Dr. Paul Mason - 'Why your doctor thinks cholesterol is bad - Big Pharma deception'

Dr Paul Mason obtained his medical degree with honours from the University of Sydney, and also holds degrees in Physiotherapy and Occupational Health. He is a Specialist Sports Medicine and Exercise Physician.
Dr Mason developed an interest in low carbohydrate diets in 2011. Since then he has spent hundreds of hours reading and analysing the scientific literature.
For a number of years, Dr. Mason has been applying this knowledge in treating metabolic and arthritis patients who have achieved dramatic and sustained weight loss and reductions in joint pain. Dr. Mason has recently become the Chief Medical Officer of Defeat Diabetes.
Defeat Diabetes is Australia's first evidence-based and doctor-led program that focuses on the wide range of health benefits of a low carb lifestyle, particularly for those wanting to send into remission pre-diabetes, type 2 diabetes, and other metabolic illnesses.
Founded by Dr. Peter Brukner OAM with support from a medical advisory panel of doctors and dietitians, the Defeat Diabetes Program is delivered via a mobile app. It provides 100+ hours of video from health professionals, masterclasses, cooking demonstrations, recipes, a meal planner, and a rich library of resources, with new content regularly added.
Created by Australians, for Australians, the Defeat Diabetes Program simply and effectively enables Australians to take control of their pre-diabetes and type 2 diabetes.

After some poor response from my Dr. about me not wanting any statins, I came up with a solution. I would just take the bottle and the problem was solved. A couple months later the dr. Wanted to follow up with my high cholesterol. My LDL WAS down 60 points but my HDL WENT Up a full 10 points, she said that’s fantastic,so are you happy you took the statins? I said I never opened the bottle and she was done talking to me. 😎

My late father was a GP who retired in 1993. He was adamant throughout his medical career that Cholesterol was the biggest health lie of the 20th century, and he said butter was the best thing of all time, and that a tiny little bit of toast under your butter was acceptable. Most people thought he was a bit mad - but it turns out that he was right all along. Thanks, Dad!

[@nickjohnson811]

I now make a yummy keto bread using lupin flour, wheat gluten, and oat fiber, so don't have to feel guilty about bread on my low carb diet, which has reversed my Type 2 diabetes and allowed me to shed 75 pounds back to my age 25 weight.

[@ZacksRockingLifestyle]

@@nickjohnson811 I think one of the best parts of keto/carnivore, for me, is that I’ve never been a big fan of bread other than tortillas. Now I just throw my meats in a bowl instead.

[@scoobtoober2975]

I was pre-diabetic and didn't feel good a few months ago. I'm resurected based on these findings and all the other dr's promoting the right thing now. OMAD and eat the heck out of some butter, cream, beef and pork. Oh how my skin glows and all of my ailments have gone away. I cringed as a kid when i saw this fat guy slather butter on his toast and couldn't see the bread below. LOL. that is how he survived being that heavy. It was very protective.

[@dorseykindler9544]

Amazing how some people have the courage to stick to their intellectual guns when virtually everyone is telling them they’re wrong.

[@lisawanderess]

I’m showing this to my GP! I have always had high cholesterol and a few years ago was told I’d need statins when my cholesterol hit 7.2 the doc said I was “a heart attack waiting to happen”. I said I’d prefer to try changing my diet. Did WFPB vegan for a year, got cholesterol down to 5.4 but ended up with an exacerbation of RA for which I was taking biologic meds, suffered really debilitating interstitial cystitis, vertigo, TMJ, night sweats, itchy skin, brain fog, terrible anxiety, sensory sensitivities, hair loss… so after countless inconclusive tests and scans another GP suggested I try carnivore diet. It reversed all symptoms. I no longer take medication for RA and have had no flares. I went back to the first doctor recently who ran a full blood panel and freaked out at my 10.6 cholesterol reading. Basically told me I’m going to die if I don’t change my diet back to WFPB. Even after I pointed out that my blood pressure is low, my weight in the healthy range, I don’t smoke or drink and walk an hour a day, my glucose levels and all nutrients were optimal, my CAC score was 0, my CRP and ESR well under healthy and, in fact, now lower than they were when I was on biologic immunosuppressive drugs and eating a zero fat vegan diet and my triglyceride measures 0.6!!!! 😮 He’s telling me: “Nobody walks around with a cholesterol level of 10.6” Yet here we are, doc…. Here we are! 😂

[@duststorm7287]

I finally found a doctor that knows cholesterol levels mean nothing. I'm strict carnivore and he approves of my high cholesterol. He looks at insulin levels, HDL and tryglicerides along with my thyroid and testosterone. I'm 66 and he marked A+ on my bloodwork sheet. I'm stoked!!! He also called me athletic....yet I really only trian once a week. And I was once 400 pounds and dying. Now no meds and really don't need a doctor at all. Meat heals.

[@mottgirl13]

[@leeuniverse]

Yes, but you should NOT be Carnivore long-term... There are multiple health issues related to it, especially destroying your Liver due to high Iron. And this happens very quickly in just a few years (see Frank Tufano for example who was a big carnivore, but ended up hurting his liver, and he's a young guy). The "ideal" diet when you're already "healthy" is eating essentially the foods of a "Salad Bar". You get some meats and some carbs. Then you eat heavy meats like twice a week, a steak, a fish, etc. You intermittent fast, drinking a ACV concoction in the morning (Water, 2 TSP of ACV, Unsweetened Cranberry Juice, 1/4 Lemon, and Honey), and then you adjust your carb intake according to how much exercise you get. You basically want to naturally be low-carb then on occasion go into Ketosis due to your activity level. This is the most healthy state for a person... Veganism, Carnivore, Keto are all ways to "cleanse" and resolve certain health issues, or to lose weight (last two best for that). They are NOT the ideal "permanent" eating state. I've seen it over and over again, both Veganism and Carnivore, no matter how "perfect" they were at it, causing serious health issues long-term. You can find MANY videos on this on KZbin. Keto however IS still healthy and can be done long-term, but I still don't recommend it because it's "hard" on the body, and we aren't entirely sure the further long-term effects. You're essentially mimicking a "starvation diet", one you would have if you were force to live in the WILD in which you eat only meat, berries, and plants. For example, if you look at Thomas DeLauer or Dr. Berg, you see they have "divots" in their cheeks. That's a sign of starvation. Anyway, just an FYI from my study and experience. I'm trying to get Mikhaila Peterson to now change her diet since she's resolved her health issues, but I'm just somebody on the internet, so she may not even see my comments, but I don't want her having NEW health issues that she needs to deal with due to eating "Beef" ONLY. First that's really bad, because when you're carnivore to be close to healthy you need to eat the ENTIRE Animal, and second, there's the other potential issues, Iron overdose, etc.

[@chargermopar]

@@leeuniverse I have been on what they call a low carb diet for over 30 years, eat beef every day. I used to eat oameal, whole grains, etc but eliminated all those foods over the decades due to digestive issues. Some days I am full carnivore other days more vegetarian. I have maintained the same weight since college and have no grey hair at all and look younger than my age. It is a simple diet free of any processed foods and one with spinach, purslane, some tropical fruits, burro plantains, celery, tomatoes, broccoli, cauliflower and coconuts from the garden. Chicken, iguana, Muscovy Duck also from the yard when possible. Have not been to a doctor in the 21;'t century yet so I have no idea if I would pass a physical or not. But blood pressure is lower than anyone else I know and I have no aches or pains and lots of energy.

[@tohopes]

how many eggs and how much liver do you eat? what about oily fish?

[@Oli4Post]

Yesterday I saw a befriend young doctor for a long time and she was surprised about my metamorphosis. So I told her. I lost 20kg in 5 months on OMAD and Keto. She wasn't real happy, a little sceptic (information bias? confirmation bias?). Then I told her I threw out all seed oils and eat meat and saturated animal fat (bacon, butter, eggs). Now she began warning me! I should go to my GP immediately and check my cholesterol! And everything else I did was effectively wrong. Strange because she began with a compliment and when the answer didn't fit her narrative, I was bad. The literal proof of my right, me, was standing in front of her and she didn't see it!

[@vaska1999]

Except in the most general sense, medical students are no longer taught how to assess the health status of a patient by examining his/her body. Last winter I spent a couple of months in Sri Lanka, where I went to Ayurvedic clinics for some treatments. The doctor who examined me was able to detect knee problems simply on the basis of reading my pulse. Our skin, eyes, mouth, muscle tone, all of them give clear signs to a properly trained practitioner of the state of our health. Medical schools today teach mostly which tests to prescribe, how to read those test results (often based on figures devised by medical organizations with financial links to agriculture, food and pharmaceutical industries), and what drugs to prescribe for which lab profiles.

[@Layla-df7hp]

​@@vaska1999 Although I don't understand or have much faith in the pulse reading, I still really admire Ayurveda for the other reasons you mentioned. Their descriptions for symptoms (in respect to the 3 doshas: vata, kapha, pitta) are so interesting to me and I believe they helped me understand my body better. Western medicine is disappointing in comparison but we still have doctors like Dr. Paul Mason among others. In my opinion, Western/Eastern medicine both have their pros and cons and I'm looking forward to seeing more of Ayurveda in future literature.

I’ve spent at least a decade waffling over doing nutrition, because I hate dietics so much and don’t want to be part of killing people, I’ve never done it. I can’t ethically be part of that. I might just BS my way through holistic nutrition (usually very vegan friendly) and then promote carnivore. Interestingly I worked with a really good looking girl, most of them were cause they were waitresses. She got into the nutrition program at the university (a huge one in Canada) near us. Became part of the dietics system. She packed on weight and became super bloated over two years… it was bad. She was obviously very indoctrinated.

[@akaitv6606]

I studied physics at the University of British Columbia, Canada, graduating with a B.Sc. in 1971. I've had multiple careers, but at all times I strove to trust the observations/measurements I made over my {or others'} opinions, & to consciously acknowledge my tendency to fall into mental traps of cognitive dissonance . This has paid off in spades - in collaboration with others I have designed & built instruments presently in orbit around the Earth & others that reside 3 or 4 km deep in multiple oceans around the world. Even without a formal Ph.D, I have been honoured to be named as a co-author of over a dozen published, peer-reviewed papers in the field of geophysical instrumentation. Facts matter, and objectivity must take priority over opinions & old wives tales. Thank you, Dr. Mason, and all your associates, for shining light on medical/dietary truths & for being willing to risk your reputations by always following the best evidence. Your collective recommendations to eat butter, lard & other animal {saturated} fats while shunning not only trans-fats but most seed oils has {mostly} restored my waistline to its youthful dimensions, eliminated my GERD, and presumably continues to keep me relatively healthy now at age 73. Keep up the good work, sir!

[@HeatherLikesArt]

It is all so very wrong. These doctors are meant to have taken an oath "to do no harm". But they're willing to put a person under anesthesia and cut them open rather than the patient find a less invasive way to get well. For them to get angry about a patient getting healthy by their own means shows where their motive is for becoming a physician. It's not because they want their patients to be well, they see sick patients as a money making business, if the patient gets well on their own by finding alternative treatments then they lose money. It is pretty scary and disgusting that is how they work. I have been oil pulling for a while and I haven't seen the dentist yet since doing it but I have no intention of divulging that information to the dentist. If he notices any improvement with my oral health I will just play it off. But I'm not mentioning oil pulling. I also do intermittent fasting. I don't say anything about that either to my doctors. They'll just give some reason as to why it's not a good practice and do some fear mongering. I pick and choose what I tell these health "care" people.

I grew up in the 80’s and can distinctly remember lots of talk about cholesterol. The medical community was bonkers about it. I remember our family doctor getting my Dad to switch to eating egg beaters vs real eggs because his heart would “explode” lol. He didn’t lose any weight. In hindsight he was probably eating too much sugar and carbohydrates. I’m the age he was now when he was going through this and eggs are a staple in my diet and I am in better shape than I was in my 20’s. The food pyramid is BS.

[@cbagot]

The food pyramid was a document between big food and the government. Heard this from Dr Mark Hyman on a video series he did about 5 years ago. I think all the carbs they push relate to what the government subsidizes and where the corporations make profit.

[@nickjohnson811]

After years under an endocrinologist's care for Type 2 diabetes using loads of insulin, I switched to a keto diet and was able to drop all my insulin while bringing my blood sugar down to normal range. In my last visit to the endo doc, I asked why he didn't recommend this diet to all his patients. He replied that he didn't think patients would tolerate it. I couldn't understand why he didn't at least give his patients a chance to try it. In my case, I've found it is very easy to stay on - I'll take steak with Bearnaise sauce over potatoes any day. My wife only cooks keto, and she's regarded as the best cook among our acquaintances, who don't even know they're eating keto at our house.

I've always been telling my patients about the statin studies and present to them the 2 sides of the coin. One side is the recommendation of the AHA ( eminence) and the second side is the Evidence through NNT (number needed to treat),NNH (number needed to harm) and the BMJ systematic review on outcome postponement. Then I let my patients choose. I think that's the ethical way of practicing medicine.

[@caroliner2029]

Thank you so much for explaining this. I'm pleased to have found your channel. I'm a critical care nurse and I'm feeling some cognitive dissonance and wistfulness about the education that I gave patients (with only good intentions to help, empower & heal them), and the "research" that we were informed about, taught, & that guided my own health behaviours because integrity has always been important to me; I practised what I preached with regards to health & fitness, and eating to maximize health. I've never been "on a diet" but ate as unprocessed as possible, high fibre, and bought low-fat dairy products. I'm glad that I reverted to the lovely full-cream versions some years ago, and recognised that I felt better with them, enjoyed them much more, and had an increased sense of satiety and better sustained energy levels. I also cut out sugar. I think now about all of the statins I'd give to my cardiac patients, as per their hospital drug charts, thinking that I was part of a team that was saving and prolonging the precious lives of people. It's only now during the Plandemic (the Scamdemic) that I realise how much Big Pharma, Big Sugar, Big Food, etc are invested in maximizing their profits at the expense of everyone else. The 'Food Pyramid ' is part of that scam, and we had pictures of that pyramid on the walls in CCU.

I am one of those TOFI 56 male and was using lots of safflower oil with HDL always around 28. I hike a lot and run. I also ate a lot of carbs but no sugar in coffee or tea, and maybe twice a year a coke. I did like cakes and cookies 🍪 😋. But my doctor asked me after blood test if I liked sugar and I was shocked 😲. But no diet clues. My Triglycerides were also relatively high over 200. I stopped consuming alcohol, and Triglycerides dropped off to 150. But when I went practically keto, carnivore, my Triglycerides dropped to 89. Then my HDL were up to 60. From the research that meant my arteries were in good shape. My LDL was always high 230 , but this time it was 356. Doctor said it was high but I innocently explained my HDL/Triglycerides ratio and that the LDL was not broken down into particles A and B to determine if I was clogging arteries. Obviously, I was not based on the HDL. She twisted the conversation and said oh yes, cholesterol is important for protecting ourselves from infection and so on. ? I know that. And she brags about being a natural doctor and against vaccines sort of. I am vaccinated with pfizer. Not a big fan. Most people think fat is bad, but it depends on what kind of fat. Go for lard, butter, and so on. When I went LCHF the fatty tissue around my chest, man boots, melted and my stomach started to show a six pack. Without crunches .

History: I rode the entire Pacific coast of the USA in 2014, from Vancouver, BC to San Diego. I was 50 y.o. 2,300 miles. I was more fit than I was in high school. I thought I'd preserve my fitness by becoming vegan. I tried a vegan diet for over 6 months and became ill with autoimmune disorders. I was eating fruits and grains, beans and tofu, vegetables. I had for 10 years, stopped eating beef, eggs, deli meats. I returned to eating meats....chicken, pork, fish. And slowly added some eggs. My condition improved, but my perfect health never returned. In the subsequent years, I kept putting on weight. I was gaining belly fat. My waist went from 28" by the end of my ride, to ballooning to 36-37". I don't snack, don't drink soda or eat candy. No fast foods. But the weight and waistline kept increasing. Post Pandemic and recovery from Omicron....I made the decision to try the beef diet, saturated fat diet before Summer began. I cut out poultry, I had already stopped eating grains for breakfast and snacks, and switched to beef only. I ate 4 dozen eggs in this period too, fried eggs with rice became one of my go to meals. I also ate cheeses. brie, cream cheeses, ricotta, mozzarella. I made grilled cheese sandwiches with mayo, on artisan breads. I ate pasta...mac and cheese using cream cheese. Ate homemade pizzas. Had ice cream for a month. Cooked with coconut oil for a month. And beef tallow too. I cut out all refined vegetable oils in my foods and cooking. I switched to virgin olive oil for frying. By September my result has been the lost of over 4" of waistline. I didn't do any form of extensive exercise during this period either. Just normal everyday living. All the bloating, discomfort, gone! The fat in my belly has disappeared! My blood pressure is normal. I still ate 10 lbs of potatoes, 20 lbs of rice, 5-10 lbs of pasta and some bread during this period. I only ate beef, no pork, no chicken, no seafood. I also had little to no sugar intake. No fruits, just vegetables. Can you imagine if I ate no carbs and starches? I read the findings that the doctor elaborated on in this video, and it convinced me to change. As the alternative preached wasn't working. I plan to try the only beef for 30-days for my autoimmune disorder as per M. Peterson's experience, next. Conventional medicine has failed me. It's time to take one's health into one's own hands. It has worked for me!

Same here. Over the last few months I cut out all the rubbish, stopped eating low fat & “healthy” sunflower/seed oils, massively reduced carbs, increased plant diversity for my gut, have fermented foods & do IF. I still eat meat, fish & dairy. Lost a stone so no longer overweight & reduced joint pain. Hopefully also reduced my chances of T2D which is in my family. I do have high cholesterol & was briefly on a statin 3 years ago but couldn’t tolerate them. With what I know now I would never take them. Thankfully I don’t take any meds at 60+.

I've been on "recommended" low calorie, low fat diets since 1973. Each time I lost weight only to end by being tired, and hungry and giving up only to find that my baseline weight rose above the old level. Steadily I have got bigger and bigger, losing and gaining. By December 2021, age 62, I was prediabetic, with CAD, on seven medications, and weighing 254lbs. In January I started LCHF, with intermittent fasting. Eight months later I am 210lbs, my A1C is back to normal, and I have stopped 4 medications. Now I no longer have heart pain, and am feeling good. My HDL is up and triglycerides are down. My LDL is high and the doctors want me to go back on statins. I told them no way. I've never lost this much weight before and its never been this easy to lose it. Carbs drive hunger, and doing KETO makes it possible to only have one meal a day without cravings. I cook real food, and never have anything out of a packet.

"Taking statins would help diabetic patients live longer." Regardless of the actual results from the study, this mindset in itself is another issue I have seen in modern doctors. More set on increasing the longevity of a patient's life, rather than the quality of it. Along with the fact that a lot of doctors and pharmaceutical companies are more concerned with handling the symptoms of a patient, rather than the direct cause of those symptoms.

[@agapelight4240]

Good luck finding a doctor who doesn't prescribe statins. Doctors risk lost of a job and law suits if they break with "standard medical treatment". When that happened to me, I just explained to my doctor that my HDL and LDL ratio is good and my triglycerides are not high, which means my total cholesterol is not the most important factor. Furthermore, I told him, I read cholesterol lowing drugs have really bad side effects, probably because they interfere with many cholesterols not just HDL. He noted, patient refuses statins and hasn't tried to dissuade me. I did the same thing with the damned Covid vax. If he had hassled me about any of this, he would never see me again, but he accepted my decisions. You have to realize doctors were taught bad info in school. He is a good, caring doctor. I think he realizes now the Covid vax has problems. Try to keep the lines of communication open. A good doctor will work with you.

I could never understand why LDL was demonized. As far as I can tell the sole reason for calling LDL bad cholesterol was the undisputed fact that it is found as a significant part of arterial plaques. To me that hardly seems conclusive that it is bad. The stuff is created by every healthy liver, something I'd hardly expect the liver to do if it were bad for us.

So the fact that I have LDL through the roof high is actually a good thing? I thought so. My relatives enjoyed longevity into their 90’s without any health problems or huge lots of drugs. No one even heard of “cholesterol.” I always thought half these numbers were Huey. My temperature is always in the 97’s, so if it’s 98.6, I am sick! But tell that to a doctor or nurse! My blood pressure runs a bit high, but I think we high-strung Irish naturally have higher pressure. What are those drugs doing to us? I take 400 mg chelated magnesium. If that doesn’t do the trick, I’m staying high. I’m a bit over weight. Trying to lose it. But I refuse to skimp on fat. I never believed the fat lie. My toast gets butter, but I only have a single piece, two eggs from a local farm, avocado, and maybe some bacon.

[@supersonicdiesel4836]

Being a bit overweight and having high blood pressure are not good signs. Visceral fat, which I struggled with for years, until I went Keto and started fasting, is bad. It caused me to become a high diabetic, which got reversed through Keto and Fasting. Cut your weight down by eating a strict Keto diet, and ensure that your triglycerides stay low (preferably below 60) and HDL high (preferably above 40). You really don’t need to consider any other element of lipid profile of these two are in the ranges I mentioned above

[@kristinabruk8422]

Hi Christine! I think you are on a good track. One thing you could think of is this way: the fact that we are overweight is a symptom of something not quite right with our health, and especially if the weight continues to climb. High LDL may be beneficial in the context of a low carb, high fat diet. Even though your carbs are on the lower end compared to general population, perhaps you can try to take as much of the remaining carbs as you can, and see what happens to your weight and numbers. Don’t just take it out, replace with more of the good stuff - meat, eggs, etc. wishing you health and light! 🤗

[@geoffreystone1598]

50 years ago I worked in a food research facility. The facility was owned by one of the largest employers in that industry in Europe. The work was geared towards replacing oils and fats with carbs and sugars. There are more profits in the latter. The supply chain can produce, transport , store and retail sugar and carbs more efficiently. Once all the enzymes are removed the shelf life increases to the point where aliens will discover products when they come in centuries to come. The problem is that there is NOT enough grass fed meat on the hood and organic fruit and vegetables on the planet to sustain the population. Reducing the population has proved unpopular. The pharmaceutical industry wants the population to barely live and rely upon drugs and the medical industry to keep breathing. It’s their business model. How many drugs cure your ailments?

[@margomoore4527]

As demand for more grass fed beef increases, so the supply will increase. The people with greater means can get grassfed ribeyes and line-caught salmon, those with lesser means must make do with hamburger and tinned sardines for awhile until the supply Increases. The difficulty is with the political forces who don’t want ANYONE to eat meat! Small scale farmers are hampered with all kinds of regulations and rules that limit what they can do. Throw out even 70-80% of those regulations, and see how many of young farmers will get excited about regenerative farming (see Dr. Alan Savory’s work in how to reverse desertification)!
