hey guys in this video I’m going to talk

about the real purpose of cholesterol

the heart killer right well not really

let’s talk about exactly what this

cholesterol is there’s so much confusion

people are freaked out about it because

they’re worried that it’s going to clog

your arteries so they get their blood

test and it’s it’s high they freak out

let’s just take a look at some facts

related to cholesterol almost all of the

cholesterol in your body actually

doesn’t come from your diet it’s not

coming from your diet almost every cell

in your body will make cholesterol so

the majority of cholesterol that you

have in your body is coming from your

own body your body makes 3,000

milligrams of cholesterol every single

day your liver makes a thousand the rest

of the cells make 200 mm okay now that

would be equivalent to a pound of butter

or 14 eggs or 300 strips of bacon that’s

a lot of cholesterol right your

cholesterol is on a negative feedback

loop so if you eat more your body makes

less if you eat less your body makes

more so here’s the question you need to

be asking why why does your body make so

much

if cholesterol is so bad and by the way

LDL HDL the good and bad cholesterol

that’s not really cholesterol LDL is low

density lipoproteins as a protein it’s a

shuttle that carries cholesterol through

the body HDL is high density lipoprotein

that’s a shuttle a protein shuttle that

carries cholesterol from the body so HDL

is the cholesterol coming from the

arteries back to the liver and LDL is

the cholesterol coming from your liver

to the body okay and they consider that

it’s not bad I’ll put a link down below

talking about LDL a lot more but I just

want to give you some facts about the

purpose of cholesterol so why do we need

it why is it so important because your

cell membranes 50% of the cell membranes

and every single cell you have it’s like

a trillion cells 50% of those cells are

made from cholesterol okay

the structure of the cells especially

your brain and the nervous system and

the myelin sheath around the nervous

so what are cell membranes the cell

membrane is permeable it allows

nutrition electrolytes molecules to go

in and out of the cell it protects the

cell against microbes and foreign

viruses and things like that so it

allows electrolytes to travel it

protects the central nervous system

which is the brain in the spinal column

it it actually is involved in making

bile bi le that’s the detergent helps

you break down the fat to actually

assimilate the essential fatty acids and

the fat soluble vitamins so you need

cholesterol to make vitamin D to

actually help make the bile that helps

you absorb vitamin A and E and even k2

so these are all essential fat soluble

vitamins that you need that without

cholesterol you can make the bile to

extract them from the food that you eat

cholesterol is needed as a raw material

precursor for adrenal hormones so the

more stress that you go through the more

cholesterol that you’re going to make

because the body needs those hormones to

adapt to stress sex hormones estrogen

testosterone is made from cholesterol

this is one of the reasons why statin

drugs one of the side effects is men

they lose their libido women have

problems with estrogen and progesterone

and even androgen so there’s a lot of

issues with that your cholesterol is

there to make myelin so there’s even

another video that I just released has

to do with MS in the relationship to

dysfunctional myelin which is the lipid

layer around the nervous system in the

brain and if you’re actually on a low

cholesterol diet you can worsen that

condition so the cholesterol also is

there to feed the immune system your

immune system needs cholesterol to

function

partly because cortisol from the adrenal

is necessary for the immune system

controls the white blood cell and then

also cholesterol is

to fight infection and to combat the

toxic effects from bacteria one of the

purposes of LVL the so called bad

cholesterol is to and I created a whole

separate video on this is to neutralize

the toxins from bacteria in the cell

it’s always considered the the bad guy

but it’s really yes it’s at the scene of

the crime but it’s really there to

actually heal whatever is there like a

lesion or some type of ulcer and so

people mistakenly assume that for that

guy when really it’s a good guy trying

to heal and you should just say wipe if

your body makes it why would be

considered a bad thing people never ask

those questions so changes of season

during the winter months the cholesterol

goes up because it’s you’re actually

trying to make some of these hormones to

adapt to the the change of season also

during stress and surgery your cluster

goes up to make more cortisol but I just

wanted to put this video together to

show you that that’s the real purpose of

cholesterol it has a purpose and anytime

it’s high you have to ask why why is it

high rather than just automatically

bring it down with some drug okay thanks
