P.S. Re: Melisa's 216 value. Here are some total cholesterol values I
had  between '95 and '98

95' 178, '96 132, 167, 142, 188, '97 172, 202, 136, 209, 148, '98 219,
210, 175, 194, 178

'95 178 1 value only
'96 157  avg
'97 173  avg
'98 195  avg

My 219 value in '98 doesn't concern me. I see the average did increase
slightly as I began to eat more raw beef, including more marrow and some
lamb fat compared to the previous fatty fish. If you believe the "values
are higher because old bad fats are being flushed out", maybe that
accounts for the higher values? Who knows. the 188 value in '96 was the
day after eating 1 doz egg yolks. the 219 value in '98 was 1and 1/2 hr
after eating 4 TBS honey on an empty stomach.

My triglycerides:

'95 134 1 value
'96  71 avg of 3
'97  41 avg of 2 values
'98  69 avg of 2 values

Good values, I'd say. Lately I've increased eating some raw lamb fat
(not soft) and fatty beef, and noticed some indigestion. It doesn't
taste as delicious as marrow, and I'm trying to get Coleman to ship some
marrow into NYC.

My best, Ellie
