    Dear prof. Fink, I cannot ever thank you enough for uploading these on UA-cam. I remember looking at my pharmacology books at the beginning of the session and thinking - how will I ever learn such a dry subject full of weird drug names. But enter - your channel. You're a teacher in the truest sense and no less than a magician! Because now I am officially in love with pharmacology. P.S. I also love how in your lectures we get pathology, microbiology, physiology, applied aspects AND pharmacology! It's unbelievable. Love how you correlate everything and provide reasoning for everything. Thank you once again, hope you're doing well. Looking forward to watching more videos from you! - Renuka

    You are the BEST!! I just finished nursing school and passed my boards. Hopefully I'll obtain a job soon, but in the meantime, I want to study for ME and not an exam! A good nurse should never stop studying, right? This is how I found your videos. Many thanks!

    Regarding Cholesterol: while further research on the causes and mechanisms of atherosclerosis continue, there is still OVERWHELMING consensus that dietary intake of saturated fats & cholesterol IS a factor (genetics & other possible environmental factors not withstanding).
    Diet & exercise should ALWAYS be the 1st resort. Medications should only be used when "natural" approaches fall short in managing the disorder.
    You can refer to the AMA, JOHNS HOPKINS, MAYO CLINIC ("aim for no more than 300 mg of cholesterol a day") and AMERICAN HEART ASSOCN web-sites.

      Hi Professor Fink, much research has been done on saturated fatty acids improving HDL and TG ratios while also improving LDL phenotype A larger particle size and lowering phenotype B which poses a greater risk. Dr Ron Krauss and others have thoroughly studied this area.

    that was really good in many ways. you explained a lot..including how aspirin and warfarin work differently. So wish you were our pharmacology lecturer. We have a very 'knowledgeable' chinese lecturer who struggles with English and speaks so slow its painful to listen to and the reason i (and other students) have to surf utube to try and learn what our lecturer SHOULD be teaching...or at least teaching well enough that the students understand and learn from. keep posting please! :-)

    I have a very quick question (hopefully it’s not silly of me to ask) but since statin reduce the conversion of saturated fat into cholesterol, then what will happen to all of those saturated fat that are still linger in the liver?

    • @professorfink
      @professorfink  3 роки тому +1

      saturated fat is used as an energy source to make ATP. If the individual is physically active, the saturated fats will be depleted. If the individual is not active, fat will accumulate causing "fatty liver". medlineplus.gov/fattyliverdisease.html

    I stopped taking Statins as they made me worse than better. I changed my diet and started to feel much better. Statins are bad trust me. You need LDL cholesterol and it can be reduced naturally rather than starving your cells of the cholesterol they need to function. Basically, Statins lie to your cells and leave them starved. This starved my brain and I was extremely confused, ached, liver damage and it would have got worse and I would have died anyway, so the Statins just make you worse in a different way and their way is not good. Change your diet and do not just take statins without researching first. I wish I had. Luckily, my son helped me. He saved my life by stopping the Statins and feeding me things such as red apples, beetroots, kale, greens, fish, brocolli and I felt better quite quickly. Good luck all eat healthy and stay safe.
