As someone with PCOS (runs in both parents’ families), hypoglycemia and sensitivity to estradiol (mother), I have been a conundrum to the medical industry for decades! Those don’t go together! And, now going into menopause, everything I was doing to control the issues (which were working) has been turned on its head! I’ve survived at least two precancers. I give up. I’ve been working so hard for almost four decades that I’m exhausted with the treadmill we have out ourselves on. No generation before has been so messed up and worked so hard at it. I’m going to live my life and enjoy every day. Keep eating whole foods and trust that God has already numbered my days.

You got to keep trying cyanne pepper when cooking and olive oil on yr food after cooking. Eat spinach blend with cyanne pepper and turmeric reducing cans and cutting sugar can help intermittent fasting too up with vitamin c and try b1 vitamins

[@rochellefreeland4338]

Carnivore diet with FERMENTED fruits and veggies goes a long ways. Doc is corrected, insulin resistance is the culprit. Fasting is going to relieve your symptoms however, getting exercise in is a must, especially on a fasted system. I do my 20 minutes a day on my treadmill before I eat then wait an hour before eating. I also increase and decrease my intensity . I warm up 2 minutes. Then jog for a minute, walk a minute then I increase my speed and intensity for a minute then walk etc. i end at 19 minutes going all the way down to almost where I started. Sprinting is by far the best fat burning exercise you can do. You work up to it and surprisingly it is not that difficult. It is a min set. Force yourself to test yourself SAFELY! Best wishes!

I think the key factor here is the stipulation “ from their own land”. I believe our food system in America is toxic from the pesticide Glyphosate. The meat is loaded with hormones and antibiotics. Unless we eat organic produce and very clean meat, egg, dairy sources, our goose is cooked. Needless to say my food bill is astronomical , but I have no choice. I still don’t feel that great, but Im a lot better than I was. I eat only whole grains ( no flour so blood sugar doesn’t go crazy)and low meat . Im 65 and walk everyday too. All we can do is try. Good luck and God bless.

Better still, than `no meal' - Steamed vegetables mixed with microwaved chicken soup. Practically a no-fat meal, but all the nutrients and roughage you could ask for. Add to that, all the benefits chicken soup brings to the table - especially during the winter months. Scientists still have no idea why chicken soup is so beneficial. But it's a tried and trusted, easy meal, to prepare. And it really does work for re-charging the immune system and is healthy to a fault!

I had a CT scan (CIMT) 5 years ago when I turned 70. My LDL was >250, and i thought i was headed for disaster. I thought the only good CT scan score was zero! Then my cardiologist, told me the range is 0-400. You’re fine. Then I found out i was prediabetic! A good friend pointed my to modified keto, intermittent fasting and HIIT. Now five years later, i had another CT scan, it’s still 70! My HDL is 55, triglyceride 90, LDL still high but im 25 pounds lighter, resting heart rate 52, avg BP 120/70. I think I made the right decisions according to the above post. I will be 76 in 2 weeks, i feel great! Just spent 6 weeks in Europe on a motorcycle trek.

I asked my doctor about fasting. He said to forget about it and not to waste my time. I asked my cardiologist and a cardio vascular surgeon and they both told me that plaque cannot be removed. It amazes me that as doctors they don't take nutrition into consideration, knowing fully well that most diseases are caused by lifestyle choices. Surely they must know that our medicine doesn't cure anyone. Our US medicine is only to manage symptoms and nothing more. Of course it's great when it comes to emergency medical interventions, but it won't cure you of most chronic diseases. Funny thing is a vet will ask you "what are you feeding your cat/dog?'

[@cchemmes-seeseeart3948]

I surprisingly have found this to be true, for this reason. I'd notice I feel hungry. But sometimes, I was so busy, I decided just to 'wait' a bit to eat, until after I do a few tasks. Hour later, I realized the hunger had just disappeared, & if I had given in to it, I would have eaten food. This was a lesson for me. Drinking teas or coffee can help. And I like the idea mentioned in the video, of a 'sardines' fast: I think that would be the way to do it, especially since hunger could keep me awake at night or mess up my work.

[@pddellow]

I started intermittent fasting. Not eating before about 11 am and not eating after 6 pm. (I do have a cup of coffee in the morning and sometimes a glass of wine in the evening.) I also cut out most sugary and processed items. I have been doing this for about 4 months. I do not know my numbers, but I was somewhat healthy before I started. I did have a belly, weight 157 lbs and am 5'7". I was scheduled to have a knee replacement in a few months. Now, I weigh about 140 lbs, feel great, my BP is a bit lower, my activity level is much higher, I lost my belly and feel great!! I canceled my knee surgery and am able to play pickleball every day. (I also take cod liver oil for Omega 3's) IF has been extremely beneficial to me. I do not even feel that hungry at 11 am, my body has totally adjusted.

Yes fasting works wonders, I've fasted twice years apart, both times I fasted for the full 40 days and nights. It is very hard for the first 5 days, after the 5th day it got easy breezy, after fasting you should break the fast by eating steamed rice, or boiled eggs, with water. If you fast for to long it can cause a stroke due to lack of nutrients to the brain. Super bad junk foods are: Doritos chips, all brands of dry packaged noodle soups such as ichi ban, and Mr. Noodle. Pizza is very bad because of all the flour in it. High in protein meats. Coke a cola. Nick named the devil's treat because coke a cola go's with any metal of any country. Beers are bad for the liver, kidneys, heart, and brain. Deep fried foods, like nuggets french fries, deep fried fish, and chicken. Ice creams, and hot dogs, and hamburgers. The better that any foods taste the more deadly it gets. It's true that fruits and vegetables are much more healthy for you, and good water filtered.😇😇😇😇

Flaxseed chia seed and psyllium husks also a spoonful of each of those. However I have 25 to 49% plaque in my LAD. I am 5'10 and 163 lb.

Thank you for reminding me the power of water fasting. I did water fasting for 3 days in the past and it was the most challenging task but was rewarded with an aftermath amazing feeling. At the end of the fasting I felt so clean; imagine if you did not shower for many days and than you took a shower. I will try to fast on the 1st of every month and will start a 2 days water fasting. Since Jan 1st has passed, I will fast today and tomorrow to kick off my fasting. I will also clean up my diet (I love carb and my body does not handle carbs well) and will reduce and replace my carb with vegetables and meat. Most importantly, listen to your body. Everyone is built differently. By far, this is the best and no nonsense video. Much appreciated and thank you. Cheers to good health!

[@danguee1]

Mmm - all sounds a bit mystical to me. If I "listen to my body" I eat pizza, smoked sausage and sour gummies all day and never bother getting up off my backside. My recipe instead is to tell my body: "this is not negotiable: we're going to exercise and eat natural. Just do as you're told...."

[@lynnetterhall5713]

The truth is that fasting is first a physical experience but ultimately a spiritual one. If you were to continue fasting it would lead to death. So when we deny the flesh for a time it brings us closer to God. That feeling you get and like is the spiritual existence within each of us. Fasting as a way of life enhances our health and awareness and senses. G-d designed fasting for good conscience and natural prevention and healing for our health, body and mind.

Two years ago, i was taking metformin for type 2 diabetes and my blood pressure was 154/80. Following a terrible review by my doctor, i decided to do something about it. I identified, what i considered to be, the main culprits? - I loved pasties, cheese & onion rolls, quiche (with crust) pies and, worst of all, Croissants (mmmm!) Basically, foods with a high butter content (their casings, to be more accurate) I stopped eating THE LOT!!! But i did make one consession, CRUSTLESS quiche! One year later, my diabetes nurse told me that it was in remission and my blood pressure was 120/60. It was decided that i should use up the remaining metforming prescription, and not to take anymore from therein - some 5 months (without) Another year later and i still manage my diabetes, by diet only. My blood pressure was/is, still 120/60. Take cotrol of your own health - IT DOES WORK!!! And, i love my near-vegetable diet, and all those lovely herbs and spices!!!

[@fredgillis591]

the butter wasn't the culprit

[@shill6449]

Butter is high in saturated fat. Portion sizes are key here. I was consuming pastries on an industrial scale. I still add small amounts of butter, to say, breads, omlettes, mushrooms etc, but only enough to add taste. Croissants (which i USE to love) are particularyly high in Trans fats, sugar and refined white flour (Carbs, if you will) High in calories too, of course!! Similarly, pasty ingredients are right up there in the fats and carbs dept. I haven't given up on pastry-based products, altogether. I just treat them as, well, treats! I would say my consumption of pastry products is 98% down on what it was, two years ago - yes, THAT MUCH!! Do i miss all those lovely, scrumptious, lamb and mint pasties, cheese and onion pasties, cheese and onion rolls? You bet i do! But having one, now and again, is never going to do you harm - whereas i once would eat two in a day. Now it's more like one in a month! As a dietician once famously said, on tv. There's only one diet, and that's a balanced one. And definately not the fad diets, promoted by celeb's - they're been paid handsomely, for such nonsense!

[@fredgillis591]

@@shill6449 I do realize that butter is a saturated fat, but by itself your body would and will do an excellent job of regulating the amount you consume, the same goes for protein. Dr Adkins had all this worked out in the 1970's or 80's. if you sat down at the dinner table with a big slab of butter your body would never allow you to eat much at all! put that same amount in a bat of mashed potatoes and you will consume a very large amount of fat, it is the combination of fat and carbohydrate/starch that packs on the lbs. I admire that you can manage your bread intake so masterfully, it is something I currently struggle with. and with some of the things you mention croissants should only have butter as the fat, the same as brioche and most fresh French breads and pastries, now, I am not saying butter is a health food, just not as much a villain as health nuts make it out to be. It has such a strong flavor that a little goes a long way. you didn't say how much weight you've lost.

Dr Brewer this is one of your key videos. I used to have very poor oral hygiene but after having a stent at 55 I stated to investigate causes of heart disease one was related to oral hygiene. I now have my teeth cleaned three times a year, I brush with a Phillips sonic care tooth brush and floors everyday at night before bed. My teeth and gums are now in the best condition of my life. One thing I do that you don’t mention is I scrap my tongue. Tonge scraping removes a lot of bacteria from the mouth and promotes the growth of bacteria for nitric oxide production. Also you failed to mention not using alcohol or other types of mouth wash that kill the beneficial oral bacteria that also helps prevent decay and gum disease. The proper mouth biome is important too. I have made so many changes in lifestyle because of your channel. Thanks.

Great video from Dr. Brewer. Age 66 I became Vegan 2 years ago when i found out, despite what i thought was a very healthy lifestyle, my bad cholesterol was very high and then a heart scan revealed plaque in my arteries. Statin pills were given to me but after researching i stopped taking them after 30 days and I became a plant base eater ( 95% plant base due some fish, occasional meat bites and rare egg, no dairy product or rarely cheese ). My cholesterol dropped by 35% in 3 months and remain low. I exercsise 5/6 days per week for approx 60/90 min each session ( sometime less, sometime more), weight lifting, spinning, yoga, swimming, plus I I walk around 8000 steps daily. Having said that, even Dr Brewer is not a purely plant base eater ( which is fine) I completely agree with his approach and his view on fasting being the best meal to restore arteries, heart etc. His video is pretty clear and allow each person to adopt the right fasting approach which I also practice. Really great advises in his talk and I applaud him. Lets age in great health ❤ 🙏.

Doc. Brewer; just listening to you talk about these ideas, you sound like an awesome guy! I don't know when I'm going to meet our maker, my view is, it happens when it happens. And actually, the cleanliness of my soul is a whole lot more important to me than the cleanliness of my body. I used to be a health nut, working out 4 nights a week and again, another four hours on Saturday just because I enjoy working out! That's not to say that I don't care about my health; I do, it's just not been a priority for me once I started aging a bit. Now I'm pre-diabetic (or so my doc says, via test reports) and I'm quite a bit heavier (near 200lb) than I was when younger. Funny thing though doc, I feel better at my heavier weight than when I was a younger toothpick, go figure! Oh yeah; I really appreciate your mentioning how we should be eating, more salads, broccoli, cauliflower, protein, fish, red meat and white meat (and by white meat, I'm guessing you mean chicken). Fasting is something that I have never done; however, you have given me good indicators to start doing so, thank you! I'm going to try that "prolonged water fasting" idea first, meanwhile continuing to eat broccoli, cauliflower, red meat and chicken, all things I not only love to eat, but are healthy as well! Huh... go figure! All I need to do now is learn how to slowly fast on water, start my exercise routine again and stop eating those silly little candies of this sort or the other, those darn things are my downfall doc, I love the taste! Anyway; I subscribed to your jawing online because I find that you are not only interesting to listen to, you make good sense to me and you appear to me as a good soul, a person whom really cares about others... and in this day and age, you're a rare bear doc!

An ultrasound showed moderate plaque in my arteries. After six months of daily turmeric, neem, nigella seeds, selenium, Irish sea moss, nattokinase, green tea and dandelion tea (most of it is in Spike Support Formula but I took them separately due to cost) a followup ultrasound showed CLEAR arteries. I didn't change my diet or exercise routine at all. Fat comprises about 40% of my calories -- no transfats, just natural fats and oils. I cook most of my food myself. I also have a sugary treat everyday because I am a sugar addict.

Dr. Brewer - Best video yet! I so wish the cardiologists and lipid specialists would come up to speed on this stuff. I spent 6 months and 4 cardiologists to find one who actually somewhat entertained these concepts. Through your videos, I am actually educating doctors and dieticians. Some don't care for my lectures, but we have to fix the old thought process. I did end up with two stents in my RCA in December 2023 as I was 90% blocked at 55 (female so no one suspected I was headed for a dirt nap) BUT at least now I have the knowledge to prevent or slow down the plaque process through carb restriction.

You, sir, are the KZbin presenter who DID start the flood of interest in K-2, mk-7 as an arterial 'clean-out' vitamin along with vitamin D3. I downloaded your program on the subject. I like this presentation today, but I DO NOT appreciate, in my view, your apparent effort at revisionist 'history' on serious subjects like this one. You even made the claim that you had eliminated ALL plaque in your arterial system along with one other person, a patient I believe, who had shown a similar result, as best as off the top of my head I may recall. I have a verbal IQ of 190, a 'fund of information IQ of 190, and in my mid-twenties a score of 98% recall, all on the Weschler Inventory test; my other scores were quite high as well. Your program to which I have made reference, impressed me hugely in the context of my personal cardiac health at the time you made your presentation on vitamin D3 and vit. K-2,mk-7, and I have been taking that combination, along with other vitamins essential to the health of other bodily functions, as well. But your presentation(s) on K-2, mk-7 and D-3, again, were hugely influential for me including your showing on paper held up to the camera your test results! Today, you appear in my view to be engaging in all manner of surreptitious, tacit backtracking, and my trust and confidence in your representations feel violated by your representations on vit. D3 and particularly on vitamin. K2, mk-7. I thought writing you on this in the Comment section important enough to be made late for my effort to try to return to part-time work representing disabled folks et al. at the State Capitol here today, first day of our 2024 session due to feeling SO FURIOUS with your seeming 'turnabout' relating to the value of arterial health of Vitamin K-2 combined with vitamin D3 that you have previously made in my view, and, in my view your representations at that time were major and had a huge impact.

INSULIN RESISTANCE- that’s the issue causing these conditions. I’m “diabetic” currently following the ketogenic path. It probably started as a young teen with high carbohydrate intake. I was diagnosed 25 yrs ago. The culprit was eating processed foods, high carbs. I didn’t know 😢! Now at 61, Ive been able to get off humalog insulin, but still taking metformin. My calcium score was 189 about 3 yrs ago. I’m going to ask my doctor to order a CIMT next time. Great advice from this doctor!!

I’ve listened to a few of your videos, and I’ve avoided clicking, because I thought you didn’t answer what you said you were going to answer, but this time you went right down your outline, and answered the things you mentioned at the beginning, very well orchestrated and delivered. I’m in my eighth month of what most would consider extreme low-carb. My most recent lab results are in the Lein mass hyper responder category triglycerides in the 50s HDL 131, LDL 407 I’m 59 and have the body mass that I had at AJ 18 very lean very muscular And I’m an active climbing arborist. This was a very helpful video. I’m attempting to learn rapidly as I’ll be defending my position against the cardiologist that is shocked by my labs I’m attempting to manipulate my lab and was able to reduce my LDL from 429 to 407. That probably won’t impress the cardiologist.😃. Thanks for the great video.

[@GWGMJ]

Summary: The transcript primarily highlights the role of metabolic health in cardiovascular wellness, addressing common misconceptions and the importance of stabilizing artery plaque rather than simply aiming to remove it. Main Points: 1. Plaque Stability: Soft, inflamed plaque in arteries is more dangerous than stable plaque. Preventing plaque from becoming inflamed is key to lowering heart attack and stroke risks. 2. Common Misconceptions: High LDL cholesterol alone isn't a clear predictor of heart disease; insulin resistance and poor carbohydrate metabolism are more significant risk factors. Eating a low-sugar diet isn’t enough; refined carbs like bread and pasta also contribute to blood sugar spikes and plaque buildup. 3. Diet and Prevention: Emphasizes a diet tailored to individual carbohydrate tolerance to stabilize blood sugar and insulin levels, key for reducing inflammation and stabilizing plaque. Whole foods that are low in refined carbs are recommended, supporting a balanced metabolic state and helping to prevent “insulin resistance” or “insulin spiral of death,” a cycle of high insulin and sugar that worsens plaque. 4. Exercise and Testing: Resistance training is encouraged to support glucose metabolism. Carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) scans and inflammation markers can help track cardiovascular health and plaque stability over time. This approach highlights that the best “artery-clearing” meal isn’t a single food but rather a balanced, low-refined-carb diet that manages blood sugar and insulin, preventing inflammation and improving overall artery health. The recommended "number one meal" to clean out arteries in the transcript is actually not a specific food but rather fasting. This approach is emphasized for its role in triggering autophagy, a cellular cleanup process that removes damaged cell components, which can lower inflammation and improve arterial health. Key points on fasting include: 1. Autophagy Benefits: Fasting initiates autophagy, helping to clear out damaged cells and reduce inflammation, thus supporting healthier arteries. 2. Types of Fasting: Different fasting methods (such as prolonged water fasting or intermittent fasting) may be effective, though each person’s ideal fasting schedule varies. 3. Lifestyle Focus: A consistent, balanced approach to diet, including limiting refined carbs and maintaining metabolic health, is advised over relying on a single meal or quick fix. Ultimately, it’s not one specific food but a lifestyle that includes fasting and careful food choices that is suggested for arterial health.
