The longevity treatment no one’s talking about: Peter Attia, M.D. | mbg Podcast 

We are NOT overnurished, we are undernourished BUT OVERFED.

As a medical surgical RN, Dr Attia has confirmed a lot of things Ive suspected but never articulated when it comes to risks and healthspan. I can and do listen to him for hours. Awesome content always.

I am 70 years old i don't know any numbers i don't go to the doctors.what i do is eat mostly healthy.drink in moderation.i work out walk or cycle every where. and don't live in fear.

❤ this podcast!! 63 year old woman I’m good health and want to keep it that way. Take care and keep up your great work guys

Dr.Attia so bright , truthful great wish all doctors like him who really cares ♥️🇸🇽🇺🇸

My friend is 72 and his has been exercising all his life, can do the splits, high muscle mass, elite VO2 max, is on no meds. Eats 3 times daily clean and fresh food @

Thank you for your thoughtful response. Couldn’t agree more!

I have just started to read Peter's new book and will have to read it in small increments, as there is so much to learn and take notes on. I'm 63 now and have watched all of my grandmothers, aunts and my mom, degenerate and have made a promise to myself to take care of my health. My 90 year old mother is currently in a hospice bed and has so many health problems. Watching her suffer has just made me even more grateful that I have taken the initiative to care for my own well being. Great interview with Peter and thank you.

Great respect for Peter Attia's energy to spread the message. He is one of best sources for getting knowledge on healthy aging. Thank's a lot for publishing!

He’s the doctor we all need! No doctor I’ve ever had, had ever been anywhere near this level. We need better health care. We really need to be our own advocates. Doing our own research.😊

Enlightening, thank you. I have definitely been in the dietary-heavy camp for the last few years. Needs a reassessment.

I downloaded “Outlive” so far I can’t stop reading it. Thank you for sharing all of this valuable information.

I loved your comment on the bell curve Peter ! We are each of us such individual little chemical factories

Brilliant interview! Thank you!

Social life and interactions are also a part of longevity

Peter, I’ve been following your research and spreading the word to all my family members and friends I’m 68 I do 4 to 6 miles with my dog every day. One thing I done that helps me a lot is my morning water regiment, which includes pink Himalayan salt and electrolyte powder to keep me hydrated.

You can say that exercise is most important, but I am in my late 60’s and have many friends in there 60-70’s who have exercised well, but end up with a knee, or hip, or shoulder replacements due to bad diet, ie SAD .

Niacin can lower ApoB

It seems strange to me that Attia so eagerly takes and recommends these meds - statins - that screw with the body. I would think that he'll likely one day see that as folly.

Jason, thx for asking the what does Peter do questions.

The studies are conflicting on many of these subjects and until theres convincing evidence, its best to take them with a grain of salt. Eat real food, get sufficient protein, stay active, maintain a healthy weight, and enjoy life. Stop worrying about minutia such as vo2max and exercising at some special zone. Is that really going to make a significant impact on your lifespan or healthspan? Where's the evidence?

I'm a firm believer in intermittent fasting, long term (5-10 days) fasting and giving whole blood 3 times per year to improve heart and cardio health....

Kettlebell, mace and heavy club training is like the Swiss Army knife of fitness. Your gonna get strong and your cardio is going to vastly improve. Win, win.

Doctors offices are too casual when taking blood pressure so accuracy suffers. You need to be sitting rested/relaxed for 5 minutes before taking blood pressure. You should not have just had coffee or caffeine in the past hour. You need to not talk or move while it is being taken. You should not have to go to the restroom. Holding your urine to relieve yourself will raise your blood pressure. Your blood pressure changes thru out the day and is impacted by stress levels. It is best to take your blood pressure at home at the same time every day under controlled circumstances and track the results. Too many people have white coat hypertension just from going to the doctors office. Those with hypertension should be encouraged to address this with life style changes along with medication if that does not work. Doctors offices should tell people that lowering their weight thru diet and exercise may have the same result or better than medications. Nutrition and exercise education should be the first option in treatment.

Dr. KenDBarry has a lot of insights on some of this info. For longevity studies I had always found Durk Pearson's take on this issue to be enlightening. (Life Extension) I don't care for his hairdo, but he and Sandy Shaw have been studying this for a long time.

Brilliant interview, Great questions, almost read my mind and great responses, simple,. and informative. Thank you

All in all a good common sense summary of healthy living advice ...... Except.... Yes the Cholesterol Hypothesis to heart disease. Peter says he just doesn't get why more doctors don't support it so maybe this will help. 1. Statins reduce your risk of having a heart attack or stroke by an absolute 1% with all the side effects. (Blood glucose, CoQ10, Muscle soreness, increase in CAC and Lp(a)....) Why would you do this for 1% when you can get much more from other options and no side effects. 2. ApoB is not atherogenic, yes there are cholesterol crystals and ApoB particles in plaque along with a bunch of other stuff , the most dangerous being Apo(a) small and prone to oxidization, again Lp(a) didn't cause the problem in the artery but just their to help out. We didn't get born with our livers making a pathogenic molecule that penetrates perfectly healthy endothelial linings of arteries and in fact it's impossible for a molecule that size to get through a healthy endothelial layer , we were beautiful designed that way. The problem occurs when there is damage from - high blood pressure, smoking , oxidation, cocaine, inflammation, high sugar diets resulting insulin, anything that damages the endothelial layer. 2. We probably don't need Lp(a) as it's a bit of an ancestral hangover to assist clotting in the case we didn't have enough vitamin C in our diets. If you are going to eliminate something then at least take out the right molecule , Statins can actually increase Lp(a) which makes no sense at all and can make the situation worse. However after years of statins and billions of dollars it would be a very big person or company to come out and say we got it wrong. Anyway, hope that helps explain a couple of the reasons and would be great if Peter looked into this a bit more.

Its my understanding of the avg age of death over a hundred years ago is wrong to say 40... because nearly 50% of children died before they made it to 5 and it knocks the average down falsely making it look like 40 was the average. If i go to graveyards in my city i can easily find so many graves from the 1800's with people who died in their 70's and higher. if there are 4 people and 2 die before 5 (since nearly half of all people did die before 5) then even if they made it to 75 years old the 2 that died early would knock that average down to 40.

Awesome. I will get the book.

Really tough to answer the question of correlation vs causation concerning why strength and high vo2 max is so effective in promoting health span. (People that lift weights and do cardio consistently are gonna tend to be the type of people that also eat healthy).

I’ve listened to many of Peter’s podcasts and subscribe to this channel. I’m grateful for the good insight I’ve received. Not trying to be a contrarian but I’m surprised that statins are looked on so favorably when they raise blood sugar - another significant risk factor for cvd. I’ve also heard that their absolute (as opposed to relative) risk reduction is minimal. I think our understanding of cholesterol and its sub components is an evolving science. I prefer to eat a healthy diet and control the factors I can without excessive testing and pharmaceutical intervention.

After watching this I am seriously considering going back on Pitavastatin and Zetia. I have about 6 bottles saved full of Zetia (ezetimibe), I had an endocrine doctor tell me my Cholesterol levels were way too low, because I was taking it and also taking Atorvastatin with it. Normally I have elevated cholesterol levels and low thyroid (being treated) Anyways she cancelled my prescription for Zetia, so screw her, I quit taking Atorvastatin it bothered my muscles, aches and pains in my shoulders neck, it was real. I eventually tried Rosuvastatin, and well I complained a little on that too, and got prescribed Pitavastatin and that one has no side effects, but I got really dizzy one night, and just stopped taking it, not sure if it had anything to do with my vertigo and confusion.

The best explanation of cardiovascular deseise I've found so far is Dr Malcolm Kendrick's book "The Clot Thickens".

I’m not understanding his take on vo2 max. According to what he says, elite endurance athletes should all live to 110. And they just don’t.

Dr. Attia is very smart. There are many that disagree with LDL being bad, and many studies also agree that LDL does not cause atherosclerosis. One question no answered by Dr. Attia and others who consider LDL bad is: If LDL is so bad and causes clotting in arteries, why then does high LDL not cause clotting in veins? The concentration is the same, yet atherosclerosis does not occur in veins. The answer is quite beautifully explained by Dr. Malcom Kendrick. Do look him up.

I appreciate all your research. One area I have personally been working on for about 30 years is the effects of blood sugar with performance. I am a cyclist, swimming, climber, hiker. As a cyclist I have monitored my blood sugar throughout many long endurance rides. One thing I try to achieve is a relatively steady blood sugar reading. But I have noticed that when cycling up into the 80 to 85% effort I do much better when my blood sugar has been elevated. Normally I will induce the rise by eating 1/2 a banana or other simple sugar, not to exceed 11 grams. It’s ongoing work trying to get accurate results. I run on dual fuel fat/carbs and am trying to find a formula to apply to a mixed bag of cycling efforts. I hope you can direct me to some research in the field. Thanks, Charles Samson

Getting my protein, as a Vegan Female @ nearing 50 years old, is a challenge but now that I know what the facts are about my personal intake by using a tracking app (Cronometer), I am getting better at optimizing my diet. My main tactic is to add whole cooked soybeans to almost everything: smoothies, sauces, chili & soups, stir fry, even fruit salad, On top of all other protein sources. I now get at least 0.9 grams per pound and often 1.2 @ my 130 pound goal. + @ least 10 hrs of exercise per week unless extended fasting.

Don’t get sidetracked by Attia’s claim about “life expectancy.” People are not generally living longer but rather the actual advancement has not been in medical care but in nutrition and sanitation. Look at the first presidents, Washington-67, would have almost certainly lived longer if not for doctors bleeding him to death, Adams-90, Jefferson-83, Madison 85 who smoked from 8 years old, Monroe-73, J.Q Adams-80, Jackson-78, Van Buren-79. There was no allopathic medicine or supplements. None of them weight lifted or did aerobic ex. Now in the U.S. the avg. life expectancy is going down every year. We now have a situation where for the first time in history pre teens and even elite athletes are dropping dead routinely which has never been heard of. And we all know the reason for it.

Someday if we ever get past this healthcare for profit fiasco i predict they will look back at cholesterol as the cause of cardio vascular disease like how we look at using blood letting for illness. Its compete archaic junk science. Sugar habitually at high levels combined with standard systolic blood pressure causes the damage largely then the cholesterol has to habitually repair the damage until the artery is plugged. I think grain/seed is the primary food driving the majority of it. There is something inflamatory about grain/seed beyond the high glycemic nature which is also in other processed food/garbage. No animal was ever meant to eat grain all you have to do is look at how fat cows get in feed lots on grain. Additionally our dogs when fed the 70% grain based commercial doggie fast food get the same issues humans face, oral health issues, diabetes, cancer, obesity. Humans were eating primary animals before we invented agriculture. We supplemented we roots, tubers, etc and i realize its different in different places around the world. The point is no other animals are contending with health issues from diet becsuse they all eat whole food diets. The only time ruminants eat grain is in combination with the whole plant in nature. Hence why deer are lean not full of ectopic fat. So it makes zero sense eating animal products, one of natures whole foods would cause disease via cholestetol. Lions, etc circulation is saturated with cholesterol and they are not dealing with plugged arteries. Speaking of arteries, arteries are the only vessels damaged not capillaries or veins. If cholestetol were the mechanism for disease one would think veins and capillaries would also get damaged. Nothing about the cholestetol hypothesis makes sense. Yet habitually high blood glucose does because we can see the damage done to diabetics from habitually high blood sugar. Lastly the human body only has roughly 2000 calories/600 grams of glucose/glycogen storage in muscles and liver. We burn fat as out primary fuel source during rest and day to day activity. Only during high intensity activiy do we burn mostly glucose. Once we have our glycogen stores full from a high glycemic diet the liver then has to convert the remaining glucose into fat/triglycerides gor fuel or storage. Why would our primary fuel source fat, be the cause of disease. It should be pretty obvious by now that when you pour pure fuel sugar and oil, into a system designed for whole food. The liver becomes overwhelmed and the excess fat starts getting put ectopically in the liver and other organs, muscles. Because diabetes and other metabolic disorders arent glucose storage issues they are fat storage issues. Ectopic fat damages the organs and leads to metabolic dysfunction and that is the viscious cycle of metabolic disease. The processed grain and seed were invented by man and there is nothing natural about it.

When first doing One-Meal-A-Day I'd get headaches, but eventually I could go longer without any headaches. I understand Peter does not agree with Dr. Satchin Panda on the auto/mitophagy benefits of TRF.. but I wonder if Peter sees ANY positive adaptations the body is making? Would have liked to have heard some blood panel specifics.. for example, I understand ApoB as low as possible, which Harvard's Peter Libby suggests to get ApoB that low (20-30 mg/dl), requires $500/month of Bempedoic Acid to inhibit the liver from synthesizing cholesterol. But to keep the kidney healthy by maintaining blood-pressure at 120/80 (Sprint Trial), via zone 2 exercise , Angiotensin II Receptor Blockers (ARBs)... what should one's cystatin-c levels look like? Hope to find a like-minded doctor nearby (National Lipid Association). Regarding the Maui-Nui-Venison and UCAN Gronola (super starch).. I understand that protein is a structural nutrient, while carbs/fats are energy nutrients.. but if aiming for 2g protein per pound of body weight (50g per serving, 3x a day) what should the composition of the protein look like? 8g leucine mtor stimulator, 8g lycine, 2g, mythenian (high in eggs )? How often should one get a DEXA's Almi Index test? Regarding how to read scientific literature, I recommend Peter's AMA 30 Ep188 where they talk about Layne Norton Reps , The Cochrane Collaboration / Quant Hedge fund , and Austin Bradford Hill's Criteria to determine causality for epidemiologic /observational/accidental studies. I like the 43m that Hippocrates did not say 'first do no harm' and that Lewy body is a cross from a movement disorder (like parkinsons) and a dementing disease (like Alzheimer).. any thoughts on Braak's hypothesis that the brain inflammation is a result of mis-folded proteins traveling from the gut to the brain via the vagus nerve? Regarding the 57m30s mark on cardio and strength (farmer carry 2min).. I recommend his interview on Tim Ferris at the 1h23m where they talk about Zone2-5 regimen. John Coxtolstoy!

Thank you Dr Igudia for being the most trusted doctor among all, your professionalism was on a high standard, thank you for coming to help me out with my Type 2 Diabetes.

You lost me at Statins 😔

Searches of Dr, Robert Lustig and Dr. David Diamond(PhD) would be a good place to start. However, a search of “statins - relative vs. absolute risk” will yield an abundance of riveting discussions. Evaluating same with an open mind has provided me with a broad base of knowledge relative to diet, lifestyle, and supplements that resonate with me, and support my ongoing wellness journey.

Sleep apnea...the craziest thing is that it was the end to any military career 25 years ago, but in the last 8 years, they have been asking and sending fit, "healthy" older military (mostly men) for sleep studies. They are finding many don't snore, but have sleep apnea, some related to burn pits, some around planes and some unrelated to military life. Now Cpaps are not unusual in the military and it doesn't end people's career.

Fabulous

I’m a small 5’2 woman …70 years old with a small hands I’ve done plenty of farmers carries… it makes me so mad that I cannot do a pull up. Part of it is the size of my hand and the ability of my grip and I know part of it is my lats. I can hold a plank for two minutes with a 25 pound weight on my back. I can push and pull a 75 pound sled up and down the turf numerous times . I can (so far) leg press, 345 pounds. Frustrates me to no end that I cannot strengthen my grip enough to start being able to do pull ups

Peter would you use Berbarine instead of PCSK9 inhibitor and your mild statin prevastastin why not berbarine?

Please help me to understand? I am a long distance runner and engage in every possible sport. However, my grip strength, when tested in my early 50’s was poor, along with a high fitness score on all other levels ( strength, fitness, endurance, weight etc…score was high). I do have “Raynauds” , which is a circulatory problem in hands and feet. I have always had cold hands and feet and bursting of vessels since my mid 30’s. My mother does have more complex vascular issues since her mid 60’s & now in her old age of 92. and my condition is more severe now at 63. I feel like there is something to this hand strength but would like more info. Please

Dropped my total cholesterol and LDL levels 80 points in 8 weeks . Each now both in range . Stopped eating egg yolks - hence I was eating 10eggs a day . HDL 65 Triglycerides-45 stayed the same . My APO-b was was also checked -119 🤔 I’ll now check if that also dropped down . Hopefully 🤞 Outlive a must read - great information.

I'm taking liposamal vitc daily. Is this the lipds your talking about. Dr Levy the vit c guru Is a proponent of liposomal vit c . Thankyou. Great interview. 👍

Pharmaceutical SCAM is dead on. Marketing VS. true studies, peer reviewed, and honest. A trust reset is grossly needed. Ethics and "do no harm" are essential.

If I end up in the nursing home, I don’t want to have a longevity I rather die sooner than stuck in a nursing home for another 10 years.

The Hand Drives the Mind, The Ascent of Man!

I don´t Know. Of course tackling CVD would increase life span. But I think that the understanding of what is causing a general reduction in production of several molecules in the body is cornestone. Like blood flow tends to lower due to some sort of general problem and this causes organs and glands to start receiving less blood in an asymetrical way. And this causes then to reduce the production of molecules. Probably this theory is wrong but focusing in supplementation alone, despite being an advancement, don´t tackle a possible root cause. Blood unifies the whole body, so a disease started by it also would affect the whole body. Like aging

Peter is the best longevity guru 👊😎

The problem with most podcasts is that, how can I get these brands or methods in Europe? What would they be named or are they still not legal etc. Which makes it very difficult to hook up with those great advisors I see here.

You need to associate ApoB with level of metal toxicity at the cell/tissue level, mitochondria damage level and cell level bio-resonance where cell exchange of nutrients and waste is working effectively. Elements usually associated with fresh low level at babies. Sleep apnea is the imbalance between the sympathetic and non-sympathetic system. Gut health is key balance of bacteria in body metabolism. Protein imbalances are associated with liver toxicity and insulin load on liver and kidney where synthesis of vitamins and conversion of hormones, most important vit-D, are greatly affected.

I know Peter did a lot of work on insulin resistance but I am still confused by the 2 paradigms that contradict each other that clain to reverse insulin resistance.

How come we don't see particular longevity increases in people who exercise though? Still dying at the same average ages. Obviously not arguing with the myriad health benefits of exercise

wow!....somebody actually saying that cardio fitness is necessary. I call the stationary recumbent bike the miracle machine as it exercises both your heart/lung and your legs (where most of your muscle mass is). I cross train between the bike and jogging/trail running. I'm 73 no meds never get tired.

my ldl and apob always seem to track together, like exactly?

I have been saying a long time "exercise is the elixir of a long life"

@23:40 - there's no such a thing as 'no side effects ' when taking a drug and or interfering with your natural body response

,went on Keto and my Triglycerides went low and HDL went higher! Eat a lot of saturated fats!

10x is for everyday smokers , and also does not take into account other factors that may increase your chances

I’ve been hypertensive for 40 years but with a holter on the average is 118/75 over 24 hours. Beetroot juice drops mine 5 points. Probably because it raises my nitric oxide levels.

Thank you for measuring that insurance doesn't help cover a lot of important tests

Question: If cholesterol is what repairs the damage to the arterial wall and we no longer have that cholesterol to repair the damage then will we not eventually have an aneurysm?

Struggling with high BP and my inability to tolerate thus far high BP meds. Diuretic made my blood sugar rise, low sodium and was up 4X/night with trips to the restroom/disrupted sleep. Lowest dose. Beta blockers have given me insomnia,and one gave me muscle weakness ( history of chronic illness, fibro/neuro symptoms and med sensitivity), lisinopril made me feel horrible/increased chronic illness symptoms, and now losartan gave me ankle swelling on long trip and long boat ride and makes me feel exhausted/not able to exercise as much or participate in life thus far. My BP is normal upon rising but gets high during day with life/anxiety and always extremely high in doctors office!

Looked it up. Sounds like Mediterranean diet helps lower the ApoB.

Dave feldman made an experiment of how exercise lowered LDL, which makes sense as the phospholids, cholesterol was used to build and repar muscle. And children might have low bcs of utilization? Also some animals would not do well with low cholesterol, like migrating birds and bears.

What protein powder please?

I am curious what you would say about the many people who are much younger than typical and in relatively good health as far as anyone knows that are dropping dead from heart attacks. We recently had a friend, 56 and healthy, die from a heart attack while out for his morning bike ride.

I’ve known people who did everything that was considered, or perceived to be wrong, healthwise, and lived well into their 90s, and I’ve known exercise and nutrition fanatics that died in their 40s. Everyone is different, and there is no cookie-cutter solution to longevity! I grew up across the street from a lady who chain-smoked, and drank sodas nonstop. She died at 93 case closed.

I was curious about venison stick. Found it - Fat 1g, Sugar 0g, Protein 9g. $102.00 for box of 24 -OMG

Reverse aging...I have studied it for 30 years. The Red Reishi is #1 and cold water bathing ranks a close second.

I’m 37. I look thing and fit. ApoB 129, ldl 181. Been getting dizzy spells while exercising or on the daily. Xanax helps with it. I have bad anxiety. Don’t know if the symptoms are from anxiety or a health problem from cholesterol.

I would listen to Dr Erick Westman before Dr Attia. Dr Westman has over 20 years working with ketogenic diet and heart disease.

He mentioned the need for protein and actually high amounts of protein in the diet and if you compare this to the Blue Zone groups around the world who live to be 100 years old or more they typically have low protein in their diet or are all vegetarian. Can you explain this????

I wish I could just hire Peter Attiia or someone moderately equivalent as my health coach. I work very hard to increase my healthspan and am in excellent condition in general but especially for a 58 year old but there's to much emerging science and to many variables to track and apply.

Thank you what is APB

he changes kilograms with pounds regarding protein input. Confusing. Which is correct?

In the end of the day everyone is selling tablets surgery and suppliment No one talks about the role of chemical free food and cleaning of body from inside on regular Basis

And it's always about the host " what about a person like ME !! " This question comes up with this podcast always!! What about me !!! I , I and one more time I .

I always get suspicious when people say with a complacent and patronising look "you cant discuss this because its a fact" . Said "fact" as often as not is in need of definition and scrutiny. For example, Attia's sweeping generalisation thrown in your face (you cant discuss this dude!!) as fact:: "its a fact if you smoke you have a ten times higher chance of getting lung cancer". FACT?? That statement is way too simple and superfiical to be a relaible fact. What does he mean by "smoke"? "Smoke what? Tobacco? Grass? Plenty of people smoke who don't touch nicotene. Smoke a pipe or cigars or cigarettes?? Quite a difference you know. Smoking with or without inhaling? Inhaling is way more damaging to the lungs thats common sense. Smoking HOW MUCH??? If Peter Attia is claiming smoking say one tobacco cigarette a day increases your chances of getting lung cancer ten fold, he's making a pretty extreme claim. Just from Peter Attia's opening statement we can see how glib, dogmatic and arrogant doctors are and how they pull out statistics to confront lesser mortals with, ignoring the variables and side skipping the fact that statistics can be very misleading. The moment they open their mouths many health professionals reveal how smug, superior to non professional mortals, and satisfied with themselves they are. This Peter Attia (M.D.! M.D.!) a Stanford educated God in white, is a good example.

At 49:32 I believe he meant 1.5 to 2 grams of protein per KILOGRAM of body weight.

Why does Attia say bempedoic acid has no side effects? Anyone can look up any of the clinical trials and see there are a host of potential adverse effects. Yea, they don't seem to cause the muscle related issues that statins can cause, but that's completely different from saying they have no side effects at all.

There are some longevity scientists who would really disagree with peters protein intake. And peter is not a longevity scientist.

I have been listening dr Attia with great pleasure for years, sucking his knowledge as calf suck the cow. But I do not know what to think now. One sentence, when he mention taking drug (statin) which mess and disrupt production of cholesterol precursor and precursor as well for Q10 and many important hormones), with the goal to decrease ApoB level (LDL), put a question mark on everything I learned from him. What is going on? Does he got some generous subsidium for his good word for statins? Or it is just brain fog - one of the common statin side effect.

At around 23:00 dr attia names drugs but I cannot understand what he said after pcsk9 inhibitors. He spoke too quickly. Can someone please tell me what he said?

Is amino acids ( L arginine, Tourine or Carnitine ) Role ??

I wish he was my MD

I don't think we are overnourished. Overfed, definitely, to the point of obesity. But still malnourished, because we're eating foods that are high in calories while being very low in nutrients. (Which would be carbohydrates!)

Comment: what ever happened to factoring in HDL and triglyceride numbers in relationship to ApoB? What if HDL is high and triglycerides while ApoB high. Don’t they function holistically instead of analyzing one parameter only which is the rap on Western medicine

🙏

What do I do at 81years having never been more active than walking.

Does Peter have any patient over 70? I never hear him talk about actual old people .

He's quoting Donald Rumsfeld? That F'in guy, Chenny, Bush, Powel, Rice, they all should be in PRISON.

Also, I find it alarming for him to be discussing his own personal drug protocol that he’s devised for himself. It’s like he’s talking about supplements, but these are prescription drugs. all these drugs are focused on the heart and he has no formal training, as a cardiac surgeon or cardiologist. Proceed with caution…

On a keto diet which I started several years ago, my HDL increased to 104 and my trig decreased to 64. I eat saturated fat which keeps me off the carbs. My LDL is high. TC high…300s. We’ll see . I will not go on statins. Those people who die from CVD and have lowered their TC, and those with high levels of cholesterol who live longer?
