"Several recent publications, however, assert that decreasing bad cholesterols benefits a person's health more than increasing the good cholesterol"

Excuse me?  Could you be so good as to give references for this please?  My study of approx. 300 scientific publications from the past 50 years around this topic would suggest otherwise, see slides 61 to 81 to cut to the chase, but the rest should pique the interest also:

Would be interested in feedback actually - wheat was introduced to the human diet less than 10,000 years ago, and it's been approx. 3000 years before it hit big time (and reasonable genetic  adaptation periods are in the order of 50,000 to 70,000 years). Infairness I'll acknowledge that this article refers to RS wheat fibre alone; nonetheless, this wheat obsession is getting very old.....more focus on healthy clean-burning critical vitamin-enriched fats would be appropriate, based on both the evolutionary history and mounting evidential inference....
