I was just told I have high cholesterol so I’m trying to cut back on some of the fatty foods that Bitcoiners swear by that I’ve been trying for a while, mixing in more greens and other balanced foods. 🤷🏻♂️

high cholesterol doesn’t necessarily mean you’re eating too much meat or fat. Cholesterol is a repair molecule, and elevated levels often indicate inflammation, stress, or metabolic dysfunction rather than just dietary fat intake. Cholesterol isn’t the root problem—it’s often a symptom of underlying issues. Instead of just lowering fat intake, focusing on reducing inflammation (cutting out sugar, processed foods, improving sleep, and exercising) is a much better approach.
That is a very good idea. Cutting out fatty, processed foods and sugar is a huge step. Then, reducing dairy, and increasing the quality of the foods you eat with an emphasis on vegetables, whole grains, nuts, seeds, and healthy fats—even if you're not yet ready to go fully plant-based—will make a massive difference in your health and energy levels.
Check this out (there's a high quality .avi version in the archive link that can easily be converted losslessly to .mp4 with FFMpeg). It's a plant-based documentary, but it's not preachy. It's also on Netflix.
Then, I highly recommend watching this:

Full Documentary:
The Game Changers (2018), executive produced by James Cameron, Arnold Schwarzenegger, and Jackie Chan, is a documentary that follows James Wilks, an elite Special Forces trainer and winner of The Ultimate Fighter, as he travels the world exploring the science and benefits of plant-based nutrition.
Directed by Oscar-winner Louie Psihoyos, the film features extraordinary athletes including multiple-time Wimbledon champion Novak Djokovic and 2011 Germany's Strongest Man Patrik Baboumian, alongside special ops soldiers and visionary scientists. Through their stories and scientific evidence, Wilks' journey exposes outdated myths about meat, protein, and strength that affect not only athletic performance but the health of the global population.
