Dr Aseem Malhotra on The Truth About Cholesterol - CNM Podcast

[@mintamaharaj9552]

Very intelligent conversation. I always have high cholesterol for almost 40 yrs. Total of 7:1 and 6:4 the dr say if I don’t reduce it I’ll die from heart failure. Well 49 yrs I’m still here. I pray eat right what I cook exercise and almost 69 yrs of age. Prescribe my own vits. I’ll not go drs.

[@toni4729]

The world should hear this. Thank you Dr. Malhotra.

[@Thirdfish]

Your GP won't.

[@martin5504]

Great to hear Dr Malhotra speak.

[@Johnny-gm9wo]

@martin5504, Malhotra is a scam artist.

[@Kurt-d6j]

Thanks

[@tinkerbell9399]

Thanks for this. Very suspicious of this cholesterol fearmongering. Researched statins, and side effects appear to be numerous and severe in some people. Sure I read recently they want to put everyone 50 and over on statins routinely. Someone’s making a lot of money from this!

[@alisonbrown2614]

You're right. So many of the people I know who are over 60 are on statins or have been offered and refused. I had a panic attack after being told that my cholesterol and blood sugar levels were too high, but then the same was said to my friends who appear to eat the right foods and are otherwise healthy. I've just found out that doctors base it on what is shown to be a higher than normal level, when these figures are sheer conjecture. I'm pleased to have come across this video. By the way, my brother-in-law was on statins for quite some time and he had very bad aches and pains in his joints - until he came off them. His doctor told him that statins are very cheap so they're giving them out as much as possible.

I have inherited cholesterol issue .rises rapidly when I stop. But it's affecting my memory already after ten yrs on it. What is the truth? Who to believe. So many lies and so much deception .I'm doomed either way 😢

Hey hey hey don’t rock the profit boat!!!

[@lmyers9999]

Need to update the famial clotting factor IS the problem NOT the high cholesterol!!

[@acesupsilver1039]

Had a stent put in about a year ago and now after watching this I wonder if I should stop the Stantin or continue....Trying to break the sugar habit and since the stent breathing , exercise and weight loss alot better...

[@briangrady5381]

Had three stents a year ago. Stopped statins after a month. I’m now carnivore, lost 60 lbs, I exercise and enjoy it. At one year follow up doc took me off all meds. Cholesterol is good. Not bad. Sugar/ carbohydrates = disease and death

[@acesupsilver1039]

same here my friend!

[@stealth48nurse]

Never stopped them suddenly. But do get off them over time

[@greatjaygatsby]

Does taking supplements like berberine and monacoli K (red rice yeast extract) help reduce cholesterol naturally?

[@elishevajones6730]

Red rice yeast is the same thing as statins.

[@abduraghmaancharles2318]

I need information on FAMILIAL HYPERCHOLESTEROLEMIA, please

[@aksharma4304]

Happy Thoughts

[@madeinireland2383]

I had stopped taking a statin and informed my doctor and he is a consultant cardiologist informed me that I was more or less crazy and said LDL cholesterol in his experience is the leading cause of heart disease and stroke , he wanted to put me on another one but prescribed me a non statin to reduce it .

[@PiyushKumar-ru6io]

Don’t base everything on the opinion of one Doctor. Please look if there are counter to Dr. Malhotra’s opinion.

[@brendahunter9134]

What was the non statin?

[@marionsanta2883]

Probably Niacin

[@maggiegarber246]

I couldn’t get my cardiologist to say I didn’t need a statin, so…I started cutting the tablets in half. Probably won’t help but I would rather do that than continue to take a whole one.

[@joanne4850]

So if someone has familial cholesterol and it’s high, with the same levels of cholesterol as someone without familial cholesterol, are they more at risk by the very nature of it being in the family?

[@lmyers9999]

It’s the clotting factor in genetics … has nothing to do with cholesterol.. study came out last fall

[@abduraghmaancharles2318]

@@lmyers9999 : share the link to the study please

[@-What-are-your-thoughts]

@@lmyers9999…. What’s study is that, I would like to read it.

[@DanisaQ]

43 yrs old my high cholesterol is hereditary they say. Recently put on medication, so finally saw cardiologist to get test done, to see if I've had any issues/problems due to having high cholesterol. Stress test, ultrasound of heart and ultrasound of bilateral carotid were done, turns out both arteries are 50-70% block. My terrible cardiologist doesn't want to help with the issue until 6months and do another ultrasound.(ins purposes I suppose$$$) I've made changes to my diet by doing vegan and vegetarian diet and continue to take staint, Waiting to see another cardiologist for second opinion. 😢

[@brummiejojo]

Good luck. 😊

[@abduraghmaancharles2318]

Look into Nattokinase

Why not go on the diet that REVERSES heart disease? Research Dr. Caldwell Essylsten.

[@lmyers9999]

Low carb get D to 100 ng and take b vit to sleep in REM sleep to repair - and take 5000 vit k2 and 1000 K1

[@lmyers9999]

The familial hyperlipidemia is not the problem- it’s the clotting factor gene!!

[@Abdul-Y]

if high cholesterol is not a cause of heart disease, what explains less incidence of heart disease in people with genetically low cholesterol ?

[@georgecav]

Association is not causation. That is for honest and capable researchers to establish but inflammation is often touted as a main driver and then having higher cholesterol becomes an issue because there are more particles for the inflammation to affect

[@Kk-bq8sw]

Are there two types of LDL?

[@oliverstcool21]

There is two types of cholesterol. LDL and HDL. LDL is considered the bad one, and HDL is considered the good one

[@Kk-bq8sw]

@@oliverstcool21 small particle and large particle LDL

[@Mat-fw1ky]

LDL particles can be large and ‘fluffy’ which is better than small dense LDL particles that are more likely to stick to your arterial walls. Their are tests which determine which of more you have.

[@Kk-bq8sw]

@@Mat-fw1ky that’s correct, the answer I was looking for!

[@Kk-bq8sw]

@@oliverstcool21 no talking about the large and small particle LDL!

[@clarkbrechin7970]

FH is people with an LDL of at least 4.9m/mol???? That's not even high!

It's completely true what he said on the BBC recently - I'm my paranoid schizophrenic brother's unpaid life carer ... Yesterday he got a rare " how are you doing" phonecall from head doctor at his local doctors.. ... My brother mentioned some things & he replied " ok I'll get the girls to make an appt to see me & I'll have you some bloods done " .... His appointment came through But not with himself or Any doctor Only the nurse... .... He left his comfort zone & safe place & turned up to the doctor's & the nurse didn't have a single clue about doing Any blood tests 🤔🤔🤔 .... But what she did do is to take his blood pressure (like normal) & then said how it was high ( like it's been for years when tested ) ..... Then she left & came back with a take home blood pressure machine and said test yourself for a week & don't worry if it is high we have a medication you can take for that 👍 ...... Don't tell me that his visit was NOTHING more than to get someone pop statins because of the COVID jab , Regardless of whether they need them or not 🤔 In ALL the years of having high blood pressure they've NEVER offered my brother a machine to suddenly take home... That call to my brother was NOT A " HI HOW ARE YOU, BECAUSE I CARE " telephone call .

[@byculla6]

Sounds like if we follow your 'Why don't doctors tell you to eat ...XYZ' instead of the medications? ... 'Cos you may all be out of work!! Sorry!
