I am 80 years old and for the last 15 years I normally have eaten from 30 to 60 eggs per week. Since I am allergic to doctors, hospitals and clinics I have no idea what my cholesterol numbers are. Up until 5 years ago I was operating a WoodMizer sawmill out in the weather of Panama until I had an accident and destroyed my knee. But this sedentary lifestyle will probably kill me before I need to worry about my cholesterol.
I have the same allergy.
haha.. allergic to doctors, hospitals and clinics 😂
I rhe same way, I'm 74 and haven't been to a doctor since I was 13. I'm scared to death of them.
i hope you have a good story before you go
I'm almost considered weird because I'm the only person at work who isn't medicated or who has some kind of fashionable 'condition' or disease. I'm also the only one with 100% attendance with no sick days in ten years.
My 73 year old mom was put on statin and I told her absolutely don’t take it. I changed her diet. She stopped drinking Pepsi and switched to green tea with honey. I switched her from cereal for breakfast to uncured bacon, eggs, home fries and avocados and her blood work came back perfect. Her doctor told her to keep doing what she’s doing.
My oldest sister resorted to better nutrition, later on? the dr said the same. no more meds!
@@rolphwartieda2707 meds are mainly for those who can't change their lifestyle
This shows you that there is something you can do about it.
wow!!! well done!!
Thanks for the information too.
There was a woman in the town where I grew up who ate 20 eggs a day for a long time. She only cut back to 3 eggs a days when she moved into a senior citizen's home, because her appetite in general went down. She died in Dezember of 2022. Not from high cholesterol, but from old age. She was 105 years old.
Congratz, she was lucky.
2 eggs a day is enough.
@@rrrose1000
But more than that is ok, and may even be beneficial.
I feel sick just thinking of eating more than two eggs in one day😂
@@U4Eye Put some bacon, onions and smoked sausage into that scrambled eggs, and you'll be happy yo eat more than just 2!;))
The problem ain't the eggs but rather sugars and carbohydrates 💯

My grandmother lived to be 90 years old and ate two eggs every day and never got sick.
I'm in England, so far during my lifetime I've seen 'health advice' on stop salt, stop butter, stop eggs and stop meat.....really does make you wonder doesn't it.
Thank You phubblewubb phubblewubb. They are very confused and misguided. They don't ask the right questions about humans and health. 😄
@@drekberg I'm also in the UK, our national health service (free at the point of contact/use) is STILL advising type over-fat two diabetics to eat a portion of carbohydrates with every meal.
Take the food pyramid and turn it upside down if you want to stay healthy.
Most of these so called government health advice does come ultimately from big pharma in order to sell their products and create customers 🙄
And yet salt, butter, eggs and meat are the most important foods we can eat. I consume about 2 pounds/1kg of butter a week.
@@Herzankerkreuz67 If I were a conspiracy theorist I would say it in the medical industry leaning on the pharmaceutical industry who in turn leans on the industrial production of food in a self-supporting circle that needs a global population to be in need of medication to maintain sales of their products, unhealthy people provide customers for LIFE.
Vital Farm where the 100 eggs showed to come from has been one of my and my family's top 3 favorites from the grocery stores. Your blood test results, Dr. Ekberg, along with your explanation of when the numbers mean, are eye-opening and we thank you for sharing all of this with us!
I spent 18 years eating 12 eggs a day when I was bodybuilding, and I have never ever had issues with cholesterol. I believe that this has to do with the individual and their genes as well.
Does it work for bodybuilding?
@VisionaryMedia24 I did it to get protein in. If I remember correctly, 100% of egg protein can be absorbed. The absorption rate and quality of protein are different based on the type of food. All of this is also dependent on your body, everyone is different. It worked great for me, but I was also eating chicken every day and red meat one a week too. You have to find what works best for you. Don't forget your complex carbs too. I would eat 40 to 50 grams of brown rice and a lot of broccoli.
I eat 450-600 eggs a month same , bodybuilding for 4 yrs 21yrs old
@@mehdishirazi3 solid advice. Thanks. 🙏
Whole eggs?
Can't tell you how much I respect and admire how you take the time to actually investigate and explain this type of reporting. So many times, lab results that are not well understood, taken in their entirety, and have led to a mis-diagnosis. I now do my own lab tests with a local lab and get the whole picture, and then do the research *before* discussing with a doctor. Thank you once again for your videos, Dr Ekberg!!
the doctors trying to ANALYSE the lab results don't even know what they're saying.
nip it in the bud, our liver must process all meds, nothing better than natural food
Glad that you're allowed to even get your lab results directly. Here in Arizona, Labs refuse to give test results to patients or say anything about them. Arizona allows most patient records to be withheld from patients to avoid lawsuits, I'm sure, but these days, can only get lab results from the ordering doctor, or actually, only his opinion of the results after reviewing them, not the results (mostly all but diagnosis and treatment prescribed, nothing else, especially notes because they never take accurate notes of what patient says and even falsify documents regularly, as well as misdiagnosis and misprescribe constantly. I had to go abroad to get properly diagnosed after suffering for decades as a lab rat being unnecessarily poisoned which gave me liver disease.)
@@MsElke11 they do, they're just too busy to take the time for the 1000 patients they see in a day. In a rush to collect copays and fill prescriptions.
@@SindeePalomino look how they handle elections, sure ill trust them with my health
I'm 74 and never had my Cholesterol level checked. I figured what ever it is that is what it and I feel fine. I went on a egg diet for 30 days a few years ago to improve my health.. Eggs are a very healthy food.
Do you suffer from any lifestyle diseases like high blood pressure or blood sugar?
@@michaell3711 I checked my own blood pressure and sometimes it's high never had blood sugar levels checked.
I don’t eat eggs they give me gas.
@@irmakalember9403 that can't be true! Unless you eat them together with bread or potatoes.
Eggs alone have no sugar so they have a very low glycemic index unlike fruits, grains, beans and veggies!
The latter as they digest the sugars cause the bowls to have gas as the sugars in the food ferment in the gut.
So, Im interested in how they cause gas for you?
Are you allergic?
Depends on the eggs. The best ones are pasture raised
Thank you so much for this valuable data keep em coming👏👏👏👏
Thank you so much for educating us!
My father died at age 93 and always had cholesterol around 200-220. My mother died at age 94.9 in 2013 and her doctor always harped on her about her cholesterol at 220-245. She provided my dad and herself a lot of good home cooked meals with a lot of vegetables, and they took supplements my entire life(55 years) that I know about. My doctor hollers about my cholesterol, but my triglycerides are very low, and I have no other risk factors in my blood work. No diabetes or pre-diabetes. No smoking. BP says about 130/85. I continue to ignore the cholesterol game. Most of my family on both sides have lived past 85. I live a happy life and will die like everyone else. I am more focused on eternity than trying to worry about a few years here.
Beautifully said at the end
Last line is beautiful!!
Hebrews 13:14 (see)
Focused on eternity matters most! Many functional doctors believe high cholesterol is more a concern if is high when younger but for longevity and for cognitive health it needs to be > 200 when older.
Honestly I'd bet "fixing your cholesterol" would reduce your life by a few years. Doctors aren't taught to find the root of the problem, and people may have different thresholds for what is "normal" for them. Maybe your high cholesterol is perfectly normal for your unique physiology. Just eat protein, get your vitamins and minerals in, drink lots of water and exercise! Your body will do the rest to keep you in a perfect homeostasis as long as you give it all what it needs.
My grandmother is 96 and has had high cholesterol around 280-290 and lives alone and healthy.
Mine did too..up to 300 dipped white bread in bacon grease.. died at 103.
@@bonniekirkwood4676 😂😮hope u’v got her genes!!!
But the studies do not show that that is a indicator of healthy populations, your good genes grandma just happened to be good genes,
Among centenarian blue zone populations, the people who had high cholesterol did not live as long, it is not to be replicated
@@ejRecording If it's all about the genes then doesn't matter what "Studies" of over all populations show.
@@CG-sw9mu drink more please
Great graphs and good to know . . . didn't really think about studies done vs published.
I love watching your videos, thank you for your work 💗
Thanks for the info. My case I am 66 years old, and usually had total Cholesterol of 198 aprox. But I have no illness, only some mild allergy to dairy and seed-oil. So I decided a bit more than a year ago, I concentrated on "Inflamation"... so I stopped eating Gluten, seed-oils and Dairy. Also I have been eating 9 to 13 eggs per day (yes per day) for more than a year. No more skin reactions, no cramps, perfect digestions, and I lost 10 Kg of weight, and my cholesterol is 135 (all other blood indicators within spec). I ignore if on right track, but I feel great, nice energy, and no medication.
I agree that going from no eggs to 15 eggs a day would upset anyone's system. I have been eating eggs every day for at least 30+ years. When I was heavily working out, I was consuming a dozen eggs every day. Since then, I have slowed down and have consistently been consuming four eggs every morning (fully cooked white and raw yolk) for the past 10+ years. My four-egg breakfast is enough to sustain me for the whole day, and I only eat dinner in the evening.
So only four eggs and nothing else?
How can you eat the same thing every day, I tried and I can't
you can add bitter gourd also
@@Neophema Four eggs, sunny side up, yolks as raw as possible, whites cooked very well, salt, pepper, whole wheat bread, couple of espressos. Every morning. Never gets old.
@@ValLusis Sounds delicious!
So important information! Thank you so much!
I ate anywhere from 3 to 5 eggs almost every day when I was a child. My mom made eggs everyday for dinner because it was cheap and nutritious and I really like eggs. I was very healthy and athletic growing up. Never had a problem with cholesterol.
How was the farts? Were they smelly??🤔😍
@@DMTEntity88 the farts smelled good. Even now, some days I’ll say to myself, “today my farts smell good”.
@@DMTEntity88 I do not get gas from eggs
@@DMTEntity88 what is wrong with you
I have my own free-range chickens and eat about 10 eggs per day, depending on how many eggs they lay. I'm 67 YO and I've been doing this for most of my life. The last time I went for a total blood workup was about a month ago and I was told everything was perfect.
How do you eat them and what else do you eat as part of your 67 yo diet ? Do you have good genetic inheritance .
@@equatorialjourney4478 I think this person is lying about the amount of eggs they actually eat. It's insane to eat that many eggs, 7 days a week. Too much of a good thing is overkill.
@@Dynamo001 The fact that he has his own egg laying chickens, 10 eggs a day doesn't seem unreasonable especially if he's on a budget, I imagine he spreads them out through out the day
@@pinayladyoz8044 exactly
@@Dynamo001 I eat 6 eggs a day comfortably and I'm a small guy. 10 is not out of question especially if you have chickens and have to keep up with the eggs.
Great to see another person debunking this nonsense :) I've been eating eggs for 45 years now, pasture raised around 15 per week with more in recent decades and (that's me and my wife in the profile pic) you can see if I look my age or not. Blood work always comes back excellent and my body composition always stays healthy, even on weeks I didn't hit the gym. Im moderate carb and most calories come from high quality sea foods, grassfed land animals, eggs, raw cheese, veges, sweet potato etc.
Yes hunny you looks great even older than me hehe 😍
Dr. Ekberg, I have learned more from you in just the last few weeks, and look forward to learning a great deal more - and connecting with your office. Thank you!
Hello. Dr. Sten.. I have seen several videos of yours on your channel. they are really amazing lectures. I am from Korea. Thanks for your contribution to the Health of all people.
Crazy respect to you for having the confidence and doing this experiment yourself, Doctor! Your channel has been unexhaustible well of knowledge.
Thank you Michael Oskroba. I really appreciate your feedback and so glad that you liked it. The purpose of my channel is to explain things better than other channels and help people understand the principles. I spend so much time on it because when we get "the why" and the mechanism we become empowered for life . Comments like yours makes it all worthwhile. 😄
Yes, much respect for the wonderful Dr Ekberg. How lucky are we to have access to a real doctor who cares for humanity.
Amen!
Im very happy to see how u exposed how fake these “studies” are! They are more of a advertising tool than an actual study. Also they only have to be 1% higher than placebo to be considered effective!
🤠 When I was young I ate dozen eggs 🥚🧂 in one day. Don't know what my cholesterol numbers were afterward but I sure enjoyed it. ☺
My grandmother is 92. She lives at a nursing home with my 94 year old grandfather. They’ve been married over 70 years. She has “high cholesterol “ They don’t seem to have any significant health issues but remain bored together.
Great laugh here
God love them both
Keep your blue eyes herritage alive
It cracks me up! my heart goes to them! God bless their souls!!
Amazing your looking where are you from dear

Outstanding information and help !
Excellent video for a good comprehension of cholesterol. Thank you Sten, I learn a lot of important things on your channel. Clear, precise and such informative. Take care. Love from Paris.
Excellent work and overview, thanks!
Years ago I read a small booklet written by a German heart surgeon who made exactly this case. The man had performed thousands of heart operations in his life and saw the standard cholesterol treatment as a dangerous lie. He had tried to convince the German health care authorities to listen to reason but in vain. The material he presented was logic and well founded. This is the first time I hear somebody stand up and say the same thing. My mother was perfectly healthy with high cholesterol and became tired and demented with the ‘medication’. I was never able to persuade her to leave the pills, though, because “the doctors know what they’re doing”. Thank you for this video!
Do you remember that surgeon's name? I'd like to read his work!
Do you remember his name by any chance?
Sadly, most doctors only know what the pharmaceutical companies want them to “know”.
Question everyone and everything. Look what the last 2 years did to the "experts" guidance.
Or maybe the pills slowed her deterioration how do you know they didn’t
Thank you so much for the clarifications and the detailed explanation , well done 🙏
A living legend,great pleasure to watch your educational videos doctor.
Much love ❤
Dr. Ekberg, You are amazing Sir! I wish all doctors talked like this.

Eggs increaes the cancer risk proven by studies! In 2012, the authors looked specifically at choline content and found that men in the highest quintile of choline intake (471 mg/day) had a 70% increased risk of lethal prostate cancer (38). Although choline is found in all animal foods it is more highly concentrated in eggs at 250 mg per egg.
A meta-analysis published in 2015 showed a modestly elevated risk for not only prostate cancer but also breast and ovarian cancers for those with the highest intake of eggs, more than 5 per week, as compared to those with no egg consumption at all
but that s not for common people
Top quality information thanks from Portugal, very clear
He is a chiropractic doctor. He is not a medical doctor, nor a nutritionist. - He make nice videos, his videos might be right or wrong. Just like yoga teacher.
Thank you for REALLY explaining what standard cholesterol bloodwork numbers mean and don't mean. It's great to know the whole picture to present to an MD wanting to push an ineffective and harmful statin for "high cholesterol".
TQ for info doc..good job..keep it up
Hello Dr. Ekber 👋 I am a brand new viewer and subscriber. Besides this awesome video I have seen the one where you ate a lot of butter. I am so blessed to have found your channel. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart for all of your help and knowledge. God bless you.
The pharmaceutical industry has gotten doctors to continually lower cholesterol levels over the years so they can push more of the drugs. The levels for our great and grand parents was much higher and there was less heart disease. Once again we are being manipulated.
Thank you so much for your channel. So glad I tripped over it. I'm here to stay. I learn so much.

I just want to say thank you for posting this video and making that test on yourself..... !!!!
A proficient doctor is someone who conducts the experiment themselves and then shares that knowledge with everyone on the channel. I appreciate your clear explanation and simplification of what cholesterol is and what aspects to be attentive to. Thank you for your articulation.
Great video, much appreciated information! My doc suggested I start statins with my total cholesterol (241, HDL 65, LDL 166) and my triglycerides of 50, with BP normally 100/60. I was put in a high risk cardiovascular disease category. My docs office doesn’t offer NMR testing. I went with triglycerides/HDL ratio calculation, which shows my numbers in a low risk range. I refused the meds and started to dig and learn about cholesterol. This is one of the best videos I found so far. Thank you! Will certainly share.
You have a great tri/HDL ratio! Keep up what you're doing and ignore the $cience.
@@Geraki01 thank you!
I would LOVE to have those stats! There's NOTHING wrong with your numbers. Get a new doctor lol.

Thank you so much Dr. Ekberg, for being a nutrition expert and sharing your knowledge on this channel. My body is so much healthier, and my sensory perception is so much better since I started eating eggs every day. I am also able to steadily lose weight and I understand how to do that. Obviously your body is in extremely good shape, and I appreciate you so much, because you are able to influence healthy changes in mine. I also appreciate you for doing this stunt. There are people who have told me that they're afraid to eat too many eggs because they are concerned about having high cholesterol. I am definitely going to keep on following your advice, because it really is the best, as far as I'm concerned, and I may start eating more than one egg a day. I have noticed that when I don't have an egg for breakfast, I end up feeling very, very hungry for the rest of the day. I think I might start having salads that include boiled eggs along with the other ingredients. I have been telling quite a few people about your channel, and I tell my teenage students to eat eggs for breakfast. I think this is the ideal food, especially for teenagers, because it is inexpensive, so healthy, and is a way that teenagers can definitely get enough to eat. They require so many more calories than adults, many of them are constantly begging for food because their parents don't know how to afford to feed them enough. I'm sure they follow my advice, because they ask me how many they should eat a day. If they ask that again, I will tell them about this video.

Hi Doc, always a great appreciation for your work. I especially appreciate how much effort you put into the details and the simplicity of the presentation.
The Korean study you cited was very interesting! I have also seen results from the study done on Loma Linda Adventists, and it turned out that those who ate one egg a week had a lower level of Alzheimers and dementia than those who had no eggs, yet eating more eggs held no greater advantage than the one egg. I find it interesting to see the similarities and differences in studies, rather than picking a side that I just prefer to believe in. Diet is almost like a religion, or a tribal totem, to many people.
I wish more doctors pursued the science like you and didn't just practice on patients. Keep up the great work.
I did this for 4 months and grew feathers.
If a prescription isn’t involved there’s no money in it for the physician. Unfortunately our health system is monetized
One of your best videos. Thanks
You're doing a fantastic job on CZcams, lecturing people with truth and facts only! 👏
You should do a follow-up video on this about your small LDL-P in like another week or two. It'd be interesting to see you compare your results after resuming normal eating and a balanced healthy diet. Thank you for your work. Very educational.
Yes please.
Excellent video thanks for all you do Sir
Thank you doctor for your research!
High respect for people like you who publishes results even though it's not the result they were aiming for. A lot of researchers don't publish results because their funder won't like it 😉

@@GlossaME It wont sell more unneeded farmaceuticals...
@@Vixxing21 That's right. As in, the "right" section. The girl still didn't answer.
97% of scientists agree with whoever is funding them.
Always do your own research (DYOR) and think and do what’s best for you incl reading all independently funded (not by drug makers or powerful food industries) research. Humans share ~98.5-99% DNA but w/unique body chemistry due to lifestyle and certain genes that may make us more tolerant or immune to neg effects of certain foods or drinks that for others may feed cancer, CVD etc. We have trillions of bugs and far less cells and our microbiomes are diff. What works for me may not work for others.

Years ago I took a look at what medicine my late father was on, what they were for and what their side effects are. The short version is that I took the decision to stay off medical drugs there and then.
So the long version is that when I found out that my blood pressure was getting ever higher and my blood sugar was heading the diabetes way, I decided to go on the keto diet. It worked really well, I have had my bloodwork done several times and my blood pressure tested and everything is as it should be, plus I lost weight. I am still not taking any medicine at 60 even though I am often on a dirty version of the keto diet. I often have OMAD and do intermittent fasting. I actually feel better now than in my thirties and forties.
Thank you very much for doing this video. You are really clear even for people who is not actually studing medicine. Sadly I cannot convince my doctor to review this topic, he wants me to take medicine for my colesterol and I just don't want (even more when you si contra indications). Also happy to see eggs are not bad words from nutrition perspective. Regards from Buenos Aires.
I love this guy! Totally matches my experience in every video!
🗣Good day Sir Ekberg! How are you? Looking well as usual! Always well explained and super informative! Two weeks ago, I also did a challenge of my own. Having eaten 35 eggs in a week (5 per day). Although I've gone keto about 7months ago and balanced my sugar levels and health, getting rid of my type 2 diabetes and medication, my cholesterol was being a little stubborn at my last blood test 3 months ago (a little higher than usual by my Dr's liking). I personally only trimmed up a little on the saturated fats wherever I could and my Dr rang me praising the adjustments made even though eating 35 eggs and having had my current blood test at the end of that week, making eggs the cause of increased cholesterol a myth of the past in my circumstances. As always, thanks to you and for your insight! The world is a much better place with you in it! 🙏Prayers and 😇Blessings coming your way from Downunder🇦🇺Australia🇦🇺✌🤝

I've gone to the second doctor who tried again to put me on a statin since my total cholesterol is 294. Doesn't seem to matter that all other numbers from the blood test are exceptional, or I've lost 85 lbs through carnivore, sometimes ketovore, in the past year. If I did not have the knowledge you have previously given about cholesterol and the negatives of a statin, I'd probably be following the doctor's advice. Your explanations are so understandable, and you are invaluable to my health. Thank you so much!
Dr. Can you tell us more about your background and how you treat your patience. I heard you saying in past videos you were not a medical doctor. By the way I do enjoy and appreciate what you do!
Excellent presentation. (as always)
Awesome, a true teacher. Level headed and clear 👌
I always like your video's that dig into cholesterol. One of the "New" markers my doctor is trying to get me spooked about is Alpo B marker being high even though all other markers like CAC is 0, VLDL is 2, Triglycerides are 55, LDL size is 22.3. Would like to hear a video about ALPO B and ALPO A be discussed at some point. Great video as always!!
Doktor Eggberg, you are one of the best health coaches. 😁
Thank you so much for your high quality content 👍👍

@@drekberg I have a question. Why you didn't go with week 2 to see if it was a change. Also good job..I've always said eggs are super safe. Eat organic eggs and you can eat a 100 a day. It's these chemicals man made foods that's causing these problems. ITS THE CHEMICALS. Try it with Organic Eggs. It's these chemicals in foods and non SEED GRAPES and WATERMELONS and MAN MADE FOODS. Our Government says Yes to all we eat. Then folks pack the Hospitals. Money Makers
Thanks Doc. Good information
DR EGGBERG! Your videos have been life-changing for me. Greetings from Finland.
Until recently I would eat 4 eggs/day but I've started doing alternate day fasting so that's down to about a dozen/week. My LDL is high but my dr. is not concerned because after 6 months on keto, my TG dropped & my HDL went up higher than TG, making the TG/HDL ratio less than 1 which is good & the best marker for cardiovascular health. At 70 I weigh 160 lbs, the same as when I was 18.
I got to get my HDL up since my ratio is 2.2. More mackerel, herring, and sardines for me. Still on my weight loss journey but down 127 pounds in 11 months doing Keto, intermittent fasting, and lots of exercise. Have another 70 pounds or so to go.
@@exhaustguy that’s awesome!
Wow good for u. My HDL is higher a hit but my internal meds doc told me not to worry about it. It’s good for the immune protection her words. I don’t worry anymore. Good for u stay fit 😊
What is TG? Is that triglycerides? Thanks in advance
@@tortoro6565 Yes, TG would be triglycerides :)
I appreciate all the details you provide in your videos and that you explain things in a way that anyone can understand. Thank you for sharing. 👍
Hya Dr. Ekberg. I've just started watching your robustly scientifically based & informatively balanced videos & the one about eggs & this one about cholesterol in particular, are eggscellent. I always try to eat & live healthily, so your videos are great to watch. Leaving aside other variables, it seems a lot of health risk outcomes are from the amounts & types of food we eat & more to the point, how much & in what way, we are informed about these factors - it's as simple as that. Thanks for your time here. Regards, Claire.
I'm much concern about my in high cholesterol.
Thanks for your information Doc. Ekberg
I greatly appreciate this video. I got off the statin my doctor had me on. I felt terrible on it and my joints ached. I had also limited eggs, shrimp and other high cholesterol foods. Now I’m back eating those items and focusing on what I eat and how much. I pay attention to where my food comes from and I’ll see how my health and blood work respond. Thank you for your videos!
My sister takes a statin and at her last checkup doctor said her numbers are not in the danger zone but doesn’t hurt to take them. I told her that is crazy! But then again she has had 4 jabs. She thinks I’m crazy as I haven’t and eat like I do. Love her dearly and hope we both will be ok. I’ve decided that you can only live your life as an example and hope others find their way.
Wow...what an education. Thank you doctor!
Dr. Ekberg you are so helpful! I do a similar diet with some eggs and bacon but also keto friendly vegetables.
Thank you Doc! You just finished my cholesterol study. And what you said was exactly where I was headed. It's actually the oxidative LDL is the problem in reality. Great knowledge!!
When my cousin went to a high end fat farm the diet consisted of hard boiled eggs and diet Pepsi .....She felt ok And did loose weight. Best thing is to restrict grains and beans limit carbs.. eat low carb veggies with a few berries. Use almond or no coconut flour on place of glutinous flours. Watch labels for small amounts of sugar stuck into some/most prepared food. Watch you tube for directions on the keto diets. They have Iots of info by doctors who really know nutrition as well as many recipes.
Great respect to you Dr. Ekberg!
Thanks a million for your efforts. Channel number ONE on Health Awareness!
Спасибо доктор ❤
Wow he takes another one for the team. This doc is a real dedicated teacher of optimal diet. Thank you so much. Bless you 🙏
I enjoyed this video even though I've known for 15 years about the graph of total cholesterol vs all cause mortality (which the 2019 Korean study confirmed) and that the sweet spot is about 220. Your stunt was worthwhile to educate people.
As part of my KETO OMAD I eat a dozen eggs a day. Best health of my life.
Do you eat 12 eggs in one meal or you eat your meal one time a day and then eggs throughout the day?
How do you manage to eat twelve eggs in one meal?
@@catsinmylife206 he said OMAD mate, One Meal A Day
I also eat 12 eggs per day on Keto OMAD.
Thank You Nathan Waldron. Good for you. My stomach prefers slightly fewer apparently 😄
I eat 4 eggs a day. My problem has always been triglycerides. They're in the 200 to 400 range. I was concerned because my dad had diabetes and heart problems at 89 when he passed. I did a CAC scan which came back zero. Lipoprotein (a) was 14. Homocysteine test showed a 6. HSCRP 1.0. PAD scan and coronary scan zero. DR wanted me on a statins but changed his mind after these tests; which I PAID FOR OUT OF MY POCKET BECAUSE KAISER JUST WANTS TO PUSH DRUGS. Im 59yrs and been lifting weights 4 times a week for the last 20 years. Cutting down on carbs a little and watching my sugar. My insulin was 7.1 and A1c 5.4. Oh and jab free lol. God is good. 11-22-22. Just did my APO B test. Results were 111. The high/max range us 135. From what I've been reading this is considered high. Idk. Im just sticking to my routine and keep doing what in doing.
Hi sir. I workout quite intensely and i am worried about my knee health, do you have knee problems that could be related by wear and tear in the gym??
AMEN!! Well done!!!
@@p0tah7 not at all. I've been able to avoid most " normal" injuries thankfully. I certainly don't lift crazy weight anymore but still heavy to be beneficial. I see too many lifting incorrectly and too much. I stay in my lane. Concentrate on volume and not so much the weight. Keeps injuries away. Take supplements ; fish oil, creatine, multi, glutathione, extra vitamin D with K2, and my pre workout drink that has all the ingredients i need.
@@p0tah7 look into training backwards for knee health. dr berg youtube interviewed a guy recently about it. i have knee problems and plan to start this type of training right away. dr eckberg and dr berg are both incredible and seem to be on the same sentence on the same paragraph of the same page.
Great info! Paying for our own test it’s the best way to go….Cheers💐
Thanks for sharing this Doc
Great video!!
Outstanding piece. So many myths that my family, friends and I have believed for years. 🤯 You are both AWESOME!!
As a layman, I have no concepts of cholesterols but as I watched your presentation, you explained it so well I know see those reports on cholesterols differently. As you said it, it very much depended on whom providing the financial supports for those studies would have published results that were aligned with their financial goals. So what we read or heard may not be neutral publications as we want to believe in and they may not be fully trusted. Thank you Dr Ekberg for shining a light on this very confusing issue.
All of your video's are just fantastic. This one is no exception. Thanks for taking a complex subject and explaining it so we can understand it.
I just want to say THANK YOU !!
Thank you so much for this video, it was very enlightening and simplified the whole LDL/HDL etc!
This finally explains the current egg shortage. Dr. Ekberg's millions of fans are all eating 100 eggs in 7 days.
lol
Is it not Dr Eggberg?
Hallucinant...14 œufs par jour.....moi avec 2 je n'ai plus faim...et que mange-t-il d'autres ?????😮
@@marielouisechamberlin6412ele falou justamente isso. Que não é indicado essa quantidade, porque acabamos deixando outros nutriente de fora ,pela saciedade que o ovo proporciona. Ele disse que teve que colocar saladas para não ficar sem ingerir outros alimentos. Resumo: não faz mal, mas não e indicado. Foi o que eu entendi
Thank you for doing this for us.
just started hanging out with gymmy and i really needed to know it's favorite food. Thank you!!
I can see Cholesterol is a complex issue. I like how you present the difference. I do know how companies do the studies and pay for that, so I have heard the controversy before. Thanks this helps.
Dr Ekberg, I hope you continue to do this thing regardless of circumstances. I learned a lot from you and we appreciate your hard work for providing valuable information. Cheers to 5M more subscribers!
THEN GO COPY PASTE ALL THE CRAP HE TELLS YOU FROM WHERE HE DID.
HE'S NOT A MEDICAL DOCTOR!!!!! WHY ARE YOU TAKING MEDICAL ADVICE FROM HIM???
Thanks for your video. I'm so glad that i have a correct concept about cholesterol.
And i am so happy that i could eat eggs everyday without any concerns.
Wish I found you years ago I probably would be in much better health, I have a long road ahead but I’m believing in all this , I already v feel better and it’s only been 3-4 mos following your advice , losing weight less fog more energy and I’m only a few months in, my recent blood work had a few improvements.
