hey guys dr. Berg here listen out of all

the videos that I’ve done this is

probably the most important video and

you’ll see why because there is so much

confusion so much false information that

it’s very complex for people so I want

to break it down step by step it’s a

little bit longer but it’s very

important so we’re going to answer the

question is the so-called bad

cholesterol LDL really that bad

okay well first of all LDL is not

cholesterol in order for to transport

cholesterol through the body which is

fat doesn’t mix with water it just

doesn’t mix so the bias has developed a

little shuttles or different particles

or vehicles to transport cholesterol

okay and you have LDL low-density

lipoprotein and you have HDL

high-density lipoprotein LDL which is

considered bad really is a kind of a

misnomer because LDL really is the

cholesterol that goes from the liver to

the vascular system to the cells so it’s

going through the into the body okay HDL

is this the opposite it’s going from the

vascular system back to the liver to be

recycled or eliminated okay

so really these two types of proteins

are exchangers that are just constantly

working together to exchange cholesterol

back and forth to transport cholesterol

and triglycerides which are blood fats

okay so that’s the first thing you need

to understand let’s go to the next part

okay so you may already know that the

body makes cholesterol right it makes a

lot 3,000 milligrams every single day

that’s equivalent to about 14 eggs the

cholesterol in 14 eggs the cholesterol

in 300 strips of bacon or the

cholesterol in about a pound of butter

okay that’s a lot of cholesterol now why

does it make so much well it’s there to

provide raw material for cell membranes

have to sell all the cells in the body

are made out of cholesterol and you have

a hundred trillion cells

that’s why we need so much cholesterol

so it’s part of the structural property

of a membrane around your cell which

allows exchange back and forth of

nutrients and vitamins and minerals and

glucose and all sorts of things so it

also has antioxidant properties it

prevents free radical damage and it’s

anti-inflammatory properties it makes

vitamin D it’s the precursor the

building blocks for vitamin D it

actually helps you make bile that then

helps you dissolve the fat and extract

the fat type of vitamins from the fact

that you eat very important that without

cholesterol you can’t have that happen

cholesterol is there to make the stress

hormone cortisol and cortisol is

essential for life and all the sex

hormones testosterone estrogen

progesterone are all made from

cholesterol these are the normal

functions of cholesterol but you have

additional functions that a lot of

people don’t know about because

cholesterol also responds to crisis like

if someone has an infection the body

cholesterol will go up because it binds

and inactivates bacterial toxins it also

prevents the damage from microbes it

also acts as a band-aid so in the cell

membrane you have the endothelial layer

which is the layer around inside of the

blood vessel okay

and that actually has little pores that

exchange back and forth white blood

cells nutrition things go back and forth

so if you were to get a little tiny

lesion ulcer damage from various things

which I’ll cover in a bit the

cholesterol is there to go in there and

help heal and actually to provide a

band-aid that’s the real purpose ok

let’s go to the next part okay so now

this part is very very important so if

you’ve checked out just check back in

with me hang in there because this is

the most vital piece of this puzzle okay

there’s two types of LDL when you get

your LDL checked on your routine

cholesterol assessment it doesn’t

differentiate between this type or that

type so it’s type A

or type B or they can call it pattern a

or pattern B okay they don’t

differentiate the two the type a is

large buoyant that means it floats right

it’s big and fluffy it doesn’t go into

the epithelial wall it doesn’t create

involved event any clacking or clotting

of anything like that so this is more

normal LDL okay this type B are small

dense these keep these little guys can

go right into the epithelial wall and

they can start to be involved in the

plaquing formation so when people have

heart attacks and strokes you know they

have more of type B okay it makes sense

so you see more oxidation and build up

plaque type a it pretty much last two

days in your body type B lasts about

five days so it hangs out longer so how

do you know which is which you can do a

very advanced test if you want but a

better thing to do an easier thing to do

I wouldn’t say it’s better but it’s

easier is to look at the triglycerides

and the HDL okay so let’s say your LDL

is normal or high whatever if your

triglycerides because there is a

percentage of triglycerides in LDL in

addition to cholesterol if you look at

the triglycerides and the HDL if the

triglycerides are high and the HDL

so-called good cholesterol is low then

chances are you have more type B

LDL okay but if the triglycerides are

low and you have high HDL you have more

type a so that’s how you would

differentiate what type you would have

the last point I want to mention is this

what types of foods will increase type A

versus type B saturated fats will

increase type A interesting

when you consume more carbs and refined

sugars and sugar itself you increase

type B and this is why nearly all the

blood assessments that I see we pick

patients come in they always have high

triglycerides and low HDL the people

that are consuming carbs but if you

actually eliminate this and you do more

saturated fats you don’t worry about it

because you’ll have you may have even

high LDL but it’s a type A that doesn’t

create a problem now one last point and

this is the most important point let’s

say you do have type B it’s not that

it’s a bad cholesterol it’s not the

villain it’s not the criminal it’s at

the crime scene but it’s there to

actually heal the lesion the problem the

inflammation the damage from the

inflammation or the microbes that’s

behind it and so this is only bad in

that it’s part of the chain of events

that occurs that it’s they’re trying to

fix things but in the process it doesn’t

think the body doesn’t think long term

it thinks with short-term survival so

it’s going to form a plaque and a clot

to try to peel the area just like you

would if you sprained an ankle or broke

a joint scar tissue comes in and heal it

it doesn’t care if the joint moves

anymore

it’s there to protect and stop the

motion so yes it creates the problem

because you will die have a heart attack

and stroke but the body’s not thinking

long term is thinking let’s go ahead and

patch that artery and let’s start

putting a band-aid and starts growing

bigger and bigger and bigger the point

is that we need to change the eating

plan we need to get these out of the

diet and then your body can assimilate

these a lot better all right so now

let’s go to the next part okay so now

the question is why would someone have

high LDL pattern B okay we already

talked about the sugar right because

sugar creates inflammation it’s very

destructive to the cells that’s why

diabetics have a lot of nerve damage

vision problems inflammation coronary

heart disease so sugar and refined carbs

are

really bad okay also low thyroid will

create it high cortisol will create

higher amounts of pattern B stress

vegetable oils the soy in the corn oil

and canola all that GMO that’s

vegetables it’s high in omega-6 fatty

acids that creates more inflammation in

the body

trans fats hydrogenated partially

hydrogenated fats will do it low vitamin

C just like a situation you get bleeding

gums you get bleeding arteries glycation

what does glycation that’s when you

combine glucose or fructose with a

protein or a fat so let’s say you take

barbecued sauce and you put it on some

ribs and you bake it you heat it over

all 200 I think in 48 degrees Fahrenheit

you’re going to get glycation so the

glycation means that it’s this

combination of sugar with protein that

goes in the body it’s very sticky and it

starts creating high level of the

pattern B among other issues as well

fries so they take sugar and they spray

it on french fries they deep-fry it same

deal doughnuts deep-fried Donuts

glycation what’s interesting is so you

when you combine protein with sugar or

sugar with fat and you bake it or you

cook it you create glycation also when

you consume high fructose corn syrup or

fructose in the form of refined fructose

or a tremendous amount of fructose you

can increase glycation by 10 times okay

because it combines in your body so not

only does it have to be you know

external it could be internally as well

okay and then surgery will increase

pattern B because of because LDL is a

healer it’s trying to go in there like

an ambulance and actually fix thing

that’s the purpose it’s trying to help

you and what do people do they take a

statin they try to limit it it’s not

understanding why we need LDL visceral

fat will also trigger

pattern B as well so anyway those are

the things that will increase the real

it’s not bad cholesterol it’s the it’s

the cholesterol that creates that’s

involved in the crime singing the damage

alright okay in summary we just want to

understand cholesterol LDL what it is

and what it’s not and uses an indicator

to pull the string to find out why it

might be high if it’s higher it could be

normal if the triglycerides are normal

and the HDL is normal but if there is

the problem with these then you have to

under ask why do I have a hypothyroid

issues am i eating too much sugar am i

doing this and the did I just get them

with some surgery of trauma alright

thanks for watching put your comments

below hi guys hey listen I created a

pretty amazing evaluation quiz down

below that actually analyzes your

symptoms to find the cause the root

cause of all of your symptoms the most

likely cause so take the quiz now and

we’ll send you a report
