I was told today that I only have one artery that blood is able to flow through and that the others were 100% blocked and that stents couldn't be used due to too much scar tissue. But the real kicker was when the doctor who did the heart cath told me there was nothing that could be done to get them opened up. Yup, won't expecting that...

My cardiologist is board-certified in Integrative Medicine and Cardiology. He recommended Kyolic brand aged garlic and berberine back in 2017. I take nattokinase and eat berries, kimchi, cabbage, broccoli, and kefir. I use high intensity interval training and resistance training. I walk a mile or two per day. I take pravastatin and berberine. I eat salmon and other seafood. I add pre-biotics and fiber. I use a water pick and take care of my oral hygiene. I'm 76 years old. I work full-time. I get early morning sun every day. No alcohol.
A beer is a fine carb if you are limiting overall carbs, but my general thought is beer can quickly turn to be a dietary negative if consuming to much. Not sure what that limit is, perhaps 12oz per day or every other day?
I have read many great things about HIT.I would bet that most ppl knew you could do a kick but work out in 20 to 30 minutes that alone would be popular. I was doing it for awhile and it’s Great !
Appreciate this video. I’m a 37 year old nurse that had a BP of 165/115 the other day. I noticed my blood flow is less in my right arm now. Doc put me on Lisinopril to start. I’m just hoping the doctor is knowledgeable of future trends and research in medicine (he’s about my age). I bought kyolic and kimchi… I’ve stopped eating bread, cereal, oatmeal, etc.. mostly eating vegetables and some meat now.
@@UnknownUser-sc6jx A number of years ago I went to a men’s clinic and had a lot of labs drawn, sleep study, and VS checked. My BP was sort of high. I was told I have the start of metabolic syndrome which could lead to the stuff I’m now experiencing. However, I kind of forgot about what was said and still continued to do what I wanted to do. I had obtained waivers for vaccinations at work so… It would be irrelevant in this case.
As for exercise, add zone 1 too. Slow walking is the most common option, but I want to mention the "Soleus Push-Up" (seated heel lift) as a great alternative. They main advantage is that it xan be seated everywhere (working, watching TV, in a waiting room, in class etc...) it's very easy to do and really effective at lowering blood sugar.
Here in Portugal we are starting sardine season. Every Sunday is sardine barbecue day. Olive oil, grilled and pealed green peppers, boiled potatoes with skin and a salad, and of course, a good red wine.
@@brianlane9534 yes, the big ones, not spicy. First you grill them, until they got soft. Then put them in fresh cold water. Peeled them off, cut in stripes and put in a bowl with olive oil and salt at taste.
I eat a can of sardines packed in water each day - product of Poland. $1.29 and it's a good snack. I eat them with a fork - right out of the can! I stock up when they are 0.99 a can!
Buenos días, doctor. Qué alegría me da haberlo encontrado. Desde que lo sigo, he aprendido mucho sobre cómo tratar mi enfermedad. Me da mucha alegría ver que, aunque en mi caso es genética por parte de madre y padre, yo puedo hacer muchísimo para controlarla y eliminarla. Doctor, solo cuando intento ver alguno de sus videos y no están traducidos, me siento muy frustrada. Por favor, si pudieran traducir todos sus videos, las personas que lo escuchamos de habla hispana se lo vamos a agradecer. Muchísimas gracias por compartir sus conocimientos y darnos las esperanzas de que se puede disfrutar de una vida con mejor salud.
My HIT session is to hide from my dog behind the kitchen island. He tries to find me and I listen to his claws on the tiles to know his direction, and try to keep out of sight as he circles and circles back and barks. A few minutes of being chased by a very determined Labrador gets pretty scary towards the end, so I head for the couch and she follows, bounding at me in a friendly way. I wonder if I was holding my breath I breathe so hard. But no, just part of the hunter, gatherer and oh my gosh I’m the prey, the stuff we evolved with and have largely forgotten. It’s great to hear the research that points to the solutions lying in our evolutionary history. Thank you for the video, and HIT like you just became prey.
Excellent. at 71 , im very interested in your approach to better health. your attitude and genuine committment seems to manifest here. Being.,,, trust worthy is paramount,, andthe wholelistic approach!!

You talk about [ HIIT ] I live 100% Off grid, I cut firewood every day for exercise and to heat my home and cook my food.. I don't go to the gym in the workout. I live on the side of a Hill. So I have to walk up-and-down the Hill to get anywhere on my property. So I'm constantly active. Medicare wants to meet a go to a gym and spend my money to do the things. I do every day here.
Every year from the fall, I grow organic Napa cabbage and cabbage to make kimchi and sauerkraut. After a few days of fermentation, I save them in the frig to eat slowly. They last for many months in the frig. I like to eat them with bbq meat, by itself, or with rice. Thank you for this video, it’s very helpful, especially for my daughter for her stem project.
I have been taking fresh lemon (1/2), extra virgin olive oil (single source) and 1/8 tsp. of cayenne pepper 3-4 times per week. This is recommended for liver, heart and arteries.
Better traceability. The olive oil in the bottle comes from one “farm” so to speak. Most olive oil comes from a variety of locations and it loses track or what kind of olive oil it actually is
Here's a ChatGPT summary: - A 1% reduction in arterial plaque is associated with a 25% decrease in cardiovascular risk. - Aged garlic extract reduced low attenuation plaque by 1.5% in a study, compared to a 0.2% increase in the placebo group. - Fermented kimchi led to a 2.2% decrease in body fat and a 26% reduction in fasting insulin levels, compared to 1% and 11% respectively in fresh kimchi. - Natto kinase, derived from fermented soybeans, reduced plaque thickness by 22% in a study with 1,062 participants. - Omega-3 fatty acids from fish like tuna and salmon can reduce cardiovascular events by 9% with an intake of about a gram per day. - Iranian whortle berries lowered total cholesterol by 28% and increased HDL by 37.5% in a study. - Consuming more eggs was linked to an 11% reduction in plaque build-up in carotid arteries. - Cruciferous vegetables like broccoli and cabbage were associated with thinner carotid artery walls, reducing heart disease risk. - Main message: Certain foods and supplements, such as aged garlic, fermented kimchi, natto kinase, omega-3 fatty acids, berries, eggs, and cruciferous vegetables, can significantly reduce arterial plaque and improve cardiovascular health.
I was pleasantly surprised to hear that kimchi is one of the 7 foods. I am a veteran and was stationed in South Korea for 13 months. Anytime I went into a Korean restaurant, kimchi was an item on the menu and practically always eaten by Koreans. They always put a lot of garlic in it.
Thank you Dr Brewer. ❤❤❤ Found your useful videos. 🎉🎉🎉 Just got diagnosed of a 40% build-up of plaque after my angiogram. Now, really need to follow your recipe for healthy plaque.
Thanks for sharing that information. I was wondering how he was going to take care of someone not in his area. How will he be able to administer to all the clients he will receive from being on Utube.
One remark about the fish... Cold water fish are the best, and if you are eating farmed Salmon, you are wasting your time, or even making your health worse... the fish don't make the Omega 3 oil, they get it from their diet in the wild, and farmed fish are fed pellets which don't have the Omega 3 to get passed up the food chain... Krill is the better oil as a supplement, because it is food that creates the Omega 3 for further up the food chain, without the potential of mercury contamination or such... some of which may get into the processing chain...
Farmed fish, YUK! EVER SEEN HOW THEY RAISE FARMED FISH? THEY HAVE A CIRCULAR PEN IN THE WATER AND ALL THE FISH SWIM AROUND AND AROUND IN THE SAME CIRCULAR WAY FOLLOWING EACH OTHER, EATING WHAT COMES OUT OF THE BUTT OF THE ONE IN FRONT! FARMED FISH IS ANYTHING but healthy. Wild caught tastes so much better, same goes for shrimp!
@@Ranch-girl Good question - hopefully someone answers I take Omega 3 supplements also - but now I am asking myself - where is this Fish oil coming from? Is it from farmed fish? Then I am wasting my money
@@ramaraksha01 Only buy omega 3 supps that are definitely from wild fish. If nothing is said on the bottle it could easily be farmed. I buy mine from Vital Choice, an Alasken fish company only dealing in wild fish.
I've been fermenting for many years now. Kimche and sourkraut (but with red cabbage) and became very concerned about the salt needed to ferment but could not find anything on it. Glad to know the benefits outweigh the scary salt, since I have had high BP since I was 30 yrs old, weighed 95lbs. and ran 20-30 miles per week. This news makes me so happy!
Great info! I've been thinking of adding KIMCHI back into my diet, the Dr. is correct! Because of arthritis, and rheumatoid arthritis issues with associated inflammation, I went grain free two and a half years ago. Gave up high oxalate veggies second (look up oxalates Sally K. Norton), so a mostly carnivore way of eating has been great. Beef, beef jerky, lamb, Bison, sardines/seafood, 5%fat plain Greek yogurt, eggs, butter. I'm quite sure that my earlier life as a vegetarian for MANY years of eating toxic high oxalate plants (spinach, chard, most beans, sweet potato, potato, almonds and more) are the root cause of much pain and suffering for myself and others. So glad I stopped by to hear this very good info...cabbage is low oxalate anyway, so it is high time I add kimchi back into my LIFE! Thank you Dr.!
Dr. Brewer, thanks for taking the time to make this video to help others! Less than an hour a go I had a shot of kyolic liquid garlic and natto with kim chee. And cooked broccoli for later. I did not know about broccoli and plaque improvement. Guess that helps validate Dr. Esselstyn's work. Everyone should watch this video. Please take care.
@@PrevMedHealth thank you for sharing your knowledge. I have heard Berberine has negative effects on other organs and Niacin is Hepatoxic. Is this correct, or should be considered depending on patient underlying pathologies?
I just had a follow up with my cardiologist. Male, 72 yrs, 150#, 2 stents and evidence of a previous heart attack left ventricle (I never felt it). Carnivore for just about a year. I am off all meds except baby aspirin. BP 125/60 Recent ABI 1.3. Blood work getting better and I feel fantastic. Unfortunately, after this video I am confused. I also follow the other low carb Drs. DR. Chaffee in particular. His videos on the toxins in plants makes sense to me. But, now you are recommending vegetables as the #1 for plaque management! So, "tongue - in - cheek" we have choice. You can hopefully manage your plaque with vegetables (toxins) or be total carnivore and take your chances. What say you, Dr. Ford?
I added up all the health benefits that Dr Brewer described in the seven foods. He cited percentage decreases in cholesterol and other heart related conditions. He also cited decreases in mortality when partaking of these Foods. So I added up each of the seven foods and came out with the total that if you take all of them the way the good doctor Brewer has ascribed for you, you will live to 327 years old.
A childhood friend's father was a thoracic surgeon. Shortly after the medical community started saying that dietary cholesterol, particularly eggs, was bad for people, I was having dinner at their house and I asked him if eating eggs was really that bad for people. I explained how I ate 2 eggs just about every day. He had a complete look of horror on his face. This was decades ago. I've never stopped eating eggs.
I have been on Carnivore for 1 year and at 67 yrs I was so messed up Lyme disease and Epstein Barr since a child! Had enlarged heart and every organ messed up! I now do not have an enlarged heart! Just traveled 2 wks and didn't have congestive heart! Tests show I am all normal including no longer boarderline diabetic! I have used everything natural and every so called diet under the sun! I almost died till Carnivore! A new life for my future! Happier in Ft Worth TX!
This is increasingly a common story. It’s a simple means of getting quickly getting healthy. You just have to ignore the mainstream freak outs over someone eating the diet we did well on for at least 2 million years.
@@howardstewart2549that’s your opinion. I happen to believe that our evolutionary history is more telling than any other argument out there. The shift from plant-based started happening about 4 million years ago when tree dwelling apes move to being more ground-based.. It accelerated 2 million years ago with Homo Erectus and continued up through Homo Sapiens. This is not controversial as archaeologists have confirmed this pattern time and time again. If you want to know what an animal should eat, you simply determine what it was eating in the wild. You don’t conduct experiments on it to see what it should be eating. I would go one step further and say that evolution also stopped caring about our future existence after about 30- 40 years due to lack of contribution to reproduction as well as enabling the tribe to survive. Hence, the down deregulation of a multiple compounds (e.g, melatonin, NAD, NO, glutathione, hormones) and thus the need to either increase substrate for the production of these compounds (e.g., glynac) or the direct substitution (e.g., testosterone). You may not find studying evolution in search of an understanding of how our physiology was shaped through time, but it is ludicrous to think it is irrelevant or unknown.
Im a woman of 61yrs from South Africa my problem is Dr my heart beats like 50 to 53 per minute I can see now my arteries are blocked. Thanks so much for teaching us how to look after ourselves I appreciate that
The difference between fresh and fermented kimchi is the amount of lactic acid bacteria and lactic acid. Organic acids slow gastric emptying and reduce glucose spike. the same improvement can be had with yoghurt, vinegar or lemon juice
nome of these foods cause inflamation, in fact, some of them calm inflammation.. to keep your teachings consistent, i believe this is why theae foods are helpful
Excellent info doctor..Great to see you act on proper feedback despite what you advice otherwise, previously. That's the kind of honest opinion/advice everybody needs. Power to your pen and broadcast..
I have learned so much from watching this video than any and all videos I have watched. As someone who has CHF this type of information is invaluable,it will help to communicate with my Dr and relay what direction I need to be going. Thank you for the education.
Great stuff. With respect to REHIT, growth hormone production is accelerated, an important benefit for the elderly who have cell death rates sometimes exceeding replacement, without significant cortisol production
Love these long form videos, amazing how google feeds me relevant videos on subjects , its as if I only have to think about something and bang a video about it. I have been making Dr. Davis's L-Ruteri yogurt and sourkraut recently, loving it, so much better than store bought, easy and fast to make, i'm hooked.
As always you present an excellent video, very informative and moreover some thing that I will be passing on to all my friends like I do with all your videos, long life to you
I got to your channel after watching the latest episode on Dr Rhonda Patrick's channel where she interviewed Dr. Levine on exercise, arterial and cardiac health, and HIIT. BTW, in several previous episodes she discussed why cruciferous vegetables help and the mechanism behind it.
Dr. Brewer, it's not Korean red bean paste but gochugaru, a Korean chili powder (pepper family, containing capsaicin which has anti-inflammatory). Red bean paste, is not typically used in kimchi, but it is used in many other East Asian desserts and dishes.
28:12 Wait natto in a cup of coffee! that s wild 😮 I always was disgusted by the smell of the rotten fish,shrimp, eggs back in my parent s kitchen… So, they were actually on the healthy path in feeding me all the fermented food cabbages,radish, pumpkins leafs, black garlic,mung beans. And all the very bitter/sour plants, leaf, fruits the Bitter melon.
I wondered about this myself, but I think he's referring to Nattokinase as a supplement as he says he's adding that along with the Kyolic back into his supplement routine. Which is confusing to me anyway, because enzymes in general are recommended to be taken on an empty stomach... so idk.
I underwent a quintuple bypass surgery 2 years back and I take 75mg prescription Aspirin everyday. I used some of the blood thinning food options such as garlic cloves before the surgery but I stopped that after I was prescribed Aspirin. I would like to replace aspirin with natural food options over the long term - like to know Dr. Brewer's valued views.
@@knitnpaint I take one prescription 75mg Aspirin every day. I am looking for natural options for the long term to replace it as it caused a minor stomach bleed recently and the doctors said that will be a way of life sometimes - unacceptable to me; I do not plan to live life by exchanging some safety for the heart (studies suggest moderate benefit only) with the possibility of stroke and stomach bleeds which can also be fatal. Also, the doctors focus only on thinning the blood but they do not seriously look at helping increase nitric oxide production which will dilate the blood vessels - I also look at deep breathing, meditation, nitrate rich foods such as beetroot to keep the nitric oxide levels better.
Kimchi isn't usually "red bean paste" but red pepper paste. You have confused the two. Red bean paste is usually used for desserts and is sweetened. Red pepper paste is used in sauces, marinades, kimchi, etc. Although usually its just red pepper, and not the paste used for kimchi.
It’s red pepper flakes or powder. Some people use rice flour too but I personally don’t. Use apple or Asian pear instead of sugar. Sometimes use fish sauce, sometimes shrimp paste or fish paste.
For those of you considering adding fermented stuff to your diet (but afraid of disgusting smell/taste of natto or kimchi), start with sauerkraut or semipickled cucumbers (3 to 7 days of fermentation without vinegar). Both items smell nicely, are crispy and taste great if prepped by a knowledgeable person. Slavic stores must be an appropriate source of both.
I had a blood sugar of 200 after eating a bag of Cheetos. I went on a 5 minute walk and my blood sugar was 137. Walking is great for lowering your blood sugar!
Controlling your blood sugar is the most important aspect of being diabetic. It's not that you can't eat certain things, it's how much. Some people go a little crazy.
Good stuff, Dr. Brewer. My breakfast for the past couple years has typically included a serving of natto (with a heaping tablespoon each of cabbage kimchi and sauerkraut, mixed with 2 tbsp. of extra virgin olive oil. It’s my favorite thing to eat. Maybe I’ll add a dash of aged/black garlic powder going forward to each serving to turn the health benefits and umami level up another notch!
Thank you for this video.Would like to know---why is there not a method found to remove plaque in the veins surgically when there are so many strides made in valve replacements,stent inplantments etc?
Hi doc! I've been diagnosed with Ischemia and now the cardiologist has suggested surgery which I don't agree with. Right now I'm just taking the prescribed meds (beta blockers,nitrites) and following a restricted diet of boiled veggies and fruits like bananas, oranges, apples, steamed fish.
Here in nz, we have a dish called toroi. Mussels, onions, and either watercress or another leafy green we call puha. Not sure what name it goes by In other parts of world. But this dish is fermented in a airtight jar for atleast 1month, longer if you like it potent. But I eat that too.. if you want to try, I'll put recipe in comments. Very simple to make.
Steamed Mussels & raw onion, sliced raw garlic in apple cider vinegar with a bit of manuka honey, Himalayan salt and fresh ground black pepper. Add chilli, pickling spice if you like it. Quick and easy, delicious.
Why are you guys talking about not liking Kimchi!!! I love it. Add 1/2 a cup or more of Kimchi to your plate of over easy eggs and avocado for your first meal. I sprinkle some everything bagel seasoning on the eggs and avocado. By the time you are on your last egg, the runny yolk from eggs has mixed in with the kimchi juice. I literally end up licking the plate. shhh! Outstanding video, research references and explanations. Can you comment on whether such high benefits mean some of these (or a combination) have higher benefits than statins?
TLDR: add tahine to your kimchi for better taste. Thank you Dr. For this clear and straightforward video! I was unable to find natto here in France but I have since added kimchi to my diet daily. I understand from the video that you aren’t a big fan of kimchi for its taste. I personally love to eat mine together with tahine (sesame seeds paste) either regular or black sesame seeds tahine. I hope this tip might help you find your fancy in the world of kimchi! Also, sesame seeds and therefore tahine are great sources of calcium. Any idea whether the positive effect of Kimchi is actually due to the fermentation, the fact that cabbage is healthy or the effect of the capsaicin? If it’s the fermentation process, is it a by product or the bacteria itself? And how can we know whether the kimchi we buy (in my case either canned or in a glass jar) still have the bacteria alive? I know that for “choucrute” (sourkraut) the fresh one with live microorganisms is much more expensive than the one in the glass jar. Any idea whether sourkraut is a good substitute for kimchi for people who might like the first better than the second? Well, this comment started out as a recommendation for you to hopefully start liking your daily dose of Kimchi and ended up as a long list of questions about fermentation, cabbage and sourkraut. It might desire it’s own video! Just hope it isn’t too long to capt your attention! Thank you for the great content!
How do you cook your eggs for best results? I prefer scrambled... but I can adjust. Also, can you do a video where you have a week's worth of meals... what you eat every day for a week, including supplements to take? Thanks!!
Dr berg will say sunny side up eggs low heat and be sure you’re eating pasture raised eggs not pasteurized-also cage free doesn’t mean anything . ALDIs has pasture raised eggs for around $5 dozen you’ll see how dark the yolk is as compared to the cheap eggs
Try poached eggs. Fill 2/3 of a cup with water, add an egg, microwave for 1 or 2 minutes, depending on taste and microwave power settings. You can add a bit of salt to the water if you want.
To improve the taste of Kimchi I mix equal parts of Kimchi and fermented sauerkraut together and eat daily with my 2 meals. 6yrs Ketovior. Just started eating canned cod liver in addition to regular sardines and cod liver oil consumption.
Thanks for sharing your golden knowledge. Regarding Iranian whortleberry, Iranians make chicken with whortleberry and rice ofcourse separately (Suggest You test it in Iranian restaurant, it's very delicious) and the food is called Chicken whortleberry. About garlic and cabbage, I should say: It's not good for those with Thyroid problem.
This is a great condensed focused video - Thank you very much. I wish to see similar content on other subjects: to lower blood glucose, to lower systolic pressure, to prevent prostate cancer, etc.
The thing often left in the dark is how cruciferous vegetables and eggs act as hunger inhibitors. Not only are you not eating sugar, you're also prohibiting the consumption of additional calories. Your want for food is seriously hindered if not halted after a large bowl of greens, eggs and meat. I think this is the real benefit apart from the nutritional factors. The thing with metabolic disease is that these people are just consuming way too much and outputting too little energy and it gets worse the older we are. Suffice to say it is a drag to get old. You do have to cut back on the sugars and carbs. You do have to eat the nasty vegetables. That's the trade off for long life.
It can be argued that the reason that cruciferous vegetables are on the list is due to their sulfur content, which is also high in aged garlic. Sulfur has been implicated in reduction in heart related diseases in numerous studies.
I think exercise is key but if you don't have good cholesterol the exercise may not matter, i eat one meal per day only and i feel great my meal is usually a double portion been doing it for 20 plus years, I'm 62 never felt better thanks dr. For this study, I'll try to add some of them in.
Pro tip: it's easy to ferment fresh kimchi. Put it into a glass jar like a pint sized Ball canning jar, squeeze it down so the water rises above the cabbage, insert some kind of barrier to keep air out, such as a slice of cauliflower Stem, or even cabbage leaves, and tighten the lid only slightly, to allow gas to escape. Don't fill it to the top, or liquid will seep out and make things mess, and attract vermin. Over the course of days and even weeks, the color of the kimchi will change, and you will smell the difference. By the way, before you do any of this, taste it. You might want to add some garlic or salt, or even anchovy or even cooked meat or fish...Yes, you read that right. They do that in Korea.
Thank you sir. I already consume all of these but 2. I will consider adding kyolic aged garlic to my regimen. I will pass on whortlberries, but I already consume strawberries, blueberries and blackberries.
What are your comments on foods high in tyramine (fermented sauerkraut, fermented kimchi, dark fish such as mackerel, sardines, salmon) that may trigger A Fib? I have always followed this list except for natto yet have recently developed A Fib. The commercial production of vitamin K2 (a menaquinone 7) involves the same fermentative process as for natto.
Over 27 years. ago I had an MI Refused bypass surgery. To control lipids I mainly used Psyllium. I am 84 and doing well on a vegetarian diet and intermittent fasting. I take some supplements too.
Whortleberry is also known as bilberry which I’ve been taking to improve vision. WWIi fighter pilots reported improved night vision after eating bilberry jam which was included in their rations so studies were done…Im so happy there are other benefits
I have been taking Kyolic Garlic for over 30 years. In the 90s it was the king of supplements. But like Taurine it was surpassed by many other flashy supplements promising everything short of being resurrected when you die. I have been on and off the wagon regarding healthy eating. But one thing has remained fairly constant - I have always had reasonable cholesterol panels. I think both Taurine and Kyolic are two of the best supplements you can take. Taurine is making a massive come back.
Gracias Dr.x darme una clase magistral de medicina,aunque no entiendo mucho,pero si aki en Argentina muchos médicos ,no se preocupan mucho x la salud de sus pacientes.Tengo tratamiento en un sanatorio importante de Posadas Misiones.y tengo enfermedad severa.Y el medicamento es siempre lo mismo desde hace 3 años
Gracias por ver el canal, estamos trabajando por hacer el contenido más digerible, puedes verlo en nuestros últimos vídeos, la medicina preventiva está en pañales en todo el mundo desafortunadamente
A simplistic comment regarding Kimchi, could it be as simple as the fermented product had lower "sugar" content due to the fermentation, hence lower glucose and insulin spiking and corresponding results? The lesson being getting rid of simple sugars is healthy regardless of how it is done.
how i wish Dr. Ford can present his content as clear and direct as this one always. Others are too crowded with health terminology and conversation among the expert that I find difficult to understand!
Best unbiased and to-the-point video(as described in video title) I've seen from Dr. Brewer so far! 😉👍 If I was to give some professional feedback, on some of the topics raised, I do have some personal doubts/opinions about the long term benefits of doing cardio at 100% heartrate intensity. Which, in short, relates to ratio of lipids getting stuck in the aterial walls at 100% vs training at a lower intensity for longer. I will just quickly point at the data that shows blood pressure affects rates of lipids getting stuck and thus the speed of build up of plaque! 😉
I tend to agree, way better to avoid chronic inflammation to start with, animal protein looks best for that, however once acquired would going carnivore also reduce CIMT? Who knows, we don’t have the study data. Further I would say there is no “appetite” in academia to fund a study.
Dr. Ford, been "into" keto since "The New Atkins Diet" ~~ 2012. Just recently got much more active, won't go into the details but do monitor my GKI with a daily Keto-Mojo monitor. My blood pressure has dropped, in my two last doctor visits to 103/55. Not sure if that a good thing (cold plaques, etc) or a problem. Not asking for a long explanation - just a simple -- "Good" or "Bad".
I try to eat a spoonfull of organic saurkraut, shredded red & green cabbage and a raw carrot daily. Brocolli 3 times a week. Sardines and salmon 4 times a week.
Also check out How I Cleaned out my arteries:

I was told today that I only have one artery that blood is able to flow through and that the others were 100% blocked and that stents couldn't be used due to too much scar tissue. But the real kicker was when the doctor who did the heart cath told me there was nothing that could be done to get them opened up. Yup, won't expecting that...

Vaccinated?
@@UnknownUser-sc6jx A number of years ago I went to a men’s clinic and had a lot of labs drawn, sleep study, and VS checked. My BP was sort of high. I was told I have the start of metabolic syndrome which could lead to the stuff I’m now experiencing. However, I kind of forgot about what was said and still continued to do what I wanted to do. I had obtained waivers for vaccinations at work so… It would be irrelevant in this case.
Oatmeal w/o a lot sugar is an excellent fiber food to lower LDL.
As for exercise, add zone 1 too. Slow walking is the most common option, but I want to mention the "Soleus Push-Up" (seated heel lift) as a great alternative. They main advantage is that it xan be seated everywhere (working, watching TV, in a waiting room, in class etc...) it's very easy to do and really effective at lowering blood sugar.
Here in Portugal we are starting sardine season. Every Sunday is sardine barbecue day. Olive oil, grilled and pealed green peppers, boiled potatoes with skin and a salad, and of course, a good red wine.
How do you prepare the sardine?
Thank you.
@seekingserenity1902 if you can get them fresh, grill them.
@@brianlane9534 yes, the big ones, not spicy. First you grill them, until they got soft. Then put them in fresh cold water. Peeled them off, cut in stripes and put in a bowl with olive oil and salt at taste.
Damn, I envy you, I have to eat them out of a can. My favorite food is raw oysters. Can hardly ever get them.
I’m 77 and have been recovering from my first 70 and am totally on board with this approach.
Watched and heard so many drs etc..1st time here i dont need to go anywhere else..the truth sits right here with this man.
I eat a can of sardines packed in water each day - product of Poland. $1.29 and it's a good snack. I eat them with a fork - right out of the can! I stock up when they are 0.99 a can!
The Smoked variety are especially good!
You should eat them with the steak knife, it will take you whole day and you might reach a goal of one meal a day.
I've tried sardines in a spinach salad, too! Costco I think have the best sardines!
That probably gives you all your omega 3s.

My HIT session is to hide from my dog behind the kitchen island. He tries to find me and I listen to his claws on the tiles to know his direction, and try to keep out of sight as he circles and circles back and barks. A few minutes of being chased by a very determined Labrador gets pretty scary towards the end, so I head for the couch and she follows, bounding at me in a friendly way. I wonder if I was holding my breath I breathe so hard. But no, just part of the hunter, gatherer and oh my gosh I’m the prey, the stuff we evolved with and have largely forgotten. It’s great to hear the research that points to the solutions lying in our evolutionary history. Thank you for the video, and HIT like you just became prey.

You talk about [ HIIT ]
I live 100% Off grid, I cut firewood every day for exercise and to heat my home and cook my food.. I don't go to the gym in the workout. I live on the side of a Hill. So I have to walk up-and-down the Hill to get anywhere on my property. So I'm constantly active. Medicare wants to meet a go to a gym and spend my money to do the things. I do every day here.
Every year from the fall, I grow organic Napa cabbage and cabbage to make kimchi and sauerkraut. After a few days of fermentation, I save them in the frig to eat slowly. They last for many months in the frig. I like to eat them with bbq meat, by itself, or with rice.
Thank you for this video, it’s very helpful, especially for my daughter for her stem project.
I have been taking fresh lemon (1/2), extra virgin olive oil (single source) and 1/8 tsp. of cayenne pepper 3-4 times per week. This is recommended for liver, heart and arteries.
What is "single source" olive oil?
Better traceability. The olive oil in the bottle comes from one “farm” so to speak. Most olive oil comes from a variety of locations and it loses track or what kind of olive oil it actually is

I was pleasantly surprised to hear that kimchi is one of the 7 foods. I am a veteran and was stationed in South Korea for 13 months. Anytime I went into a Korean restaurant, kimchi was an item on the menu and practically always eaten by Koreans. They always put a lot of garlic in it.
Did you find it took a while to adapt to it?😊
Thank you Dr Brewer. ❤❤❤ Found your useful videos. 🎉🎉🎉
Just got diagnosed of a 40% build-up of plaque after my angiogram. Now, really need to follow your recipe for healthy plaque.

Thank you very much!
Thanks for sharing that information. I was wondering how he was going to take care of someone not in his area. How will he be able to administer to all the clients he will receive from being on Utube.
One remark about the fish... Cold water fish are the best, and if you are eating farmed Salmon, you are wasting your time, or even making your health worse... the fish don't make the Omega 3 oil, they get it from their diet in the wild, and farmed fish are fed pellets which don't have the Omega 3 to get passed up the food chain... Krill is the better oil as a supplement, because it is food that creates the Omega 3 for further up the food chain, without the potential of mercury contamination or such... some of which may get into the processing chain...
Farmed fish, YUK! EVER SEEN HOW THEY RAISE FARMED FISH? THEY HAVE A CIRCULAR PEN IN THE WATER AND ALL THE FISH SWIM AROUND AND AROUND IN THE SAME CIRCULAR WAY FOLLOWING EACH OTHER, EATING WHAT COMES OUT OF THE BUTT OF THE ONE IN FRONT! FARMED FISH IS ANYTHING but healthy. Wild caught tastes so much better, same goes for shrimp!
Would I be able to get all the benefits that I need just by taking the Omega 3 supplements since I am not a fish or seafood fan at all?!? What brand?
@@Ranch-girl Good question - hopefully someone answers
I take Omega 3 supplements also - but now I am asking myself - where is this Fish oil coming from? Is it from farmed fish? Then I am wasting my money

@@ramaraksha01 Only buy omega 3 supps that are definitely from wild fish. If nothing is said on the bottle it could easily be farmed. I buy mine from Vital Choice, an Alasken fish company only dealing in wild fish.

The sugar is consumed during the fermentation.

I've been fermenting for many years now. Kimche and sourkraut (but with red cabbage) and became very concerned about the salt needed to ferment but could not find anything on it. Glad to know the benefits outweigh the scary salt, since I have had high BP since I was 30 yrs old, weighed 95lbs. and ran 20-30 miles per week. This news makes me so happy!
Got any good tips for tastier kimchi?
Great info! I've been thinking of adding KIMCHI back into my diet, the Dr. is correct!
Because of arthritis, and rheumatoid arthritis issues with associated inflammation, I went grain free two and a half years ago. Gave up high oxalate veggies second (look up oxalates Sally K. Norton), so a mostly carnivore way of eating has been great. Beef, beef jerky, lamb, Bison, sardines/seafood, 5%fat plain Greek yogurt, eggs, butter. I'm quite sure that my earlier life as a vegetarian for MANY years of eating toxic high oxalate plants (spinach, chard, most beans, sweet potato, potato, almonds and more) are the root cause of much pain and suffering for myself and others.
So glad I stopped by to hear this very good info...cabbage is low oxalate anyway, so it is high time I add kimchi back into my LIFE! Thank you Dr.!
Oxalates cause me SO much bladder pain.
Dr. Brewer, thanks for taking the time to make this video to help others! Less than an hour a go I had a shot of kyolic liquid garlic and natto with kim chee. And cooked broccoli for later. I did not know about broccoli and plaque improvement. Guess that helps validate Dr. Esselstyn's work. Everyone should watch this video. Please take care.
IMHO, this is a very high quality video, with rigors in analysis and deep knowledge.
Thank you very much!!
@@PrevMedHealth thank you for sharing your knowledge. I have heard Berberine has negative effects on other organs and Niacin is Hepatoxic. Is this correct, or should be considered depending on patient underlying pathologies?
I just had a follow up with my cardiologist. Male, 72 yrs, 150#, 2 stents and evidence of a previous heart attack left ventricle (I never felt it). Carnivore for just about a year. I am off all meds except baby aspirin. BP 125/60 Recent ABI 1.3. Blood work getting better and I feel fantastic. Unfortunately, after this video I am confused. I also follow the other low carb Drs. DR. Chaffee in particular. His videos on the toxins in plants makes sense to me. But, now you are recommending vegetables as the #1 for plaque management! So, "tongue - in - cheek" we have choice. You can hopefully manage your plaque with vegetables (toxins) or be total carnivore and take your chances. What say you, Dr. Ford?

Hi there. I am also 68 and have been eating egg all my life.
A childhood friend's father was a thoracic surgeon. Shortly after the medical community started saying that dietary cholesterol, particularly eggs, was bad for people, I was having dinner at their house and I asked him if eating eggs was really that bad for people. I explained how I ate 2 eggs just about every day. He had a complete look of horror on his face. This was decades ago. I've never stopped eating eggs.
How many eggs per day ?

I almost died till Carnivore! A new life for my future! Happier in Ft Worth TX!
This is increasingly a common story. It’s a simple means of getting quickly getting healthy. You just have to ignore the mainstream freak outs over someone eating the diet we did well on for at least 2 million years.
Any benefits to sexual/hormonal health?
Yes, cholesterol is a prime ingredient for making hormones
Did you have heart disease? What is your favorite carnivore meal?
@@howardstewart2549that’s your opinion. I happen to believe that our evolutionary history is more telling than any other argument out there. The shift from plant-based started happening about 4 million years ago when tree dwelling apes move to being more ground-based.. It accelerated 2 million years ago with Homo Erectus and continued up through Homo Sapiens. This is not controversial as archaeologists have confirmed this pattern time and time again. If you want to know what an animal should eat, you simply determine what it was eating in the wild. You don’t conduct experiments on it to see what it should be eating. I would go one step further and say that evolution also stopped caring about our future existence after about 30- 40 years due to lack of contribution to reproduction as well as enabling the tribe to survive. Hence, the down deregulation of a multiple compounds (e.g, melatonin, NAD, NO, glutathione, hormones) and thus the need to either increase substrate for the production of these compounds (e.g., glynac) or the direct substitution (e.g., testosterone). You may not find studying evolution in search of an understanding of how our physiology was shaped through time, but it is ludicrous to think it is irrelevant or unknown.
Im a woman of 61yrs from South Africa my problem is Dr my heart beats like 50 to 53 per minute I can see now my arteries are blocked. Thanks so much for teaching us how to look after ourselves I appreciate that
The difference between fresh and fermented kimchi is the amount of lactic acid bacteria and lactic acid. Organic acids slow gastric emptying and reduce glucose spike. the same improvement can be had with yoghurt, vinegar or lemon juice
nome of these foods cause inflamation, in fact, some of them calm inflammation.. to keep your teachings consistent, i believe this is why theae foods are helpful
Excellent info doctor..Great to see you act on proper feedback despite what you advice otherwise, previously. That's the kind of honest opinion/advice everybody needs. Power to your pen and broadcast..

Last year Dr Brewer was promoting bergamot, and I've heard nothing since.
Great stuff. With respect to REHIT, growth hormone production is accelerated, an important benefit for the elderly who have cell death rates sometimes exceeding replacement, without significant cortisol production

I got to your channel after watching the latest episode on Dr Rhonda Patrick's channel where she interviewed Dr. Levine on exercise, arterial and cardiac health, and HIIT. BTW, in several previous episodes she discussed why cruciferous vegetables help and the mechanism behind it.
Dr. Brewer, it's not Korean red bean paste but gochugaru, a Korean chili powder (pepper family, containing capsaicin which has anti-inflammatory). Red bean paste, is not typically used in kimchi, but it is used in many other East Asian desserts and dishes.
Yes, the chile powder makes it! I use cabbage since I don't care for Napa. Otherwise, the Korean recipe I have is excellent.
Thank You Doctor Brewer for your extensive knowledge, you told a very different side of things, very impressive!

I always was disgusted by the smell of the rotten fish,shrimp, eggs back in my parent s kitchen…
So, they were actually on the healthy path in feeding me all the fermented food cabbages,radish, pumpkins leafs, black garlic,mung beans.
And all the very bitter/sour plants, leaf, fruits the Bitter melon.
I wondered about this myself, but I think he's referring to Nattokinase as a supplement as he says he's adding that along with the Kyolic back into his supplement routine. Which is confusing to me anyway, because enzymes in general are recommended to be taken on an empty stomach... so idk.

@@knitnpaint I take one prescription 75mg Aspirin every day. I am looking for natural options for the long term to replace it as it caused a minor stomach bleed recently and the doctors said that will be a way of life sometimes - unacceptable to me; I do not plan to live life by exchanging some safety for the heart (studies suggest moderate benefit only) with the possibility of stroke and stomach bleeds which can also be fatal. Also, the doctors focus only on thinning the blood but they do not seriously look at helping increase nitric oxide production which will dilate the blood vessels - I also look at deep breathing, meditation, nitrate rich foods such as beetroot to keep the nitric oxide levels better.

Kimchi isn't usually "red bean paste" but red pepper paste. You have confused the two. Red bean paste is usually used for desserts and is sweetened. Red pepper paste is used in sauces, marinades, kimchi, etc. Although usually its just red pepper, and not the paste used for kimchi.
It’s red pepper flakes or powder. Some people use rice flour too but I personally don’t. Use apple or Asian pear instead of sugar. Sometimes use fish sauce, sometimes shrimp paste or fish paste.
For those of you considering adding fermented stuff to your diet (but afraid of disgusting smell/taste of natto or kimchi), start with sauerkraut or semipickled cucumbers (3 to 7 days of fermentation without vinegar). Both items smell nicely, are crispy and taste great if prepped by a knowledgeable person. Slavic stores must be an appropriate source of both.
Nattokinase may be easier, if you cant stand natto
I had a blood sugar of 200 after eating a bag of Cheetos. I went on a 5 minute walk and my blood sugar was 137. Walking is great for lowering your blood sugar!

But that doesn’t mean you can eat a bag of chips and went for a walk and it’s ok. Just want to make it clear.

Why are you guys talking about not liking Kimchi!!! I love it. Add 1/2 a cup or more of Kimchi to your plate of over easy eggs and avocado for your first meal. I sprinkle some everything bagel seasoning on the eggs and avocado. By the time you are on your last egg, the runny yolk from eggs has mixed in with the kimchi juice. I literally end up licking the plate. shhh!
Outstanding video, research references and explanations. Can you comment on whether such high benefits mean some of these (or a combination) have higher benefits than statins?
TLDR: add tahine to your kimchi for better taste.
Thank you Dr. For this clear and straightforward video!
I was unable to find natto here in France but I have since added kimchi to my diet daily.
I understand from the video that you aren’t a big fan of kimchi for its taste.
I personally love to eat mine together with tahine (sesame seeds paste) either regular or black sesame seeds tahine.
I hope this tip might help you find your fancy in the world of kimchi!
Also, sesame seeds and therefore tahine are great sources of calcium.
Any idea whether the positive effect of Kimchi is actually due to the fermentation, the fact that cabbage is healthy or the effect of the capsaicin?
If it’s the fermentation process, is it a by product or the bacteria itself?
And how can we know whether the kimchi we buy (in my case either canned or in a glass jar) still have the bacteria alive?
I know that for “choucrute” (sourkraut) the fresh one with live microorganisms is much more expensive than the one in the glass jar.
Any idea whether sourkraut is a good substitute for kimchi for people who might like the first better than the second?
Well, this comment started out as a recommendation for you to hopefully start liking your daily dose of Kimchi and ended up as a long list of questions about fermentation, cabbage and sourkraut. It might desire it’s own video!
Just hope it isn’t too long to capt your attention!
Thank you for the great content!
How do you cook your eggs for best results? I prefer scrambled... but I can adjust. Also, can you do a video where you have a week's worth of meals... what you eat every day for a week, including supplements to take? Thanks!!
Dr berg will say sunny side up eggs low heat and be sure you’re eating pasture raised eggs not pasteurized-also cage free doesn’t mean anything . ALDIs has pasture raised eggs for around $5 dozen you’ll see how dark the yolk is as compared to the cheap eggs
Try poached eggs. Fill 2/3 of a cup with water, add an egg, microwave for 1 or 2 minutes, depending on taste and microwave power settings. You can add a bit of salt to the water if you want.
Loving this channel so far 👊😎
Garlic, Kimchi, eggs, berries, omega 3s - love eggs, kimchi once in awhile, 2g of EPAs every day.
To improve the taste of Kimchi I mix equal parts of Kimchi and fermented sauerkraut together and eat daily with my 2 meals. 6yrs Ketovior. Just started eating canned cod liver in addition to regular sardines and cod liver oil consumption.
I just mix it in with ground beet. I but the spicy kimchi
That sounds very healthy!
I eat it with pork belly.
What about pickled beets? I love them. Is that the same as fermented?
They taste great but have high amounts of sugar and are not fermented.
Thanks for sharing your golden knowledge. Regarding Iranian whortleberry, Iranians make chicken with whortleberry and rice ofcourse separately (Suggest You test it in Iranian restaurant, it's very delicious) and the food is called Chicken whortleberry. About garlic and cabbage, I should say: It's not good for those with Thyroid problem.
This is a great condensed focused video - Thank you very much. I wish to see similar content on other subjects: to lower blood glucose, to lower systolic pressure, to prevent prostate cancer, etc.
The thing often left in the dark is how cruciferous vegetables and eggs act as hunger inhibitors. Not only are you not eating sugar, you're also prohibiting the consumption of additional calories. Your want for food is seriously hindered if not halted after a large bowl of greens, eggs and meat. I think this is the real benefit apart from the nutritional factors. The thing with metabolic disease is that these people are just consuming way too much and outputting too little energy and it gets worse the older we are.
Suffice to say it is a drag to get old. You do have to cut back on the sugars and carbs. You do have to eat the nasty vegetables. That's the trade off for long life.
It can be argued that the reason that cruciferous vegetables are on the list is due to their sulfur content, which is also high in aged garlic. Sulfur has been implicated in reduction in heart related diseases in numerous studies.
Thanks for sharing

Highly appreciated 👍
I think exercise is key but if you don't have good cholesterol the exercise may not matter, i eat one meal per day only and i feel great my meal is usually a double portion been doing it for 20 plus years, I'm 62 never felt better thanks dr. For this study, I'll try to add some of them in.
Pro tip: it's easy to ferment fresh kimchi. Put it into a glass jar like a pint sized Ball canning jar, squeeze it down so the water rises above the cabbage, insert some kind of barrier to keep air out, such as a slice of cauliflower Stem, or even cabbage leaves, and tighten the lid only slightly, to allow gas to escape. Don't fill it to the top, or liquid will seep out and make things mess, and attract vermin.
Over the course of days and even weeks, the color of the kimchi will change, and you will smell the difference. By the way, before you do any of this, taste it. You might want to add some garlic or salt, or even anchovy or even cooked meat or fish...Yes, you read that right. They do that in Korea.
I can see that. In fact, I used to not like it. Now I love it! My secret? A little melted 🧈 butter!

What are your comments on foods high in tyramine (fermented sauerkraut, fermented kimchi, dark fish such as mackerel, sardines, salmon) that may trigger A Fib? I have always followed this list except for natto yet have recently developed A Fib. The commercial production of vitamin K2 (a menaquinone 7) involves the same fermentative process as for natto.
Es un agrado escucharlo Dr hago una consulta . El nivel de estrés puede influir en el metabolismo? Gracias
I’m getting on this! Numbers don’t lie every thing in moderation ❤
Thank you Dr. for sharing the health issue which is important to all People
Over 27 years. ago I had an MI Refused bypass surgery. To control lipids I mainly used Psyllium. I am 84 and doing well on a vegetarian diet and intermittent fasting. I take some supplements too.
excellent
Could you tell, what are those supplements ? Thanks
Whortleberry is also known as bilberry which I’ve been taking to improve vision. WWIi fighter pilots reported improved night vision after eating bilberry jam which was included in their rations so studies were done…Im so happy there are other benefits
I have been taking Kyolic Garlic for over 30 years. In the 90s it was the king of supplements. But like Taurine it was surpassed by many other flashy supplements promising everything short of being resurrected when you die. I have been on and off the wagon regarding healthy eating. But one thing has remained fairly constant - I have always had reasonable cholesterol panels. I think both Taurine and Kyolic are two of the best supplements you can take. Taurine is making a massive come back.
I really enjoyed your comment ...especially :"flashy supplements promising everything short of being resurrected when you die". 😄 Thanks for sharing!
I check on both and will buy them , thanks for the information
Gracias Dr.x darme una clase magistral de medicina,aunque no entiendo mucho,pero si aki en Argentina muchos médicos ,no se preocupan mucho x la salud de sus pacientes.Tengo tratamiento en un sanatorio importante de Posadas Misiones.y tengo enfermedad severa.Y el medicamento es siempre lo mismo desde hace 3 años
Gracias por ver el canal, estamos trabajando por hacer el contenido más digerible, puedes verlo en nuestros últimos vídeos, la medicina preventiva está en pañales en todo el mundo desafortunadamente
A simplistic comment regarding Kimchi, could it be as simple as the fermented product had lower "sugar" content due to the fermentation, hence lower glucose and insulin spiking and corresponding results? The lesson being getting rid of simple sugars is healthy regardless of how it is done.
Some fermented Kimchi don't have added sugar
Your are quiet on K2MK7,which you used to discuss. Please elaborate on newer findings. Your videos are mich appreciated
So appreciate this info shared , plus the clarity of your presentation ,, thank you Dr .
how i wish Dr. Ford can present his content as clear and direct as this one always. Others are too crowded with health terminology and conversation among the expert that I find difficult to understand!
We are working on that, thank You for keeping on watching
I love kimchi as long prepared organic ingredients❤
Gracias doctor es el mejor que he visto con evidencias ❤
Best unbiased and to-the-point video(as described in video title) I've seen from Dr. Brewer so far! 😉👍
If I was to give some professional feedback, on some of the topics raised, I do have some personal doubts/opinions about the long term benefits of doing cardio at 100% heartrate intensity. Which, in short, relates to ratio of lipids getting stuck in the aterial walls at 100% vs training at a lower intensity for longer.
I will just quickly point at the data that shows blood pressure affects rates of lipids getting stuck and thus the speed of build up of plaque! 😉
Thank you for sharing
That' right there is proof I am not smart enough to be a doctor!
Gracias Dr.Brewer,saludos desde Colombia 🇨🇴.!!
Brain, beef or lamb is great too. But an ounce of prevention is always worth a pound of cure.
I tend to agree, way better to avoid chronic inflammation to start with, animal protein looks best for that, however once acquired would going carnivore also reduce CIMT? Who knows, we don’t have the study data. Further I would say there is no “appetite” in academia to fund a study.
Isn't organ food super high in iron and isn't excess iron a cause of heart attacks?
Dr. Ford, been "into" keto since "The New Atkins Diet" ~~ 2012.
Just recently got much more active, won't go into the details but do monitor my GKI with a daily Keto-Mojo monitor.
My blood pressure has dropped, in my two last doctor visits to 103/55.
Not sure if that a good thing (cold plaques, etc) or a problem.
Not asking for a long explanation - just a simple -- "Good" or "Bad".
I try to eat a spoonfull of organic saurkraut, shredded red & green cabbage and a raw carrot daily. Brocolli 3 times a week. Sardines and salmon 4 times a week.
Sardines are loaded with arsenic. Google what happened to Joe Rogan who ate too many.
Only 2 cans a week.
Rogan was eating 3 cans a day.
Drink too much water and you will drown.
Rogan ate 3 cans a day.
