[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Used to use a french press which is great, but I have a genetic predisposition to high cholesterol and using a coffee filter can reduce cholesteral by 15% so I switched to a drip coffee maker. I make 6 cups and just heat up tomorrow's portion in the microwave. Some people may think that's gross but whatever. Works for me.[/quote] Is this a joke? Coffee doesn't contain cholesterol. [/quote] Interesting you say this..I’m 30s, good weight, exercise, don’t eat much sugar, alcohol or animal fat yet have cholesterol in the 190s. So not too high, but something to keep an eye on trend. [b]I also drink 3 cups of French press coffee daily[/b][/quote] https://www.health.harvard.edu/blog/pressed-coffee-going-mainstream-drink-201604299530[/quote] You know, I'm 30s, good weight and exercise and got my first ever high cholesterol reading recently, andnI've been making French press coffee at home since the start of the pandemic. Make I should switch to doing pour overs.[/quote] The article says it could be a problem if you drink 5-8 cups of coffee a day. That’s a lot of coffee![/quote] PP here that also reported this (mid 40s, LDL jumped to almost 120, etc....). I don't drink that much coffee and my LDL still jumped. I have also read that the effect of increasing cholesterol is only about 10% or so, when clearly my increase was higher than that. I don't have any other explanation than the French press unfiltered coffee (well, other than lab error, I suppose). [/quote]
