Do you get regular cholesterol tests? I imagine if done in a certain way, with lean meat (high protein, low carb, low-ish fat diet), it could work OK. Vegan can also be healthy, if done properly. I’ve been vegan for about 5 years (switched because my cholesterol was a biy high), and have only noticed positive effects.
or also Shawn Baker MD on Youtube. I literally couldn’t believe this stuff either but it’s worth having a look into. I’m not saying one or the other is better it entirely depends on the person and body type etc…
It appears the doctor that co-wrote that book was a quack or grifter that associated himself with other grifters like Dr Oz and The Doctors, and advocated for “alternate health practices” that have no evidence of being helpful (and that sound absurd): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephen_Sinatra
If I understand it correctly, it says people with total cholesterol above reference levels have a 27% increase in risk of cardiovascular mortality, people with high LDL have a 21% increase, and people with high HDL have 40% decrease in risk.

yes I just got a test done, yes it’s high but it’s the ratio that matters (or so I’m told)

For stuff like this, I usually try to find the most recent meta-analysis that looks reputable. For example: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9316578/
