Yes, my parents both take medication for their high cholesterol. Now, they eat even MORE red meat, butter, eggs, and other high-fat and high-cholesterol foods than before! They don't worry because "the medication is taking care of it" or they tell me that the doctor said their cholesterol levels look good! Yeah...they look good because of the medication, not by any doing of their own!

Ultimately, does the CAUSE of their "good" cholesterol levels matter if it is from healthy eating and exercise versus taking a pill?
