Anybody know what foods are highest in lauric and myristic acids? Or where
I can find out?

The Serum LDL/HDL Cholesterol Ratio Is Influenced More Favorably by
Exchanging Saturated with Unsaturated Fat Than by Reducing Saturated Fat in
the Diet of Women
...."We conclude that, to influence the LDL/HDL cholesterol ratio, changing
the proportions of dietary fatty acids may be more important than
restricting the percentage of total or saturated fat energy, at least when
derived mainly from lauric and myristic acids, both of which increase HDL
cholesterol. "
