I wanted to create a video on the

cholesterol myth simply because it’s

been so brainwashed into our heads from

1950 more than any other myth that has

been in existence Ancel keys in 1950

researcher did this huge study to

correlate all these countries that got

he wanted to study different countries

in relationship to how many of them had

heart disease and and what they ate if

they were fat so he studied in half a

dozen countries and this is what he came

up with in a thumbnail sketch he found

that we have heart attacks here and we

have fat consumption here and he found

that these countries the more fat that

they consumed the more heart attacks

that they got so then he was kind of

like the father of the lipid heart

attack theory and he was untime magazine

and from there on out it kind of went

south and it’s just been brainwashed

into our minds but here’s a couple

little things he basically kind of

altered the information just a little

bit here’s two simple facts that he

manipulated the study wasn’t done with a

half a dozen countries it was done with

22 countries and he left out the

countries who ate a lot of fat and had

low heart disease okay so these

countries Norway and Holland he left

those out okay and there was other ones

as well and then he also left out the

countries who ate low fat that had high

amounts of heart attacks like Chile now

if you include all of the data and the

study it pretty much looks like this

okay it doesn’t give you any data it

doesn’t show any statistical

significance of people that eat

saturated fat actually have increased

cholesterol or people that have

increased cholesterol showed any

increase in heart disease in fact you

want to know how many studies in the

world that we’re done that actually

showed a relationship between these zero

none of them can

now that the way they wanted so what

they do with any other researcher would

do is basically manipulate the data and

make it look make it a line to what

their theory is so they can you know

obviously get more grants but the point

is that there is no study that shows

this relationship here and it’s

basically the greatest scam of the

century so let’s go into a little bit

more about what HDL is and LDL you’ve

heard HDL being good cholesterol and LDL

being bad cholesterol well it’s not even

cholesterol what does it stand for

high-density lipoproteins low-density

lipoproteins those are proteins they’re

not even cholesterol they’re envelopes

that carry cholesterol through the body

so the HDL so-called good cholesterol

carries the old cholesterol to the liver

to be recycled okay now why is our body

recycle cholesterol if it’s so bad why

does it recycle well the fact is it’s

not bad and we need cholesterol our

bodies make 2,000 milligrams of

cholesterol every single day near every

single cell and your body makes

cholesterol an egg would be 300

milligrams of cholesterol the truth is

that when you eat more eat less

cholesterol your body just makes more of

it because it acts as a band-aid to help

arteries that are corroding or getting

ulcers or getting damaged or getting

inflammation it acts to help as a

healing agent and that’s why cholesterol

is in the artery because it’s trying to

heal it as a scab it’s not the culprit

it’s the middleman most of our brains

are made from cholesterol to allow for

the insulation to travel with the nerves

we have all the cell walls are made from

cholesterol most of our hormones are

made from cholesterol especially the sex

ones so we need this cholesterol

desperately in order to survive if you

didn’t have cholesterol you wouldn’t be

able to survive and cholesterol is also

needed to make vitamin D to help convert

and increase the calcium into the blood

so then we can take the other vitamins

to transport into the bone

I’ve watched that video on vitamin k2

because that’s very important but

because it tells you the other half of

the story with clogged arteries so we

have this good cholesterol which carries

all cholesterol to the liver recycles it

that means it’s good and then the bad

cholesterol carries cholesterol from the

liver into the tissues okay but they’re

really not bad they’re just trance

they’re envelopes to transport calcium

back and forth out of the LDL only a

very small part of the LDL is really

really bad and it’s the very small

little particles because an LDL there’s

a lot of different there’s different

sizes you have these big fluff balls and

you’ve got these tiny little pebbles of

LDL and the real small ones are the ones

that form the plaquing around and inside

the tin inside the artery itself and

that’s why people are against them but

the purpose is the body’s is trying to

heal itself so now let’s talk about what

is the problem with heart attacks

okay well it’s inflammation it’s

inflammation because the wall of the

artery is damaged from inflammation and

it’s kind of like an ulcer it’s a

degenerative type situation and that’s

why the cholesterol and the calcium

comes in then to help heal it and then

that’s the clogging factor so what

causes inflammation sugar okay sugar is

the big culprit sugar is very

inflammatory and the amount of sugar

that we eat not only will spike

cholesterol and triglycerides because

the body’s trying to heal the damaged

arteries but it will clog up your

arteries more than anything and so and

that includes the whole grains that the

doctors are telling you it’s okay or the

government whatever so it comes down the

sugar so the problem is not the fat it’s

the sugar okay so that’s interesting the

other thing that causes inflammation is

having an adrenal problem as well

because your adrenal gland secretes

cortisol and cortisol is a natural

anti-inflammatory but when you lose that

affect you end up with inflammation in

the body but in a thumbnail sketch you

don’t have to be afraid of class

draw anymore you can go ahead and

consume cholesterol I’ve been eating

four eggs every single day for the last

20 years my cholesterol is about 160 170

160 which is totally normal and lastly I

want to tell you something we’re how do

you increase the good cholesterol to

increase good cholesterol you have to

consume egg yolks butter and cheese

that’s right egg yolks butter and cheese

especially from grass-fed cows will

increase the good cholesterol okay what

increases bad cholesterol sugar and junk

food okay so I hope that helped a little

bit unbraid wash you with this

cholesterol myth but and I want to leave

you if there’s one more thing

IQ or having a high high IQ does not

equal sanity just because someone is

so-called educated doesn’t mean they’re

sane all right I’ll see you the next
