Woo gets in a friendly back and forth with Dave here. Some of Woo's position reminds me of the approach Ken is taking. I think diabetes/insulin resistance is the more important target, it's more obvious what to do about that. Fine-tuning cholesterol is a different thing--Dave shows you can manipulate it short-term. But if you were to try manipulating cholesterol long term by overeating fat--probably both your lipids and your insulin and glucose levels would be disappointing. I wouldn't be willing to sacrifice much of anything in the way of avoiding pathological insulin resistance and diabetes for the sake of a better lipid profile, but like Woo says, it's not like it has to be one or the other. Even in the Quebec study, having low insulin very greatly reduced the risk of a high ldl particle count, but it didn't wipe it out.
