Here's an idea of how friggin BAD winny is on your cholesterol. This study used a dose of 6...that's right SIX mg's of winny/day for 14 days. HDL(good cholesterol) was reduced an average of 49%. LDL(the bad stuff) increased by an average of 124%. That's 6mg/day for a 2 week cycle............DAMN!
Here's the reference. I'm no longer a fan of Winny after reveiwing some recent lipid studies. I'll dig up some more when I get a chance.
