It is well documented that cholesterol has no correlation to heart disease. Heart surgeons have come out and said they looked at patients with high cholesterol thinking they'll find disease and find none and they've looked at patients with low cholesterol and found disease so there is no correlation at all. Also a study was done in 2009 in American hospitals where every patient that came in with heart disease had their cholesterol level checked and 137,000 had low cholesterol levels. We need so much cholesterol that our body makes it because your brain needs it to work. If you get put on a statin you brain can be effected that badly you can start loosing your memory. Also Statins stop your body making CoQ10 which your heart needs to work properly.

I’m 13 years old and I’ve had a high LDL cholesterol level for probably my whole life. I found out when I was five. My older brother was getting MRI tests because he developed much faster than kids his age. As part of the MRI tests, he got a blood test which revealed that he had high cholesterol (over 200). My parents decided to check my blood as well, and the results revealed that I had a high cholesterol level as well. We discovered that it was genetically passed on to my brother and me by our grandma. Last time I got a blood test (a bit over a year ago), my cholesterol level was at 240! I’ve been only eating whole wheat bread and pasta, low fat cheese and green vegetables ever since I first discovered that I have a high cholesterol. I try to maintain a healthy diet and exercise regularly. I’m also very skinny. Unfortunately, my cholesterol increases on its own since it was genetically transferred to me. Does anyone have any advice for me? Update: I got another blood test a couple months ago and my cholesterol levels went down to 206. Hopefully I can lower it even more.

Yes. See videos by Drs Paul Mason, Ken Berry and Eric Berg on this topic and any other health topics. This info in this video is out of date; wrong. Stop eating the grains, pasta, potatoes, rice and also beans and high glycemic fruits and veggies.. Berries are okay The food pyramid guide is upside down; it's wrong. Don't eat bad oils, which are in packaged foods. Don't eat seed oils, like canola and safflower. If you cut out the things I've listed you will likely do well on Ketogenic diet: half your plate will be good fats, 1 quarter moderate protein (not low fat) and 1 quarter low glycemic carbs, like Romaine and steamed broccoli.

Roni, just learn about the ketogenic diet. Check out keto diet vs plant based. There are some problems with plant based. You might find Mikhaela Peterson's talk about the carnivore diet interesting; see her updates on it too. Any diet you might do can be for a short term, of course. ( I think 4 to 6 months is a good trial run.) We live one day at a time, so don't be discouraged about never eating something you like, although after you learn more, you may change what you like. Eric Berg and others have recipes for replacing wheat and some other grains. They use almond flour and sweetners etc to make all kinds of things, cookies, pancakes, etc. The cauliflower pizzas from Costco are pretty good. What you eat can have more influence on your health than genes. See if you can find a video on this.

Cholesterol is made by all cells in the body with the exception of the red blood cells. Our liver makes bile from cholesterol to digest the fat we eat, therefore it comes full circle. If we take statins to stop making the cholesterol, what happens to the fat we eat? I've asked this of many doctors and (as yet) I've never got an answer.

Total cholesterol is useless for predicting risk of CV disease, so a TC of 250 wouldn't phase me one bit. However, a CAC score of 50 is concerning unless you're over 70 years old. Without taking measures to prevent further calcification CAC increases about 25% per year, which means that in 15 years your score will be around 1400.

Cholesterol is in your entire circulatory system. Why is there clogging of the ARTERIES close to the heart and not in the veins or capillaries in your nose, ear or knee? This is because the pumping of the heart can cause hairline cracks. Blood pressure is highest in this area. These hairline cracks are repaired by a sticky substance LP(a), to prevent from getting worse. Why don't animals have cardiovascular disease? Almost all animals produce large amounts of vitamin C in their liver. On average 35 mg/kg body weight. So we have to take at least about 3000 mg of vitamin C ourselves because humans cannot make vitamin C. You get strong collagen tissue, strong connective tissue, strong arteries. Hairline cracks no longer form and arterial plaque is removed and burned in the liver. Repair with cholesterol is therefore a consequence of a deficiency of vitamin C. So do not take statins, but vitamin C in a high dose: at least 3 grams, better: 6 to 10 grams Source: Cardiovascular disease and vitamin C (Dr. Rath Foundation)
@director23452 жыл бұрын
Amen to vitamin C instead of statins....when people realize that scurvy was caused by a deficiency of vitamin C, ... and scurvy was tearing the arteries so that they would bleed out (without vitamin C healing them). .....then atheriosclerosis is a form of scurvy that vitamin C could mend with collagen rather than cholesterol formining into plaque trying to patch it up...

Cholesterol essential for health: It is 30% of the cell membrane where it provides fluidity and transport functions; it is the precursor for the production of testosterone, oestrogen and Vitamin D. As dietary cholesterol is esterified it is very poorly absorbed in the gut and so has little effect on blood cholesterol. Therefore the body has to make most of the cholesterol it needs. The organ with the most cholesterol is the brain, which is why a diet high in saturated fats cures epilepsy.

There is good cholesterol (which goes up on a high fat diet) and 'bad' cholesterol and their ratio is more important. In any case Cholesterol is a poor marker for heart disease: half of all heart attacks occur in people with normal cholesterol, and over 60s with high LDL cholesterol live longer! In addition a ketogenic Diet reduces triglycerides, blood pressure, fatty liver, blood glucose, joint inflammation, body weight, increases HDL and reverses diabetes: all of which reduces risk of heart disease. But drug companies have a pill to lower cholesterol, statins. So cholesterol is focused on and Statins are forcefully promoted to make them the highest grossing drug in the pharmaceutical industry. Drug trials exclude patients who get bad side effect, and the trials that didn't show benefit were not published, and benefit is still low. Statins have harmful side effects like muscle pain and diabetes (which increases the risk of heart failure!)

You need a Ketogenic diet: half your plate should have good fats, 1 quarter moderate protein, 1 quarter low glycemic carbs, kale, Romaine, cabbage, steamed broccoli, cauliflower, etc. Cut out sugar, grains, potatoes, carrots, and high glycemic fruits. Most berries are okay. Eat eggs from free range, organic fed chickens, because those eggs have correct fatty acid balance, which is very important. Learn how IF, intermittent fasting, works wirh keto diet. If you must have sweets, bread, etc, see Berg recipe videos on how to make them. Cut out seed oils; learn why. Use virgin coconut oil, lard, butter ( from grass fed cows, if possible). No store bought salad dressings,, no sugary condiments Don't use milk nor half and half; use heavy whipping cream. This is how I dropped 30 lbs in less than 6 months over 2 years ago. And, get proper amount of sleep (see Berg on sleep).

My considerable internet research has finally paid off and recognized with extremely good facts to exchange with my friends and the world. Medical Doctors and Dermatologists said (HSV 1&2, Herpes zosters) do not have a medical cure because the virus is capable of hiding within the human cells. it remains protected from your immune system. Herpes isn't an incurable virus! your immune system has the tools to fight it back. But because it is able to lay dormant in protected cells, your immune system is unable to remove it from your body, But with strong reactive herbal medication, it is capable of getting rid of the virus gradually and totally from your body without any side effects, natural herbs kill the virus totally not just reducing the outbreaks. I just got my test result today after 7 days of using the herbal Medication and it came out Negative to both HSV 1&2.im so delighted I recommend this to anyone suffering from herpes virus. You can get natural Herbal Medication from Dr. Aloha contact him through his email: Alohaherbalhome@gmail.com or WhatsApp +1(202)871-3222,

All LDL is bad is simplistic nonsense. SOME LDL is very bad. Some LDL is actually good. I have high cholesterol HDL/LDL but my LDL is the big fluffy type. It’s the small dense LDL that is the problem. I’m 63, 180cm, 68kgs, 10% body fat, I eat very well, exercise regularly including two boot camps a week. I have no family history of heart disease or hypertension. But my total cholesterol is 7.0. And my new doctor wanted me to take statins. I said I would if I had a CAC Scan and it indicated developing plaque. As I expected, my CAC Score came back as ZERO. It’s about time the medical profession educated themselves on cholesterol. Most of them don’t know what they are talking about. An very significant percentage of people on statins should not be on them. Aren’t you sworn to “do no harm” doctor?

Please, eat good fats, but cut out sugar and high glycemic foods, including fruits, veggies, starches like rice, pasta, and potatoes. Berries are okay, but if trying to lose weight, avoid those high glycemic veggies also, like carrots. On ketogenic diet we eat good fats, which are needed by the body. Eating good fats is not the problem; it's the bad oils, the seed oils, like canola and safflower, and the sugar. Sugar damages your cholesterol. See Drs Paul Mason, Ken Berry, and learn how to eat a keto diet from Eric Berg. Just learn about this first.

Why do only arteries clog with cholesterol and not veins or small capillaries? Scurvy = No vitamin C in your diet. Symptom: Your blood vessels break and you bleed to death. Think of the sailor of the past. Scurvy of the heart = Just enough vitamin C from food. Symptom: Arteries around the heart are not strong enough to resist high blood pressure. Damage is repaired with cholesterol to prevent worse. After years of repair, your arteries become clogged. Enough vitamin C supplement of at least 3000 mg. per day gives strong and flexible arteries. Cholesterol is not needed as a repair agent. Cholesterol in your coronary arteries is broken down and burned in your liver. Source: Cardiovascular disease and vitamine C (Dr. Rath Foundation)

Eight hours, or rather less, from the last meal, in the bloodstream of a healthy individual there is mainly free fatty acids bound to albumin, HDL, (lb)LDL, a little VLDL, negligible IDL and traces of other lipoproteins and remnants. In really healthy people, HDL should contain up to 1-2% triglycerides or 15-30 times less than cholesterol. LDL contains about 5-6% triglycerides or 8-10 times less than cholesterol. Taking into account the fact that in the bloodstream and in a healthy fasting person there is little of the other lipoproteins, mine and the results of other on ketogenic diets, I estimated that the total blood cholesterol should be over 9 times higher than triglycerides, in percentage of mass or molar in mmol/L. As difference (and/or ratio) is greater, better is for health. Thus, the triglycerides have to be below 0.6 mmol/L (50 mg/dL). This, you will not find anywhere else now, except in my book "The First Bioregulation" in Macedonian language. ISBN 978-608-66828-0-4 Vlatko Popovski - Vladek Skopje North Macedonia

High cholestral Having high cholestral does not automaticly mean it bad. The ratio of bad to good is more relevant than the levels but NHS does not test for good and bad due to expense and some people have naturally high cholestral. Ps research evidence discludes personel testing and assesment, family history, a good old school GP know's you knows the family and looks at family history; not to day we are accessed by software and the information these are based on are not personel and flawed especially as GP are not trained to analysis statistical data ( and recently disclued "incidental reactions" which are very high; google it)and is more relevant to cost control and if not monitor on statins, can causes muscle wasting also listed as a minor side effect joint pain(to me that is disgusting joint pain in the ederly is serious and medical professionl should be putting there best foot forward not acting as tho these effect are minor! Worsing of arthrities and in so doing effecting people living on there own are independent puts them at high risk of isolation, higher risk of accidents. My opinion if your cholestral levels are high it worh investing a few hundred pounds to have a better analyis and if you can afford it. Have your vascular system check out with dye and a scan. I have a reguritating heart valve and caught an infection/virus before covid was recognise in this country leading to secondary effects. Inflamation of the Pericardium and tempoary kidney failure; recovered really quickly big up to st georges check out my vascular system with dye and various scans said it good no blood thinners anti inflamatory and overtime the inflamation reduce. they could not figure out what caused it. round 2 different hospital afib cut along story short, i am allergic to Knickel quite sensitive advise to give up smoking poundland nice nickel and chrome plated vapour gun the dulux model, more then likely did this as soon as i stop vaping and nicotine patches i never afib again(spent a bit extra on a bp machine that test for afib but i haft to wear a long sleeve shirt as i am allergic to the moden sensor cuff HAHAHA did not see that coming. All drugs will cause problems the longer your on them, so there are more drugs to counter this eventually you do die. This is the point- Quality of Life versus life time or living longer b we feed the industry(Pharmacy) based on fear of dying; but they have not invented a drug that with lengthen your life, most drugs tken for long enough will causes other illness. i prefer common effects- based on time and there again all drugs get pulled before death so there never away to pin down causes alowing the more dangerous drugs to slip through the net for decades. An autopsy is never based on a person life it based on cause of death when some one at end of life there not on any medications except painrelief and usually that consider a cause of death as well ridiculous. Fact i was prescrib blood thinners on a just incase principle based on computer satistic even tho my blood flow is excellent all because they could not find a solution. Blood thinners eventually cause the vascular system to fail in various ways. i cant remember the exact figures but at 15 years it fucked so just in case i would more than likly be dead when ther nothing wrong with vascular system it would how ever slowly breakdown costing the NHS more money. I do have increase risk of heart attacks. I have just made it to 60 years i am a recovering addict, i stop smoking clean now no nicotine or vapour(nearly killed me HAHAHA) but the point is i had a good run. I now don't drink, dont smoke. Swoopt my blood medication based on echo grams so i am on candestatin wich help relieve pressure on my heart so i am grateful for mysterious virus that for two years has caused me a lot of worry and problems but through personel investigations have come to the conculsion emergency service are wonderful our staff in the NHS are brillant. My partner is a senior nurse of 30 years service we had many debates and i feel sore, it hurt's when hit with frying pans continously(just kidding) PS i am not against these drugs but the pharmacy nurse did not even discuss lifestyle changes WHAAATTTTT. so i did it for her and thing is nobody can force you to take anything so i said i keep an eye on it. i regularly have blood test i am not told too but because of medical history 2 monthly bloodtest are a good idea my surgery agrees. i have osteoarthritis. i regularly read my medical test on my patient app and give indepth breakdown on the results from this I educated myself round inflamation markers and point things out to doctors to help(really hehe incase they missed something) left hip replacement. multiple disc degeneration in lumbar(i practice;QI GONG , ZHANG ZHUANG(post standing) very good for vascular system and exstensivly used in chinesse hospital for multitude of disorder including cancer, immune disorders, osteoarthritis etc. ingural hernia had op flat feet yes it is a medical disorder as effects all your joints and make you more prone to arthritic conditions later in life(discovered too late)hehe not funny. divertiticulitis. several knackard joints stomarch still under investigation praying it not cancer. I have work at the royal marsden so my mother and reality check so no what to expect. dyslexic found out when i was level 3 councilling studies 56 years old then thought i was going insane as a kid this had a massive knock on effect to anxiety, stress and i had well meaning teachers classing me as slow. went back to basic english 2014 learn to read write and pronunuce started a marster in addiction phycology and realised i did not need it!!! (billy big bollocks, flash git). i hate to say this but there is only one method that appeals to me and it a 12 step process( at uni we called it the minnesota model) on a daily bases. when i stop doing it daily i am the best thing since slice bread hehehahaha YES HE IS INSANE. along with cbt, tht etc and many many more but everybody recognising the spiritual concept as being the missing link. listem to tolle if you let the mind lead your life THE PAIN BODY WILL MAKE YOU SUFFER, but trying to constantly live in the now is a real pain too i went off track sorry (dyslexic the book out tomorrow) don,t get me wrong these drugs are nesscesary but not the way there prescribed, follow up, accessed by computer software with over stretch and under staffed and under financed very good people. so the point as i mentioned earlier is to put your hand in your pocket and get it right... if you can't afford it ... id start by laying guilt trips on your siblings...no seriously we have been trying to avoid paying for anything and letting the gov dictate but it comming AAAAAAARRRGGGGHHHH medical insurance as part and parcel of everything just like the water bill we all use it we all drink it some of us need help with paying it but some how we get it.
