Currently, I have high cholesterol-it was 368, now it’s 221!

@@Dreamer-qq2rx This is awesome!! Whatever you are doing seems to be working, and with these tips, I am sure you will have healthy cholesterol sooner than later! Good for you!

How can I join your group.... thank you

This is great!! You are consuming a lot of what I recommend!

That's fantastic to hear about your success in lowering your cholesterol and improving your overall health! 🌟 Your approach of eliminating foods high in cholesterol, particularly cheese, and adopting intermittent fasting along with regular exercise is a well-rounded strategy. Keep up the excellent work, and continue prioritizing your health through these positive lifestyle changes.

Well done, I think your on to something there. ✅ I’m about to start intermittent fasting I’ve only heard good things about IF.

Thanks! IF can be great, but do it in a realistic way you can stick to long term. For example, I often tell my clients to do a 12:12 fast (eat within a 12-hour window and fast within a 12-hour window) @@wendyhannan2454

I wish i can lower also my high cholesterol

Welcome aboard! I am so glad that you are a part of our little internet family and so glad to hear that this video was helpful :)

​@@nourishcenter 😊😊

You are not alone and I work with people your age all the time to reverse it! All the best on your health and wellness journey. Remember, eating a balanced diet paired with physical activity is key!

Get yourself tested if you developed high cholesterol at such a young age. I also developed it around 25 years of age. It turned out to be familial hypercholesterolemia in my case. I was able to reduce around 15% with the dietary methods and exercise but my levels were so high that I had to take statins. There was no way around it.

Thank you for sharing your experience with me! It's wonderful to hear that you have been taking care of your health by incorporating foods that can help with cholesterol. It's also great to hear that you have been able to reduce your cheese intake through switching to a vegan diet. I'm glad you enjoyed the video, and I hope you continue to find ways to take care of yourself in a way that works for you!

Found your channel and it’s great full of very helpful information about getting your cholesterol down I’m studying to become a nutritionist dietitian, and being more healthy with a lifestyle of eating better and it’s awesome to see a beautiful young black woman sharing this I’m dealing with high cholesterol an I’m diligently working on making healthy meals using else black beans and chickpeas but I never tried soy but I’m ggoing to try it thank you continue success that you can reach more people ❤️🙏🏽🫶🏼

Please tell me what kind of plant based cheese you have used I’m trying to get away from regular cheese for my health

😂

Cheese is not good for the prostate.

I have done everything to lower my cholesterol, and nothing has worked yet. I lower my blood sugar with diet and exercise, and I have lowered my BP with diet and exercise, but my Cholesterol keeps going up no matter what I do..

​@@mamieslife1954Msame I also am pre t2 diabetic fing food low in sugar and trying lower cholesterol is near impossible

Hi! Thank you for bringing up these points, as there is but so much I can talk about in such a short video. You can ABSOLUTELY be at a healthy weight and have high cholesterol (and even high blood pressure). Being overweight is not the only risk factor for high cholesterol. Also, high cholesterol can cause high gallstone concentrations AND gallstones can cause high cholesterol. I know, science is so confusing and it's really difficult to find the "root cause" even though we try our best to get pretty close. Hopefully this helps! If this content speaks to you, hit that subscribe button for more. Exciting update: new video arriving this week! 🌟🍏

It can be incredibly frustrating. Please do work with a registered dietitian to help you to lower high cholesterol, especially if you also have prediabetes. They can help you to get to the root cause of your health concerns

In this case, if you have not done so already, I highly recommend working with a registered dietitian, and maybe one who specializes in treating high cholesterol.

Thank you for sharing your experience with eating for your blood type. While there isn't strong scientific evidence to support the idea of eating for your blood type, it's great to hear that it's worked well for you. Ultimately, the most important thing is finding a way of eating that makes you feel good and supports your health goals. Thank you for watching and commenting on the video!

The blood type diet has been very well researched by Dr D' adamo he has written a number of books on the subject & his research has been well documented over many years, his father before him had researched blood type before him too. It has been categorically proven that the blood type diet works. I myself have changed to this way of eating, my bad cholesterol has reduced to a healthy level, also my blood sugar, inflamation & digestive issues.

The science behind that is seriously lacking

Thank you for your kind words and encouragement! I appreciate your support and I'm committed to staying informed about the latest scientific research in diet and nutrition. Providing evidence-based advice is my priority as a registered dietitian. Your comment means a lot to me. Thank you again! :)

So glad that this video came right on time as a reminder! Remember, consistency is key when it comes to getting healthier. I believe in you, you can do this! All the best!

There is no one size fits all approach to lowering cholesterol. Sounds like what you did for yourself worked! That’s great. 😃

Wow, this is wonderful!! All the best on your future education! Feel free to check out my video as well about the new requirements to become a dietitian here. I hope it's helpful! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-4m9Ak-2jZ9U.html

I'm so glad to hear that you found the information and meal plan helpful! Starting small and making gradual changes to your eating habits can make a big difference in your cholesterol levels. And I'm happy to hear that the ingredient list is convenient for you too.👍 Remember, consistency is key, and I'm here to support you on your journey towards better health!🍎

I highly recommend you look into the new research out there on cholesterol. They have found high cholesterol is not an issue till after it is over 200 now. Now showing anything under 100 is now considered deadly. I learned this from Dr. Ken Berry here also on youtube. He even puts all the research in his notes so you can look up all the info yourself and digest it. He also explains how all this research is done and if it was a good or bad study. A lot of these studies are just someone asking someone what they had for lunch 6 months ago.....you really think we should trust that study....I'd never stake my life on someone 6 months ago memory. I can tell ya I follow Dr Ken Berry to a T cause my doc wanted me on statin, after 3 month she said glad to see you taking your statins. I said "I'm not taking them never even filled the prescription" Her mouth hit the floor and then asked what I was doing. Told her I followed everything Dr. Ken Berry told me. She no longer prescribes statins she prescribes Dr Ken Berry....been 3 yrs and she is so happy that she has taken almost every single patient off of statin now. Show's you really need to do your research. Most these people are trained by the same people poisoning you. You really think they training the nutritionist or doctor to make you healthy?...Pharma would be broke if they did that. I also follow Dr Shawn Baker, Dr Kiltz, Dr Anthony Chaffee just to name a few other for you to look into. Good luck, plz do the research for your health.

How's it going since you have changed your eating habits. Better?

@@icewater4725 I'm able to walk again, no more seizures, a1c is 5.6, BP last check 117/65. I can now open my arms all the way before only half way. I still have a lot of healing to do though. I was severely malnourished from being mostly a plant eater, My diabetic dietician said no more then 3 oz of meat a day. When I asked why said way to many calories, if you just eat veggie you'll lose weight. Never lost a pound, I just kept gaining weight. Even though I was biking 10 miles every other day and walk 3 miles ever day. All I ever felt was tired, exhausted, pain, sleepless. Sleep like a baby now, love it. I'm doing 120 grams of protein and 200 grams of fat and I have so much energy. When i drop the protein or fat, I start feeling tired and pain comes back. I can't get out of my chair. Some days my fat goes down to 160, but if i do that to long all the energy is zapped out of me. I honest think carnivore is the proper human diet. Even my husband was surprised of my come back that he went carnivore and he is loving!

You're absolutely right! 🌟 Cholesterol isn't inherently bad; in fact, our bodies need it for various functions. What's crucial is the balance and the type of cholesterol in your bloodstream. The HDL (high-density lipoprotein) to triglyceride ratio is indeed a valuable indicator of heart health. Higher levels of HDL, often referred to as "good" cholesterol, can help reduce the risk of heart disease, while lower levels of triglycerides are associated with a lower risk as well. High LDL should be avoided. It's essential to focus on the overall lipid profile and work with healthcare professionals to assess your heart disease risk accurately. Lifestyle factors like a healthy diet, exercise, and avoiding smoking play a significant role in maintaining a favorable cholesterol balance and heart health. 💓🍏🏃‍♀️

I thought nobody would point that out here! What we should watch out more is our HDL and triglyceride.

U don't listen very well do you ?

​@naturelover8725 she just said that. Ur not too bright

Yes! Everyone please do your own research. We do not all have the same exact body :)

Fermented Soy is pretty good, but watch the others!

Ty for giving the 3 needed gactors: Plant Sterols, Fiber & Soy Products

Thanks for your feedback. What didn’t you understand or what do you have questions about? As I mentioned in the video, I am happy to answer any questions in the comments section. So please do not hesitate to leave all your questions about how to reduce high cholesterol here.

Thanks for responding to my comment. You spoke above me. You used terminology I didn’t understand. You were giving us helpful tips but the terms you used in your first 3 points were not clear. I read the other comments and a few comments supported the points you made but those folks are dietitians Top 3 foods 1- saturated fats, trans fatty acids, but you didn’t give foods that related to those “ Fats”. 2- viscous fibers Plant sterols and stanols. Your video intimated “ foods” so if you wanted specifics that is some of it.

​@@elleenellis7246 Thank you for your message and for watching my video. I apologize for any confusion that may have arisen due to the use of technical terms in my video. I tried to give general information because there are many different foods in each category. However, I did give some examples of specific foods in the video - At 5:31 in the video, I provided some examples of plant sterol/stanol sources, at 6:21 I shared examples of different types of soluble fiber foods, and at 6:53 I shared different types of soy foods that contain isoflavones...I hope that helps! Thank you again for watching my video and leaving a comment. If you have any other questions or concerns, feel free to ask.

@@elleenellis7246 I agree with your comments.

I agree went over me head too guess it would of been better she mention specific foods.

You’re a warrior for surviving all that AND coming out the hospital without any heart disease!! It’s also fantastic that you got your cholesterol down by 35 points! 👏Definitely share the tips I mentioned in this video with your doctor to see if they will be a good fit for you to implement and hopefully you’ll be well on your way to lowering your high cholesterol even more!😊 All the best ❤

@@nourishcenter Thank You so much 👍

My pleasure! I’ll definitely consider that next time and list them in the video ☺️

Yes! But be sure to consult with your doctor as the side effects can be very similar to statins

My absolute pleasure!! I hope this video helps, and be sure to incorporate at the cholesterol lowering foods most days of the week. Consistency is key! I’ll also make a video in the future on foods to avoid to reduce cholesterol as well. Stay tuned by subscribing, if you’re interested!☺️

Big pharma. Buyer Beware. We are born with an immune system. You can do this with food n lifestyle changes 😊❤best wishes.

@@nourishcenter If they body makes cholesterol all on it own why would you think not eating food would stop the body from making the cholesterol at all? Cholesterol is not an essential nutrient according to the FDA. Which means the body has no need of food to make this nutrient. Which then mean it don't matter what food you give the body it will make as much cholesterol it need to repair the body. The more cholesterol your body make the more damage you have in the body. You really should go have a nice chat with Dr Ken Berry. I think you will find it very beneficial to yourself. I would think you would be very concerned about giving bad info that is no longer supported by Medical handbook. Dr. Berry will tell ya the name of the Medical Journal and what page it is on. Please update your teaching so we can get the proper infomation to people so they can actually heal. Everyone should be on the PHD (Proper Human Diet)

Thanks for sharing! Be sure to watch the video to get the exact types of foods that fall within each. :)

Thank you so much. Can you please tell me where I can find soluble fiber?

Thanks for sharing your feedback!! I’m also so happy to hear that your cholesterol has come down and your doctor is taking you off the medication! That’s BIG win because as I’m sure you know, every medication comes with possible side effects. Good for you for being able to come off!! 🎉🎉 I hope my videos continue to help you to bring it down, exponentially!❤

Thanks Cosandra, simple suggestion. I was trying to figure out how to block her instead of not watching the distracting hand movements. Thanks for the obvious

Great question! Whenever I buy soy products I always try to get my hands on organic and non-gmo products. I love tofu and edamame (both soy products) so I always get these organic and non-gmo for around $2-3 depending on what supermarket I shop at. Hope this is helpful ❤️

Silk soy milk is organic

Soy products not good for menopausal women

It Depends! But general rule of thumb is less than 300mg of dietary cholesterol in a day. This is a recommendation by the American Heart Association

Welcome to the community! I hope this page helps you reach your health goals!

Working on it!! I am excited that you can't wait! 😃

Wonderful! I am glad to hear that you enjoyed the video. I think talking about different brands is a fantastic idea. Maybe I could do a series comparing different brands for different types of foods? What do you think?

Steel cut oats..

I’m so glad it was helpful! I’ll be making a video about the benefits and drawbacks of different cholesterol-lowering medication, AND provide some natural alternatives! Subscribe to stay tuned ☺️

I understand your frustration with still having high cholesterol despite making positive lifestyle changes. It's important to remember that genetics and other factors can also play a role in cholesterol levels. Have you discussed alternative options (besides statins) with your healthcare provider? Keep up the good work with your healthy habits!

Lavern Gill, same for me. Statins have had a negative impact on my health and never really lowered my cholesterol. I finally had to quit because of the awful side effects. I have been using Repatha, wich is very expensive, but it has lowered my cholesterol, doing what diet and exercise did not do, genetics. Even so I would rather not have to use anything except natural methods Good luck to you.

​@@dorothybrown8859 are you at a healthy weight?

Dorothy Brown, I saw where they said natural health remedies like celery and okra are helpful so I am now making celery juice with cucumber lime, with pineapple and ginger without any added sugar so I am hoping by God's mercies I will see a difference. And yes I am aware about genetics and all . My parents do not have that issue so it might have been someone along the family tree who I never met. Get okra wash thoroughly. then cut into pieces then pour your drinking water and allow to soak for about 4 hours then drink. That's what I am doing now . The glue substance binds the cholesterol in the gut and then it is eliminated in poop.

@@Dr.yaya1711 I think so, and I am very active, in addition to mowing and trimming my lawn I walk my Collie. I also garden Eating vegetarian and cooking nearly all meals from scratch does not seem to make a difference (except I am still above ground.). I felt a little discouraged when I ran into a younger neighbor while walking my dog and he told me he is recovering from a surprise quadruple bypass! He must be the healthiest man on the block. Walks nearly everyday, even when he had knee replacement. Not overweight in the least. Seems if something is destined it is going to happen anyway. I console myself by saying I would probably be worse off if I wasn't so active and diet conscious. Even with leukemia and coronary artery disease I feel blessed, and contradictorily, healthy under the circumstances!

Thanks for watching! Tomorrow (3/29/2023) I will be releasing a video on some recipes that incorporate these three foods. Stay tuned :)

The video is out! :) Here's the link if you're interested ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-PG9O7folNRw.html

Good luck with a Dr listening

I learned they don't listen so don't listen to them. They aren't keen on anything natural

Thanks for tuning in and if you or your wife have questions feel free to let me know!

In simple terms, taking daily grass-fed beef collagen supplements is unlikely to directly cause high LDL cholesterol. LDL cholesterol is primarily affected by saturated and trans fats in your diet, rather than proteins like collagen :)

You are so welcome!

Glad to help! So many people are. You are not alone. I hope these tips help!!

Good question! No dietitian on the internet should tell you what to do without doing a personalized assessment in scenarios like these. If you have insurance, check to see if you can work with a dietitian. Oftentimes it's 100% covered with no out-of-pocket costs! All the best!

Hello! 😊 When dealing with high cholesterol, consider using heart-healthy oils like olive oil 🫒, canola oil 🌼, or avocado oil 🥑. These oils are rich in healthy fats that can help manage cholesterol levels. Remember to use them in moderation! 🌱🍽️ If you have more questions, feel free to ask! 🌟

My utmost pleasure Deloris 😊

Thank you for subscribing! 😊 I'm glad you found the content helpful. To increase HDL (the good cholesterol), you can focus on regular exercise, incorporating healthy fats like those found in avocados and nuts, and consuming more soluble fiber from foods like oats, chia seeds, ground flax meals, beans, and fruits. Additionally, managing stress and getting enough sleep can positively impact HDL levels. Stay tuned for more information on this topic in future videos and consult with your doctor before trying anything! 🌿🏃‍♀️🥑

I have read this too! More research definitely needs to be done in this area to make a definitive statement that it does. I have read that it is more so how the beans are brewed that could possibly increase cholesterol. Thanks for sharing Feel free to subscribe (if you haven't done so already) if you are interested in more content like this. A new video will be dropped this week 🍏😊.

Welcome to our Nourish family! All the best on your healthy cholesterol journey. Because this video did so well I will be making a little series all about cholesterol, cholesterol lowering recipes, etc. So stay tuned & again, welcome to the nourish fam!❤

Definitely consult with your doctor! Your gallbladder is a storage center for bile. You still make bile, however, even without a gallbladder!

Welcome to the channel! I do have a video on how to become a dietitian, definitely check it out if you’re interested in following this career path!

Hello, I didn’t know you would actually read and reply to my comment. I do feel a little embarrassed because my sentences are grammatically incorrect.

@@starr4781 no worries about the grammar. We all make mistakes sometimes and I’m not going to judge you or anyone for that 😊. Here’s a video that explains my career path ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-4m9Ak-2jZ9U.htmlsi=3fOp7BK1voLdJVnG. Also visit eatright.org. That will teach you everything you need to know. All the best!

It sounds like you're experiencing some concerning symptoms, and I'd highlyyy recommend consulting with a healthcare professional before starting any fasting regimen, especially given your recent health issues. Fasting can have BOTH benefits and risks, and it's essential to ensure it's safe for your individual health profile. Your doctor can provide personalized advice and guidance based on your medical history and current symptoms.

I think it’s fine! What are your concerns regarding it? :)

All creamers will typically be the same, about 3-4g of sugar in a serving. So honestly, just choose the one that you like, that is lowest in sugar, and a creamer who's ingredients agree with your body and don't cause stomach upset/GI issues.

That sounds delicious! I love garlic 😍

I thought I was the only one who put raw garlic on my salad lol. My husband craves it as well. Garlic everything!!!

You're very welcome! I'm glad you found the concept of epigenetics interesting and sharing it with your husband may definitely be helpful!! If you're interested in learning more about epigenetics, I recommend checking out resources like 'The Epigenetics Revolution' by Nessa Carey or "Epigentics: How Our Environment Shapes Our Genes" by Richard Francis(love this one!). The book by Francis is what I was referring to in the video and he cites a lot of research in it. Remember, it's always worth considering how our lifestyle choices can positively impact our health. Encouraging your husband to make dietary adjustments and adopt healthier habits may be beneficial in managing his conditions. Wishing you both the best on your health journeys!

@@nourishcenter THANK YOU

You're welcome! I'm glad you found the video helpful. When it comes to soy and thyroid health, there has been some debate. Soy contains compounds called goitrogens, which can interfere with thyroid function in HIGH amounts. However, moderate consumption of soy foods is generally considered safe for individuals with hypothyroidism. COOKING soy can reduce the goitrogenic effects.Regarding kidney stones and oxalates, it's true that certain foods like nuts and beans are higher in oxalates, which can contribute to kidney stone formation (if you are prone to it). Plant sterols can be a beneficial addition to help manage hereditary high cholesterol, especially if you're statin-resistant, because they work by reducing the ABSORPTION of dietary cholesterol in the intestines. Consulting with YOUR doctor or dietitian can help you create a personalized plan that addresses your hypothyroidism, kidney stones, and high cholesterol concerns effectively. Hope this helps! 🌿👩‍⚕️🍽️

Tysm for taking the time to reply...so kind. I am trying the plant sterilized. Vit D3 and K2 and eating one meal a day besides a protein bar for breakfast. I see my GP in 3 weeks and discuss your recommendations.

Avocado is a great source of healthy fat and fiber. Both fat and fiber may help to lower cholesterol! Eating avocado, in addition to the top 3 types of foods I named in this video will all be helpful 😊 All the best! Sidebar - I LOVE avocados🥑 😋

You're welcome!!

Thank you! Looks are in the eyes of the beholder though. Hehe 😇

Wonderful!I 'm thrilled that you're starting your journey towards lowering your cholesterol today! 🌱🍏 It's a fantastic step for your health. Remember, small changes over time can lead to big improvements. 🥗🏃‍♀️ If you ever need advice or have questions along the way, don't hesitate to reach out. Best of luck on this exciting journey! 🌟🌈💪

Anxiety can be one contributing factor to overweight/obesity due to it's affect on the body. But I would say that may not be the ONLY cause from preventing one from losing weight. Weight gain is multifaceted so we have to address weight loss from multiple angles (improve eating habits, walk more, reduce stress, and also tackle any metabolic health issues). Hopefully this helps! Feel free to subscribe (if you haven't done so already) if you are interested in more content like this. A new video will be dropped this week 🍏😊.

Thanks!

Your Welcome ❤️

My pleasure! Be sure to check out my new video that incorporates all these foods into different recipes 😋

Good questions! You’ll hear me say a lot on this channel these words - “everything in moderation”. While fish oil is commonly taken to lower cholesterol levels, there is SOME evidence that it may actually increase levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, which is sometimes referred to as "bad" cholesterol. However, the increase in LDL cholesterol is generally small and may not outweigh the benefits of taking fish oil - such as its ability to reduce inflammation and lower triglyceride levels.😊

That is very kind of you to say! Thanks for watching

Hello Freddy! You're welcome! I'm glad you found the information informative. When it comes to managing LDL cholesterol, it's essential to work closely with a healthcare professional.There isn't a direct "test" to monitor LDL cholesterol, but regular blood tests, known as lipid panels, can measure your cholesterol levels, including LDL. Based on these results, your healthcare provider can help you create a plan to lower LDL if it's too high. Monitoring your cholesterol levels over time will allow you to track your progress and make any necessary adjustments. Let me know if you have any other questions! :)

Aww, thanks! Haha! Some like it and some don’t 😩

I am so glad that it was helpful, Jodi!

Thank you so much! I’m so happy this video is useful for you. Feel free to share it with a friend!🥳

You are very welcome

It sure does! Grapefruit is a great source of fiber too!

@@nourishcenter Also fresh beets, cooked and the stems, and leaves, steamed - good for BP, and Morton’s LITE Salt which is potassium/chloride. All the things the doctors will not tell you. And get outside and get some REAL Vitamin D!

It can be quite confusing! However lucky for you when I was in graduate school I did an entire paper on soy. In a nutshell, soy is NOT inherently “bad”. I’ll make an entire video on the latest research on soy in the future as this seems to be a topic of interest for many😊

Fermented soy and soy products as found in Japan are good. This GMO soy found in the US is garbage. So yes, both are true!

​@@gp9532 yes the process ones that they add something to are bad

​@G P thx much. Learned this recently

This is what 😂said when she mentioned soy. It’s so confusing 😢

Welcome to the family!!! We are so happy to have you!

I totally understand! Thanks for the feedback :)

I’m going to be coming out with more videos on lowering cholesterol so stay tuned by subscribing! But I’d say to start with the three tips I mentioned in this video first, so as to not overwhelm yourself. Finally, consult with your doctor before trying anything I talk about - and anything you come across on the internet for that matter!😊

@@beckyg8028 My pleasure! Yay!! Welcome to the nourish family!!

……. May this message richly bless you and yours as it has bless me. Many profess believers of Jesus Christ believe that the fourth commandment to keep the Sabbath day holy was nailed to the cross and that we no longer have to keep it, while still embracing the other nine commands. Do you believe this? Which one or ones of the Ten Commandments do Jesus wants us to keep and obey? The Sabbath command is not only to be kept but it is to be calculated by the Time/calendar God ordained in the beginning of creation, Genesis 1:14. The sun, moon and stars are God’s True Time/calendar not that famous Gregorian calendar hanging on our walls in our houses. This split in God’s law must be repaired!! All of God’s laws, statutes, judgments and testimonies are just and true! We must do things God’s way or else we will be worshipping him in vain. There will be no good reward. God could possibly allow the Leaders of this world to enforce some type of Sabbath test. Today, there are Sabbath laws/blue laws/Sunday laws on government books. The Gregorian Calendar is not true time. God’s months start with the new moon day. Read 1 Samuel 20. The Gregorian calendar do not start its months with the new moon day. So then, how can Saturday, Sunday, etc. be the true Sabbath? The beast in Daniel 7:25 only thought to change time on paper, by inventing his own time/calendar. For he could not truly change time because it sits in the heavens where no man can tamper with it, the sun moon and stars. The woman in Revelation 12 is the true church. She is surrounded by the sun, moon and stars, the lights in heaven, the signs. The true church keeps God’s Sabbath by the lights in heaven. When she is in the wilderness, she will not be using a pocket Gregorian calendar. She will calculate her Sabbaths by the signs above. We who now keep Sabbath by God’s Time are fully aware that we do not have all the light on this precious truth. Many of us do not yet completely understand how the stars play their role in God’s Calendar., ‘etc. But, if we are counted worthy to be amongst the just, we are comforted because the Bible says that, “ The path of the just is as a shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day.” There is more light to come on this subject. Keep moving forward. Also, we cannot look to the people occupying the land of Israel today to say that they are keeping the correct Sabbath. Today, there is much controversy about who are the true children of Israel. The true Kids of Jacob are still scattered throughout the nations and still are being hated, despised and persecuted. Jesus said that there are people who say that they are Jews, but are not, but are the synagogue of Satan. Believe the WORD OF GOD above any nation of people!!! The true Sabbath is calculated by the sun, moon and stars. So, do your research on what you have read in this letter. This is how I have been taught to keep Sabbath by the lights in heaven. The first week is, the new moon day, then the six work days and then Sabbath. Week 2, 3, and 4 is, six work days and then Sabbath. There is never, ever, ever 5 Sabbaths in God’s months as it sometimes is on the Gregorian calendar! The Father has three category of days, the new moon day, the 6 work days and the Sabbath day. Read Ezekiel 46:1-3 and 2 Kings 4:18-23. They never overlaps each other. The new moon will never fall on the Sabbath day or on one of the six work days, etc. This information is helpful both now and future because we need to get back to God’s ways and if God should allow man to enforce a “Sabbath Test”, to see if we will keep His Law or no. If such a test is allowed, may we choose wisely. Let us seriously repent of our evil ways, stop worshiping other gods, talking about one another, stealing, killing, lying, fornicating, adultery, disobedient to parents, etc., etc., etc. Let us seek God, read our bibles, memorize His commandments and do them, For God’s Kingdom is coming!! Repent! Repent! Repent! Worship Him that made heaven, earth and sea. This Babylonian system is falling, the Powers in charge are aware of this fact but they cannot stop it. Their time is coming to an end! Our time is coming to an end! If any worship the beast and his image and receive his mark, the same shall have no rest day or night and they shall be burnt with fire and brimstone. Revelation 13 and 14. Deuteronomy 5 Isaiah 58:12-14. And, furthermore, don’t be deceive concerning the “climate change movement “ and the “pretend care for the poor.” Remember, Judas , the betrayer of Jesus Christ, who claimed to care for the poor? It is true that many common people really do care about the earth and folks. But, not this last day beast system!! The Bible unmask this deception. We have already been warned that the last day beast power will “devour the whole earth, and shall thread it down, and break it in pieces” …” and wear out the saints of the most High..”. Satan is the father of lies! Read Daniel 7:23,25 With the things that are going on in the world today, it appears to me that Revelations 17 is taking place . The nations are giving their power to the beast until God says, enough. Also, research the “Seven Noahide Laws.” I have learned that these are Jewish laws taken from their writings. The first law in the “Seven Noahide Laws” forbids idolatry and according to Jewish doctrine, to believe in Jesus Christ, God’s Son, is idolatry and is punishable by death, decapitation. I have also learned that some of the USA presidents have signed proclamations containing the “Seven Noahide Laws”under “Education. Day”. Could these laws be enforced on all nations in the near future? Research and see if these things be truth. May The Father of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.

Wonderful video. I look forward to seeing more❤.

This is a fantastic question. How do you define a “good diet”?

No red meat, eating healthy fats like avocados, low dairy (usually only cheese from goat or sheep) Mediterranean diet with lots of veggies and olive oil, leafy greens, legumes, oily fish, organic chicken/turkey , fresh fruits,, flax, oats, green tea 🙏 I also eat some soy products like Tofu and edamane but more sparingly..I have to be gluten free and nut free because of allergies...this is why it's confusing for me...because I already follow the diet everyone recommends but I tested high in my cholesterol..it must be genetic/lifestyle 😢

I saw your reply/comment describing your healthy eating habits but didn’t received an answer from the content creator. I have had the same question for years. Like you, I follow a healthy diet. I haven’t had any red meat in over 30 years, I am lactose intolerant, so I avoid diary products if not lactose free. All my meals are prepared at home, from scratch with natural ingredients and includes several Mediterranean type dishes, legumes, etc. For years doctors have been saying that my cholesterol is somewhat high. I don’t take any medication for it because the doctors haven’t provided me with any good explanation why my cholesterol is high. I don’t have an ounce of fat on my body, and over a period of 50 years I have gained 20 extra pounds since my late teens to my current 70’s Still looking for an to our question.

Welcome!!!! That’s amazing! I’d love to visit one day! What’s your favorite thing about the Philippines?

You're welcome! Welcome to the nourish community! :)

Welcome!!! What’s your favorite thing about it?

You are right. There are food which are medicines.

Me too😢😮

👍 GREAT question! Think about it this way - The time it takes to lower your blood cholesterol levels depends on various factors such as your current levels, overall health status, and dietary and lifestyle habits. 🍽️💪 Think about... How OFTEN you consume foods that could raise/lower your cholesterol.🍔🍎 How CONSISTENT you are each day..📆📊 How MUCH of certain foods you are eating..🍽️ All of this is going to play a role in "how long" it takes to reduce cholesterol by those percentages. As you can see, there isn't a one-size-fits-all answer for this type of question. However, research shows that a gradual and sustained approach to making lifestyle changes can be effective in reducing cholesterol levels over time. Hope this helps!

@@nourishcenter some. I guess I’m assuming since they gave the percentages they had to have a point they started and a time they stopped to get those percentages.

@@mswtaz94 Good point. I'd have to dive into the research to see if they shared that! But if you'd like to read it for yourself, here are the links to the research where I obtained the information 😀! All the best 1. jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/fullarticle/196970 2.www.lipid.org/sites/default/files/PIIS1933287415000598.pdf

@@nourishcenter Ok thanks. P

Great question! If you’re allergic to soy but still want to consume isoflavones (the thing that reducing your cholesterol) you can try foods like chickpeas, red clover, lentils, alfalfa, mung beans, fava beans, flaxseeds, and kudzu root. These foods are high in isoflavones and can be easily added to meals.☺️

No problem, sis! Glad you found the tips helpful :) In simple terms, omega-3 fatty acids mainly lower triglyceride level, reduce blood pressure, and can reduce "bad" cholesterol (LDL). Some studies have shown mixed results though. It's important to remember that other factors, like reducing saturated and trans fats in your diet, maintaining a healthy weight, exercising regularly, and eating a balanced diet are more important for managing cholesterol levels though. All in all, it's best to speak with a doctor or get an assessment with a dietitian for personalized advice. :)

@@nourishcenter After seeing this answer, I would recommend you also look up Sean O'Mara to learn about the new research about how regularly exercising is contributing to a lot of issues. I can not explain it as well as Sean O'Mare so please do some research and get in touch with him to learn about all the new research. Have fun learning, the rabbit hole is freaking deep. You seem fairly young and just out of nutrition school and I'm sorry your operating on 20 yr old data, you need to jump ahead and get caught up on all the new research that has come out in the last 10 yrs. But I can tell you this....hospital sent me home to die, that was 5 yrs ago. I wasn't ready to die. I followed Dr. Ken Berry and I'm thriving now, BP 117/65, a1C down to 4.8, off all 10 meds including insulin, healed arthritis in my lungs, oh and I'm able to walk again after 3 years of not being able to, and all my seizure have stopped. Oh and you might want to learn about Hyper Responders also, Dr. Ken Berry may be able to direct you to someone if not himself since he is one also. Hyper Responder are the new cholesterol studies being done.

I’ve seen mixed results for this! I’ll have to dig deeper on this and get back to you :). In the meantime, I’d say swap to olive oil, vegetable oil, or avocado oil and see if it makes a difference :).

@@nourishcenter ok thanks so much for responding 💚❤️

​​​@@sherb8765 For me coconut oil sent my cholesterol through the roof. I went up over 60 points in 4 months when I incorporated coconut oil products. Took me 8 months to get it back to where it was. I have found out my cholesterol levels are very sensitive to foods or products that have high saturate fat. Coconut oil is almost 100% saturated fat. Listen to your body and adjust accordingly.

@bjmorgan3092 thanks so much . That's good information. I went dairy free and ate a lot of vegan cheese which has coconut oil and my cholesterol was sky high at my last appointment. I'm in the process of trying to get it down now.

Isn’t vegetable oil inflammatory? 🤔

May you clarify what HF is? There are many acronyms used in healthcare!

Thanks!
