so I had another question how can eating

fat lower my cholesterol okay it’s

confusing because afterall high fat

diets will increase your cholesterol

right not quite

here’s what happens when you do a low

fat diet normally you will increase the

carbs people that are on low fat diets

are really on a high carb diet okay and

anytime you combine the carbs like sugar

with the fat you spike insulin so not a

good situation in fact a lot of the

studies in that fact most of the studies

out there that show the harmful effects

of high fat diets are done with high fat

diets fed to mice with lots of carbs and

that’s why they come out supporting that

you need to do a low fat diet but the

thing you need to know is that your body

does make cholesterol it makes a lot of

it it makes 3,000 milligrams that’s a

lot in fact that would be equivalent to

consuming 14 eggs or a pound of butter

every single day so your body makes the

same amount of cholesterol so when you

lower the dietary cholesterol your body

will then make more okay so if you eat

more it makes less because we need

cholesterol

you know if it’s so bad why does her

body make it you need it for all the

cellular membranes you need it for the

brain you need for your hormones

especially testosterone you need it for

the stress hormones called cortisol you

need it for the eyes you need it for the

nervous system you needed to actually

repair certain things in the body so

it’s it’s definitely supportive of the

endocrine system and the type of fat

that we’re recommending on a healthy

keto is definitely not trans fats

hydrogenated oils or soy oil or lard or

deep fried anything okay we’re talking

about healthy fats like coconut oil

avocado nuts grass-fed meats grass-fed

dairy like cheese Wow caught fish

grass-fed butter cod liver oil so there

is no studies that show that consuming

these fats are in any way shape or form

harmful to your cholesterol or your

heart okay what what’s really behind the

spike in cholesterol

is the high amounts of carbs the type of

eating plan that I’m recommending is a

low carb higher fat and that way we

won’t trigger insulin and we can lower

the cholesterol but some people might

have a temporary spike in cholesterol

because of the fact that the fat is

being released they’re losing fat from

the fat cells and some of that fat in

there is cholesterol and triglycerides

so it has to come out but that’s a real

temporary thing it’s not harmful and

then it comes back down to normal but

the majority of the population will

notice a decrease in cholesterol once

they go in a low carb diet do it for one

month then check your cholesterol and

prove it to yourself as well as your

doctor hey you know what I just want to

say something only 30% of the people

that watching this video actually make

it this far and you did so I really

appreciate you thank you so much
