What would an alternative (or complement) to lowering ApoB look like? Maybe counteracting plaque formation by taking fibrinolytic enzymes? Nattokinase?

Wondering if ApoB 10 is considered as too high, for someone who exercises regularly and only eats (not consumes) plant food, no saturated fat and does not smoke?

I started out at 335 lbs back in November 2023, at which time I decided to change my diet to give up all processed foods, all vegetable oils (except olive), all sugars, and limit my intake of grains to just a few bites per week. After losing 20 lbs, I started on the treadmill. I am now (end of January 2024) down to 295 lbs and have maintained my diet choices reliably. My Total Cholesterol when from 150 to 277. My LDL went from 84 to 214. Triglycerides fell from 161 to 117 (so that's good). Now I'm worried that the saturated fat I have put into my diet (cooking with rendered beef fat or butter), has reduced the number of LDL receptors in my Liver and is causing my LDL to skyrocket. Doctor never ordered the ApoB test or the test that measures the size of the LDL, but we plan to do so on the next blood test in June. I need an oil I can use to cook my scrambled eggs and vegetables with, and something to use when making stir fry meat and vegetables.

Refined olive oil is just as bad as the others. You want that 100% extra virgin olive oil. Also remnant cholesterol (RC) is much more dangerous than LDL. RC = Total cholesterol - HDL - LDL. It's all the even lower density stuff than the LDL, such as the VLDL and chylomicrons.

That's a nice way of saying swap meat with plants.

Since most people rarely eat fish & seafood, unfortunately. I'd suggest taking up to 1g of omega-3 suplements.

Actually I felt this was poorly presented. Not that Gil's knowledge isn't there but felt his comments were disjointed and like he didn't have time to prepare. I think what needs to be emphasized first is how do people find out their ApoB ratio? Well, typically when you go to your Dr for a physical and they order a cholesterol (lipid panel) it really doesn't tell you much. You have to request an "advanced lipid panel"....most Dr's don't do it because insurance companies don't pay for it. Its relatively inexpensive (about $90.00) if you have to pay out of pocket, but will tell you so much more. Additionally when they order your blood panel make sure they are checking liver levels (if its a filtering issue as pointed out, it may be picked up here but more likely will give you a baseline to compare in the future when you make lifetstyle and diet changes to counter an unfavorable ApoB ration). Next get in touch with a nutritionist and review you diet---Be honest! Then if you are lacking exercise in your regiment and especially if you have a desk job and or are obese, contact a certified trainer regarding an exercise program then review that with your Dr. prior to starting (especially if you've been inactive for a number or years, are obese, and or over 40) The idea being 1. find out if you have an ApoB issue 2. Make sure you have the correct information relative to your condition and age. 3. Contact experts and arm them with specific personal information. 4. Review plans (diet and exercise) with you DR and set up a time frame to check progress and retest / monitor. As I said I think Gil has the knowledge but given the presentation seemed spur of the moment and left key factors not addressed. Also DR Peter Attia covers this subject well with a couple videos and interviews.

After having a stent put in due to angina, my doctor prescribed a hard-core statin. It pretty much destroyed my quality of life and I stopped taking them. However, Dr. Carvalho-from several videos and his response to one of my comments-convinced me that statins can be very helpful and can have a positive effect on longevity. I had already become a fan of Dr. Carvalho’s science-based, unbiased presentations. So, I asked my doctor for a low-dose statin. The side-effects are minimal if unnoticeable.

Just search for seed oils on his channel. There's basically no evidence that even highest omega-6 content, even when cooked for long periods of time, causes inflammation. Unless you're talking about something other than inflammation.

I suspect that you've done a video on the dangers of APO B. Can someone provide a reference to that video? I still struggle with the notion that our bodies make a protein that causes us harm without a concomitant benefit. Also, it seems to me that our bodies store energy as fats--largely saturated fats.

He very clearly stated that cholesterol is needed by the body, but not in excess.

HI Nick: i was wondering if you remove certain comments, a cardiologist earlier explained how he uses Niacin and one day a week water fasting and his patients do well, I asked him a question, I no longer see his or my comment. Another question of for Dr. Gil, whom I respect so much and enjoy his content as much I enjoy your content. Dr. Gil, I heard in this video you said that Statins actually reduce the size of the plaque in Coronary arteries , however, if your interview with Dr. T.Dayspring "5 myths about Coronary A. Calcium score", he say that Statins actually calcify the plaque and thus "prevent it from rupture", also in many of his videos I have heard him say" Statins don't reduce the size of plaque, nothing does reduce the size of plaque once it is formed, but Statins reduce the complications of an MI or Strokes. So my questions for both of you , is please make a video on studies that show Statins actually reduce the size of plaque if that is the case, as well as exactly what Statins do? do they reduce the size of the plaque or prevent its growth? do they stabilize the plaque by calcifying it thus preventing rupture? do they reduce poor outcome once someone has had an MI? do they actually prevent MI or stroke? thank you both for excellent content

I only remove comments that are rude, never anything else. I haven’t removed any comments on this video. I’ll cover statins when I have time to do the analysis as well as am prepared to receive insults (because it’s such a hot button topic and people often feel it’s okay to insult someone they disagree with). It’ll get done, though.

Thanks Nick for your response. I look forward to your analysis of Statin because I do find some bias from top doctors [not Dr. Gil] either over demonizing or minimizing their side effects@@Physionic

@zhilahaghbin4766 , the comment is still there, it is from @knockstarstv5711, from 3 months ago: "Im a cardiovascular doctor and have put patience on 500-1,000 mg of Niacin with a plant base diet, with 1 day water fast per week, and have seen drastic improvements with this is several patients. To counter some of the Niacin sides I've incorporated some light carbs when taking Niacin. Cheers."

Surprised he didn't mention niacin for lowering apob. It is a natural way of lowering apob instead of a statin.

How does ApoB relate to lipoprotein A?

Please mention that red yeast rice is a statin.

Can't you interview a chiropractor about APOb, we need some diversity here. ;-)

- Lose weight - Diet: Change butter for unsaturated fat Use less saturated fat for cooking Dietary cholesterol doesn’t matter that much Genetics play a role Soluble fiber may help Fructose can increase Apob Soy bean may decrease apob - Supplements (red yeast, psyllium husk etc)

wow, 20-30% of people are hyper-absorbers of cholesterol. I think its easy to miss that one little line in the interview, but up to 1/3 of people might fall here. Major ramifications for diet. Can this be tested for?

You and Gil should start a company.

First explain how the relatively gargantuan LDL or associated cholesterol particles get through and across the 20 - 30 compiled tight junction epithelial layers , miraculously never leaving behind a cholesterol particle anywhere in between that can't ever be found on more over 60,000 histological examinations . plaques don't form on the inside of the epethelial lining , only on the outside starting and progressing from capillaries feeding the vaso vasorum - smooth muscle surrounding the arteries. Cholesterol plaques do "NOT" accumulate "inside" arteries , but rather exits capillaries at the arterial end points where smooth muscle cells are damaged , and inflammation . the bulging plaques pinch and loosen the thick lining never traversing to the inside until mechanical forces tear through completely , thus , never has a LDL or cholesterol particle been obseved microscopically in mid transport caught somewhere within the 20 -30 + tightly interconnected layers . To back up to proven fact then , A pertinent question , is 1. How does the functional mechanism of Apob tagged LDL traverse problem free through the entire lining of the length of the Artery to its end cappillary points contribute to cholesterol deposition there and WHY would more LDL-apob be observed circulating in drawn veinous blood (past the cappilaries ) of plaque formers , instead of "much less" numbers , if they are tied up in dumping and delivering the cholesterol cargoes at the problem areas. the corrective indication of lowering the rate of plaque building would be to observe in progressive blood draws , a elevating presence in more apob LDL that hasn't bothered to stop and deliver its cargo would end up in your blood vial . So the improvement measure woukd be observing elevating levels not lowering levels .

And, what does a very lowfat diet do?

Fasting causing insulin resistance? Hahahahaa. Just no, it improves it, but reduces stored insulin since body isn't expecting food, slowing the first meal response to glucose. As for LDL, David Diamond goes through studies of people with Familial Hypercholesterolemia, showing that high LDL isn't really a problem for longevity, the opposite in fact. Same reason statins generally don't work to reduce either total or even CVD deaths.

Best treatment for atherosclerosis: Vitamin C Why do only coronary arteries clog with cholesterol and not veins or small capillaries? Scurvy = No vitamin C in your diet. Symptom: Your blood vessels break and you bleed to death. Think of the sailor of the past. Scurvy of the heart = Just enough vitamin C from food. Symptom: Arteries around the heart are not strong enough to resist high blood pressure. Damage is repaired with cholesterol LP(a) to prevent worse. After years of repair, your arteries become clogged. Enough vitamin C supplement of at least 3000 mg. per day gives strong and flexible arteries. Cholesterol is not needed as a repair agent. Cholesterol in your coronary arteries is broken down and burned in your liver. Source KZread: - Cardiovascular disease and vitamin C (Dr. Rath Foundation) - Ending the Cardiovascular Epidemic by Natural Means - Dr. Matthias Rath

Until science has demonstrated the CAUSE(S) of CVD I will stick to PKD. It makes me feel the best I ever have for decades. Risk factors are based on correlation not causation and what is laughable is that age is most of the time part of the equation.

Cut back on soda? No, eliminate soda from your diet.

One criticism. Gil implies ApoB is causative to heart disease, but actually failed to provide evidence as to wether it is associated with or causative. In either case, lifestyle changes (dirt / excercise) that reduce ApoB may well be seen to reduce risk of CVD. Personally I doubt ApoB is associated with, part of the repair mechanism, rather than being responsible for the damage the body is trying to repair

Apob causss arteriosclerosis Micro ldl too. So does insulin resistance, FFA , excess fructose and sugar, smoking, fried foods or excess fats in o e meal, eating fatty high calorie and fat and sugar mixed ( I scream) all this discussion is based on dingle variables. Aren’t they useless?
