Dr. Paul Mason - 'Saturated fat is not dangerous' 

Good one!

He he😂

@CheapSushi Ha! Ha! Yep. Dr Paul Mason. Brilliant Courageous young man. So far apparently no repercussions from the Australian medical heirachy. GoodOnya!!!!!! From Australia

@@elizabethwinsor5140 daft comment.

The person who should be "punished" is Dr Mason if he's really telling his patients that pattern A LDL particles are "benign". He's flat out wrong and giving dangerous advice.

very good diet you will live long the sardines will give you the omega 3 needed

@@elizabethwinsor5140 not the brightest crayon in the pack are you ?

Scar tissue and hydrodynamics cause atherosclerosis.

This is a weak point in the talk. No doubt that macrophages and LDL are involved but I have heard other explanations of the mechanism whereby the blood vessels contract and harden. Still, the root of the problem is the Pattern B LDL so that is the main point here.

Ignorance? Blind?

Because most people don't have the attention span of anything beyond six minutes. They require bullet point simplicity, spoon fed highlights and have no interest in understanding the depth or methodology.

Cos they are full of sugar

It's calories in calories out, if you eat more than your body needs you are going to gain no matter the source of these calories.

@@ivailoivanov01 Sandra Westley if you watch his videos he’s saying the opposite to what you’ve just said, I have just watched it, that is the 1970 outlook, outdated I have done that for years it doesn’t work.

@@ivailoivanov01 WRONG.

@@ivailoivanov01 that is true. The laws of thermodynamics imply this, just like how the first law of biology state that humans follow the laws of thermodynamics. HOWEVER, it is wrong to say that biological factors such as hormones don't play a part in affecting weight, just like how it's also wrong to say that the laws of thermodynamics does not affect weight. In diets such as fasting or keto, a calorie deficit is already given.

Many of them, like Ancel Keys, who was perhaps the most responsible for the upside-down dietary recommendations, are dead. Governments and corporations tend to protect individuals from the consequences of their actions. Then again... the first significant damages from Monsanto* were awarded in court for exposure to glyphosate... Around $285 million in exchange for lethal cancer, if memory serves. It remains to be seen if the cancer patient actually collects, or if this goes like the Valdez, where Exxon spent as much or more than the awarded amount to stall having to pay. Like the tobacco industry, it was revealed that Monsant knew that RoundUp herbicide caused cancer, and other health issues, while it was claiming it's best selling product was safe. Years ago, Monsanto even said it was suitable for organic farming and gardening!! Now glyphosate is found in most foods, breast milk, even RAIN! And the so-called 'inert ingredients' in Round Up may be more toxic than the glyphosate. *In violation of our laws intended to prevent any one company/corporation from becoming too large and powerful, Monsanto was recently allowed to be aqcuired by/merge with Bayer. This makes it a multi-national corporation. Monsanto already conducted itself as though it was above the law; but multi-national corporations are loyal to which nation? Oh, and Bayer (under a former name) was one of the companies that profited from the slave labor provided by the concentration camps of WWII.

That should be the case ... but it isn't. If the decision makers were held liable then they would base it ONLY on science and not any other motivator.

billytheweasel The whole point of this is depopulation and control. The elites are above the law (not morally, they just happen to control everything), so it’s impossible to stop them.

Voters should stop voting for politicians willing to push this sort of evidence-free policy on them. Then it would end. But voters insist on ignoring the irrationality of government and shifting blame onto anyone else.

@michael plemel makes one question why glyphosate is in childhood vaccines, flu shots etc.

This is undoubtedly the best comment on earth.

EXACTLY! This is why people with VERY low LDL also end up having cardio vas diseases as they don't change diet and continue to take a high glucose diet which glycosylates LDL surface and finally it gets entangled with macrophages. This is the same reason why STATINS DON'T WORK, as they only lower cholesterol COUNT and doesn't target the root cause!

Love it. I always knew the innate immune response was a large cause of disease in the body.

look for Robert Lustig's, he proved the cause of insulin resistance as well. Turns out it's not the glucose that's the problem, it's the fructose (and sucrose).

@aleksa15 1 the presentation

What's the most popular cooking oil in Romania?

Just curious, have you changed your diet following this advice, and seen any difference in your blood test results? I’ve been gradually moving in this direction over the past five or six years, giving up most carbs and sugar, but haven’t really changed much on the oils side.

Cook with animal fat, much better for you. Cut the supplements, go carnivore and you'll thank me later.

switch the Himalayan salt for sea or Celtic salt (11 minerals vs 72 and 81)

@@wellyforpm All are NaCl with some poisonous impurities. Go for a pure NaCl substitute that contains 40-50% KCl, MgCl and some iodine for the best results. It’s not less Na you need, but more K.

Himalayan salt sounds romantic but doesn't come from the Himalayas but from the middle east in caves. No better than ordinary rock salt but great for making pretty pink lamps.

Himalayan Salt is the biggest marketing gimic ever because most does not come from the Himalayas. Fleur de Sel from France and Celtic Sea Salts that are hand harvested and dried way better.

I'm having the same experience in regards to hunger signals. Been a carb addict my whole life. Never overweight, always very active, but now have prediabetic morning blood sugars in my 50ties. Low carb for the past month is fixing this, plus I'm now satiated on good fats. On my way to healing! 🙂

This is awesome. Congrats Michelle

Idk if that’s science. Maybe it’s just the cold weather that dries your skin

@Alex It's a fact however that you are what you eat. We are made of meat and fat. And saturated fat has always been a darn good part of the human diet. It sounds so corny to say "you are what you eat" but you soon find out how sick you can get if you eat badly.

Very good comments - I might actually consider eating a french fry once a year if it were to be cooked in organic tallow/lard. Until then, never. Do you know, when Dr. Mason was talking about emulsifiers, if dairy that is not labeled "raw" is considered highly processed and/or with emulsifiers? Luckily we can buy organic raw again in my area, albeit at a high cost, but worth it.

Great information but not much use in the supermarket as omega 6:omega 3 ratios can’t be seen or worked out on a packet of butter or lard. Don’t be fooled by ‘organic’ either. That just means the grain used to fatten the animal was organic. You need to do a lot of research to find 100% grass-fed animal products.

Every child should be taught that 'Just because it is on the Internet, that does not make it true.' And even if it is printed in a book. Just because a teacher says something, that does not make it true. Or any other person in a position of authority. Even the president.

NEW video from Harvard prof. dr Karin Michels states that COCONUT OIL is poison!

But without offering an iota of evidence.

There is an old saying, 'Follow the money.' Please see the article on www.Mercola.com about the INCORRECT information against coconut oil. One of the problems with the info is that they are saying coconut oil is bad because it contains saturated fats, and the American Heart Assoc* and thereby the gov't officials (under pressure from and/or revolving between jobs in industry that profits from selling seed ('vegetable') oils) have refused to look at the real research that shows humans are healthier on real fats from animals, and coconuts. (They rail against saturated fat, but fail to acknowledge that animal fats also contain unsaturated fat, and margarine contains some saturated fat! Folks, this is not about science!) Another issue is that the tiny bit of research they chose to pay attention to was done with hydrogenated coconut oil- even though the officials finally got around to acknowledging that hydrogenated oils are harmful. *A tiny little groups of doctors before Proctor & Gamble gave them millions to demonize animal fats, so they could offer their Crisco as a supposedly 'healthier' alternative. Originally made from cottonseed oil, it was partially hydrogenated to make it solid for use in candle and soap making. Once the light bulb was invented, they needed a new market - so they began marketing the candle and soap ingredient as a lard substitute. Seed oils, cleverly but deceptively marketed as 'vegetable', were originally used as machine lubricants. Rudolf Diesel designed his engine to run on peanut oil (not actually a nut, but a legume).

Gonzo the great Mainstream lies.

We should compile a list of dietary tricks to get loved ones to eat less carbs, more protein and sufficient fat. I suggest raspberries as a pudding as she loves them, but serve them with Greek yoghurt and pecans. Instantly a hidden 10g protein and about 15g of quality fats!👍. Homemade pesto (olive oil and Parmesan) on the roast chicken does a good job too.

Yup, this has happened to me. Inadvertently cut most carbs out of my diet a week ago in an attempt to stop eating so much bread and pasta. My depression and anxiety has completely disappeared, I can wake up every morning feeling fully rested, which I haven’t been able to do for 15 years and I’m never hungry.

Are you able to swinn? That is a great way to exercise and move the body without stressing the joints. Gentle movement, like Tai Chi, is also helpful. It isn't really exercise, but it helps the circulation of blood, lymph, and the fascia (newly discovered to do more than just help hold us together). Good luck!

Jefferdaughter no cant swim knees move to much. Tai Chi I'm not sure but I'll look into that I did buy a vibration plate that's supposed to be like running.

@@KetoMama777 - That's rough. Of course moderate exercize is beneficial, but it really does not help weight loss, in spite of what so many people think. Glad you have been able to lose the weight you wanted to and get healthy anyway. Sure hope you can find something that helps your body to heal those knees! If the cartilage is the problem, it has no circulation, and relies on movement of the joint to help those cells bring in nutrients and get rid of cellular waste products. Movement also helps, blood and lymph circulation, of course, if you can move those joints at all. Take care, and best of luck!!

Same with Australia 99% grass fed

Sounds delicious

I believe we take these kind of stories as facts, without thinking it through. I heard the same story in my own country, but what it doesn't tell is that many of the people in the past were religious and were fasting according to the Orthodox calendar. This alone accounts for more than 200 days of fasting in a year. Also, meat was expensive and hence not consumed daily up to 40-50 years ago. Most people were eating meat once-twice a week and the rest vegetables, legumes, whole grains and dairy products.

Where can we find your recipes?

Must be thin books. Im carnivore for 5mths, and all i eat is a steak on a plate, once a day. Can't think of many ways to spin that.

Oh yeah........but isn't truth like velvet, though? How they despise us -we win when we see through their shenanigans and dodge their constant bullets of destruction and at the same time not let it get to us.

Great observation.

The counter-intuitive research finding (that Pattern B has better outcomes than Pattern A) is discussed at the end of the original paper under "Strengths and Limitations". See link below. A diffcult read but the point is that the paper's findings refers to subjects after a heart attack. Conclusions about the rest of the population can't be drawn. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5698121/

@De 2 marginalen did you not watch the video?

I finally understand the LDL bugaboo after watching this.

Joe Rogan is controlled opposition, sold out satanist

@@LegitoArt Good. Hail Satan.

Yeah it's kind of mad that we don't see more of that. I'm a proponent for no oil low fat whole food diets health. Truth is you can use research to show anything you want to. My issue is that most of the research I've seen which says saturated fats is good is funded by dairy and meat industries so I just don't know what to believe. It's the same ad politics. Industries should not be able to donate to have research done. Or if they do it should not be allowed to be published in peer reviewed journals

@@RJBynon Diabetes is the top listed risk factor for heart disease. Diabetes is literally Insulin Resistance, like he mentioned in the video. The meat industry is factory farms right, then why do all these 'Keto' and health people advise grass fed beef?

Just looked at the study. Paul mislabeled A and B. The graph is correct, but he misread the graph. A is lower density/ oxidized.

he did misread this and brings it up in several talks.. worrying for sure

If you are still looking for answers, check out Ivor Cummin's presentations on RU-vid. Dr. Paul Mason has another video here on blood tests, what they mean for those on low carb high fat/keto diets, but you may have to convert the results for the units used in the U.S.A. Cummins cuts to the chase, and speaks in US units.

You're absolutely right on that. Whatever he stated regarding pattern A/pattern B did not make any sense.

i read from other comments that He had mistakenly mislabeled the oxidized cholesterol and non oxidized cholesterol, basically switched the labels around Pattern B is large and non oxidized LDL, while pattern A is small dense oxidized LDL

@@juhotuho10 That is what I thought at first also, bu that is not what the study concluded. You can look the results up online. The title is in the slide. People with pattern A (large, fluffy) were at significantly higher risk of dying compared to pattern B (small dense). He is claiming the opposite. Either he's just wrong or I'm crazy and don't understand what I'm reading.

Exactly! I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed. Also: 12:16 "If we assume that Pattern B is bad, which the data clearly suggests it is" The data suggests that both Pattern A and Pattern B are bad, if 12-25% of the participants died after 5 years. And Pattern A seems twice as bad as Pattern B to me. This would make the statement at 12:40 "High LDL cholesterol, but safe" even worse. Please tell me that I have a lapse of judgement, otherwise I am honestly questioning his credibility and ability as a doctor.

I checked the study abstract, it cleary says the opposite of what Dr. Mason lectures here, A and B are NOT swapped. However it also says "..after adjusting for important patient and treatment characteristics. We additionally adjusted for LDL cholesterol (LDL-C) and triglyceride levels and used directly measured LDL-C and non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol as exposures..." (they observed of 2476 patients). The adjustments are not explained so I guess we can't tell if this study indicates anything at all. 🤷‍♂

I saw most of them in the video alone. It's a little inconvenience but you can hand-type what you read into your web search.

Maybe you could get in touch with them and offer to do that. Or you could post them in the comments. Many viewers would appreciate that, I'm sure. They are handing us so much value for free, (except for the info on us Google is harvesting by tracking what we watch, when we watch it, and every comment we make...) that asking for them to take on even more work to post the references in the description just seems... unkind.

Exactly this

Exactly. Makes the conclusions obsolete

You are right: Obviously, mortality for B is not "90 %". B pattern has the lowest mortality. The study says: " Compared with LDL pattern A, pattern B was significantly associated with reduced all-cause and non-CV mortalities with a trend for lower CV mortality." (Association of Low Density Lipoprotein Pattern with Mortality after Myocardial Infarction: Insights from the TRIUMPH Study)

Those graph lines are likely just mis-marked. They should be reversed I'm sure. Oxidized LDL is definitely the dangerous kind, not non-oxidized.

@@davepeterschmidt5818 No, not reversed. According to the study: "In 2476 patients hospitalized for MI, LDL pattern (A [large, buoyant], A/B [mixed], and B [small, dense]) was established by ultracentrifugation using Vertical Auto Profile." In the conclusion: "Compared with LDL pattern A, pattern B was significantly associated with reduced all-cause and non-CV mortalities with a trend for lower CV mortality after MI, independent of LDL-C and triglycerides." So that particular study actually says, pattern B was associated with reduced mortality after myocardial infarction. Kinda flies directly in the face of what is being said here and I'd love to see that addressed. [Study: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/29050980]

He was definitely wrong there, but if you look at the specific study, you would see it wouldn't matter anyway. There were big distribution differences (more pattern A individuals), different age groups, and people on stations and other cholesterol lowering drugs. Couple that with the fact that this is a group of people who just had a heart attack, it likely makes it less applicable to heathy people. The difference in CV death was 1 out of 100 vs 2.4 out of 100 people... I would hate to be that 1.4th person, but the difference in risk is pretty small and may be caused by something else.

I spotted that as well. It is clear from the downward slope that this must be a survival axis. So pattern A was the worst, tbe opposite of what Paul was saying. Maybe he mislabelled the A and B lines. Maybe ldl patterns A and B are not standardisef.

Obviously, mortality for B is not "90 %". B pattern has the lowest mortality. The study says: " Compared with LDL pattern A, pattern B was significantly associated with reduced all-cause and non-CV mortalities with a trend for lower CV mortality." (Association of Low Density Lipoprotein Pattern with Mortality after Myocardial Infarction: Insights from the TRIUMPH Study). - A Kaplan-Meier estimator was used.

@@christopherturner1547 Something doesn’t add up. The paper is saying the results show that people with damaged ldl particles live longer than people with no damaged ldl particles. That is counter-intuitive to say the least and should lead to everyone trying to damage their ldl as a protective measure! I think not a good plan. Methinks that something else is going on. Maybe the study team’s use of data correction needs to be analysed for skulduggery?

@@davidthoreau6353 Yep, I've read it too. Researchers are actually surprised about the outcome and claiming that the paradox could be explained by the mere fact that this is epidemiological study, not an RCT. Still, it was strange to inctude this study in the slides.

The ratio of omega 3 to omega 6 is whats important, if you cant find omegas 3, lower your omega 6s and that should be beneficial

Eat fatty fish regularly, like salmon and sardines.

What about the rest his lecture?

Great question. That is what I have read also, and have heard other physicians say in presentations. This means we have to get DHA and EPA from animal sources. Yet the proponents of 'plant based' diets always tell us that we can get all the Omega 3s we need from plants. In addition to fish oil, 100% grassfed meats (beef, lamb) and milk may be better sources than we think. The numbers cited in research are always from conventionally raised meat, milk, and butter. Organic milk (though some industrial 'organic' dairies cheat) there is a requirement in USDA organic standards that the cows get at least a certain percentage of their diet from pasture during the growing season. It is not surprising that, like the meat, the Omega 3 content of organic milk is much higher than 'conventional' milk. The milk of a local farm that feeds its cows only pasture and hay - 100% 'grassfed' was tested- and found to have 7 X more Omega 3 than the milk from organic farms in the area that also fed grain and soy. It may also help that the grassfed farm has only Jersey cows, and their milk averages around 5% butterfat. 'Whole' milk in supermarkets is standardized to 3.25% butterfat. Holstein (the black and white dairy cows) herds in the area average around 3.5 to 3.8% butterfat. That percentage goes up on a forage-based diet (pasture, hay, etc) and down with increased feeding of grain/soybeans. The efficiency of the digestion of forages - pastures, dried pasture aka hay, and even fermented pasture plants - drops when cattle, and other ruminants like sheep, goats, etc, are fed grain - since it takes a different set of microbes to digest grains and soybeans than it does to digest pasture plants.

No, you're absolutely right. Conversion of ALA to DHA is highly variable due to sex, genetics and environmental factors, and no individual has any idea how well they are able to perform this conversion. For males, the conversion rates are very low, somewhere between 0-4%, typically about 1%. For women, conversion rates are higher on average, but still highly variable, perhaps about 5-9% for adolescent females, and lower than that, typically for adult women. This is not at all a reliable way of obtaining adequate amounts of DHA for _anyone._

Never. Just take those statin pills for big mama pharma.

Thanks for pointing this out.

Thanks for your comment. One note: The Conclusion the authors write does not always match the data they include in the rest of the paper. Sometimes they will state, as in the example you provided, that 'the results were not as expected', and then some version of more study is needed... or there must have been some confounding factor they were unaware of... or the results were skewed because of a small sample size... or the like. However, I have seen several conclusions that made me wonder if the authors had read their own paper. Since many will see only the abstract of many research papers, and the conclusion is generally included in the abstract, many people will get a very different impression of what the results of the study actually were than the conclusion those readers may have reached if they read the entire paper and looked at the data for themselves. Aside from confirmation bias...

I stopped the video and searched the comments to see if anyone else saw this. How could he make an error like this in a presentation?

Same for me, anyone has an explanation on this mistake ??

Regardless of that study, "According to the current consensus, 2 main phenotypes, A and B, are defined based on plasma LDL profile, with intermediate A/B phenotype lying in between [11]. The phenotype A is characterized by the predominance of large buoyant LDL (lbLDL) and the phenotype B by the predominance of sdLDL [12, 13]. Phenotype B was reported in a number of diseases, including metabolic disorders [14, 15], obesity [16, 17], and type 2 diabetes [18, 19] and is considered as a risk factor of coronary heart disease (CHD). Moreover, this phenotype was associated with the elevated plasma triglyceride (TG) level, reduced HDL cholesterol (HDL-C), and high-hepatic lipase activity [20]. The predominance of sdLDL is currently accepted as a risk factor for CVD by the National Cholesterol Education Program (NCEPIII)" www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5441126/
