Thanks... Someday when I don't need to go out in public, I assume.

[@cherifitch6102]

Thank you so much for sharing all of your great knowledge with everyone! My husband was just diagnosed with high cholesterol and high blood sugar and we are super struggling to figure out what is okay for him to eat since everything seems to contradict each other. Also of course like you noted his doctor immediately tried to throw three to four different drugs at him which we do not want to do if at all possible! This is super helpful and I love all of your supplements that I have tried. We will definitely be ordering this combo!

What is considered too many small particles?

[@mistybatten1829]

[@steadychaosproductions3376]

Tried taking garlique for a quite some time. It did nothing. In fact, my LDL went UP when taking it.

When you say low crabs and sugar does that mean from fruits and vegetables or is it only the soda,cakes,cookies,bread, pasta ???

[@DrLivingood]

Hi there, when it comes to sugar, even natural sugars can be negative for your health goals. We recommend fruits and vegetables that are higher in carbs and sugars to be avoided until your health goals have been met, then having them in moderation after is fine! :) - LGD Team

I follow your advice. H is 81. D is 61. L is 205. Big fluffy particles. 6 months ago H and D about the same. L was 195. Is this a problem

Because our Support Team is not medically trained, and we want you to get the best answer to your question, I’d recommend asking this question on the ASK DLG Show. They are every Wednesday at 8:30 am EST. You can always ask health questions in the Challenge Crews! If you haven't joined the Lifestyle yet, you can check it out here! go.drlivingood.com/Lifestyle-Membership We always recommend if you have specific concerns with a pre-diagnosed condition and/or your medication that you consult with your physician. This also applies to changing the dosages of your medication and discontinuing usage. -LGD Team

[@patriciaschepp4936]

I thought in a different video you said to take apple cider vinegar to help lower cholesterol. Is that true?

[@DrLivingood]

Apple Cider Vinegar is a powerhouse that can help support a healthy inflammatory response, support healthy weight management, cardiovascular support, and support blood sugar levels already within a normal range. We recommend The Cholesterol Support and Omegas+Turmeric bit.pulse.ly/ldpxbndxkd -LGD Team

[@GreatYachts]

So then with lots of small particles, I can still eat the actual avocados and olives just not the oils??? Help, pls. advise. thanks!

[@DrLivingood]

Correct! You can still eat the actual avocadoes, but we would recommend switching from plant-based oils to butter or ghee. Just make sure it doesn't get heated up too much when using it! 🙂 - LGD Team

[@lauriwest435]

How do you get your doctor to check particle size? Is there a specific name for that test and should insurance cover it? My total cholesterol is 270, HDL 110, LDL 150 and Triglycerides 50. I am 57, on anastrozole for 2 months now, finished chemo for TNBC in January. My chlolesterol has been high for several years but went higher recently (side effect of anastrozole possibly). I am about 50 lbs overweight, trying to eat healthier in general.

I have good HDL numbers but high LDL as well as small particle size. I’ve been doing the majority of your recommendations for awhile but my numbers are off the charts. I currently fast 2 separate days a week for about 41 hours each time. How often would you recommend I fast and for how long?

@@DrLivingood how do you know what plant sterols contribute to atherosclerosis? I take your cholesterol lowering supplement and noticed it has plant sterols but in some of your other videos it says plant sterols can contribute to atherosclerosis… Is there something to verify that your supplement does not?

[@pamelaulery2772]

Pardon my ignorance, but I don't know what "particles' are. What are they and why are they significant? Also, do you find out what size they are by having a blood test? If you get a test, how do you know if you have good sized particles or not? Please excuse me if this sounds silly, but I've never heard of this. 😐

[@GreatYachts]

You h ave to ask the Dr for the blood test that shows the size of the particles in your blood. ie., Cardio IQ

[@peterdee4638]

Me either until i saw it here. Asked.for it. Insurance doesn't cover it. Glad i did .. showed an Issue that left unwatched can cause insulin resistance!

@@DrLivingood PC doctor doesnt test for the particle size. How do we address this so a doc will do the test?

[@roseannreynolds8904]

I had to ask for it, as it is a separate test. @@Sconzette

[@GreatYachts]

I believe it's a Cardiac IQ test or NMR maybe? Ask your Dr.

[@nancyblock8833]

Dr. Livingood, You have lots of good information. But I have one request - it's presented with such fast talking. That makes it very hard to keep up, or take notes. Please consider slowing down the talking. I know you're probably on a time limit, but if you can't finish, then how about a part 1 and part 2.

[@tammyadams7965]

How can taking statins increase my risk of a 2nd heart attack? Both my cardiologists said without them can be fatal.

Organic rolled oats and steel cut oats do not spike insulin. That’s because of the high fiber in it slows down the glucose.

I have a question for the doctor about cholesterol. 🍈 It seems to me that no matter how you lower cholesterol whether it is diet, supplements, statins etc that unfortunately down comes your testosterone too. What man wants that? Now you are exposing yourself to fragility, osteoporosis etc.🍅 It seems you can't win. The world is on statins and as we all know statins anihilate testosterone.🍊 A healthy heart but at what cost.
