Cholesterol & Keto: How to Lower Your Cholesterol on the Keto Diet

This video teaches you how to lower cholesterol on the Keto Diet.
The Keto Diet is a great way to reduce your blood sugars, lose weight, and eat well. But it's often hard to keep your cholesterol in check on the Keto Diet. In fact, the most common issue people have on Keto is high LDL levels. In this video I'll explain the impact Keto has on the three cholesterol measures - LDL, HDL, and triglycerides. I'll also discuss why LDL goes up on Keto and some simple hacks you can use to keep your LDL right where you want it while you're on the Keto Diet.

    I just started taking fiber powder and upping my protein and I am going to begin to lower saturated fat but replace it with the other fats you mentioned. So, not long enough to see a change in my LDL yet but I have been on low carb for a year and it cut my triglycerides in half and my HDL is a little better now too. I also feel better on low carb but it upped my LDL so looking forward to adding fiber and poly and mono fats. Thanks for great information and for caring.

    Well I nearly had it right, lots of salad and veg, reduced fruit to berries, removed ultra processed, reduced dairy, but kept greek yoghurt, upped avocados, fish and nuts, tried to get grain free, no potatoes, limited alcohol, intermittent fasting, took vitamins and minerals, virtually only drink water. Result.. Lost weight, lost hair,blood work is nearly brilliant, feel great. Cholesterol went really high, never had a problem with it before. Prescribed statins, but have said I intend to change my diet, re test, and see if there is a difference. So less meat for me for the next few months, and stricter check on my cooking. Shame the nice piece of meat made the rest of the diet bareable.

    :) Great video, thank you! They say that the skinnier the person is, the greater increase in LDL they will have on keto diet (together with high HDL and low triglycerides). Have you notice such correlation in your practice? If overweight person goes keto, LDL drops, but if healthy skinny person does the same LDL goes sky high?

  • @TheColson79

    More studies show that cholesterol isn’t a good indicator of heart disease. LDL isn’t bad. The type of LDL is more important than the amount. Small high density LDL is bad but large fluffy LDL is fine.

    Wow, how dangerous to say that all you need 50 to 70 g of protein a day that’s ridiculous only 7% of your protein makes it to your muscle 7% 14 is released. Tell me the Kandrea and only 7% make it by the time it gets to muscle so you would need at least 1 g of protein per body pound to be able to even come close to maintaining lean body mass of muscle, you need to do more study on this you’re obviously deficient when it comes to knowledge on proteins see Dr. Lyons, Gabriel, Lyons, and Dr. Laymen your muscle activates at 3 grams of loosing, which is about 30 g of protein think about that a minute your body style is an ectomorph. You have a whole different profile gonna send them off. If they followed your plan, they probably die of lack of muscle you barely surviving at 50 to 75 g of protein a day.
