If you are saying that you too were on a carnivore diet long term (5+ years) and very possibly experienced "the worst possible outcome" related to cholesterol levels, you would be the first person to report as such. Perhaps you would like to publish the anecdote in detail somewhere (including just exactly what you ate, as "a high cholesterol diet" is imprecise enough to mean many things)?
