Dr Mason is not going to lose funding for whatever results he finds. Whilst he obviously only has a designated time frame in which to present his findings, so of course he will need to chose the studies he uses to convey his concepts carefully, I do not believe he is choosing those studies on the basis of bias. I have never seen any evidence that Dr Mason deserves his character maligned, and think it is careless of you to do so without some evidence. BTW Character assassination is a feminine personality trait, so not so common in males.

Excellent presentation, thank you!

Fantastic talk as usual!

Here is a ChatGPT summary: - This lecture is about the science which contradicts nearly everything Dr Paul Mason learnt about LDL in medical school. - The lipid hypothesis states that eating fat causes our LDL level to rise, which then blocks our arteries. - A systematic review found that individuals with the highest LDL levels lived the longest. - LDL is a complex structure called a lipoprotein made of fat, cholesterol and protein. - Dietary cholesterol and saturated fat do not increase LDL levels. - LDL particles can be damaged, leading to an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. - Triglyceride levels and the ratio of triglycerides to HDL can be used to assess the probability of a lipid profile being artery clogging. - Higher LDL levels are on average associated with longevity, but not in every case. - Dairy can contribute to insulin resistance and B12 deficiency is causally associated with increased LDL. - Low vitamin B12 can lead to an increase in cholesterol synthesis. - The standard B12 reference interval does not reliably identify B12 deficiency. - Tumor necrosis factor alpha can cause overproduction of LDL, up to 8 times normal. - Elevated triglyceride levels can be caused by an underactive thyroid, kidney disease, diabetes, hemochromatosis, and certain drugs. - LDL is not the major cause of heart disease, but oxidised LDL can be a problem. - The triglyceride to HDL ratio is a reliable way of predicting oxidised LDL. - Very elevated LDL levels may be symptomatic of another issue.

Fantastic. Just love Dr Paul Mason. This is such an important video which corrects some common misunderstandings of lay people and doctors alike. Thanks.

Dr. Mason has become one of my most favorite resources for health information. This was a fantastic presentation. I especially took note of the info about dairy. Interestingly, in Dr. Ken Berry's recent expose on KZread we learned that lactose and fructose are not tested for glycation with the A1C. This supports what you just explained about the insulin resistance and damage increasing anyway. Dr. Berry went on to say that the damage from the fructose and lactose is 7-10 times greater than just glucose! Thank you so much for your work, with this info from both of you, I'm taking dairy off my allowed list in my keto groups.

Hilarious Ozzie humour …..although a very serious subject. Well done Paul, that was an excellent presentation !

Very compelling talk....only I'm not convinced that dairy can cause insulin resistance or that this condition can arise in a low carbohydrate context. The study referred in the talk is about obese subject most of whom glucose intolerants, and the diets fallowed were high carbohydrate diets. The dairy group was eating 230 g of carbohydrate a day along with the low-fat cheese, milk and yogurt, (and 250 kCal more than the control and dairy groups) whereas the meat group was consuming 180 g of carbohydrate a day … not so sure that one can put the blame on cheese

@giuseppebonatici7169

Ай бұрын

I think so too. but there is a caveat. keto produces moderate insulin resistance over time. this makes sense as some organs needs the sugar, so some generate insulin resistance to only consume ketones as main fuel, and spare sugar consumption to organs that need it more (this, is for example, why in keto/carnivore you usually need to increase the consumption of salts the first months or so, as the blood does not have enough sugar to give to every tissue in the body AND produce corticosterone (the lack of can produce cachexia/wasting disease) ) the meaning of insulin resistance is strongly organ specific, makes talking in the generality of insulin resistance in blood (aka, how much of your organs are responsive and in need of sugar) not a clear indicator to anything in low-carb conditions as ketones change completely the apparent role of insulin (so called physiological insulin resistance). and so, even if dairy can induce insulin resistance in some way in low carb, there is no strong evidence to relate them to any of the discussed in the video, as all experimental data is extrapolating, essentially, from other metabolic framework.

Brilliant doctor! 👏 Well said!!!

Dr Mason, you might be interested in how my numbers have changed. Good news (and I am very surprised) is my CAC = 0, 65 years old female. I've been low carb for 1 year but about 6 months ago I started eating more eggs and dairy so 2 known variables. First number is the Oct 2022 test, bracketed number is Oct 2021 before starting low carb. Total Chol 8.7 (7.9), Trig 1.0 (3.0), HDL 1.7 (1.1), LDL 6.5 (5.4), HbA1c 5.2 (7.0), ALT 19 (45), GGT 19 (38, was 61 in 2015). Ultrasound (mention of fatty infiltration in 1999): liver fat was moderate in 2019 (probably got worse 2020/2021) and is now (just last month) mild. Weight: 64kg (80kg) only stretches and strengthening exercises. Waist: 38" (44"). I will be seeing a low carb doctor tomorrow so I will be interested to hear his comments. I would really like to get the LDL particle size test done out of curiosity.

Good for you! Same thing happened to me.. I had metabolic syndrome and only found this out because I paid a nurse practitioner to do my blood work because I was starting TRT.. Im 53 and NOT ONCE has any GP Ive ever had told me this was happening and that I was heading for a heart attack. I researched how I this happened to me and learned everything I could, then the solution was clear.. carnivore. In 6 months I went from 290lbs to 215lbs, triglycerides from 9 to 2, type 2 diabetes markers gone... NAFLD gone, liver enzymes back to normal... and a slew of other blood counts and symptoms fixed, just like that. So many things got better that I cant even remember them all right now. My GP saw all my counts and weight loss and he literally looked up at me and said "youre LDL is high, I want you on a statin".. talk about wearing blinders.. he literally ignored everything that I corrected and fixed (it should have stunned him) and was only obsessed with my LDL. Made me sick actually.. to know our doctors are so brainwashed they literally dont seem to be able to think for themselves.

What a great explanation! I used to have much elevated triglycerides and "normal" LDL. Changed diet to low carb and things looking much different.

What I AM doing is having a greater proportion of fermented dairy over raw milk. I make kefir, buttermilk and filmyolk, all simply brewed at home from the supermarket version as a starter.

Hi Paul, I am a patient of yours and you have summarises concisely the cholesterol mechanism based on my researching the subject. Well done and I am proud to be your patient. Reasonably so, your talk does not deal with specific hot plaque situations in LAD coronary artery needing urgent attention to avoid rupturing into the blood stream and clotting, so you may consider mentioning Rosuvastatin and Ezetimide as a temporary way of suppressing atherogenic particles and stabilising a plaque, basically allowing it to calcify…accepting that this should be secondary to a proper diet and not to be used as a first line of defence…like the statin pushers do. Just some thoughts. Colin

The only other piano I as is extra virgin olive oil. Have also cut out some pasta meals although not completely as I like a quick pasta dish.

Insulin goes up due to serum glucose. For many, this is due to starch intake. Simple starches are converted, almost entirely, to glucose. But, the "sugar" in milk, Lactose, is a disaccharide of galactose and glucose, so, it is not surprising that high milk intake could raise Insulin and stimulate insulin resistance.

Hopefully one day Paul's research and evidence can help change people lives .

The reason there is almost no studies focusing on long term health is because it's a sin to profit from It. The regulations doesnt allow the companies that profit the most from healthy clients (health insurance) to profit enough to finance studies that focus on long term health. They arent even allowed to discriminate clients based on their habits. Calling It predatory capitalism is a mistake, since no regulations is the main characteristic of capitalism, and besides banking, health is the most regulated area. You can notice that both areas are bad, not because of capitalism, but because of the regulations (fascism is the term you are looking for, when the state controls private property with laws and regulations, it's more effective than banning private property (comunism)).

My LDL did rise quite a bit but triglycerides went from very bad to normal range. HDL climbed drastically. I’m own finding show on a keto way of life did raise LDL but blood sugar, HDL and triglycerides all went from bad to great. My assumption is that as long as all other markers are normal the elevated LDL means very little. Kidney function was also normal and BP was very good. I live LC and never looking back.

Just went to cardiologist today over eptopic heart beats I have developed. He wasn’t worried about that but worried about cholesterol. Only number I was worried about was tryg of 3.6.

Very high HDL (3) with moderately low Trigs (1.5) can confuse things? For example: trigs =1.5 divided by hdl = 3 = 0.5. Compare this with more likely: trigs=1.0 divided by 2.0 = 0.5. Is there a trig value that overrides the ratio? Is a high trig value more important than the ration?

Good to hear this presentation, let's move on from this LDL/HDL stuff. On dairy increasing insulin resistance, it would have been good to know what was or was not included in "dairy": If someone is drinking lots of milk, especially skimmed milk then it would be expected because of the galactose (milk sugar) present, especially in skimmed milk. But if we're talking about butter, heavy cream (within reason) and properly matured cheese, there are only negligible amounts left. There shouldn't be any significant insulin response to that. If it turns out to be the case then it's an issue to be investigated. But, until otherwise informed, I'm assuming it was due to the consumption of milk, especially with the popularity of semi-skimmed milk (skimming decreases fat content which results in increase in galactose content in what's left).

It's probably just nonsense. Statistics don't have much place in nutrition, if any.

On skim milk: whey also has a fast insulin response compared to many other proteins.

If you look at the study he showed in the video, the diet was "high in dairy primarily low fat (milk, yogurt, or custard)" - not exactly the kind of dairy someone on a low carb diet would consume. I'm curious if the correlation would hold between low carb dieters who do or don't include dairy, though

We drink moderate amounts (1 gal every other week) of A2 raw milk a major plus for gut microbiome.

This is a very interesting lecture. Does Dr. Mason ever explain why the particles become smaller? Is this really 'damage' or the body's intention to somehow use the smaller particles?

We listen to Dr Mason and follow his advice! Weve been Keto-Carnivore 8yrs now but one issue we are confused about and hoping for adice! We recently had lipid particle size by a Dr we both expected type A esp because when we used to formula for calculating divid tri by hdl we both came out A! But my husband was shown to have B! We were so surprised and have never heard anyone talk about people who are eating good, at a good weight, avoiding sugar/carbs and eating good oils having type B or small dangerous kind of lipid! Everyone who teaches on it says it overweight people who eat bad have it! We are at a lose for what to do what to expect?? Are there people because of genetics no matter how they eat they have type B? We are confused and would love someone to tell us if this happened to them or have you heard of this or is there someway Dr Mason could speak to people like my husband who do the right things but still have the dangerous small type B???

I have a lipoprotein little(a) number of 6000 with a zero calcium score at 52. No visible blockage. We're all confused by it. I come from a line of long living women with super high cholesterol, so I still think there is lots of mystery around this topic. My mom is a vibrant 87 year old with 400-500 level total cholesterol. My grandmother same thing lived to be almost 100. Weird. Oh...triglycerides are only at 50. Super weird!

I think we attempt to label large numbers of people, placing them in absolute categories, but we are all quite different and one size does not fit all. One has to ask, how did the scientists decide what level is good or bad? I used to practice pharmacy and was practicing when the first statin drug was introduced. At that time there was a lot of discussion regarding what level of cholesterol was considered "bad". An arbitrary number of 250 total emerged. Then in the span of a few years it was lowered to 200. The statin drug industry is worth billions.

Superb!!!

I'm new to this and scrutinising some recent blood results. Is this correct? My HDL/Triglycerides ratio is = triglycerides 0.6 (mmol/L) divide HDL 1.21 = 0.49?

Question: “Dairy” is a broad catch word, so it begs the question: all dairy, or specific types? I drink heavy cream vs. milk as the heavy cream has no sugar. However, it’s so rich and filling that a small amount, perhaps 1/2 c, is all I can handle.

You sound like me. I don't consume milk as it contains lactose but I do consume cream and cook with butter and ghee. I don't think cheeses will kill us either. At least not the good ones.

Dairy increases insulin resistance. Is that all dairy or is fat (ghee/clarified butter) excepted? Does it matter if it's from cows (casein A1) compared to goats/sheep (casein A2)?
