Spanky this crossed my mind also but did you offset your EPO with fish oil? Epo on its own is pro inflammatory and inflammation raises bad cholesterol too. Infact I'm going to get my C reactive protein levels checked too to see if they are elevated.
I got this book out twice and having read it I swore id consume coconut oil for the rest of my life

Coconut oil might be inflammatory for certain blood types
