As a dietetics student, I'm seeing all my biochemistry and cardiology lectures all coming together in this video and it is GREAT. I think a critical point is that we are used to worry about the numbers while we should care about the pattern and the whole picture of how someone eats.

@@danhhoang5947 Heart disease is the #1 killer. However, traditional heart disease protocols-with their emphasis on lowering cholesterol-have it all wrong. Emerging science is showing that cholesterol levels are a poor predictor of heart disease and that standard prescriptions for lowering it, such as ineffective low-fat/high-carb diets and serious, side-effect-causing statin drugs, obscure the real causes of heart disease. Even doctors at leading institutions have been misled for years based on creative reporting of research results from pharmaceutical companies intent on supporting the $31-billion-a-year cholesterol-lowering drug industry.

I avoid processed fake foods, vegetable oils, excess sugar and carbs. I eat a lot of fatty meat, eggs, butter, full fat dairy, vegetables and fruit. I have been eating this way for several years now, I recently had full blood work and coronary artery calcium score with a result of zero. My cholesterol is high but triglycerides are very low. No diabetes or vitamin deficiencies and I and I am fit with healthy bodyweight. I will continue eating this way!

My takeaway from all this: 1. Eat whole foods and cook your own meals as much as possible. 2. Avoid ultra-transformed foods at the grocery store (and fast food) as much as possible. 3. But also, in the name of intuitive eating, don't beat yourself up over occasionally indulging, and enjoy it. 4. When buying moderately transformed foods like dairy, nut butters, and jams, go for the original full-fat or full-sugar versions to avoid ultra-transformed additives. Just reduce your intake of those foods in favour of whole foods. I'm totally struggling with following all these guidelines lately, like my body emotionally craves all these ultra-transformed "fast food" type foods. It's like I don't feel satiated in a day without at least one of those types of foods in my day. I'm curious about it and am exploring where that may come from: my upbringing, my stress levels, my use of these foods as emotional comfort. But this video is motivating me to get back to buying and consuming more whole foods, and make myself nourishing meals that are yummy, satiating, and healthy. It's a balance and a journey!!

Umm well i thought it was helpful and developed my own takeaway from all this, so thanks. And i wouldn't ever expect informational nutrition videos to be simple, the human body is an extremely complex organism from the organs and enzymes of the digestive system to the hormones sent out by the brain that regulate those organs to the mix of chemicals in the food we eat that is broken down in specific ways to be absorbed and used by our cells for the functioning of our whole being....! Not to mention the medical, social, and psychological factors that can influence the functioning of that whole system!!!! No wonder people study the topic for years and research is still extremely active in the field!!!! For me, having a scientific knowledge of what goes on inside me helps motivate me the choices i make about myself, and i just personally find it fascinating to try and understand. So i really appreciate all of Abbey's hard and important work of vulgarization.

Hi. I am a nutrition student. And yes indeed coconut oil contains saturated fat, but the type of saturated fat it contains are medium chain fatty acids, which are different than the ones found in animal products, which are long chain. This means they have two different metabolic pathways, and it has been found that while long chain fatty acids are stored in the body in the form of adipocytes, medium and short chain are used as inmediate energy such as glucose in the body, thats why in the sports world, athletes are given this kind of fatty acids for inmediate energy.So coconut oil is not bad, but that doesnt mean you should eat it by tablespoons. Like everything else, moderation is the key. Coconut oil is not hell but neither the opposite. Hope this helps ❤

I have as much cheese and yogurtt as ever, and my recent lipid panel was perfect. i had also added soy and kale to my diet at the same time. My cholesterol had been higher years ago when i ate beans and chicken and had a belly. Your cholesterol can drop just from weight loss. My blood sugar is a bit high but it has nothing to do with "eating too many refined sugars" or "carrying excessive visceral fat" or "being sedentary".

LDL is not the problem. Inflammation is the problem. Inflammation is caused by a high carb diet which causes insulin damage in the arteries and the body uses cholesterol as a protective mechanish in the artery (compared to a scab but it’s inside the artery). The solution is to remove carbs and then insulin will come down and inflammation will recede and you will be fine. Ldl cholesterol is not the problem.

Part of me wants to assume two things. 1) Due to our omnivorous evolution we are designed to eat both plant and animal material. Due to this, one can also assume a blanket assumption that plant fat is unsaturated and animal fat is saturated. This should mean that the consumption of both is necessary and a tilt to either side causes health problems. 2) Processing takes a large toll on whether or not something is less or more healthy in any of the above considerations. Unsaturated fats from nuts are good, the problem arises when you take pounds of those nuts and press them for oils in ratios you would have never seen years past. Same with seeds and the like. It's literally the same as why fruit sugar from a fresh fruit is fine, but adding fructose syrup to your food will hurt you. This all feels even more relevant, to me, considering that the body needs somewhat equal or similar levels of omega-6 to omega-3. Everything just feels like there's a lack of balance and all of the diet plans out there are dramatically designed to swing from one side to the other. Of course it's going to feel good the first couple of weeks, your body is returning to a balanced point. Then the next month hits and you're feeling worse than before, so of course you go full backpedal into the previous diet which makes you feel great _because on the way back you hit a balance spot._ Repeat ad nauseam.

Dear Abbey, thanks for breaking down a very confusing subject! The whole picture, or 'lifestyle' is quite influential in maintaining healthy cholesterol numbers. As I tell my husband, it doesn't matter if you eat egg whites and oatmeal every day. It's better to walk 8-10k steps daily, reduce sugar and alcohol consumption, and increase healthy fats from foods like avocado, nuts, and Salmon (and proper portion size), that will have an overall positive influence on reducing LDL cholesterol.

My doctors always have fun reactions to my blood tests. I've been fat forever, constantly oscillating between overweight and obese according to my BMI. My doctors, seeing me, keep ordering blood tests to look at my blood lipids (which to be clear, I'm glad they are tracking). Everytime my doctor opens the test results on her computer in front of me, and I notice the slight surprise in her voice when she reads me the results. Everything is perfect.

@@MichiruEll BMI is not the best predictor of nutritional status. People with high muscle mass (many athletes) are considered obese if only BMI is considered. Much more important is the ratio of height and waist circumference or even just waist curcumference alone. Lipids are cholesterol fractions and TG (triglycerides). I'd say TG is as (if not more) important for cardiovascular health than cholesterol fractions. The "kind" and location of your fat can also tell the story of either health or disease. The worst situation is when fat accumulates in the liver. If you don't get winded when climbing stairs, if your blood pressure is 120/80 or lower (measured at home properly), if your glucose and HbA1C and liver enzymes are all within norm - you are healthy regardless of weight.

Like: "hi, here's some beautiful veg options you forgot about: time for some kale / beetroot / orange?" Cause I tend to just most of the time eat the same 8 foods like tomato, pepper, carrot, cucumber, apples, banana's, lentils, eggs and bread.

I really appreciated this video and I think you give a great big picture, educated view on a lot of these topics that we have strong public opinions on but that is based on faulty public health messages or questionable/controversial research. With regard to studies on saturated fat and heart disease, like most health research, they are primarily focused on men and the few that included or focused on women had much different results than expected. I would love if you would consider in the future making a video focusing on this lack of research of widely accepted health claims and advice when it comes to the physiology of the female body. I know as an R.D. you analyze and synthesize research for us and it would be interesting to see this lens overlaid with the fact that the vast majority of the recommended dietary advice our governments provide us is based on research conducted on men and then extrapolated to give recommendations for women/children. It is my sense that a lot of what we hold as "truth" today are simple outdated hypotheses from a time when nutrition scientists were grasping to find solutions to a lot of the afflictions that middle aged men in modern western society were suffering from, i.e., heart disease and certain types of cancer.

I'm sorry but there is maybe a 400 kcal difference in calories when I make a curry with low fat coconutmilk as opposed to the regular one. How exactly does intuitive eating account for those extra calories. Will I just eat less, because I don't think so. Is my body magic, does it just account for the extra calories and adjust?

Intuitive eating is a crock. The people whom claim to do it successfully used to track everything and count calories. Once you have done that for a while, you know with a high degree of certainty what the calories and macros are that you are eating. True intuitive eating is what got people in trouble with their diets in the first place.

@@davidpeters7447 yep. Intuitive eating has always seemed flimsy to me, primarily because of the absurd amount of flavor enhancers that exist in foods. Everything from the most basic ingredients today is designed to make you addicted and overeat, so relying on your body's cues is not going to help. Unless you eat a 100% clean diet that doesn't include ANYTHING that came out of a bottle or container (which is literally not possible, unless you have time and obscene amounts of money) then this way of eating just doesn't seem feasable to me. I suppose you could be a bit looser with your calories if you train your body to crave unprocessed, natural foods like fruits, nuts and veggies but still, just relying on your eyes (which are notoriously far hungrier than your actual stomach) just doesn't seem like the best idea.

This is really good,. The only that I would take the time define is the difference between LDL-p Type a or Type b. To lower triglycerides and small dense ldl (type b) is also carbohydrate driven. It is sorta the idea behind the lchf movement. Glucose directly increases triglycerides and the small dense ldl seem to glycated. From what I can tell, everyone has a personal carbohydrate limit. However, hyperinsulinemia, from what I can see, seems to a bigger problem and a more well documented data than saturated fats. I do have a bias for low carbs primarily because I have dietary constraints I need to work with, There is also the issue of “is lowering ldl really more healthy?” If it is type a ldl, type a ? Many studies are showing people with higher ldl-p type a live longer and have less cvd. Type b is showing issues. You are right, there is no consensus. There is a lot of data. It is a great debate. I love your approach. I love that you consider food as medicine, I think if we eat as close to nature as possible, we will all do well. High fiber vegetables and leafy greens, sprouts, are also the lowest carb and becomes a win win... the good fiber vegetables, with whole fat dairy, nuts, seeds, cocoa nibs, berries, and good whole meats. I used to do a ton of soy, but found I am allergic... I am also celiac, so I tend to not do too many grains, I still have a ton of variety, so it is all good. Coconut oil makes a great skin oil. Lol.

Yes, I have read that often times frozen foods can be more nutritious because they have been frozen at peak ripeness. Fresh foods are often picked before they are ripe so they ripen through transport so they can lose more nutrients through the process, especially if imported from farther distances (like a different country).

Increase omega 3’s (chia, salmon, trout, walnuts, flax seeds, hemp hearts) Eat more high fiber beans and legumes Eat more plant based fats like nuts, seeds and avocado Eat the rainbow (diversify your diet and eat a variety of different colored veggies) Swap meat for tofu and tempeh when available Choose more monounsaturated oils (like olive oil0 Drink more green tea

Dear Abbey, I have been watching your videos and love love love your ways of making complicated nutrition topics "digestible" for the wide audience. I am a dietitian myself and currently am working on an article about raising kids with healthy eating habits. I wonder what your take is on "protecting" kids from not so healthy influence of some food and snack commercials and overall marketing traps. Do you have a general plan about raising your children in the world of cupcakes, fruitloops, cocopuffs and Twinkies? How to navigate shopping, cartoon time etc. and not succumb to demands for super sweet, over processed snacks advertised and marketed to kids while letting them chose what they want? I guess what I am trying to say is please make an episode on raising happy healthy kids.
