[[Sylar]]'s LDL and total triglyceride readings are off the chart, to put it mildly (LDL of 190+ and triglycerides of 500+ is the highest level defined). If [[Sylar]] were a normal human, his arteries would be clogged to the point of cardiac failure. |

It just so happens that [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brain#Brain_as_food brains, when eaten], are incredibly high in saturated fat and cholesterol, which directly affects LDL and triglyceride levels in humans. |

So I think the question of whether or not [[Sylar]] actually eats the brains is effectively answered. Revoltingly enough, yes -- he does. |

LDL/Triglyceride Spike = Brains!
Sylar's LDL and total triglyceride readings are off the chart, to put it mildly (LDL of 190+ and triglycerides of 500+ is the highest level defined). If Sylar were a normal human, his arteries would be clogged to the point of cardiac failure.
It just so happens that brains, when eaten, are incredibly high in saturated fat and cholesterol, which directly affects LDL and triglyceride levels in humans.
So I think the question of whether or not Sylar actually eats the brains is effectively answered. Revoltingly enough, yes -- he does.
