My understanding is that LDL is necessary in every cell in the body, and that higher healthy LDL correlates favorably / positively with lower all cause mortality in people over 60. My understanding is that healthy LDL is essential and that damaged LDL may correlate with disease. My understanding is that LDL is damaged in humans primarily through two mechanisms: 1. exposure to high sugar / carbs, especially for prolonged periods, and 2. LDL exposure to high oxidation, as occurs with high Omega-6 levels (high O-6 to O-3 ratios) found in most or all seed oil fats. As I understand it.
I watch oodles of research reviews and lectures in this field, without ever really articulating any of it, but as far as my ear goes, that aligns with what I’ve seen.
I'd say Refined /Processed carbs ,more than high amounts of complex carbs .Ldl is also oxidised by smoking (probably vaping ,too), over-exercising , and micro-plastics , amongst other things .

Dr. Al Sears published an excellent book in 2010 explaining the problems of doing sustained cardio workouts (e.g. endurance running). The book is entitled "P.A.C.E. The 12-Minute Fitness Revolution." His idea involves doing short bursts of exertion, a complete departure from long cardio activity. I agree with his approach. In addition, his ideas about diet and insulin resistance were very much "on target" and many of the experts I follow today (e.g. Dr. Ben Bikman, Dr. Ken Berry, Dr. Jason Fung, etc.) are explaining diet and metabolism the same way Dr. Sears wrote about this in 2010. By the way, great talk, Susan!
This was really interesting. Correlation v causation. When I hear marathon running and cardio cause heart disease, I can't help but think that almost all of those people were/are high carb eaters, like your hubby. So is it the carbs, or the exercise? Do people who are fat adapted for their cardio have the same risk? Fascinating.
@@randyblanton5580 Thanks Im going to work on that. I have very high CRP so my doc wants me on statins and I said no way. Sure wish there were docs that could help me.
N=2 I love it. Most people don’t make diet decisions on their own. A large number of people choose their diet with the influence of their spouse. Thank you for sharing.
Right on! My spouse has lost weight after I started controlling the food. She finally stopped eating cereal yay. She’s done well just doing low carb - not keto. Fat isn’t the boogeyman. Even with sad, fat is better since they add more sugar if they make it low fat. Fat blunts the glucose spike which blunts the insulin required by the pancreas. Learned that back when I was doing south beach which was alright. Now I’m 80-90% carnivore - high fat. Can’t deal with the oxylates. They give me brain fog and eye blurries. Wheat is high. I don’t eat seeds/nuts. Better. Feel better with high fat.
I'm a LMHR and we usually eat seperate meals. On holiday I will eat mostly meat while my wife is more plant-based. When we eat in restaurants we will often swap some of the meat and veg in dishes that satisfies both of us.
My understanding of the dangers of fats is that LDL has one marker for what it is that the Liver can recognize. When you mix high sugar (and/or brittle polyunsaturated fats) with high fat you can beak the marker so that the LDL becomes tiny and then stuck in the arteries. Your speach illustrates a natural experiment happening hundreds of thousands of times across the country. Everyone who differs from than their spouse and eat the same thing can benefit from your perspective.
I think the problem is that the liver cannot re-uptake oxidised LDL, so it continues running through the body for longer than it should. Possibly seed oils and/or glucose have an impact on that oxidation. However, you still require damage in the vascular tree for any possibility of LDL even being considered a possible problem. My understanding is that atherosclerotic plaques actually contain very little LDL anyway, like much less than 1% and I've even heard that 0.1% is around normal.
As a mom of a type 1 diabetic, I distinctly remember the endocrinologist telling us that our son should not be exercising (he was on cross country) when his blood sugar was above 200. While it may not be healthy to run for years, I wonder how much damage is happening due to even smaller elevations in blood sugar like his a1c of 5.1. That’s an average blood sugar of 101. I believe it’s known that tissue damage is occurring at even 95.
Siguiendo el modelo de energia lipidica, en cuanto se termine de usar la energia almacenada en forma de trigliceridos del cuerpo, el LDL deberia de bajar debido a que ya no habria produccion de VLDL por no existir trigliceridos en el cuerpo al seguir una dieta sin carbohidratos. O me equivoco?.

Yes! I have his book, followed his workout and did well. I am so sorry it took me 11 years to get back to it.
This is an excellent discussion and I wish more were open to being this vulnerable and accepting to "not fully knowing".
Would've been nice if all the slides were shown full screen.

Glad I dropped in. Kept my attention all the way!
Loved this - thanks for sharing you and your husband's story
Very inspiring! I love how you took control and analyzed the data including how you felt.
This is a topic I’ve worried about. Thank you!
Thank you! Fellow LMHR, carrying on much the same as you.
A more important test is fasting insulin levels. A1c is not the focus
Is 7 a bad insulin number?
Ideally it should be under 5.

What do you think about Normotim for dieting? Has anyone tried this supplement?
What is TC means?
