It’s Triglycerides Stupid: Lets Stop Focusing on LDL-Cholesterol (SCIENCE)

[@RonaldKragnes]

0:00 Elevated triglycerides are linked with cardiovascular disease, atherosclerosis, and sudden death. 1:45 LDL lowering drugs do not affect triglycerides. 3:41 Triglycerides and remnant cholesterol are associated with the formation of plaque in vessels throughout your body. 5:45 Total cholesterol minus HDL minus LDL helps you determine your remnant cholesterol. 8:00 Lifestyle changes, fenofibrate drugs, and omega-3 fish oil reduce triglycerides. 11:20 Triglyceride-rich lipoproteins promote inflammation and adhesion. 12:00 High triglycerides (fasted and non-fasted) are associated with a higher risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. 13:00 High non-fasted triglycerides are associated with an increased risk of myocardial infarction and death. 14:40 Increased triglyceride concentration is associated with a 37% increased risk of cardiovascular disease. 16:30 Statin trials excluded people with high triglycerides. 18:00 Statin-treated patients still had elevated high-risk triglycerides. 19:00 Omega-3 fish oil, myoinositol, walking after meals, compressing your feeding window, and limiting processed foods lower triglycerides.

Eating ketogenic diets drastically lower Triglycerides

[@The80shilling]

Most of what you are saying is completely spot-on! I struggled for years to get my Cholesterol levels in line; I had extremely low HDL (39) fairly high LDL (162) and Triglycerides at 114. I got a new cardiovascular doctor, who was willing to actually listen to me, answer questions, and tell me when he didn't know the answer to one of my questions. My HDL especially was completely stubborn and refused to move at all, no matter what medications he tried, my LDL was slowly budging, but not significantly. We went from 80mg of Atorvastatin, to 40mg, to 20mg, and my numbers didn't change, so we both agreed that statins weren't doing much, since changing doses did almost nothing. I asked him if he'd be open to an experiment, and give me 3 months of trying something different, and he was ok with that. I went on the OMAD (One Meal A Day) diet, I started eating 3 tins of Sardines every week, I didn't change my exercise/Mountain Biking, but most importantly, I started taking 2,000mg of Niacin per day (Niacin has been shown to significantly increase HDL and decrease LDL, but even more interestingly, it has been proven to reduce Triglycerides by up to 40%.) 3 months later, I got a blood test, and 2 days later, my cardiologist called me and basically said "WTF did you DO?". My results are below: From: 08/10/2018 To 4/6/23 Name 8/10/18 10/12/18 1/4/23 4/6/23 Cholesterol, Total 166 149 133 123 Cholesterol, HDL 38 L 42 42 63 LDL Cholesterol 162 121 74 48 Triglycerides, serum 114 148 84 52 VLDL Cholesterol Cal 12 As you can see, my numbers DRASTICALLY changed! In 3 months, I had a 50% increase in my HDL which hadn't budged in almost 11 years, a 48.65% decrease in my LDL levels and a 38% decrease in my Triglycerides. All of that was due to Sardines and Niacin and maybe the OMAD. My numbers continue to be stellar, although it has been suggested that now my overall cholesterol number is too low now. Overall, I made a few tweaks to my diet by cutting down on carbs (I still eat them, just not in the quantities I used to) and only drinking beer/cocktails and eating dessert at the weekends. Simple changes have produced incredible results.

@@djohn9737 I never said I ate low fat, I just lowered my saturated fat. My fat intake varied all along the way. Also, a contributing factor is that it matters how long you were obese for. I was an obese child starting at 10 years old and extreme yo-yo’d up and down all my life until my 30’s. I do have some loose skin around my middle, breasts and upper arms where I carried the majority of my weight but it’s nothing like I’ve seen on some people who were my size but I also gained 10 lbs of muscle over the last couple years.

But kind of contradicts Dave Feldman as well and not as specific as Dave's studies. The studies in this video are performed with general population eating standard diets with mixture of fats, proteins and carbs. Mike's trigs rise when he drinks coffee with pure fat (his glucose stays constant), but most of these people probably had rising glucose and trigs after eating, which is different and wasn'tt measured. Probably Dave can study trigs in his next studies to see how it works in healthy keto people :)

I said no so she wants to know what I know about cholesterol. After saying my piece, she was quiet. Asked her for a CAC scan. Did not know what that was.

I had a Heart attack 3 years ago, stent fitted, 2 weeks later I had a second heart attack because the anti coagulation drug didn't work a clot formed in the stent, My Doctors and heart support team didn't tell me any of this information, they told me it's hereditary and I would have to take a statin, my ldl was 5.5 at time of heart attack, no high blood pressure, So they put me on 2 beta blockers, 2 blood thinners, Statin, Ramaprill, Dapaglifolzin, aspirin, told me to avoid saturated fat and red meat, and dairy, eat breakfast witch I never did before , I left hospital 106 kilos, ate cereal for breakfast with oat milk, and followed the recommended diet, walked 2 miles every day, stopped smoking, no alcohol, 3 months ago my weight was 113 kilos! Felt like an old man, I'm 53, I felt so unwell I went to bed every night hoping I would die in my sleep! So after looking up the side effects of statins I came across the Keto and carnivor way of eating and the danger of suger and carbs, so 3 months on ive dumped the Statin and been eating ketovor, I now weigh 100 kilos and feel like i am 30 again, I just can't believe that the medical profession is still giving poor advice and putting people at risk.

No auto-immune issues and nice and slim. I go to gym but do smarter-not-harder exercise, and never break a sweat or strain my muscles at all, I am just slightly stronger than non-exercising.

@0:40 Wheat thins and Cliff Bars are not "low fat" or "high carb". Wheat thins have over 30% of total calories from fat and Clif Bars have over 20% of total calories from fat. The issue is that most people are clueless when it comes to spotting actual high carb foods (80% or more of total calories from carbs). Some examples: rice is high carb, pork fried rice is not; peaches are high carb, peach ice cream is not; bananas are high carb, banana splits are not; farrow wheat is high carb, wheat thins are not; steamed potatoes are high carb, french fries are not. Nobody is becoming obese or has high cholesterol because they are living off of rice, bananas, and vegetables. They are becoming obese because they are clueless (like this video maker) when it comes to spotting foods that are actually high carb. Moreover, triglycerides are a second tier risk factor for heart disease. Dean Ornish proved decades ago that heart disease can be reversed despite triglyceride levels increasing. I'm shocked that someone making a video about heart disease prevention would not know this.

I looked into "Fasting Compared With Nonfasting Triglycerides and Risk of Cardiovascular Events in Women" as well as into "Triglycerides and risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease: An update: right now. There is no mentioning what "non-fasting" actually means. They seem not to ask what people eat before the blood work. I know it's probably my bias, but these are still probably generally people who eat standard diet with mixture of carbs, fats and protein etc. These are not measurements with a fixed set of nutrients for all the participants. Did you measure as well your non-fasted trigs after consuming pure carbs, pure protein or mixed meal? The biochemistry of fat metabolism may change significantly depending on how one consumes it. I'm almost certain that if together with rising triglycerides you blood glucose rises, it is much worse than if glucose doesn't rise. I think this might be something similar to the situation with LMHR (lean mass hyper-responders) and actually contradicts in a way recent findings by Dave Feldman.

Hey Mike, If non-fasted triglycerides rise 2-4 hours after a meal, and people adhere to eating 3 meals over a 6-hour eating window; then, is it possible that triglyceride readings may "bootstrap", so that after each of the 3 meals, triglyceride readings not only increase once, but then increase a further two times - potentially giving a dangerous 3x triglyceride reading at the end of the 6-hour eating window? And, if so, may a better strategy be to space out those 3 meals over a 12-hour eating window, rather than a 6-hour eating window?
