There are now AT LEAST 5 meta-analyses which confirm that dietary saturated fat does NOT contribute to atherosclerosis. This fact was also backed up by the cardiology journal, JACC, in 2020!
Yes, you are 100% correct. Sadly, the AHA and some cardiologists are still recommending a low-fat, high carbohydrate, processed foods or The Standard American Diet, which is the root cause of degenerative diseases like T2D, pre-diabetes, hypertension, heart disease, stroke, cancer,dementia, immune system disorders and Alzheimer's disease.
He still asked'Does this make sense?'. Wrong, it's the data and statisticsl analyses that yield the answer(s), not senses! If cardiologist still prescribes baby-aspirin to heart-patients, he's killing them wit hemorrhaging stroke in their sleep, sooner or later! I lost two friends to innocent-sounding baby-aspirin prescribed by their sloppy cardiologists. There are alternatives with anti-platelet property such ss Gingko Biloba extract or Pine Bark extract, without chewing up the arterial or capillary walls.
Thanks for the interesting lecture. However, let me clarify that the main cause of high triglycerides is carbohydrate consumption. Dr. Robert Atkins, for example, wrote about this a long time ago. Let me advise the respected doctor to reduce their consumption in his diet and lose a little more weight...
The last study i saw showed that 60% of heart attack victims have cholesterol less than 200. Dont need starins... need to drop the carbs to a more reasonable level.
What about that study with a cohort of 12.8 million people that found the optimal total cholesterol level was 180-280? It actually showed more cardiac events the lower patients went below 180. What is your opinion on this study?
@@jschreiber6461 The right side of that U shape was because they didn't have any data going that high. They drew the best line. That means they do not actually know what associations there might be with the highest levels. If they had more data, it is possible that line might have not have ascended on the right like it did.
@@Billy97ify The curve is that shape quite simply because that was the expected direction of the curve. Normal statistic practice rather than making up data. Probably it is somewhat unusual to get levels of LDL that high in the populations that were tested, so they could not get data. Noting that LDL is rarely ever tested; it is estimated.
@@trail.blazer It is not observed data. Stating it in a paper as fact is fraud . Plain and simple. Try that on your tax return or corporate financial reports. To hell with your "Normal statistic practice". How about prison time for academic fraud?
This statement tells me a lot. "We have no medicine that lowers excess triglycerides... unlike cholesterol." How about a lifestyle and diet that does? There are also no bad side effects.
Is that how doctors are trained? Millions of us have been prescribed a statin drug, as one example, to prevent a disease that there is no convincing proof that we're at high risk for. The book "Sickening," by Dr. John Anderson, has a section called "how doctors know." If I recall correctly, they "know" from articles in the major journals; and they "know" from expert panels. The "knowledge" from these sources is, for the most part, controlled by Big Pharma.
The raw data on the side effects from statin's are still unavailable for doctors or outside researchers to analyze to confirm and better understand what the drug manufacturers are disclosing as the side effects of there studies:( Mmmm, have to wonder why that is!
Dr.Michael Coren i was about to welcome your thought processing....educating us about triglycerides.....LDL.....HDL.....Cholesterol......Until i took a wholesome intake of your talk-lecture......to discover that in it THERE WAS NO MENTION OF THE ROLE OF STARCHES-CARBOHYDRATES AND MAINLY SUGAR!!!!! WHY???
Half of heart surgery patients have normal cholesterol levels. It's insulin resistance that drives atherosclerosis. If you are metabolically healthy with high cholesterol you won't need a statin.
Sadly, being a doctor these days makes them drug pushers, unless they can think and research for themselves and be more of a functional medicine doctor.
Stop complaining and be appreciative that they were kind enough to post the presentation for us all at no charge. Audio quality is not nearly as important as information quality. I personally learned something that I will apply to my daily health regiment. Also gained a better understanding and clarification of some concepts. Not bad, considering I am learning as I work.
@@audreyfischer8662 If it's free then YOU are the product. This lecture is to push drug solutions (that are now 30 years out of date). You'd be better off tuning in to Professor Ben BIkman or Professor Bart Kay.
@@aussiesam01 Hi, I get my information from many sources. However, he gave an excellent explanation about what triglycerides are and how they work. Btw, you seem to be agitated. No need for that.
@@audreyfischer8662 If you thought my response was agitated then that is in your own mind, you might find the agitation you imagine will disappear if you stop projecting. However, my point stands - his presentation is heavily drug influenced and he does not even mention the effects of vegetable oils and poor saturated fats, which results in cardiovascular inflammation and influences research results.
@@aussiesam01 maybe it was because of the capital letters you were using. Maybe it’s because you might feel forced into purchasing something but I certainly wasn’t. And as far as agitation, I was singing church hymns, all by myself with the audience of a couple puppy dogs. Happy camper over here. I feel blessed. Like I said, I have many sources for my information. My favorite go to guys are Dr. Michael Greger, dr. Li, And I follow significantly the research papers for the past 17 years of professor Russel J Reiter, with a particular interest in melatonin, circadian, disruption, and mitochondria. I study the research papers, and have them read to me via my iPhone approximately six hours per day. I have a cancer history. I am told by my oncologist I was the first person to beat this type of cancer - - more than 50 years ago. Yes, I am a senior, and I discovered that I had cancer on my 19th birthday, which changed my life forever.
No mention at all of the harm of PUFAs from plant sources such as canola or corn etc, and no mention of the quality of saturated fats. Pure, clean saturated fats are ok.
Well that was so disappointing. Saturated fat doesn't raise your triglycerides. I'm carnivore and eat tons of butter cream and fatty meat. My triglycerides are way down.
Total Cholesterol Should be higher than 200, they reduces the maximum level because of a wrong cholesterol theory. Before it was 300 as max. If your Trig/HDL and Tot Chol/HDL-chol. are okay you should have a Total cholesterol > 200. Taking medicatie like staines is a very wrong actiin. The most important parameter is the fasting insulin level! Because if Insuline stay to high you are insulin resistant which cause a lot of problems.
I think it’s a bit unfair to automatically label them liars. Many are simply misguided based on heavily flawed studies and think they are doing the right thing. That’s what’s wrong with the medical field. So many industry-funded studies are floating around with flawed data and that’s all these doctors have to rely on for their information.
These burst of laughter signify IQ rift between the presenter and the audience witch doesn't seem to be an appropriate target for this type of presentation, they would benefit more from circus type of entertainment with animals jumping, clowns, etc.

I read your 100% correct comment and immediately switched the video off - thank you for saving me time.
I do a low carb diet. I was told my triglycerides were high. Don't understand why.
The last study i saw showed that 60% of heart attack victims have cholesterol less than 200. Dont need starins... need to drop the carbs to a more reasonable level.
That will assist big time twiggy cool comment. Andre
The correct level of carbs for anyone is absolute zero.
@@brucemckay6615 I try not to be an all or none individual. Though I agree, we don't need carbs at all.

That's why triglycerides are not the focus. There's no profit in it.
triglycerides levels are related to your sugar consumption - reduce the sugar reduce your carbs
It's a shame that doctors are trained to diagnose and prescribe instead of identifying the CAUSE of problems.
Well said Ken

Yes, I agree. The medical establishment is all about prescribing medications instead of treating the root cause of diseases, like insulin resistance.
This doctor is outdated with wrong dianoses! 😅
Still pushing statins is wrong.
Agreed 😂😂
The Statins business makes $20 billion dollars per year. Now we know that there are no studies that support the use of Statins .
The raw data on the side effects from statin's are still unavailable for doctors or outside researchers to analyze to confirm and better understand what the drug manufacturers are disclosing as the side effects of there studies:(
Mmmm, have to wonder why that is!
Statins also cause dementia by getting rid of the bodies essential fats the brain needs.
The drug companies often screen out study participants who can't tolerate side effects.
Was this recorded 20 years ago?

You already know the answer: you make money on sick people! You become poor with healthy people.
Noisy, audio not clear
Half of heart surgery patients have normal cholesterol levels. It's insulin resistance that drives atherosclerosis. If you are metabolically healthy with high cholesterol you won't need a statin.
This is about prescribing drugs rather than lifestyle change.
Is this guy a doctor or a drug pusher?
Sadly, being a doctor these days makes them drug pushers, unless they can think and research for themselves and be more of a functional medicine doctor.
Good question .... He certainly talks drugs as the answer quite often.
Well,he is both....leaning more on the pusher side
If you need to ask the question then you know more likely than not the answer
he said he was a cardiologist, what do you think it means, could he be a doctor?
Statins are mycotoxins. Reducing the dose is not necessarily clearing this toxin from your blood and tissues.
Lesson paid by pharma!
great presentation. However horrible signal to noise ratio; so much background sound

Really comprehensive analysis except his LDL level and statin recommendations are outdated.
I hope he KNOWS and will SPEAK OPENLY despite the cowardice caused by the Gov't "regulations"
Well that was so disappointing. Saturated fat doesn't raise your triglycerides. I'm carnivore and eat tons of butter cream and fatty meat. My triglycerides are way down.
No amount of alcohol is safe and drinking wine doesn’t lower heart disease risk when compared to people who never drink
Fish oil raises triglycerides but he didn't explain to that lol
Fish oil LOWERED my triglycerides!!!!
