1:50 Dietary cholesterol does not have a significant impact on serum cholesterol. 
2:45 Carbohydrates increase LDL and total cholesterol and insulin.
3:30 Cholesterol has powerful benefits. 
5:00 Low cholesterol diets can increase endogenous production of cholesterol and the expression of LDL receptors. 
5:40 High cholesterol diet expresses fewer LDL receptors. 
8:00 Eggs and meat consumption has a minimal impact on serum cholesterol. 
8:53 Increased LDL cholesterol may be from of increased fat metabolism.
10:30 Type 2 diabetes and insulin resistance modifies LDL particles to be smaller and denser and more likely to become atherogenic. 
13:50 Diabetes can be a side effect of Statin drugs.
14:20 Cholesterol is used to make bile.
16:20 A diet rich in seed oils may foster the modification of LDL cholesterol that can make the atherogenic.
17:45 LDL cholesterol has antiviral properties.
19:30 Insulin resistance and physical inactivity increase triglyceride production, leading to the formation of fats in the liver and elevated triglycerides and elevated vLDL cholesterol.
