Guest guest Posted November 24, 2008 Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 Agreeing with Duncan. My reading and research has run across this several times. My own cholesterol happens to be great even after using CO, although not using it enough yet I don¹t think. However, I wouldn¹t get overly concerned about high cholesterol numbers if I did have them. I do view CO as a pretty much miracle food so far! I use it for everything. I only keep the Olive oil on hand for dh and I like the taste of sesame added for flavor in smaller quantities on occasion.
