And, it may help best with the worst type of LDL.Īs I’ve touched on before, all LDL cholesterol is bad cholesterol, but large, fluffy LDL may only increase the odds of cardiac events-like heart attacks-31%, whereas small, dense LDL is even worse.įeed people lots of oatmeal and oat bran, and not only does their LDL go down overall, but it specifically brings down the worst of the worst. This group started out with LDLs through the roof, and while cutting out meat may have helped, cutting out meat and adding avocado seemed to help even more. Okay, but what if you eat no meat at all, versus no meat with avocado added? They took people with sky-high cholesterol-up around 300-and switched them to a relatively low-fat vegetarian diet, with about 20% of calories from fat, versus a vegetarian diet with added avocado-bringing it up to more of a typical fat content: 30% of calories from fat. But, add avocado while reducing saturated fat intake, and cholesterol falls-but no more than just reducing saturated fat while adding nothing. Just add avocado to their diet without doing anything else, and cholesterol does not go down. So, for example, if you take people eating a standard North American diet, including animal fats-dairy and poultry are the two greatest contributors of cholesterol-raising saturated fat intake-they may start out with an LDL up around here. When one sees headlines like, “Avocados Could Improve Your Cholesterol,” they’re largely talking about substitution experiments, where avocado is added to the diet by replacing animal fats.

In this talk, Aaron will discuss and dissect several adaptive interfaces and demonstrate how they smartly morph to meet their users’ needs - slow connections, older browsers, narrow screens, and even no screens at all. When we embrace that, our designs, products, and experiences will be all the better for it. A one-size-fits-all approach rarely fits anyone well. Every person is different and we all bring our unique perspectives, experiences, and capabilities to the table. All those years we were the ones restraining it with our desire to create a single monolithic experience. One of the web’s major strengths is its ability to adapt, to travel anywhere and everywhere in service of its users. The truth is, though, nothing was ever certain. It seemed that in an instant, everything changed and nothing was certain any more. After enjoying more than a decade of relative stability in designing for the 'desktop' web, smartphones had to come along and throw a wrench in the works.
