Straight up didn’t know this, but I don’t and have never drank coffee and am the only man in my family without cholesterol issues.

MonkderVierte@lemmy.zip 10 hours agoCafestol is the main contributor of cardiovascular disease due to coffee (increases cholesterol). Get filtered coffee, or even better, black/mate tea, Matcha/green tea, Guarana or Guyausa (most of which have the reverse effect on cholesterol btw).
- cmbabul@slrpnk.net 10 hours ago- MonkderVierte@lemmy.zip 9 hours ago- Yeah, genetically predisposed here, will likely die of a stroke sometime. Though green (and other) tea, Guarana and Guyausa have lots of cholesterine reducers. 
 
- waitmarks@lemmy.world 10 hours ago- Do you have a source on that? - MonkderVierte@lemmy.zip 10 hours ago- waitmarks@lemmy.world 10 hours ago- So it sounds like cafestol is the most potent cholesterol synthesis agonists, but that it is in such small amounts in the beans that using a paper filter essentially eliminates it entirely. Even without a paper filter, its low enough that the studies show that you would need to drink more than 4 cups a day of unfiltered coffee for it to start having any sort of impact. - MonkderVierte@lemmy.zip 9 hours ago- Ok, fair point.
