docs rarely have time to review new literature and what they learn in med school is engraved into their brains. PLus Ancel Keys did a hell of a job pushing his ideas.
I think also when a layperson starts telling docs about some hypothesis they read a book on, most docs will immidatly shutdown, i mean, this doc would have been giving the same advice for decades, and cognitively, i doubt they would want to think they were wrong all those years.
I've spent countless hours down this rabbit hole myself and read many books on it. i think mainstream med literature is now catching up to the idea that the lipid hypothesis was flawed and wrong all along.
From what i have read, the most dangerous cholesterol subparticle is lp(a) and statins apparantly dont touch it
