesn't get absorbed by the liver, and thus can be seen as spike in LDL levels. High LDL isn't bad for you, Damaged LDL is bad for you.

Thankfully you don't have to spend a bunch of money to centrifuge the LDL sample, you can just check your TG/HDL ratio to see if your insulin sensitive, and if you are, the LDL isn't damaged (to a high degree of correlative probability)

And fat burning people are using their cholesterol quickly, with it transporting fat to where it is being used. Damaged cholesterol gets damaged by being in circulation too long
