In this video, we’re going to talk about dealing with high cholesterol and LDL on keto.
Two organs in your body make cholesterol-your liver and your intestines. Bile salts control the majority of your cholesterol.
Excess cholesterol is eliminated through various pathways that involve bile. What this means is that bile gets rid of cholesterol, and cholesterol levels are dependent on bile.
Your intestines have receptors called bile acids receptors (BAR). BARs suppress cholesterol.
There’s a condition called essential hypercholesterolemia. This is when you have an excess amount of cholesterol in your bloodstream. “Essential” means that they don’t know what causes it. This includes familial hypercholesterolemia-this means it’s genetic.
A high-fat diet can cause hypercholesterolemia. Hypothyroidism, kidney damage, and bile deficiency can also cause this problem.
What causes a deficiency in bile? Liver damage is the primary factor. Fatty liver, liver inflammation (hepatitis), liver fibrosis, and cirrhosis can all cause a deficiency in bile. Anything that decreases liver function decreases bile production.
Intestinal damage can cause a bile deficiency. Numerous conditions and medications-including antibiotics-can contribute to poor intestinal health. In turn, this will increase your cholesterol.
Taking purified bile salts and probiotics can help improve your overall bile.

Dr. Berg, I like the old format better.

Agreed! Prefer because he's able to utilize more space to refer back and forth to other illustrations vs. Creating new pages.

Dr. Berg is all about giving up your old self for new. This new format is great because it provides an additional visual with his previous videos. He’s basically said everything he needed to say with the old format anyways.

[@unjahanakawit2455]

I prefer the old format as the highlights are already presented which makes it easier to understand. I have been on keto diet and IF since March 2022. My weight in March was 97 kilograms and as per today is 70 kilograms. I learned keto diet and IF from Dr. Berg's video. Thank you very much Dr. Berg for your great contribution. Nevertheless, I'm still struggling with my liver cancer Hopefully, with ketogenic diet and IF I could be recovered from the disease.

It’s an ok format but I do prefer the smart board. Larger to see and take in the info!

[@larrylara6589]

Love your info doc! I think I prefer the big board because all of the info from the presentation is visible for the entire presentation. One show board is equal to a dozen screen shots from the tablet. Thank you for all that you do. You and Dr. Berry have changed my life. You’ve saved it!

[@dallashellmich1487]

I tested for high cholesterol levels recently and the doctor said “you need to make healthier eating choices “ without even asking what I eat haha. I’ve been doing keto and IF (20-4) for almost 4 months now and have been in the best shape of my life! I eat 6 eggs a day with an Avocado, that’s probably why I have high cholesterol. I feel amazing though, so I’m going to keep my eating habits the same!

yup they tied a bad stigma to high cholestrol like they did with Fats..and then they hid the bad stigma associated with carbs and sugar to keep the food manufacturing industry making $$$

This format is fine but older one was better due to more brighter appearance 🔆

[@jacinta2707]

Hey Eric, this was very interesting to hear about the things that contribute to bile. II have had high LDL and triglycerides for about 20 years. Now I have been doing things you suggested and my LDLs and triglycerides are both in a healthy range. No drugs were used only a change to my diet. I’m a success story. 😊

[@As-fk1rb]

What is a normal day of eating for you? My husband is 37 he had a heart attack last yr and had to have quadruple heart bypass surgery pass all his arteries were blocked except one it was 10%open one wasn’t able to be repaired and he has high cholesterol from genetics he is on meds but it’s not enough

[@jacinta2707]

@@As-fk1rb I did things Eric suggested in his videos; I changed my oils to avocado oil and started eating avocado more regularly, mostly every day in the warmer months and a few times a week when it's cold. I also changed to butter; more recently, I use grass-fed butter. I pretty much cut out all deep-fried food. I started eating salmon a couple of times a week, only 100g serve. All of the changes were small changes, just changing out one product of another. My doctor suggested eating Weet-Bix by Sanitarium and I selected the Cholesterol Lowering option. I used this for a few months; they say it has 2g plant sterols that can lower cholesterol within 4 weeks by up to 9%. I don't know how much that had on my results, as my cholesterol test was more than a year after using it. I have a good diet with a good mix of meat, vegetables and a little fruit. I make most of my food at home. I am usually a relaxed and happy person, which I think helps. Good luck with your husband recovery. The body is capable of amazing things; being full of wellbeing is it's natural state.

Overall I like the smart board better. This format isn't bad and might be a good option in the rotation. Maybe use it for special topics or something like that.

[@romasplace1]

I like the new format because it is clearer to see. Sometimes with the large whiteboard you can't see and read everything even on pause. But there's a place for both in your videos. Another + is we get to see you too which makes the video feel more personable. Don't know what I/we would do without you Eric. Thank you for every video I've watched you keep me sane in a crazy assed world. 🥰

I love the whiteboard and don’t want that to go away, but I love this too. It’s new and fresh. Sometimes when we stick to the same old routine people shuffle along and don’t pay attention.

Dear Dr Berg, altering your presentation mode once in a while is refreshing and I have no problem with it.

All your efforts to inform are highly appreciated. ❤️ you...

Thanks for the great info. I really like the new format. Having the notes really helps so we can refer back to them. There's so much information, even when I take notes it's easy to miss something.

[@michellehecht3409]

What I liked about this new format was that it was easier to see what was on the pad, AND that you were writing/drawing as you went along. When you use the whiteboard with everything written out already, it looks cluttered and the eyes immediately start reading everything, which distracts the viewer from what you are saying. When you use the pad, I am able to focus on one thing at a time. It is much cleaner than circling and drawing arrows on existing text. Breaking away periodically to show the function in the body is great for maintaining interest and clarification. I propose a marriage of the two: start with clean whiteboard or only a couple of diagrams and words, then write/draw as you go.

This is so helpful! I've been struggling with high LDL since my early 30’s. I have yet taken statin drugs. Doing ok with my diet, however, now that I am almost 50 Dr. is strongly advising statin drugs this time. I want to find our more what I can do. So, I’m seeing a naturopath. Naturopath Dr. ordered an advanced lipid testing so we will see. I seen your video on LDL cholesterol as well. I suffer with digestive issues as I dont go #2 daily. Every other day. My normal lab work are normal as far as thyroid etc...the only elevated one is my cholesterol. I've done keto as well, but not religiously. I was pre-diabetic 4 years ago and I was able to reverse it and been good ever since. Now I have to be extra proactive with the cholesterol. I also exercise at least 3x a week - walking and vinyasa hot yoga. By the way the NEW LOOK IS GREAT! PLEASE advise me what other videos of yours that can be helpful to me? Thank you, Tina from Seattle, WA

I always appreciate the time put into making these for free and it has helped me really understand keto and what is going on in my body but I will be more honest than most, I won't watch as many if this is the format now. I need the board, pausing to read all of it before you talk or I can't follow that quickly because I lose focus, I don't pay attention to a face (or just a voice.. can't do audible either I need to read the words in a book) I drifted off and read the comments during the first minute and before I knew it you were finished. I'm hoping it's a sign of high intelligence 😉😁

[@robertthompson6302]

I like the format. I think over time, it connects well. People don’t like change though... It’s more intimate; more like sitting down at a meeting etc. maybe the cutaways to your writing can be done post ( where you can make them very clear and add some important detail) this might be a perfect blend of a more intimate connection, but also using time and space it takes to scribble out info to create clearer, more impactful written communication. Many times, I’ll take screenshots of the white board and later when I look at them, I feel like they are missing some of the great verbal details you suggest. Good job modifying things as usual. You are doing important work.

She agreed. The second time my levels were 👍 good, she said to keep doing what I'm doing to keep it down or level' what ever they call good, and all i did was mostly celery juicing and like I said before I'm not a big eat never was. I'm really trying to keep semi healthy in this crappy world of distributing food. But i do grow all my herbs and some veggies, we buy organic local meats my hubby's a meat eater so I do eat some.
