I just had open heart surgery, 17 days ago. Bicuspid aortic valve, born with it. Never had any symptoms. If I hadn’t lost 100 lbs last year, they wouldn’t have touched it. Never had any symptoms until 6 weeks ago, they thought it was pneumonia. Keto saved my life.
My husband had that surgery. It was hereditary condition, killed several of his relatives. When he complained in Iraq, they told him it was allergies. By the time they caught it, his aorta had thinned out so bad it was near rupturing. He did real well on the mechanical heart valve. He was a mechanic and if freaked him out. Said he fixed broken things and it was mechanical. I could hear it at night when he was sleeping. The surgery did well for him. VA caught the heart in 2006, but left him on a waiting list for a colonoscopy and he died of rectal cancer in 2014.
I have the same condition, hereditary birth defect. Two open hearts surgeries in 1989 at 17 years old. First surgery was emergency, complex. Collapsed at basketball practice. I was basically dead for 30 minutes.

Keto and IF has healed my peripheral neuropathy! So glad you are ok 🙏
I have passed this story on several times to people I know but not on a platform like this. My dad was 65 at the time, never smoked, barely drank more than beer or two at one time, wasn’t overweight, played tennis a couple times a week and could run me into the ground. Got a call, they hauled him to the hospital,got there, talked to the Dr and the first thing he asked me was did I know he had diabetes. I said no he told me that my dad thought he had a problem but hadn’t talked to dr or had any test. The heart attack was caused by the diabetes, did enough damage that changed his life that day. I’m not a dr but diabetes is by far very important to control.
3 stents 5 years apart, always with colesterol in the red below recommended levels. Cardiologist still recommend statins.
I am now on Keto with no statins but take magnesium supplements. T2D reversed as well.
Well done Dr. Berry and all other doctors on the same bandwagon.
Wow amazing!! May i ask how you’re doing now (heart health wise?) my brother is convincing my dad (60 yrs, one stent in LAD 100% blockage no HA luckily - plavix 75mg everyday ) to try carnivore or at least keto for a month. I don’t feel 100% since I haven’t done my research and of course everything I read and see tells me otherwise for heart healthy diet.
I don’t mind realizing I may be wrong for being skeptic, I just want accurate data, results and the best for my dad and his health
Can heart disease be reversed?
My B6 count skyrocketed recently and so have dropped my magnesium supp - do you know if magnesium would have caused that. Notwithstanding I’ve read where magnesium is a real life saver in so many ways
I had a heart attack recently. They TRIED to put me on cholesterol medicine even though my numbers are 173. They TRIED to put me on high blood pressure medicine even though i actually have LOW pressure. I am my own advocate!!!
Damn, they really wanted you dying so they could get even more money out of you.
@@jessicali8594
Right! Not gonna use me as a piggy bank. I saw both of my parents take their list of medicines religiously. Did it extend their life, i do not believe so. One filthy doctor even misdiagnosed my mothers stroke. I thought at the time she had a stroke. He diagnosed as seizure. I thought, what do i know, i am a teenager. But when she had the stroke that eventually took her life, it came out she HAD had a stroke five years earliers. Needless to say, i have been leary of doctors, and more so as time goes on. Take care of yourselves!
Me too! And don't u feel empowered? 💪
@@SweepDailyWin Most definitely! Best wishes
I hope you had your ha before you went keto :))
If you follow Dr. Berry's advice and read his book there is no need to see most physicians unless you break a bone or other trauma. Most will erroneously focus on TC and write an unnecessary and potentially dangerous Rx for a statin. There are DIY labs. Dr. Wm. Davis, a cardiologist, has online groups for info and has written excellent books. One needs to take their healthcare into their own hands and do research.

I am a nurse and work in a long term care home. I've seen many medical information channels here but this is, by far, the best I've come across. Thank you so much for sharing all the amazing things you do. Thank you for being humble and honest. I can assure you that not all MD's are like this, including my own family physician. Cheers from the East Coast of Canada!
One month carnivore. Ribeye and beef heart. Egg's, sardines, mussels and cod liver. Feel good 🍖
Yep 8 months for me. I love the carnivor diet. I'm 73 and feeling 35 again. In some ways I feel better than I did in my 30s.

Keto 2.5 years
Carnivore 7 months
2.5 tyears before to learn spiking insulin kicked me into afib
Ablation didn’t fix it-
Was headed towards type 2,
But without weight gain- bp had gone up- athlete, and ‘ not me!’
Off all meds 3 years
Back in the woods and can still be physical👍
These healthy Docs are awesome!
If you crave crunchy foods, have some pork skins, pork cracklings, duck cracklings, or roasted nuts. You won't miss potato chips.
@@petercallinicos I’m 35 and feel 73. I need to jump on the carnivore train.
Sorry to tell you this, but the powers that shouldn't be are trying to force people into vegetarianism and make meat harder to get. For the fricken ENVIRONMENT, you know. I'm sure it has NOTHING at all to do with weakening the human race and turning all of our manly men into pathetic soy boys.
you are the doctor everyone in the world needs. thank you to you and your wife. bless you guys.
Dr Berry, my husband’s ultrasound 2 years ago showed his right carotid was 100% occluded. Last month his new doctor wanted a current ultrasound and it showed a flow of 60-70 %. This was after 4 months of Keto Carnivore. Thank you so much. We’re hoping it’s also doing the reversal to every artery including his PAD. ❤️
nov 8 2019 had a heart attach ,3 stents and 9 pills a day. Went KETO..... stopped oatmeal, apple juice,bran muffins, whole grain bread, and everything said to be good for you.
And ?
Did you have a cac score? Best wishes
I hope this turns out very well for you and I think you made the right choice! Luck to you from Va.
This study is a huge breakthrough for the LCHF movement. There are so many clinical tries out there, which contain detailed lipid profiles before and after keto. Combine these records with this study, and it becomes pretty apparent that the "what about cholesterol?" nay-sayers have little ground to stand on. Maybe they should be putting "heart-healthy" stamps on steak now.
Thank you Dr. B. for those timely updates!
I had 2 fatty steaks along with 5 poached eggs for dinner. My doctor told me to eat high fibre because I have diverticular disease. I have only just started to get pain relief after going on a carnivore diet. What the hell do they know?
Avocados are low in carbs, yet high in fiber, both soluble and insoluble.
@@Bruce_Wayne35 I eat an Avocado every morning with my eggs. The eggs for me and the Avocado for my little friends inside my colon ^^ 😄
Just be cautious. Everything you hear on this site someone with less knowledge will refute. Many Doctors will refute. Do what you think makes the most sense for you. My decision 6 months ago was to TRY what Dr. B says. So far I am down at least 25 lb., no longer have high bp, , am refusing to take cholesterol meds., and have lowered my diabetic A1C to 5.6. Seems to be working for me. Best to you sir!
Keto all the way! I'm eating steak and cauliflower rice cooked in butter for my dinner while watching this. I still have a long way to go, but I am getting there with keto and fasting.
Keto grassfed plus I.F. and avoid industrial oils and all processed food is GAME CHANGER. TOTAL REVERSAL of chronic health conditions.
I was a compulsive eater - all the time - sugar all the time. I didn't think I could get off sugar but I've noticed as long as I had sufficient saturated fat, my keto and my carnivore go much easier and I feel so good. The last of my My insulin resistance is hanging on for dear life but even if I never get any better I'm satisfied because I feel so good being off carbs.
Don't cut calories your body doesn't like it.
IF and cutting calories are two different things to your body.
Got rid of my Type 2 diabetes and metformin pills, my sleep apnia, halved my blood pressure medication, ditched my uric acid pills and lost 50 kg on low carb high fat. My cholesterol is normal (although I never was concerned about it and wouldn't take statins) and this was despite eating lots of fatty meat and frying food in grass fed beef lard or butter. So dietary intake of fat has NO bearing on cholesterol levels!
Despite or due to eating fatty meat and fried foods?
3 months on Keto and my A1C went from 8.8 to just 6. Lost 57 lbs in the process. Blood pressure is almost below 140. I’m gonna keep going. This is amazing. This WORKS!
I've lost about 25 pounds by IF and LCHF diet. Last two blood reports showed fasting glucose in the 80s and A1Cs over the last 6 months both at 5.3. Tryglicerides good and HDL at 62.. But no praise for losing weight or lowering A1C - just let's talk about your elevated LDLs. I will not be doing statins. Told her I feel better than 8 have in years. Strange how that doesn't seem to matter to them - just pushing drugs.
Everything improves when you lose weight. You could do this with any diet
@@dekyor9547nope
Ur videos have changed my life and my fiancé life as well..thank u thank u thank u
Haha, cholesterol raises libido and sugar destroys it, as does the OCP. Not sure about The Patch.
Eliminating indigestible industrially processed refined grain, legume and seed oils banishes depression.
Thank Dr Berry.
I'm seeing my doctor on Monday. She's still on the statin kick and has resorted to telling me horror stories about every person who has ever dropped dead from a stroke. 🙄
Yea, but how many had a statin deficiency?🙂
Yes, mine told me that I would be in care facility and someone was going to feed and wipe me. I have never felt better at 71. From needing a cane to walking 3 to 4 miles daily and doing heavy property work. Never going back to SAD way of eating.
Maybe you will find better info & support from a Functional Medical Doctor? Changing my life for the good!💗
You should check out Dr.Zoe Harcombe regarding Statins.
Not gonna lie as a daughter for my dad that requires I accompany him to his cardiologist, I get worried when the doc say the warnings of not taking the prescribed medication, but I assume that’s their tactic
Thanks Doc! By following your advise I was able to completely reverse my T2D & loose over 150 lbs, I even had to buy new shoes last week ,,, I went from a size 13 down to a size 11
I went down 2sizes in shoes as well. For about 6mths I was a 9 1/2 in one foot and a 10 in the other🤣😂 that did equal out eventually. Ive been a 9 in both feet for over a year now.👍
*lose*
Doing just keto or carnivore? Great job!
@@kristinstrada8785 a little bit of both. For a little over a year I have been carnivore adjacent or "carniclose" lol the only non meat items I consume are peppers, guacamole, pickles, spices & condiments.
Which anti-inflammatory supplements can prevent heart disease?
Your videos are a literal GIFT! Thank you Dr. Berry.
I can’t thank you and your Neisha enough. You have very literally saved my life and my quality of life has improved tremendously. ❤️
And the cause of Type 2, High blood pressure, and metabolic syndrome----a lifetime of eating the SAD diet causing insulin resistance
What's the sad diet?
@@kassandrasabean6020 Standard American Diet with all the processed garbage
@@johnsonpaul1914 Thank you. I'm taking it all out. Wish me luck.
@@kassandrasabean6020 prosessed veg. Oil, prosessed sugar, prosessed grains, over consumption. That’s just for starters.
So I guess the home made donair I was just offered wouldn't work most of the time?
Good to know! I'm gonna eat my bacon and eggs now and continue improving my health! 🥓🤤🍳
My cardiologist is concerned about my LDL. Very disappointing.
All allopathic trained doctors with rare exception, see red flags at “high” LDL. My cardiologist wants me to use rapatha injections. Very difficult finding one with up to date knowledge. Somewhat discouraging.
@@unovecchio5958 Mine tried to prescribe STATINS...I told him I'd rather die of "heart disease" than ALZHEIMER'S.
Hope you guys aren't paying out of your own pockets. No health insurance for me as I'll never take prescription drugs or submit to surgery. I'll not break a bone thanks to raw dairy.
My doc prescribed statins for me. I got the prescription filled and put them in the drawer. That’s where they will stay.
@@rl9808 Great idea. I REFUSED to fill the script mine gave me.
After 6 months on keto I had blood work done yesterday for my annual physical on Monday.
My ldl rose from 108 to 131, but my triglycerides dropped from 85 a year ago to 56, and my HDL went up from 44 to 76. That means my triglyceride/HDL ratio is .74 and it is the best predictor of having diabetes or a heart attack. My overall cholesterol number is still only 216 which is just borderline high so my doctor can't bitch about it too much.
Please skip the “borderline high” part...cholesterol is simply an energy transport system-an absolutely necessary part of life
-how do you feel and keeping triglycerides low (of course via low carbs high fat)👍
Thank you, thank you, thank you, Dr Ken~you've saved my life! Reversed metabolic syndrome, high BP and high triglycerides with your advice😊😊😊 I still have high LDL, but threw away the Crestor. Again, THANK YOU
How are you doing now?
Thank you so much Dr. Berry for sharing your knowledge with us. God bless you and your family! 🙏🏼
Hi Dr B!!!! So glad to see you. I appreciate you everyday. Day 8 on carnivore!!!!
One thing I love about keto is salt! My blood pressure has gone down since I started keto so now I thoroughly enjoy the extra salt I put on my vegetables and some meats.
Hi Dr Berry from Sydney, Australia!
Love ya man... My life has been changed.. I give you much of the credit fir educating me... Im down 130 lbs .... I was in bad shape stent in my left descending artery ..the widow maker.. I wanted something. Was looking for something. Then I found you. Thank you sir. I share your links every day..
I remember when the President of the American Heart Association John Warner had a heart attack. Hopefully, he listens to this.
Wow.
Wow. Totally insane 😳
How many officials in Diabetic Associations have diabetes? 🤔
Warner was 52 when he had a heart attack. Just 52.
@@VENOMOUSE77 Yes, it ran in his family down his father’s side and still he had CHD despite “doing the right thing” by diet and exercise as he claims. Makes you wonder.
Doctor you knocked it out the park! Love your videos and perspective
Hi Doc! I've just been to the cardiologist due to developing a heart arrhythmia, and when he aske about my diet I said that I have done keto for the past two years and am slowly switching to ketovore, and HE nearly had a heart attack! He has ordered me to stop all fat intake and eat nothing but whole grains, fruits, and vegetables. He says I am doing irreparable harm to my heart, and that my diet has caused my arrhythmia, even though all of my blood panels came back completely normal. I also did an echo cardiogram which showed absolutely no blockages. Now he wants to put me on blood thinners and statins, and I don't know what to tell him.
Tell him he is fired from being your doctor. Whatever the solution to your problem is, none of it will be what that doctor recommends, he obviously doesn't know what he is talking about..
Get a second opinion. You call the shots.
Hello Dr. Berry from Reno NV. Have lost 40 pounds on strict keto in 3 months. Shifting more to trying carnivore version as I’m having difficulty getting my glucose levels to low normal. (Even with total carbs of 20-25) Still have 65 pounds to go to reach ideal weight. Learning so much from your videos. Pretty sure I have metabolic syndrome with insulin resistances. I was pre diabetic with A1C of 5.5. Feel so much better. Prepping to have brain surgery for benign brain tumor this summer and want to be in the best shape possible. I have had hypertension since 19 years old. (Currently 56 years). I feel so much better just after a few months. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and expertise. Excited to try this next chapter.
I'm Carnivore about 6 months now, love it! Keto it up, you'll see the results you want. 🙏🙏🙏
Good luck! Cutting down carbs to less than 20-25g per day will also help. Some people need to really restrict the carbs to get results (me being one of them). Do you also do intermittent fasting?
Why didn’t the AMA just ask us? 🤔
Because... We don't have monies to give them 💰💰 😂💀
I just joined your channel sir and appreciate you so much! I am 46 and just found out last month that I am type 2. You are a hero in helping me reverse it.
Thanks very much Dr Ken, you are much appreciated.
Only now I wish the carnivore diet would help grow hair back on my cueball head...ha! That would surely be an incentive to stay on track and not cheat any!
Thanks Dr. Berry!
After six months of keto my LDL was 260 and my doctor was screaming STATINS at me. Even though i lost 20kg (obese to normal weight) and all my liver function tests were in the normal range for the first timr in 10 years. (GGT 120 -> 22). I asked my GP if I could get a CAC test and I got a score of ZERO. No calcium. HDL and Trig is good range. Fasting blood sugar and Hb1ac in normal range. She would not do an insulin test on me!
See my doctor put me on statin October 2020. I don’t know how to read or where to go and read my results she sends them electronically through their site. Any suggestions how to read my test from Oct??
@@minniepearl1052 you have a right to see your blood results. Request a copy from the doctor's secretary. They are yours. They will have records of all your blood test results.
Well I can go online to review them I just don’t know how to read them. Hahaha
@@minniepearl1052 Google it. I did that and it will give you the numbers to fall into that are supposed to be healthy.
@ Leann Havens will do thank you!!
I had an appointment with my cardiologist about my CAC scoring test result. The PA told me, the CAC test results show that my heart is in great shape. She casually asked if I don’t take any statin for my cholesterol, I said, nope, I am not taking statins. She said, it’s okay. Your heart is clear, keep doing what you are doing. Just make sure monitor your cholesterol periodically. I said half year or one year I’ll do blood work. She agrees. So, my battle of taking no statins is over! I don’t need to take statins from my cardiologist’s office. A very sweet victory for me. Thanks to Dr Barry, Dr. Berg, Dr EkBerg and many other great doctors in CZcams who work very hard to protect our health by educating us tirelessly. I am very grateful.
This is just the kind of info that needs to be “out there” 👍
The next challenge, to convince people that much of what they like/find convenient/are addicted to - is the root of the evil. Carb-rich lifestyle has never looked so bleak. Reduction and removal - perhaps the most powerful health-tool we have at our fingertips but that we fail to use enough.
Keep the videos coming Dr Berry, you are doing a great service to people👍🙂
If you want to avoid heart disease and T2D, just do the opposite of AHA and ADA recommendations, like The Standard American Diet, full of sugar and processed carbohydrates..😊
Watching this as I eat a fatty rib eye😀
I was diagnosed with hypertension and diabetes T2 in December 2020. It's now March 2021, and my A1C went from 11.2 to 6.2. My doctor still wants me to take 10 mg a day of glipizide and tried to convince me that glipizide and metformin, "do exactly the same thing but glipizide is stronger". I've done so much research... we went to a keto diet, and realized that meat affects my acid reflux. So we're essentially keto-pescatarian. My LDL is 190, and they want to put me on statins. They told me triglycerides mean nothing. I know they are full of it.... found a new doctor already, thank you for putting out these videos!
COPY THAT, Good data Doc! I
have been following you for a while now and it PISSES OFF .my PCM's.
This study demonstrates a clear dose response curve for the poison of carbohydrates. The initial risk of ingesting carbohydrates begins with elevated triglycerides, risk worsens as you develop metabolic syndrome, and risk is maximum when you are a full blown type two diabetic. I too am a physician, like Dr. Barry that is extremely frustrated with his colleagues that cannot see the relationship and are stuck in the failed hypothesis that heart disease is caused by cholesterol.
people stopped smoking and started eating more to compensate for addiction. i still smoke, no overweight, no high blood pressure, no diabetes, no chronic illnesses. at 65 I am healthy and live drug-free. in the last 12 years i only needed a doctor once - broken arm, which healed after 3 months - without a cast.
do you live alone as your second hand smoke most likely is killing your partner. Seen it through many autopsies. Its slow murder and may not be the contributing death factor never is on a report but reduces life expectancy for partner.
Thanks, Dr. B. Got to have this argument with my doc again in 2 weeks.
Another great video, rating the dangers of various risk factors for heart disease.
Thank you Dr. Berry! I am printing the article to take to my primary doctor and cardiologist this week. I have none of the things you mention, (and never have), except high total cholesterol and high LDL. My HDL & triglycerides are in the 70s. Just had an angiogram-all good, only 10% blockage. They want me on statins to “prevent heart disease.” I have been refusing statins since 2007. I am 66. I appreciate you so much! I have been ketovore for 5 months, keto for 4 months before that, and gluten-free, sugar-free, and soy-free since 2017.
Bring All the information and start a network of Dr's in every country to back it up!

Looking for the link from JAMA article, thanks. Dr told me my ldl was high 143, but my triglycerides are normal, and my hdl was 93. Was trying to find out how to lower ldl on keto, and this info was mind blowing. So it turns out I'm in good health ! I have reversed diabetes to a1c 4.9, weigh 123 down from 180 and has been sustainable.
Isn't the root inflammation caused by all of the above?
i tried local farmers beef....
my life is ruined, i became food addict 😊
Thank you for this very easy to understand video Dr. Berry. My Dr has been trying for years to put me on cholesterol meds for a total cholesterol of over 200 because I had small particle cholesterol and she said it’s dangerous. However my triglyceride to HDL is very good and I do. It have diabetes, pre-diabetes, or high blood pressure. I’m so grateful for you and other doctors out there clarifying this issue. I found you on Keto Connects recent interview.
Grandpa had none of these risk factors. Exercised daily, great labs, good BMI, ate as healthy as he could, kept his mind sharp, set a goal of living to at least 100. We all believed if there's anyone in the family that would make it to 100, it would be him. Found dead in the bathroom at 83, heart disease.
"healthy" is not healthy. healthy is defined by = whole grains, veggies, low fat, plant-based, juice/smoothie, high-carb, oats, fruit, nuts, seeds.
You describe a risky diet. Watch Dr Berry’s videos. Read Dr. Stephen Sinatra’s book on treating heart disease. And Dr. Saladino’s book, “The Carnivore Diet”
"ate as healthy as he could".....up until the low carb movement (people like Dr Berry) the diet that was considered to be "eating heathy" was close to the exact opposite of what is actually healthy. Also the resulting insulin resistance (not measured in standard labs) can occur decades before you officially become T2D or get concerning labs.
@Dan Richter Did he have a triglycerides / hdl ratio of less than 1.5, ideally 1. Elders with higher LDL live longer too, but for some reason they prescribe statins if it's higher than 100.
Which anti-inflammatory supplements can prevent heart disease?
Man I don't know anymore.... I've followed Dr. Berry and done Keto for years. Went off statins just over a year ago and as you'd expect total cholesterol went to 265. Even though Triglycerides were just 62, and TG/HDL ratio was .898, my CAC score went up to 308 from 240 2 years ago, putting me in 77th percentile at age 64. History of heart disease in family with brother and dad having bypasses. I've done resistance training for 47 years, have good blood pressure but A1C @ 5.8. After a video conference with a very accomplished Lipodologist, (Dr. William Cromwell) both he and my primary care doc advised that I go back on statins. Have mid February labs scheduled to review LPa, and hs-CRP along with A1C.
Any update to your labs or what you decided?
Dr Ken Berry, I was diagnosed with genetically inherit mixed dyslipidemia with triglycerides of over 600 and HDL below 40. So now I have been on keto for the last 4 years. My waist has shrunk from 36 to 31 slim. Really awesome and thank you for changing my life. However, my triglycerides are still very high at 300 and HDL is still very low around 42. What should I do more to reverse the problem?
Thanks Dr. Berry. You have changed my life once. I am confident you will do it again the second time. Thanks again
More specific sugar.
You are a gift to society, thank you.
From what I've learnt LDL comes in the healthy and oxidised varieties and only the oxidised is bad. Good to know that in general it's not a huge issue at all.
Again. Solid video, Doc.
does medical cannabis increase risk for attack or lower it?
when properly used
Wouldn’t a high cholesterol diagnosis be an indication that your body is trying to repair damage within the body, and therefore be something to take note of....not by taking statins necessarily, but by taking steps to find out what is causing the damage and at the same time eating a sugar reduced diet?
I’m so glad you talk about Apo B. I’ve been so worried about my high Apo B. I’ve been on keto for 2 years and feel great and all my inflammation markers are great. My Apo A is

See that hand drawing in the background? I drew a picture of that when I was a kid.
Great summary Doc! I would just like to point out that many of those variables are not unrelated (such as obesity and type 2 diabetes for instance) and while I don't want to promote obesity or high LDL levels as "healthy" the numbers do suggest that in this case they both are riding piggyback on the really dangerous "cousins" type 2 and high triglycerides. Meaning: it may well be the case that the 1.6 riskfactir for high LDL evaporates if you control for triglycerides - and the risk for obese people isn't as high if they belong to the (very small) group that is obese without having type two or metabolic syndrome!
I agree. I'm also pretty sure that I watched a video by Robert Lustwig where he claims that a study showed that if you control for diabetes (or did a GGT test or something like that) then obesity disappeared as a risk factor. I would also say that you can reverse diabetes and get the fat out of your liver before getting rid of all your excess fat (liver fat comes out first fortunately .. at least according to Dr Fung) in which case I would argue your remaining obesity is more a testimony to your previous high risk state not your current risk state.
Thanks so much for bringing us such great information that our doctors just don’t have or take the time to help us be healthy. Loving all of yours and Nisha’s videos...
The combination of more than 2 of these problems may increase heart disease by much more. My daughter has obesity, T2 diabetes & metabollic syndrome as well as the high cholesterol (the only thing her doctor is focused on). Trying to get her to focus on low/no carb is difficult. I think she keeps a lot of food at work that only slows down any progress she is making.
I’ve been struggling to get pregnant, my triglycerides were at a 4 and I’m 27 years old. I lost 19 pounds with KETO and I’m pregnant! My doctor is against me staying on the diet while pregnant. I’ve never felt better in my life! I don’t want to go back to eating carbs. I’m so tired of being over weight.
Did you stay keto throughout the pregnancy?
Actually i al a hyperreaponder with a cholesterol too hight more than 300, hope you can do a video about this dr 🙏🙏🙏🙏
I would love to see Dr. Berry debate Dr. Attia on cholesterol and statins. Would definitely be very informative.
I have commented before I thought it was my thyroid why I was feeling fatigued through the 4 years on keto. A year ago I started having palpitations thinking it was low potassium well it wasn't it was extra heart beats and I 2 small blockages imagine if hadn't have started keto I would be dead. They were probably large. Idk why after all that time I would have symptoms. I don't think I did anything wrong. Unfortunately I haven't lost all my weight. I was close and gained about close to 40lbs. Since the loss of my dad, I'm back I've lost 9 .
Greetings Dr Berry, Douglas from Jamaica.
Heart disease is scary so many people I know in 50s and 60s have congestive heart failure. So scary. Especially men
Thank u Dr ken berry ❤️🇬🇧
It looks like I'm doomed then. I am obese( but am loosing weight), I smoke,( but am trying to quit again) I have high ( but lowering it) cholesterol, diabetes runs in my family, I've had a heart attack already and have 2 blockages in my heart, I have high blood pressure ( on meds for). I am working very hard to fix it all. Not much works for me on some issues, but I never give up. I keep trying.
I need to lose weight, but the rest is under control. As long as I abstain or really minimize alcohol intake, triglycerides are fine. Fish oil does wonders as well. Amazing how Omega-3s lower triglycerides.
I’ve been on a strict carnivore diet for 1 year. I’m 66 years old, 5’ 6” tall, weigh 138 lbs, triglycerides 128, total cholesterol 343, HDL 52, LDL 265, and A1C 5.4. My VA doctor is on my case because of the cholesterol numbers, so I asked for labs to be done for ApoB. Results came back this morning with a score of 169 (
Excellent video!
Great Doctor, thank you for all your great videos
Would like to know more about congenital heart disease on an unborn child.
I'm type 2, hbp, obese, metabolic syndrome, smoked for 20 years, have high ldl. In the past year I e lost 65lbs, fully controlled my T2D with diet a1c is 5.3 it gets lower every check. My triglycerides are low normal, my hdl is up 20 but still low and my ldl is up, my BP is borderline now and dr thinks it will just get better. I can move and walk, and no more depression. My Dr wants to put me on ldl meds and I'm here to battle that. Even though my triglycerides went from high to low normal and my hdl is up. He wants to retest in 1 month which I think is too soon. I eat a meat based keto diet, I do use fake sugars and occasionally keto bread. I know I still need improvement but last year I was eating 5 pb and j sandwiches a day with a half gallon of milk and whatever else I wanted. I was doing a slow suicide, I knew this in my mind. Now I'm planning to hike and backpack and travel to new trails and live til I'm 90 while still hiking til the end. Ty for honesty so I can see the good things to come as I keep moving forward and how to get there. I do take my BP med I just see my parents on lipitor and they still struggle with the numbers, heart issues, and more meds it seems are added each year. ty for the honesty again.
Thank you.
I tried whole food plant based for the last month. I lost 8 pounds and at first my BP went down to 121/79 but about 2 weeks in it went back up to 147/93. Don't know why. Might be hereditary. Every member of my immediate family is on BP meds. Also, my acid reflux went away. That was it for the benefits. I was hoping it would help my joint pain and low energy but it did not. I've started carnivore before but never stuck with it very long. I think I will give another go and do one month like I did plants. See if it helps with the joint pain and low energy.
Just been reading a newish article about earlobe crease and heart issues. I have gained them since going ketovore 3 years ago. I am only 60k from 63k. I did have high trigs before keto but they had gone down 2019
Wow this is eye opening. I've been on keto nearly 4 mths and am getting heart palpitations constantly the past few weeks. Bit scary
Mine story is complete opposite . Had them all my life, keto reduced them , now carnivore eliminated them
Lemon water? Is that enough. I just had some pink salt in water.
Me too! Well, not the keto part but since December I'm having palpitations a lot. It's scary. Had a stress test and only had one palpitation during it. Still waiting results. My total cholesterol is really high. Not sure if its related. They are very unpleasant though
Magnesium...
@@miriam2909 no, you NEED electrolytes! Try Keto Chow brand, on Amazon
What if I don't have any risks other than elevated LDL (no high BP, no smoking, not overweight, no metS, no high TG). While the risk is relatively small, is there anything to get my LDL down that doesn't include not eating daily ribeye steaks?
What about Lp(a)? About 20% of people have it - more in African Americans, less in Chinese or Japanese. Very arthrogenic and currently untreatable genetic issue. Can cause aortic stenosis, and peripheral artery disease. ALL other risk factors need to be reduced as much as possible.
Life changing information. Thank You.
🔥Thank You DrBerry!🔥

How do Improve my LVEF?
(Echo doc Said chances of LAD scar viability is low - will do PET in 2 weeks)
I'm 42 years male. 70 kg. 165 cm
