Exactly. I don't know that I'd agree that it's all down to genetics...

Butter is still bad,
especially in those with high LDL.

You'd be surprised. Nowadays you practically have to be one to pass med or nursing school. I'd say about 15% of testing is on nutrition.

Please stop spreading debunked myths.
ASCVD event rates were 5 times as high and all‐cause mortality 4 times as high in the highest LDL cholesterol trajectory group compared with the optimal LDL cholesterol exposure group

Please show me the longitudinal studies showing no link.
Objective It is well known that total cholesterol becomes less of a risk factor or not at all for all-cause and cardiovascular (CV) mortality with increasing age, but as little is known as to whether low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), one component of total cholesterol, is associated with mortality in the elderly, we decided to investigate this issue.

Depends...
Butter from commercial dairy is not very good, loaded with hormones, antibiotics, etc.
Butter from grass-fed/finished cows is an amazing health food.
especially in those with high LDL.
Please stop spreading debunked myths.
Cholesterol is not the problem. Inflammation is the problem.

I just want to know if you think a review of studies where they picked what studies to include, and only deals with elderly, is more meaningful than a longitudinal study showing differences in group outcomes over 35 years?

One person making a claim is not debunking.
It's pure nonsense, we have longitudinal studies proving the relationship between LDL and CVD.

So now where do we get butter from cows that arent being supplement fed/dosed with cow-byproducts, hormones? Ghee?? Cuz every farm around me including ours feeds grain but also pet foos kibble by the silo full on the side daily, too!
