In 2017 i was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. I struggled with my weight for so long my doctor told me what to eat and i stuck with it. It was hard. and i was miserable. I still struggled every day. My a1c was 6.8 to 8.1 . My LDLs were around 160 on average. I was on ravustatin and trulicity. The statins made me feel completely miserable. In January i finally said. Im done. I completely cut out all processed sugars and fruit with high sugar like bananas and grapes. I cut out all starches. Instead of potatoes i ate air fried sweet potatoes occasionally. Stuck to red meats. Lots of chicken and broccoli and other low starch veggies. I eat alot more eggs. Everything i cook i either air fry, grill or bake. Every morning i wake up and drink a large tumbler of iced vinegar/lemon water. Now my sugar is at highest around 115 in the mornings i walk alot at my new job. Ive lost 36 pounds since January. My inflammation is so much better and i sleep so much better at night. Last week i ate a chocolate bar and the first time since 2017 my sugar didnt go up. It was 94 a hour later after eating that candy bar. And the weird thing is. I dont crave sugar anymore. At all. It's such a great feeling!

@@CubitaLola No starch. No fruits. However, I will indulge in some blue berries on a seasonal basis (summer months) ..but when I do it's once or twice per month. Basically, it's triple B & E including ground lamb, some chicken once or twice a month, fish when I catch it. I'll eat bell peppers a few days a week, well cooked & mixed with my beef or lamb some days. Maybe 3 small onions a month. I will buy 4 or 5 small tomatoes on the vine per month to add to my eggs,etc. Some days I'm at zero carb, other days 10 to 15 but RARELY over 20 carbs daily. Other than the seasonal blue berries, all the carbs come from the few veggies and/or whole milk Greek yogurt (plain) once a month.

My husband is 52 and already has a CAC score of 250. His triglycerides are 163, HDL 70, LDL 200. He has had similar numbers for most of his adult life. He is 6 ft 3 and weighs 188. Hemoglobin A1C is 5.7 and fasting glucose is 96. Last year he went low carb, but for someone like him I don’t believe he went low carb enough. I don’t believe he processes carbs well at all. His doctor is solely focused on lowering LDL and is pushing for him to get on statins. I am against that and and pushing my husband to go more towards Keto. I realize that may raise his LDL but I also know that it will lower his triglycerides and I’m hoping that will prevent further damage to the arteries. His LDL is the small type which I know is bad and so I’m thinking he already has some insulin resistance, and yet the doctor says no because his triglycerides aren’t that much over normal and his glucose is good. I know you can’t diagnose him, but could you please let me know if I’m heading in the right direction with keeping pushing him to go even more low carb? I would really appreciate any guidance. I feel he is way too young to already have this much plaque build up in his arteries. Makes me wonder if he has some other inflammatory condition going on or can triglycerides at that level do that much damage to the arteries? Thank you!

Long story, beware. I'm 65. At 60 I requested a CAC after unhealthy life and saw a cardiologist to get it. She reluctantly allowed for it. Score 312 and first thing she said: "I want you on statins". I refused and that was the end of our "relationship". I never was able to get another CAC. Perhaps I should look outside the country (I live in the Netherlands). My own approach: Intermittent fasting, 18:6 or so. Low carbs, little industrial products, no industrial seed oils. Love steak and it's an important part in my food. Magnesium, Vitamins D3 and B2 (I have elevated homocysteine), vit K2 and Boron to control calcium, Berberine and Chrome picolinate to control insulin (I discovered that I am pre-diabetic using a continuous glucose monitor) Fatty fish, cod liver and pure fish oil high in EPA and DHA. My omega6:3 ratio is around 2 now :) A few months ago I started with Natto kinase, now I'm on Lumbrokinase, I hope it'll be effective against plaque. NAC and MELATONIN, Taurine and Glycine. It's a lot, but thank God am only on Losartan as a drug. I hope I'll have a CAC again and I can then lower on supplements when I'm happy with the score.

Being a carnivore I have queries about that. For example, whether insulin suppression is generally occurring in carnivores? Is it only for a certain group of people? Is there any new development in that area? I really enjoyed this video, I just would like to know more about insulin suppression. Thank you for making the video!

Ketogenic diet with intermittent fasting to become insulin sensitive
@mariomenezes1153
@mariomenezes1153 Ай бұрын
Mainly by getting insulin sensitive and then fasting. This combination ensures that you need to get fat out of adipose tissue for the bodies energy use and the liver generates HDL particles at this point. Don't think there is a short cut. That is the reason you tend to see high HDL in healthy people and low HDL in unhealthy people. One of the best markers of health is the HDL to triglyceride ratio.

Could you have misheard him? Surely he would only talk in that way about high *LDL*, not HDL! In any case, he's obviously wrong, because low HDL is a worry, not high, and LDL rarely has anything at all to do with heart disease, so doctors shouldn't even be looking at that! (unless someone has the familial hypercholesterolemia, but even then, maybe not). Get the doctor to clarify what he meant!

Thanks Doc! I have a consultation scheduled with you for October. Question ... what about high HDL, high LDL *and* high TG? On strict carnivore, my TG went from 110 to 380! hsCRP and ferritin were also both high (10.5 and 1200+) Over the past six months I developed xanthoma throughout my hands and xanthelasma on my eyelids. (The formation of xanthoma really kicked into high gear in late April - it's now very uncomfortable to do any work with my hands without gloves as anything I pickup hits a xantoma deposit and it hurts). Also wresting with pruritus for the past 8 weeks. I've taken the approach that this is an extreme case of insulin suppression gone on too long based on my habit of eating a large meal of protein and fat taken once a day, greatly in excess of what the body needed - in particularly as I was not exercising much at all. SInce then, I've added sardines and fish oils, split my meals into smaller ones (and am simply working to eat less overall as well), added exercise (fast walks of 3-9 miles) and even hit of something insulin stimulating from time to time with the hope of pulling the excess energy (TG) from the blood and into fat cells. After three weeks of that, my follow up tests showed TG down to 150. hs CRP down to 3.5, ferritin down to 750. However, the pruritus continues and I feel like the xanthoma are continuing to build. I"m due for another set of blood tests to see where I currently stand. Looking to see if I am on the right course and hoping for any tips or suggestions before my consult in October. Right now the pruritus is the day to day villain. Other than the pruritus, I don't have any symptoms of a biliary blockage (no pain, nausea, vomiting or fever, no jaundice) so, lacking other information, I'm operating with the thought that I've induced a condition of "nutritional hepatitis" based on the inflammatory effects of too much protein in an insulin suppressed state. Can I have taken in so much excess protein and nutrients that I inflamed my liver and impaired its bile handling?

So how do we raise HDL naturally?
@Fair-to-Middling
@Fair-to-Middling Ай бұрын
I wonder why men usually have lower HDL than women. As a woman, mine has always been great (4 years ago it was 109, currently 87). As you can see, it has gone down a tad in recent years, but I'm 65 yo. I have observed that men of all ages have lower levels in general. Studies have shown it's not hormone related, but why then? 🧐

My trigylcerides are 55, LDL 95, total cholesterol 162 but my BUN/Creatinine was elevated and glucose 89. This is 4 months post ketovore. Not sure what those mean. HDL went up from 38 to 58. My BUN is on the higher end and uric acid went up from 3.8 to 4.4 Are those concerning numbers? Lately I have been feeling fatigued and depleted so I added a little bit of starch. I workout too. Im a 36 y/o female. Do I just need to increase my fat? I have hashimotos as well. I dont want to overdue the protein if thats why my BUN/Creatinine ratio is high.

@mariomenezes1153
@mariomenezes1153 Ай бұрын
Don't think it is a magic bullet like a statin is to LDL. Niacin in a healthy person may (or may not) help generate HDL. Niacin in someone with metabolic syndrome is likely to not do anything.

Slowly get off trt. Zero alcohol, and resistance training. I don't have a gym but use kitty litter buckets as weights. Also go slowly up and down steps w a bucket in each hand. Don't overdo the weights: one good session every 3 days ok. Erections like magic came back as I started drinking smoothies I made in my kitchen w beet juice. Just over 1/3 beet per day. I blend 3 beets at a time and store that in 2 32oz mason jars. Lasts just over a week. Good luck.

Been on Carnivore 3 months and shocked to see my Tryglicerides shot up from 79 to 167 and LDL from 190 to 565. HDL went up from 59 to 71. I did not expect my Tryglicerides and LDL to increase. I am 50, 139 lbs and 4% body fat. Lift weights and 25K-30K steps a day. I eat 80/20 hamburger, 4 oz chucke eye, chicken wings, 4 oz salmon, 9 eggs and 6 tablespoons of butter a day. I did do a lot of cardio that morning before my fasting bloodwork. Also, I do bake on Saturdays with Erythritol. Don't know what caused the increase. Should I retake my blood work?
@gardenchickster1
@gardenchickster1 Ай бұрын
I found a source that says no extreme exercise for 3 days prior to blood work. Perhaps try to find sources of what to avoid prior to bloodwork that can skew your results. I do resistance training 2 times a week, and my blood glucose is always elevated for a couple hours after my work out. Normal morning fasting BG is 95. after exercise it spikes up 20 points. This might have effects on lipo proteins as well.

HDL has been injected directly on an experimental basis, but was found to be ineffective. Of course, a single study can yield anomalous results, and maybe endogenous HDL works differently from exogenous LDL.

So I have a question. I was diagnosed with high cholesterol years ago and was told I should take statins. I refused the statins. However I wonder if high cholesterol has anything to do with lipodema... I developed a big fatty lump " lipodema " on my back, between my armpit region and upper shoulder blade, just next to my armpit and it's getting bigger. It's almost the size of a golf ball. I also have a smaller one on my " jawline" . Are these fatty lumps related to high cholesterol and am I able to naturally get rid of them? Shrink them through ( exercise ) and perhaps fasting ?

My hubby has one on the back of his neck. When he eats more like I do (zero to low carbohydrate) over a few weeks it actually gets smaller. For awhile it was totally gone 😮 but when he is at work he makes different nourishment choices than when he is at home… fried foods, frozen coffee drinks, sandwiches and burgers with the bun and all. So for him, that’s when it all changes… refined carbs, added sugars, and seed oils. He also tells me how terrible he feels after a couple days. 😢 he’s getting more conscious of what he feeds himself now and has decided on his own what not to put in his body. Hope that helps in some way.
