0:00 How to understand the basics of cholesterol
4:45 Here are the five types of lipoprotein, along with each one’s function
7:35 Dave Feldman explains the complex subject of cholesterol in an easy-to-understand way
15:15 Several years ago, Dave became obsessed with finding out more about cholesterol. He experiments on himself.
26:45 Dave explains how HDL cholesterol works closely with other types of lipoproteins
I interviewed cholesterol expert Dave Feldman. First, I explain the basics of cholesterol, so you’ll understand the concepts he describes.
Cholesterol isn’t fat. It provides the raw materials for certain hormones; it makes up all of your cellular membranes, and part of your brain, and insulates your nerves. Cholesterol helps make bile, which allows your body to properly digest certain fats to extract fat-soluble vitamins, and essential fatty acids, and make vitamin D.
Your body makes about 3,000 mg of cholesterol every day. While cholesterol is part of the plaquing in arteries, it’s not the cause of clogged arteries. Instead, it’s a healing substance.
Triglycerides are a type of fat, and I explain how your body transports them with the five different types of lipoproteins.
Dave Feldman is a software engineer who’s become a cholesterol expert, and regularly performs experiments and biohacking on himself. In this video, he explains cholesterol in an easy-to-understand way. He also talks about the role of keto and fasting. I promise you’ll find his talk both valuable and entertaining!
Treat yourself to this highly informative explanation of cholesterol, keto, fasting, and their role in your health.

Thanks for watching! Remnant cholesterol is a more accurate gauge of your health risk than LDL cholesterol is.
This is a long presentation, but important because of the massive complexities and related big words. Take your time and pause and digest each point especially if you have any concerns or ideas that your high cholesterol or LDL is going to harm you. We spent quite a bit of time trying to explain each piece of the puzzle so you get it.
I'm a big Fan,Sir.
Dr. Eric Berg DC brilliant, Dr. Berg. I fell off of my Keto during the holidays. I’m back on today, thanks to you.
(Lipids) my doctor says I have high of them I trying spell it off your video sorry if didn't spell right
Dr. Eric Berg DC thanks Eric....best video of 2019 so far... keep up the great work!!
And thank goodness for pioneer Dave Feldman...he’s gonna do great things for us :-)
Thank you sir
Dave Feldman should be awarded a PHD for his research.
The AMA probably wants to whack him, and I don't mean the motorcycle organization.
Man u follow Mr berg very rigorously.... M also from India 🇮🇳
Parmbir dhaliwal can I get ur email id
This has to be one of the best videos I’ve seen on cholesterol. I’m so grateful for TH-cam, keto diet and Dr. Berg. “healthy keto” has changed my life physically, mentally, and emotionally.
It has taken two engineers (including Ivor Cummings) less than two years to completely debunk 60 years of blind ignorance by innumerable MD's, lipidologists and dietitians. Bravo Dave and Ivor!
As a software engineer myself I get frustrated how diet and other "known truths" lack this kind of a logical approach.
Great work!
Yep, my Dr was an engineer.
I thought I would never find a Dr that knew more current info than me about this stuff.
bravo David Diamond too
I worked a decade at the greatest software company of the last century as a software tester, writing software to test shrink-wrapped applications and automating processes inhouse; Gotta say, software developers are very smart and detailed oriented in their work. This probably spills over into their real lives also.
the problem with doctors are they aren't trained properly, all of them (after getting graduated from med school) aren't confident with giving nutrition advice.
I never get tired of watching this. Feldman, Cummins et al as Engineers have Scientifically explained the Lipid System in our amazing bodies. Doctors like you and laymen like these have a love for the Science of the Human Body (Physiology of). You, all, are making a difference in quality of life, by educating those of us that have trusted a System that has failed us. Time to take control of our Nutritional lives through Education. Can never thank you enough for your commitment and hard work needed to prepare and present. Then it’s up to us to make it work in our own lives.
Wow absolutely amazing! This shows how the SAD way of eating is killing all of us. The average Dr is not concerned with Keto, except mine, who told me to go on Keto diet and put's his patients on it. I am learning to make new recipes to stay on it. I had lost weight and went back to eating junk. This time around, I am educating myself more because this is not a diet but should be the only way of eating. This also shows why weight watchers stock plummeted and all the people pushing the wrong information for years are running scared. Just remember there are big bucks in illness, it is a business and many companies stand to lose if we all get well. Thank you so much DR BERG!! You are the best
Amen
Still confusing BUT It is absolutely amazing that a software engineer will be the one to lead the way to understanding cholesterol. And for that, I put all faith in him
Not really amazing .. Smart people can do most jobs if they have the desire to do such work.
LOVE the work Dave Feldman is doing. Thanks, Dr. Berg for having this video!!!
The best part of a Software Engineer is they are highly competent as a researcher. Their bread and butter is to problem solve and analyze data to develop algorithm to solve that issue. Good job.
Fantastic presentation by both Dr Berg and Dave Feldman! Their illustrations will stay with me especially in trying times and when tested by people’s negative reactions to my eating style and preference!
A few years ago, i told my doctor that i refused to take any more statin drugs for my high cholesterol. That medicine was throwing off my liver readings and making my muscles ache! Now after viewing this, i realize that i made the right decision. Thanks!
Tonio Yendis I did the same
I don't blame you my doctor was going to put me on a statin. And they already had it go to my pharmacy. I told them to put it back because of the side effects. My best friend tried cholesterol lowering medication. And she went back off because of the side effects. I won't even go on a statin because I know what it will do to me.
After many months requesting Dr.eric and Dr. Mercola to explain cholesterol in a way that is more in detail like this and finally it is here. Thank you for this amazing explanation!
Very important presentation about cholesterol 👍🙋🏻♀️
Thanks a million Dr Berg and Dave Feldman 🌷🌿💕
2013 my LDL-P shot way up too. Then I was very glad to see Feldman working on this.
I contributed to his early data gathering and then kinda forgot about it - until recently.
Glad to see Feldman doing so well. He deserves it.
Thank you Dr. Berg & Dave Feldman for putting this video to public; is very educational info, easy to understand.
3 years late to this, yet probably one of the best videos I've come across on TH-cam, in a long time. Glad I had this in my recommendations.
Great to see the Keto Connect guys getting up and taking part! Brilliant! We've experienced high LDL since starting the keto lifestyle and this was a great way to see how it all works! 100+lbs down between us and have reversed Skatz' type 2 diabetes! 💕
I learn so much from Dr. Berg and Dave Feldman! God bless them!
Best video on cholesterol I've ever seen. Thank you.
Awesome video...I loved how Dr Berg explains the basics of cholesterol and how the functions were acted out in the beginning
Dear Dr. Berg,
I feel immensely grateful to you for all the lectures you podcasted on Ketosis. Thank
you!
Just one thing. I am 83 years old, and still getting all the benefits from fasting. Any special advice for very old peoples like me?
My blessings.
Q.A.Husain / Bangladesh.
Nice video explaining in detail about the cholesterol. Always confused why people think cholesterol is bad. Now got a clear idea.
Thank you for this amazing presentation!
This guy took one after the other for the team.. : ) Thanx for sharing and for the briefing.
Entertaining and informative. Two thumbs up!
That was a fantastic, well explained, in depth, presentation. Thank you Dr Berg and Dave Feldman for doing this.
God bless these guys.. Just took a standard blood test. Been on keto for 5 weeks, lost 17 pounds and the doc said my LDL is super high and he would give me a paper on cholesterol lmfao. It's weird to think you know more than today's doctor's when new research comes out.
Thank you Dr Berg!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE all the biochem and the cholesterol explanation is awesome. I'll be reviewing this over and over...
Stunning data!!! Wow...
Dr. Berg, your definitions and boat explanation is excellent!
Thank you Dr. Berg. This is from that conference last fall! Ha! Loved seeing Logan Sneed as Super LDL
Thanks a lot for Sharing Dr Berg, that was really Eye opening and important to give out
Awesome information 🙂👍, Dave Feldman Rocks!
Excellent video! I've been studying cholesterol for the past two years and found the information on this video to be one of the most useful researches I have come across. I've already seen this video three times. lol
Thank you Dr.Berg. And amazing research, Dave!
THANK You, Dr. Berg you are truly a blessing and a God sent! I watch you everyday (many times a day) and support you and your products. I've learned so much from you, totally enjoyed your guest and his studies on cholesterol awesome!!! Oh yeah the way you prepared us for the study was great it allowed a better understanding for what was to come. Thank you and your lovely wife.
Amazing research. Loved this!
Hey Dr. Berg and Dave ... BEAUTY! Thanks so much!
Brilliant video, when hearing snippets of different results of what's been explained here to a lesser extent literally years ago I always thought it made sense.
This guy just confirmed literally everything👌
Thank you so much, Dr. Berg!
One of the best explanations and illustration I’ve ever heard on this subject. I have been hesitant about going all in on keto due to the cholesterol and its readings. Im so grateful for this. Thank you
Dave Feldman - a superhero we need but don't deserve! :)
Thank you ever so much!!
All the best to you!!
I feel like I'm in a college course watching this, and I mean that in the best way! Seriously this is information most people wouldn't just give away for free, especially in this great format. Thanks to you both! I just got the recommendation from my endocrinologist to begin taking a statin, and it's my mission to become as knowledgeable as possible before my next appointment. This will certainly help.
Wonder presentation!!! Bravo!!! 👏👏👏
Awesome information...thank you!
Thank you for the information on all of your videos! And I mean that with the utmost sincerity. I had an EXTREMELY poor diet about a month ago. I suffered from a seriously bloated stomach, sever lethargy, achy joints, depression/anxiety. I was eating cookies and brownies probably 5 or 6 days out of the week. This passed month my diet is completely changed and for the past 5 days I've been fasting 20 hours each day🤯 something I never thought possible. Whenever I had cravings I would put on one of your videos and they would help keep me on track. I had a brownie yesterday that I couldn't even finish due to my new diet and significantly lower cravings. Sugar was on my mind most of the time and now I can happily say I might think of something sweet maybe once a week. My quality of life has drastically improved and you have played a part in it. Thanks doc ❤
Excellent video. Very entertaining demo of some fascinating scientific concepts.
Thank you for the presentation,
Awesome video Dr Berg as this is exactly the kind of in depth validated info on a subject so maligned and misrepresented by the main stream media and the medical and pharmaceutical industry which in my opinion is causing the death and debilitation of millions Americans. This is exactly what the public needs to start making informed decisions on their health and nutrition needs. Thanks again to you and to Dave for his efforts to clear the misconceptions up. GREAT JOB ALL !!
Is the standard american diet really a footlong, a whole pizza and another footlong?
I feel it's more like bowl of cereal at 8am, snack, snack, footlong at 12pm, chips, soda, snack, soda, snack, pizza at 9pm, soda, snack, soda.

OUTSTANDING presentation . Thank you.

Most welcome! Glad you liked it!
Vegan options please! I am a big fan of you Dr. Berg. Thank you for what you do.
Great Video
Amazing! Thank you to you both for such an informative and eye opening video with so much detail and clear explanation.
Dr Berg and Dave Feldman are d Bomb!
Excellent very pedagogical présentation.
Thanks Dr Feldman, Dr Berg.
Thanks to the actors.
Thanks Mrs Berg for the good introduction.
God bless you all.
Hi Dr. Berg and Dave from Connecticut.. 👍
Great discussion!
👏👏
Very interesting. Many thanks.
Here I was thinking you were taking the day off! Great presentation.
Dr. Berg, I would love to hear your thoughts on those with Familial Hyperlipidemia! I have it, and have been seeing a very cutting edge cardiologist here in LA (who is a fan of Feldman and keto!) after we found I have 28% blockage as a 36 yr old incredibly fit and otherwise healthy man. It frustrates me to no end I still have to take meds for this condition. Diet was not making much of a dent in the LDL-P and 2 other true danger factors that are produced by my own body and not from diet. Thanks in advance, I love your work, watch every video you put out!
Yes Dr Berg please your views on this issue is most appreciated. Thanks!

I’m also FH. I’ve been on 22 drugs. Statins nearly killed me. I’ve been on LDL Apheresis and now in my third clinical trial for PCSK9 Inhibitors. I was in a 5 year study for Repatha and that works well with least side effects for me. If cholesterol were killer I’d have been dead decades ago. I’m 57 now. It’s insulin resistance and vascular damage that are the culprits then the cholesterol fills in the damage and blockages start. Look at D3/K2 to remove the calcium and blockages and help reverse heart disease, it’s helping me. Good luck!
I just love your videos you truly help us to understand things so much better!!! Thank you for all your wonderful work in educating us!!
Thank you is all what you need to know 🌹❤️
I'm with this guy 100% and this low CARB idea but bodies are different. I lived off CARBS the last ~20 yr of my life as a runner pretty much and stayed in the 140 LBS weight range and ran from all fats. My body just will not gain much weight per yr no matter what I do. Even after stopping running, I stayed with the CARBS, probably less of them, and my wight stayed the same.
Now I'm cutting out lots of the CARBS, mostly sugars, plus actually eating some fatty foods, and no changes in my body weight again...
Yesterday I found out that after 4 years my CA score went from 57 to 220. Very discouraging. I am normal weight. Organic. Zero seed oils. Zero grains. Zero sugar. Grass fed, wild caught, free range meats. Vit D level 87.5. Supplement Vit K. Physically acvtive. I eat 99.9% at home. I use raw dairy (cheese, cream, butter). My doctor gave me an rx for a statin and I told him I would not take it. My cholestrol is high at 257, but that doesn't seem that bad from what I read. Dave feldman offered $$ for the results I have : High Hdl (53), high LDL (183), low trigly. (106) and increasing cardiovascular disease (quadrupled CA heart score). Today I began eating natto.
I love Matt and Mega in this 😂
Nathan Niyazov finally....I been waiting months to see their performance....almost forgot about it....lmfao!!!
Shared! Thanks!
This is amazing
Very cool study
Thanks Doc
THANK YOU
Thank you.
Thanks doc :)
This proves the fact that "The first Doctor was a Non-Doctor"
Thanks, Dr.Berg & Dr.Dave
Must say again, just great!!!!
Thank for the video
You're welcome. It's my pleasure.
Mega and Matt ... good jobs
I get it! Finally. I have watched yours and Dave Feldman’s videos so many times... and I finally get it. I follow a Keto Diet. My total cholesterol is 335, LDL-C 221, HDL-C 75, Triglycerides 195, VLDL-C 39. And my doctor’s answer is to put me on Prevastatin. Based on this explanation of the lipid system, I’m thinking I should eat MORE fat to lower my triglycerides. Correct? Oh, and I’m APOE 4/4. Hi Mega and Matt!
Yes
@@Drberg thank you... It's so hard to get a straight answer. I also have similar test results. 283 ldl, 87 hdl, Vldl 15, 75 triglycerides.. 62 year old grandma. But I feel great, don't smoke, blood pressure is good, and last year lost 50 pounds on keto and now am trying to maintain on keto, so very frustrated that my doctor wants to intervine. I really think I'm fine, but I'm going to try to manipulate the ldl for the doctor with 3 days of high fat keto eating and heavy excersise.. hope it works.
Love this ! !
Thank you so much!
Dr. Berg's Support Team
thank you
Im confused a little. In your previous videos you mentioned your body making 2000mg/dl of cholesterol per day. Am I off or do you have new information?
Between you and Dr. Rhonda Patrick, im learning a ton. Apprecitate it/you guys are awesome. Keep it up!
Awesome. 👍
I have been photographing my intake for a long time. 16m: The left hand is a nice touch. (See what I did there.) I am going to photograph my hand too from now on.
The .8 r score is unreal, he’s tied 64% of all variance in LDL directly to diet.
Thank you Doc. Truly you’re a bigggg help to teach all these veryyyy informative things that no one,even our PCP has not given time to teach us. Thank you. Doctors nowadays are just a script pad and prescription, it’s scary to even complain of anything otherwise that’s another drug to take.
I will come back and study this with more intent. I admire and value this classroom .
;+) Bill
Very complicated to understand . I will finish it but it’s very detailed and medical terminology is complex
Ty
Im 57 had the CIMT test 2 years ago there was moderate blockage - started keto 9 months ago, just did CIMT again - normal - NO sign of plague!!
Really
This is a long and fairly complex presentation which I will have to watch a few time to fully understand. What I found amazing is that the first time I saw my nutritionist to verify what I could do to reduce my ldl cholesterol level and also loose some fat around my waste the first thing she told me is to reduce my bread consumption and increase my fruits and vegetables consumption. Eating a lot of bread is what Dave did to gain fat. I have once again reduced to a minimum the amount of bread that I am eating and I am melting like butter around my waste. What I find unfortunate is that loosing weight around the waste is not directly correlate to cholesterol level as it is much easier to measure then cholesterol level from a blood sample analysis. Please let me know if cholesterol level can be correlated to other symptômes easier to measure.
dr berg what do you think about cafestol from coffee increasing LDL cholesterol? should we be concerned?
Reading were
Chol - 7.58
HDL - 2.10
Trig -0.67
Calc LDL - 5.18
Tc/HDL - 3.6
I’ve Just had my medical at work. I know these are uk figures but I’ve been told to visit my doctor as I may need statins The other advice is to take sterols. I’m 49 (male) I fast (20/4 IF) I run 20km per week for general fitness. I feel like I may have been given bad advice. Any comments or advice?
Would you please post the link for the research article. Please
I think "vegans" and the like will question the LDL under and over 170. They would say BOTH are high, so of course they show nearly the same amount of problems. I am playing devils advocate, because I was nearly vegan for 3 years. Then my nails got weak and broke constantly, my hair got thin, my veins got bad etc etc so I went back to meat and eggs. It has been about 4 or 5 months - still recuperating!!
Why not just supplement with B12 and be a vegetarian? That way at least you can have fish or eggs if you want but you wouldn't be supporting the factory farms and animal cruelty? I don't eat mammals or birds and I am very healthy now for decades, ever since reading about the factory farms in my teens. Vegetarian is a good option for people who want to be healthy and care for animals and the environment as well.
@@Lulu-kt6gr I only eat local organic meat and eggs so I do not support factory farming.
@@Lulu-kt6gr Turns out plants have consciousness so now what?
Amazing
Thanks for watching! Glad you liked it.
Matt and Megha, you guys are the BEST!! HA!
