HDL is absolutely the key. I have doubled my HDL, from 22 to 41 by banning trans fats from my diet. Harry

I would refer you to my rule #1. I nearly tripled my HDL with excercize. I don't "ban" anything from my diet. My body pretty much tells me what it wants (or sometimes craves). When I cook, I do seek to use healthy alternatives, when taste does not appreciably suffer.
