@bschermd @lowcarbGP I do like ♥️ the hypothesis in the book by Dr. Uffe Ravnskov

Fat and Cholesterol are GOOD for You!

What REALLY Causes Heart Disease

[David Diamond @LDLSkeptic]

I had an enjoyable discussion with Ken Berry this week about LDL cholesterol fears, a topic that is often expressed whenever low carb diet concerns are raised. I covered literature that’s not taught in medical school, such as the great health and longevity of those with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH).
I also critiqued the movie Cholesterol Code, which I think left the viewer with the impression that people with high LDL on a ketogenic diet may be at increased risk for developing CVD. The movie showed an individual with a psychiatric disorder which was reversed with keto diet, but her doctor had her add carbs to her diet to lower her LDL, presumably because high LDL on a keto diet is potentially harmful. Also, much to my sadness, one keto dieter went on a statin because he had such high LDL.
To any provider that would endorse either approach, which I abhor, there are two questions that should be asked which were not addressed in the movie.
1 - Is there any evidence that metabolically healthy people with extremely high LDL develop more coronary events and death compared to metabolically healthy people with low or intermediate LDL?
2 – Is there any evidence that lipid lowering in metabolically healthy people with extremely high LDL reduces coronary events and death?
The answer to both questions is “no”.
If not LDL, then what causes some FH people to die young? I covered some of the research on FH as a hypercoagulation disorder, which explains premature CVD in a subset of FH individuals.
I also addressed why LDL can be associated with CVD.
Last thing is the critical influence on blood vessel health is the glycocalyx, again, a topic that was not mentioned in the movie,
If you're on the fence about your high LDL and your doctor is pressuring you to take a statin, or any other kind of drug to lower LDL, then you should find this podcast of great value.

@HalCranmer Fasting means that you body will start ‘eating’ your own fat for energy - fat does not ‘swimm’ in blood - but LDL ( low density lipoproteins ) do 😏 https://t.co/m9I9BxmoKc

[David Diamond @LDLSkeptic]

We have published a letter that addresses the flawed view that⬆️LDL causes heart disease in ppl with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH). I urge FH ppl to share our letter with your doc before you take a statin, which has harms w/o evidence of benefit in FH

Surely every cardiologist who performs coronary angiography on his/her patients whose blood cholesterol concentrations have been measured, must know this.

@robertlufkinmd Supplementing D is not necessary 🌞

Low carb since 2013

I have not supplemented D vitamin - only summer sunshine (live in Denmark) 🌞 and magnesium supplement.

For many of us it's like the world suddenly changed overnight. Still trying to come to terms with it. 49 years of junk science and industry-driven propaganda suddenly eliminated. Imagine - Dr Robert Atkins and not Ancel Keys, was correct all along. In my experience, three people made a huge difference to my understanding of healthy nutrition: @drericwestman (with Steve Phinney and Jeff Volek) wrote the book that convinced me to adopt a low-carb diet; @garytaubes and then @bigfatsurprise dismantled the fake science behind the 1977 US Department of Agriculture DIetary Guidelines. Thousands of others have contributed hugely but it was those three who changed my life by having the courage to stand up for the truth. @TheNoakesF @NutritionNetwrk.
But it took the courage of @realDonaldTrump and @RobertKennedyJc to take this truth to the world.

[Benjamin Bikman @BenBikmanPhD]

A lot of people point to Japan as a bastion of good health. Low obesity rates, high life expectancy, lean population eating rice and fish. But it's deceptive. As much as I love Japan, they aren't as healthy as people think.

Let's start with obesity. Yes, Japan has far lower obesity rates than the US. But this simply reflects a critical biological reality. Japanese populations tend to have fewer but larger fat cells. This means the average Japanese body type simply can't gain as much weight. But when weight gain does occur, each pound has a disproportionately higher metabolic impact.

This is why Japanese individuals develop type 2 diabetes at much lower BMIs than Caucasians. In one study, the mean BMI for diabetic Japanese was just 25.4. Barely into "overweight" territory. Meanwhile diabetic white Americans averaged 31.8 and African Americans 34.6.

Regarding diabetes, people assume Japan must have dramatically lower rates given their lean population. The reality is that Japan sits around 8% diabetes prevalence. The US is around 11%. Certainly a relevant difference, but also not the massive gap people imagine.

Interestingly, Japanese Americans have diabetes rates much higher than both native Japanese and the general US population (despite having much lower average body weight). Furthermore, between 1997 and 2007, the number of Japanese with diabetes or prediabetes nearly doubled, bumping from 13.7 million to 22.1 million. And it's only getting worse.

The thin appearance is the deception.

🔥BREAKING: The secret to living to 100+? HIGH CHOLESTEROL!

A massive Swedish study tracking over 800,000 people for 35 years just revealed: Every single centenarian had HIGH total cholesterol. The higher your LDL, the longer you live.

Mind blown yet? Dr. Ben Bikman exposes the lies about cholesterol being "bad."

Key findings from the Sweden AMORIS study:
- All centenarians: High total cholesterol, high iron, low glucose.
- Highest LDL-C = longest lifespans (backed by Dr. Uffe Ravnskov & Dr. Malcolm Kendrick).

Dangers of low cholesterol:
- LDL <70 mg/dL → 3X higher risk of brain-bleeding strokes.
- Total <180 mg/dL → Skyrocketing cancer & dementia rates.
- <150 mg/dL → Increased chronic diseases like cancer & autoimmunity.
- Statins? They don't extend life—damage mitochondria & hormones instead.

Why your body CRAVES cholesterol:
- Builds every cell & powerhouse mitochondria.
- Absorbs vital vitamins A, D, E, K.
- Powers digestion via bile acids.
- Supercharges immunity against infections, viruses, bacteria, pathogens—even cancer.
- Fights depression, suicide, dementia & cognitive decline.
- Shields from toxins, heavy metals, strokes, heart disease & osteoporosis.
- Fuels ALL steroid hormones (low chol = low testosterone & libido).
- Lowers all-cause mortality risk.

Pro tip: Go low-carb, load up on nutrient-dense animal foods. Grass fed beef, pastured eggs, wild caught seafood...Dump seed oils, sugar & processed garbage. Target TG/HDL ratio <1.5 for elite heart health.

Tight budget like me?? Seek out a local farmer, butcher & farm market & make a 'bulk large sale deal' for beef at $5/lb & eggs $4/Dz

Are you ditching your statin yet? Tell me in the comments, I read every reply & do my best to respond to every question! If I miss your question...PLEASE DM direct message me! I truly care about you & your health!👇🔥

YOUR TRIGLYCERIDES REVEAL THE TRUTH LONG BEFORE YOUR BLOOD SUGAR AND HBA1C.

If your triglycerides are above 150 then your body is struggling to handle carbohydrates.

If your triglycerides are above 200, you are likely to have fatty liver and your HDL will drop.

If your triglycerides are above 250 then your post meal blood sugar will likely be high.

If your triglycerides are above 400, your entire metabolic system is misfiring. Think of high carb, sugar and alcohol. Diabetes and fatty liver are almost guaranteed.

Triglycerides above 500, high risk of pancreatitis. Immediate dietary intervention needed.
