Intro/Outro Song: Sedução Momentânea by Roulet:
freemusicarchiv...
My total cholesterol dropped 20 points and triglycerides dropped 93(!) points after a year on a vegan diet, finally within normal range after being elevated for the last 5 years on a typical SAD diet. I'm quite pleased!
How is a diet that is missing nutrients to sustain life and must need supplements or you die. We had a baby pass after a family member thought a vegan diet would be good parenting. Doctor told her, you must tell me, so I can check his blood and monitor, very dangerous.
@@slickdarulah8229More than 60% of babies take supplements to survive through baby formulas. It's completely normal.
Thanks for the info. Did you eat any advocadoes?
@@slickdarulah8229 A plant based vegan diet is recommended by the WHO for all stages of life. Ofc it's possible to eat badly as a vegan and suffer health consequences, same for vegetarians and meat eaters.
@Marie-Ray I am a little more skeptical trusting the WHO. Bill Gates fund 9 out of the 10 organizations that donate, and Germany is the other. Follow the money. If Bill Gates want the WHO and tv media to push lab foods, processed foods. Like beyond meat, plant based and loaded with dangerous processed seed oils that contained hexane. I rather stick to a organic, regenerative farmers diet. If you look at science that has no $ involvement, like bigpharma. Also their is like 10 essential nutrients that you can not get bioavailable via plants only. There is a lot of $ to be made $1,000 a month for insulin shots, when you get diabetes. Don't trust the reports from people that profit, it's called marketing and propaganda. Look at the rise in the last 50 years, obesity, diabetes, cancers and suicide. Who recommends foots that contains omega 6s that inflammatory to the brain (hence depression) and your whole body. I'm 68 and left 10 years of veganism. Now I'm I'm not 245, I'm 175. Eating healthy omega3, grass fed meats, no gmo corn or gmo soy fed to the cows.
Love that you mentioned African American stats on cholesterol. I keep trying to encourage my parents to eat better. It's so so important!
Absolutely. A poor diet is the largest contributor to death and disease in this country, and a healthy diet is one of the biggest health and longevity predictors.
So agree. Thank you for always doing this. ❤
A 220-240 number is the optimum for long life and health.
There is a guy "Pharaoh Said That", who talks about health in the African American community alot. The only problem is, he talks about alot of other things that you may not be interested in and his videos end up being about 2 hours. lol. But when talks about health, it's real because he's 67 and he talks about the health problems they have. He's been a Vegan for over 40 years, but he looks old because he almost died from getting stabbed when he was younger. Dr. Phil (of all people) encouraged my parents to eat better.
That’s great but for the people who are not Black Americans, please don’t assume that we all eat garbage. I grew up in vegetables (fresh from the garden), fruit (fresh from the gardens), and lean meat. My mom didn’t fry foods and all that. I think a lot of non-Black people assume we all eat garbage and junk food. NOT TRUE!
Would love to see a video about excessive protein consumption and how it's linked to atherosclerosis, CVD and whatever else it causes, as well as how it interacts with high (dietary) cholesterol.
And if there is a difference with plant protein….
@@roamsyVery true. Is protein supplementation harmful no matter the source?
Yes! I heard that plant proteins didn't contribute to those negative effects & was called moronic, so I'd like to know if I am XD@@roamsy
@@hannahmitchell87 from what ive read a higher protein, lower carb diet is very different and much healthier when plant based. Heres one study pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24500611/
My LDL went from 500 to 80 in one year by going to a no-oil, no dairy whole plant-based diet. Great Video Mic. Good energy and whit keeping us with you right to the bitter end.
From keto?
How did your LDL get so high?
I think that, even if one is prescribed statins, these lifestyle changes are worth applying. Statins only help so much, and if you can actually address the cause - rather than the symptoms - you might not need statins for long.
Statins reduce your strength somewhat too. Fenugreek on the other hand both lowers you cholesterol somewhat and makes you a bit stronger, as long as your keep exercising.
How about we discuss the frightening new study that found micro plastics in coronary artery plaques? So glad my total cholesterol is low. I did have a stroke and they thought I needed a stent for presumed blockage. There was no blockages thanks to my diet and my cardiologist advised me to stay on a WFPB for life to avoid another stroke. I got lucky that my cardiologist was a born and raised Hindu vegetarian . I doubt that a Western doctor would say the same thing.
6:50 it seems natural fibers from whole natural foods is the key to everything healthy.
At the beginning of the pandemic, I went fully plant-based after being mostly vegetarian for decades (still eating lots of cheese and ice cream). After a year, my cholesterol dropped 100 points, to my doctor's surprise. I'm 63.
Cholesterol is not bad is the calcium that buildup in our vessels .
😮amazing! 💚🌱
@@aliciacarmona5004Please post the scientific studies.
yall eat that damn fiber
THANKS! Im a 5 year vegan, and when I put on some weight, my choletorol went from 150 to 190 which i found surprising. Fat is bad. Especially saturated.
Mic posted!!! 🎉
That's how I feel every time!
Love your channel. Great video and love your science based approach…..I am celebrating 50 years as a vegan….. stay with it folks ….its so worth it
I see the meat industry trolls are as quick to react to your videos as they are when plant chompers uploads. They give themselves away with their emphatic, absolute and baseless claims and, their speed of response. They need to try a different approach; too obvious.
Actually I only recently learned about systematic "influencial" activity of the food industry. Before that it was somewhat a mystery for me, why there is such a difference between comments in keto/carnivore/low carb bubble (yep, was part of it, low carb version) and in plant based videos. You can see almost none criticism in keto/carnivore comments, while as soon as I became plant based and tried to ask questions or share my story - I was immediately attacked by "plants will kill you", "our ancestors were carnivore, this is the only diet" and so on.
Fascinating insight, thanks. The responses seem too well articulated, slick and orchestrated to be genuine. Despite being demonstrably fallacious. Just enough to seem reasonable while sowing doubt. The other thing I find hard to reconcile is why a bunch of genuine keto/carnivore folk would care enough to be such avid consumers of vegan videos.
Yea... We all work for the meat industry! Get a clue.
Perhaps.. just perhaps.. Mic & the rest of the PB posse have it all wrong. I love eggs but, today, made do with a small, fillet steak. The😺😸had chicken. Enjoy life within the V kindergarten.
The world has yet to produce a Dr Greger of eating meat. You know, an actual scientist who's actually compiled all of the data and not a marketing schtick meat bro hawking products.
Somehow, all of the science says these meat industry paid actors have it wrong, over and over and over again. Weird.
Someday, they really should get it together long enough to produce actual peer reviewed papers instead of just following the cigarette companies eith their disinformation tactics ala The Art Of Doubt.
But then, they'd have to live long enough and stop dying from heart disease suddenly like all the meat influencers keep doing for some reason.
Wow!! That was an amazing amount of information. Thank you! I’m vegan and 50, living with HIV, aka the HIVegan. Numbers were great for 7 years but lately I’ve been put on a statin and trying to lower my cholesterol. LDL is 123, triglycerides are 317. New bloodwork in a few weeks! Happy to have found you! :)
Total cholesterol was 168 in December 2010 before I went vegan in 2011. 5 years later I had it checked again and it was 127 and all I had done at this point was stop eating animals. I've had it checked a few times since and it stays below 140. It did rise a little from 127 to about 138 or so when I started eating healthier, But it stays below 140 and my LDL usually is below 70.
There are a lot of us with you! @mic please consider doing an episode on the quite high percentage of us WFPB peeps who have genetically high LDLs/cholesterol, and studies that can help us.
This video is very useful to me personally. Thank you!
what sucks is I get 85% of calories from whole plant foods and the "processed" stuff that I consume are things like soy milk, whole grain pasta, etc. and my LDL is in the 120s and total bounces between 170 to 180.
Even fasting a couple times per year and going almost entirely whole plant foods coming off the fast....nothing. For me, it is definitely genetic.
Oh, and with my high whole plant diet, my fiber intake per day is 70g to 100g per day. Saturated fat intake is typically around 6g to 8g per day, so pretty low, and it is coming from a few nuts and seeds
I'm in the same situation. It sucks
Same situation, but my ApoB is at 90. It sucks, genetics
It’s hard to keep nuts/seeds to that level. I have to choose and buy nuts I don’t like much eg. walnuts or else I eat too many!
Please, boycott palm oil!!
I'm 73 and eat pnut butter daily, one to two standard servings (2 tbsp), and it has 2 grams sat fat per serving, have never seen a pnut butter with 6 grams sat fat per serving, wow. I'm good about no oils, junk food, etc., but if I didn't eat moderate amounts of walnuts, pnut butter, and flax seeds daily, I would blow away. Wasn't that much aware of it, but you brought up point about pairing fatty foods with fiber, and luckily I've always done that, i.e. my walnuts and flax seeds always added to my morning oatmeal along with berries, peanut butter always spread on slice of Ezekiel bread and Wasa crackers with bananas for mid day snacks.
LOL, my wife and I both have high cholesterol. My wife takes statins, but I refuse to. I don't like the drug side-effects. Our diet has lots of fiber, and it is almost all whole food plant based with very little processed foods. In a typical day I have steel-cut oats with wheat germ, flaxseeds, apple, raisins and walnuts for breakfast. I eat a few burritos with black beans, brown rice and homemade salsa for lunch. And, for dinner we have things like mixed veggie stir-fries, Indian dishes like navratan korma or Swiss chard curry, and sometimes pasta dishes with lots of veggies. We do enjoy homemade bread, but it does have plenty of fiber with oats, chia seeds and ground flaxseeds. We do eat some vegan margarine, natural peanut butter, avocados and nuts. And, amla powder makes me gag as well. It could be that maybe we just need more exercise. I am not overly concerned about high cholesterol, but definitely curious about it. It sucks that our doctors are clueless regarding nutrition.
Just wondered do you use coconut milk in the curries? That’s something I had to cut out.
@@dj.h7424 we don't use coconut milk that often (maybe once a month), but coincidentally I did use it in a curry this past weekend. Thanks for the suggestion.
If I can make a suggestion, try taking a look at Dr. Brooke Goldner green smoothie a day. It worked for me.
I mix amla powder in with my morning oats so don't notice it
3:23 That reflection in the mirror in the background looks like you're dropping a verse in a Wu-Tang video.
That's the kind of stuff I always notice when I'm trying to focus on something else. But I have ADHD.
I've tried everything and have been eating WFPB oil free for 10+ years, but apparently familial high cholesterol is VERY stubborn, even when you have to resort to trying drugs! Very frustrating!
That's me as well.
@@k.h.6991 Sorry for you too. I can't get my LDL below 120 even with Repatha, and statins were totally useless.
bergamot works quite well as long as the brand uses the bergamonte form.
Been taking seeds now for about a year thanks to you mic and dropped the statins cause my levels dropped 15 points but my dr and i will keep an eye on it to see what’s what. thanks Mic😊
My cholesterol was 230 as a 30-something woman. Yikes! I became plant-based, it dropped to 200. I got my hypothyroidism fixed (appropriately medicated) and my other hormones adjusted and it's now in the 150s (I was in menopause from an early hysterectomy and extremely low estrogen can cause higher blood pressure and cholesterol). We are complex! Also, flax seeds and Brazil nuts have science behind them regarding cholesterol lowering.
Thanks for the great video! Timely, since i have a physical in 2 weeks and want to lower my cholesterol as much as possible. I switched to vegan in December, from pescatarian keto, for the main reason of lowering cholesterol. It was 330, dropped to 150 after 2 months on vegan, hoping for even lower. Maybe ill try some of these tricks.
My downfall is peanuts, with their saturated fat, but see they were on your list of lectin nuts that may help lower cholesterol, so maybe not so bad afterall?
It’s indeed an interesting observation that some studies have found a correlation between higher cholesterol levels and longevity in people who live to be very old. For instance, research has indicated that higher levels of total cholesterol may be associated with reaching 100 years of age1. Another study suggests that high LDL cholesterol (often referred to as “bad cholesterol”) is not associated with reduced lifespan and, in some cases, may be linked to greater longevity2.
Source?
Thanks Mic!
I had an issue with my cholesterol after being Whole Foods plant-based for six years at least. The cholesterol went up at some point between my tests, which was a one year gap I suspected that 3 ounces of organic peanut butter daily with two ingredients, peanut butter and light salt.
I had done a second test just to confirm and it was valid. My cholesterol went up from like 130 to 176 and LDL went up also from below 100 to like 126.
I eliminated the peanut butter and my cholesterol went down to 139 and LDL went down to like 78. Of course it’s not proof that this peanut butter did it but I’m pretty suspicious about it.
I don’t need peanut butter so if I know it’s gonna raise my LDL and screw that I’m not I’m not gonna use it. There’s plenty of other foods that taste just as good and are healthy.
as a vegan with ldl cholesterol of 170, thanks for this. I don't eat much saturated fat but definitely eat too much sugar. I'm hoping some of these tips can help me get to a healthy level without statins.
Great Video!
Mic, can you address Dr: Greger's negative views on probiotics? Between your vids and his I am confused on the subject? And thank you for the wonderful video!
I respect and love vegan!
FYI - MKA in red yeast rice is restricted in the USA to very low levels such that most people won't see a benefit from it.
Thanks for that info. I have been taking it with no effects.
I have a partially clogged left artery to the heart that my doctor said is the artery that causes heart attacks so this information was very very important to me thank you
I’m glad I’m always snacking on fruits and nuts at the same time.
What about octacosanol and policosanol supplements to reduce cholesterol? Can you look into them please, and perhaps mention them in a future video?
Everyone says Amla tastes terrible. I have bought it twice (once from Amazon, once from a kitchen goods store that also sells some pantry stuff) and I'm worried I'm eating something else because both times it tasted fine.
Reminds me of when I was told multiple times that magic mushrooms and truffles taste bad…I went to Amsterdam and bought magic truffles…I thought they tasted great, like pine nuts …too bad I didn’t like the high
From how people talked about natto I thought it would be really bad but it’s not. It’s a little bitter and the texture is a little strange but you add a bit of mustard or horseradish and it’s completely fine.
I went plant based (no oils,or saturated fat) and my ldlc dropped from 190 to mid 80’s. Pretty impressive if some vegans can get as low at mid 60’s - that’s almost heart attack proof
Please make a video about Triglycerides and VLDL.
Going on a vegan diet naturally will lower cholestrol but what about Triglycerides and VLDL??
Cholesterol is not the problem is the calcium accumulate in the arteries vessel. Why people are so misformed. Cholesterol is not bad .
HA❤ You did have time for jokes😂😂😂😂
I love the Trader Joe’s vegan ice cream treats, but all the saturated fats definitely contributed to my elevated cholesterol levels ☹️
Being a post menopausal woman means I have to put more effort into making the choices that help keep cholesterol and blood pressure down….😮💨
So many plant based ice creams use coconut oil in them👎
Does super low fat plant based diet crush LDL and ApoB?
at what point in the video is the summary?
"Every time I see a steak, I feel like I'm at a vegan funeral, surrounded by grieving carrots and mourning tofu. It's a real tear-jerker, but instead of tissues, we have kale chips."
I thought I have a great humour and a heartache same time
Alma tastes sour as hell but is an awesome antioxidant.
I mix amla with my other anti-aging supplements (glynac, taurine, AKG, creatine, quercetin...), and then with soymilk.
Hey could be make a video about research on SIBO?
Remember that lecithin is one of the substances that raises tmao
I’m vegan for over 10 years and have high cholesterol (I eat nothing with cholesterol) but believe it may be genetic as my parents both have high cholesterol. Could this be true?
What kind of peanut butter are you eating? Mine which is 100% peanuts has 1.5g saturated fat (and 6.5 g unsaturated) per 15g (1 tbsp). So that's less than 1/2 of yours. I hope you're not eating "peanut butter" that has hydrogenated vegetable oil and icing sugar in it.
What about spreads with added plant sterols? Do they just raise lipids?
Yep. My friend's father had not good cholesterol and high blood pressure on a vegan diet. He had a terrible life style.
He adopted better meals, stopped skipping meals, and started doing self massage.
Now he feels great again, blood pressure low, and he keeps pestering his friends to switch over to healthy type diet too instead of eating oily fried and so much sugar and such even if it is veg. No better preacher than a first hand witness haha
Who wants to do that? Colesterol bad, orange man bad, meat bad, milk bad. I’m staring to see a pattern here🧐.
What if you need to gain weight and have issues with low appetite though? Fat is an easy way to increase calories without being too filling. Fiber is filling. 🙃
What about fasting?
havent been on your channel for a while. Must say you look good😊🎉
for a malnourished vegan of course (#carnivoreswouldsay 😅)
Better oxalate than never.
The biggest trial on BDSM was double blinded.
I take 20MG Lipitor. My TC = 113; LDL = 51; HDH = 44; and TRI = 88. For breakfast I eat steel cut oats with oat milk, ground flaxseed, walnuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, cinammon, turmeric, blueberries and a banana. For lunch/dinner, I eat beans, greens, sauerkraut, mushrooms and potatoes. I also bake my own multigrain bread, which I snack on along with apples and oranges. Btw, I don't like taking B12 supplements; so, I'll eat one hotdog/week in it's place. I'll also nibble on chicken breast, turkey or fish occassionally. It's tough...
i think people on insta and tiktok comments have too much NPC protein
Whole Foods sells nothing without palm oil!
I’m only here for the jokes.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Love the video! I’m confused though, why would vegans have lower fecal bile if they’re eating more fiber? Wouldn’t the fiber catch more bile as it’s going through the high fiber folks?
because you'd produce less bile in response to lower protein triggers.
@@Aaron.Thomas sure, makes sense. But I’m assuming neither the vegans nor the meat eaters are eating enough fiber to catch 100% of the bile, I figure both groups would have more than enough bile to saturate the fiber they’ve eaten. And I was assuming the vegans would be eating more fiber
Fiber is not the solution that's not going to make things better vegan or vegetarian or meat diet.
We were vegans for many years my son was only 6 yrs old we ate healthy always no process food . We make homemade food . Later when my son rich 13 yrs old started get sick bloated nauseous and very pale he was always a slim child. Still to this day he's now 21 yrs old constantly get flare up constipated too. He's been to many specialist doctor and GI ...can not find the course of his illness. He also develop allergies certain foods especially bread he now gets hives. I had no choice but to go back to eating meat only grass Fed meat and organic eggs . He cannot gain weight for a 21 yes old he is only 103 pounds. The food industry is messing up the food we eat. Unfortunately.
@@aliciacarmona5004 reacting to bread and unable to gain weight. Did he get checked for celiac disease? And even if it’s negative, maybe he’d benefit from a gluten free diet
I ❤️ ewe!
Or you could just eat Oreo's for a week.
While my cholesterol dropped to normal range upon initially going vegan, it quickly rebounded within the year. I don't use oils, cook most of my own food and yet it continues to remain high. I had a coronary calcium score done and it came back at 0. I am 67 yrs old and was told only 49% of people my age have that score. I also have checked my hs crp which came back at 0.6 (normal is considered less than 1). So it would appear i am somewhat of an anomaly. I am still concerned about the cholesterol numbers but if my body is handling it ok then i figure my body just needs it.
Ваш внешний вид говорит красноречивее всего 💚🌱🐰🌞 благодарю за заботу о страждущих.
Why would you want to lower it? When a low cholesterol is associated so many health problems and with suicide in men. Vegans are manipulated to think causal when you talk about association, so lowing should be scary stuff to a vegan.
that’s some startling logic right there!!!😮
@@dj.h7424 more tongue in cheek joshing I'd say.
You only know about LDL because big pHarma got a drug that can lower it. No one knows or talks about VLDL or ILD because there no drug to lower it - Now that is corporate capture logic.

I just came for the jokes but was highly pleased with this top quality summary! 👍
Why would you want to lower cholesterol? It's literally what we're made of!
Cholesterol is not bad what’s bad is the calcium that develops in our arteries vessel we were misinformed.
Maybe I misunderstood Esselstyn, but as I recall he said "Nobody dies from a number." Of course he cares about cholesterol and does rarely prescribe statins for VERY sick people, but if one is eating his prescribed diet strictly then it is probably time to quit worrying about the number. And the idea of taking drugs for cholesterol sort of belies the fact that humans are the only animal obsessed with taking medicines and eating things that don't belong in their bodies. In some people maybe there is some reason for the elevation even when they do eat correctly that does not necessarily translate to inflammation and so the hs CRP etc is a better reading. And my young friend and guru, we question the age related increase in TC.. UNLESS you are eating SAD because I recall seeing numbers for elder Okinawans from immediate postwar data that showed those old timers with TC of 130 or less. I'm just one old male on whole plant diet and one data point, but at age 70 my TC for last five years has been mean of 155 which is 60 points lower than when I was an athletic 25 year old weightlifter eating high protein sort of paleo diet. My numbers continue to go down or hold steady generally, BUT here is an interesting thing seldom mentioned: Do NOT get your blood work DURING a significant fasting period more than just overnight because the TC and LDL likely to be about 30% higher than your average. I fasted 2 days to see if I could drop my LDL a bit, and what I got was a big surprise of almost exactly a 30% jump. There is some literature and research out there that 'splains all that, but in my great age I had never heard about it...and would be glad if you would report on that phenomenon some day. Anyway, fasting should affect the levels, long term for the better ..with caveat. Generally, if you wait a few days after the fast to do the test things should level out with a slightly lower TC and LDL according to some vegan doctors, and the long fasting test is an outlier that should be avoided or ignored from what I read. Question? What IS the best length of pretest fast for best TC results? AND does that cup of tea or coffee make a difference even though not a food exactly but an actual drug and should the cuppa be avoided til after the test?? Anyway, thanks for the good information. You always keep us informed and searching. :)
Esselstyn is not a cardiologist and has zero credentials in anything except being a general surgeon who does breast and thyroid repair. His diet promotes disease which is why it is not accredited by anything.
@@StanDupp6371lol not a chiropractor tho. 🌿🌱🥦❤️
I wish processed foods used coconiut oil. Instead of dangerous ultra processed seed oils that were bleached, its cheap and high in inflammatory, no omega3s.
Blimey, you don’t half “rabbit-on”!
Wow, it’s known that higher ldl is found in long lived people. So how any intervention that stops the body regulating cholesterol itself natural? Speaking about the digestion of fats by bile as some sort of alien yucky process is so misleading. Bile is required to digest not only fat but protein too, in meat fat and protein come together hence biles action. Shoving undigested food stuff through the body with fibre cannot be good, your body will pass fat it doesn’t need with or without fibre, sugar on the other hand once over one teaspoon in the blood is pushed into fat cells where it is later used as saturated fat, oh the horror.
So yeah the obvious thing to do is bombard your body with substances because it’s clueless.

But lower your cholesterol all you want. Lmao 🤣
@@1st2nd43 Well your body can make all the cholesterol it needs out of basically any hydrocarbons you eat. The problem with consuming high amounts of cholesterol and saturated fats in general is it raises you ApoB and saturated fat also inhibits your bodies ability to clear cholesterol
@someguy4967 is it really fat or the sugar that destroys the metabolism?
It's all controlled by your genetics. There are no studies that shows the long-term health outcome of someone eating nothing but fatty food absent carbs.
Now, there some evidence of people on a carnivore diet where their HDL rises dramatically, triglycerides lowers dramatically and their LDL is astronomical.
If you're not eating sugar, and eating fatty meat, who cares what numbers are what.
We only know studies based on the standard American diet. That's our standard of research methodology.
@@1st2nd43 There is plenty of evidence that high ApoB increase the chance of heart disease. So those numbers do matter, as high LDL cholesterol can be an indication of high ApoB.
There are also lots of studies outside of the SAD, That show the same evidence.
Why follow a diet that has no evidence but increase markers known to shorten life? lol
veganism and misinformation, name a better combo
Carnivore and misinformation

What's your apo B ?
Happy future heart disease!
Short term health results do not equal long term health. Obesity can cause the majority of the problems you listed.
One thing you won't talk about is that lower levels of cholesterol in the blood are associated with a heightened risk of developing major depressive disorder, as well as an increased risk of death from suicide.
But is just correlation!!! //// Evrey keto and carnivore enthusiast ever.
1 out of 4 or 5 people(depends on state) dies from heart disease.
Saturated fat is the food most linked to heart disease.
Only refined sugar is equally bad in food substitute studies(and nobody is promoting that for health).
With all these deaths, you want us to worry about if the 14 suicides per 100.000 people might have a correlation to low cholesterol.
Maybe focus on important issues.
Cholesterol can drop dramatically upon death depending on the cause, leading people to think lower cholesterol is worse. This is something that pops up now and then and is debunked constantly. But then a decade goes by and pops up again, similar to the low-carb life style. Until people start dropping dead in their 60's
Your brain is 25% cholesterol, your body is 20% cholesterol. Wanting less cholesterol is like wanting less blood, or bones.😂
You may not understand it since it may be beyond your capability, but every cell in our body can produce the required cholesterol. What's there in our blood does not reach the brain due to blood brain barrier, the brain makes its own cholesterol. Please stick to keto quackery elsewhere
@@ladagspa2008You gotta forgive him that pork fat is clogging his brain.
Because there cholesterol in every cell because guess what. Cells produce it.
Your body has also estrogen and testosteron, go and inject yourself with some more and see what happens. Also your body has fat, so eat it until you will reach 70% body fat, maybe this will help you to realise smth.
Your brain also functions only on glucose, you better have uncontrolled high blood glucose so you get smarter 😎

@@thatcanadiangrandma There still is no good or bad cholesterol. The deposits are because of chronic inflammation. Cholesterol is used to " patch" up leaking capillaries. Also cholesterol is used in cell membranes when cells are dehydrated to prevent water loss. What causes chronic dehydration? Sugar, carbs, stress, lack of sleep, mouth breathing etc. This is a simplified version of what's going on. Hope that helps.
Trump in 2018 the white house public health report said he had a BMI of 30, a total cholesterol of about 223 mg/dL, they got his lifetime LDL of 200 down to 143 mg/dL with medicine, he has a CAC score of 133 and no diabetes or high blood pressure and has never had any health problems and was only in a hospital one time when he was 11. His Vitamin D level was 20 ng/mL but that seems to be adequate as he is in better health than Dr. McDougall and Dr. Fuhrman who had to retire early. Dr. Shigeaki Hinohara a longevity expert who lived to age 105 said the worst thing a person can do is to have low cholesterol levels and be weak and feeble and retire early.
trump healthier than fuhrman?? hahahahaha!!!!!! best laugh in ages
@@dj.h7424 The laughs is on you since you have no facts. Trump is working non stop every day with vigor with no health problems and Fuhrman is a lot younger and had to retire many years ago for health reasons.
@@StanDupp6371 and the world rolls its eyes; I guess your jokes just aren’t funny anymore.
@@dj.h7424 You still have presented no facts, or studies so I will give another. In my local library there is a book by Fuhrman who eats a bunch of junk from plastic packaging and takes unregulated synthetic supplements which the body may view as a foreign unknown enemy and says in that book broccoli has more protein than steak. This is 100% false in both calories or grams.
@@StanDupp6371 well… protein per calorie is indeed comparable with broccoli, depending on the type of steak and the fattiness, obviously not per serving unless you love broccoli a la Bryan Johnson, but anyway that stat was clearly meant to demonstrate how counter-intuitive nutrition information is because of the brainwashing (of which many of us have clearly had our share over the years.). You could do worse than try Blueprint. Another trigger??
No such thing as bad cholesterol.
I ate a bunch of animal fat and my cholesterol went down.
I went vegan 9 years ago at age 44 and my scarily high bad cholesterol, triglycerides and blood pressure all fell like a stone to just above normal in under 9 months and my blood tests prove it. My doctor accused me of taking statin medication. “No, Doc” I said, “I just went vegan!” Also, my gains in the gym while vegan were the fastest and biggest of my life. I stopped lifting 6 years ago after a stupid kitchen accident, but I’m still around my college weight and look pretty ripped.
What about octacosanol and policosanol supplements to reduce cholesterol? Can you look into them please, and perhaps mention them in a future video?
Thanks, very informative.
i didn't realize this was so well understood and that so many things could attack it from different angles
Cool page. keep up the good work!
Best clip at the 10:25 mark. A lot of people just read the title of a study without reading it. If you read the first sentence its unclear if there is any association of total cholesterol and mortality. As Mic says dont age, and its obvious. Then shows a study, the korean study proved this, it was the largest study that debunked every we were taught. Ancel Keys lied with his 7 country study. Like taking eskimos off his study, since they ate the highest saturated fat and cholesterol from whales and had the lowest heart disease. Also took France off the list, cheese. Yet they were one of the lowest mortality rate. Ancel keys, who said Eisenhower died becuase of saturated fat vs smoking 2 decks of cigarettes, at the time the propaganda and doctors saying cigarettes were healthy, points out, these type of videos. We moved away from natural fats to lab fats, margerine, transfats, hydrogenated fats since the 70s, now we see more overweight people, matabolism shot, damaged mitochondria. But the good news insulin shots are up more than ever diabetes is a cash cow for these people.

Peanut-butter powder is the best, it has the fat removed. It's one of the only ultra processed things that remain in my diet.
Super interesting, also appreciate you pointing out that vegan food is not automatically 'healthy'. The nuance is important!
Good topic. Great video. ❤
4 years of WFPB SOS free, BP from 140 90 to 105 70. But TC 195 LDL 115 TG 220 HDL 4O APOB 98. Fats 30 gr all home cooked food. Stopped oats bananas reduced fruit, added seeds, salt, fat to 50 gr. After 6 months TC 172 LDL 100 HDL 52 TG 66! APOB 89. More time and test needed.
Hey Mic, Can you make a videos on those important herbs 🌿 like Amla and Guggle.
Because i think we are not getting more information about those herbs which can work as a natural supplement which maybe hard to get from regular vegan food.
Also i think we can get all the essential nutrients which we get sold in form of supplement from nature by using these herbs as a vegan alternative. 🌿🌿
