Re:Effects of Intermittent Fasting on Health, Aging, and Dis... by cptskippy on Friday December 27, 2019 @11:25AM (#21892186)
I went in for an annual physical and had blood taken. He gave me a call a few days later and it went to voicemail. He left a message saying the results were online and the only thing he saw as problematic was that my LDL was really low. He said being that I was vegetarian, nuts, beer, wine, and hard liquor were probably the best sources.

I didn't call him back to inquire further, and it wasn't mentioned in any subsequent physicals. I don't have a medical background and wasn't aware low cholesterol was even potentially an issue. Until your comment it didn't even occur to me that it served a purpose in the body, I just assumed it wasn't supposed to be there.

Unfortunately the voicemail has long since autodeleted itself.

This was also around 2008 if that matters.
