If you care to bust his balls, tell him to show you the study that proves this. 150-200-250 on total cholesterol is all the same in terms of cardiovascular events. As it keeps going up the cardiovascular risk increase with a shallow slope, but the risk for cognitive problems (dementia, alzheimer's, ect.)
decreases.
If you want to skew your BP down, then go in dehydrated.
