In April 2017, he published a re-analysis of the MN Coronary Experiment. Here's the link to the study: http://www.bmj.com/content/353/bmj.i1246 This was a rare dietary study, in that it was a randomized clinical trial. They controlled the diet of 9423 men and women nursing home and mental hospital patients. Corn oil and polyunsaturated margarine was substituted for the current standards of animal fat. Study groups did indeed have 13.8% lower cholesterol. Random probability less than 1 in 1000. However, those in that same study group with lower cholesterol were at 22% higher risk of dying, mostly from heart attack and stroke. Random probability also less than 1 in 1000.
