    4 Factors that Clear Plaque in your Arteries - YouTube
    • 00:14 🧪 Analyzed six studies to see if reversing arterial plaque is possible and what can be done.
    • 00:41 🩸 LDL particles accumulate in plaques, leading to artery narrowing.
    • 01:23 🛡️ Foam cells try to clear LDL but can become overloaded, worsening inflammation.
    • 02:20 🔄 HDL helps by removing cholesterol from plaques, reducing cholesterol burden.
    • 03:00 🚑 Reducing inflammation helps immune cells clear dysfunctional cells, shrinking plaques.
    • 03:57 🩺 Lowering LDL levels is crucial for reversing plaques.
    • 04:50 📉 Blood pressure reduction is linked to plaque regression.
    • 05:59 ⚠️ Chronic high blood pressure increases inflammation and plaque growth.
    • 07:19 🥇 Three main factors for reversing plaques: lower LDL, reduce blood pressure, and lose weight.
    • 08:15 🚴 Exercise is an optional but beneficial factor for arterial health.
    • 09:10 💪 Exercise has both immediate and long-term benefits for reducing blood pressure and inflammation.
    • 09:48 🏃 Before starting exercise, a stress test is recommended for those with atherosclerosis.
    • 10:16 🏋️ Cardiovascular exercises like walking, jogging, and HIIT are effective for arterial health.

    Will your STATIN medicine give you DEMENTIA? - YouTube
    • 00:00:05 ⚠️ Dr. Seil raises concerns about the potential link between statins and cognitive decline, emphasizing the need for more research.
    • 00:14:12 📉 The FDA has mandated black box warnings on statins for possible adverse effects on cognitive performance, including memory loss.
    • 00:02:34 💊 Many elderly patients are prescribed high doses of statins without substantial evidence to support the practice.
    • 00:03:04 🧠 Statins might impair brain function by lowering cholesterol, which is crucial for synapse formation and neuronal health.
    • 00:04:35 🔋 Coenzyme Q10 depletion from statin use may hinder mitochondrial function, affecting neuronal energy production.
    • 00:05:04 🚨 Statins could disrupt microglia function, potentially leading to chronic inflammation, a known factor in dementia.
    • 00:05:18 🧬 Reduced levels of neuroprotective steroids like progesterone and testosterone due to statins may contribute to cognitive decline.
    • 00:05:31 ⚗️ Statins influence amyloid beta metabolism, which is important in the development of Alzheimer’s disease.
    • 00:06:41 🔍 Patients on statins should discuss the true benefits versus risks of the medication with their doctors.

    Cholesterol & Risk of Death | New Evidence Emerges - YouTube
    • 00:00 🩸 Lower cholesterol levels are associated with a higher risk of death, creating a perplexing phenomenon known as the cholesterol paradox.
    • 02:13 🔄 Similar paradoxical patterns exist with BMI, blood pressure, and hemoglobin A1c, where mortality risk increases as these health indicators move towards the normal range.
    • 04:36 🚨 Low cholesterol in epidemiological studies may be a proxy for underlying diseases rather than a direct cause of increased mortality.
    • 05:32 💊 Directly lowering cholesterol through interventions like statins or genetic factors does not show the same association with increased mortality.
    • 08:16 🤔 The idea of keeping cholesterol high due to U-shaped curves in epidemiological studies is contradicted by robust evidence and lacks scientific support.

    3 actionable tips to lower ApoB! - YouTube
    • 00:31 📊 Understanding ApoB and its significance

      • ApoB serves as a crucial marker for atherogenic lipoproteins, linking it directly to plaque buildup and heart disease.
      • Recent studies underscore the significance of ApoB in cardiovascular health, diabetes risk, and overall longevity.
      • Maintaining ApoB within a healthy range is pivotal for preventing common diseases and prolonging life.
    • 02:02 🍽️ Lifestyle factors influencing ApoB levels

      • Weight loss of 6 to 12% body weight consistently lowers ApoB levels by reducing atherogenic lipoprotein production.
      • Incorporating unsaturated fats, particularly monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, significantly decreases ApoB levels.
      • Dietary shifts from saturated fats to unsaturated fats demonstrate a robust impact on lowering ApoB.
    • 04:14 🥦 Dietary strategies for ApoB management

      • Soluble fiber-rich foods like apples, oats, and psyllium husk contribute to ApoB reduction by limiting cholesterol absorption.
      • While dietary cholesterol's impact on ApoB remains inconclusive, limiting high-cholesterol intake may be beneficial.
      • Additional foods like phytosterols, soy protein, and adherence to specific dietary patterns like the Mediterranean diet can further aid in lowering ApoB levels.

    LDL Cholesterol level: Your lab results explained - YouTube
    • 00:00 🚗 Cholesterol is transported in the bloodstream by lipoproteins, with LDL (low-density lipoprotein) and HDL (high-density lipoprotein) being common types.
    • 01:51 📊 High LDL-cholesterol levels are associated with heart disease in population studies, but caution is needed as lifestyle factors may influence the results.
    • 03:13 🧬 Genetic differences contribute to varying LDL-cholesterol levels, but lifestyle factors, such as diet, also play a significant role.
    • 04:36 💡 Scientific guidelines strongly support the link between increased LDL-cholesterol levels and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (plaque in arteries).
    • 05:31 🚗 Heart disease risk is more related to the number of lipoprotein particles (vehicles) than the amount of cholesterol they carry, emphasizing the importance of counting cars, not just passengers.
    • 06:55 🔄 For most people, LDL-cholesterol level is a decent estimation of LDL particle number, but additional tests like apoB and LDL-P can provide a more accurate count.
    • 08:43 🔄 Raising HDL-cholesterol with drugs doesn't improve cardiovascular risk, challenging the idea of HDL as "good cholesterol," and very high levels may even pose risks.
    • 09:39 🔄 Simplistic notions of "good" and "bad" cholesterol don't align with the evidence; both LDL and HDL are essential, and balance is key.

    How to Reduce Cholesterol Oxidation - YouTube

    Cholesterol oxidation is produced during heating of animal products. Microwaving is particularly bad! Oxidation exposure, naturally, also causes cholesterol "oxidation."

    Chicken 2x as bad as beef!

    White meat more susceptible to cholesterol oxidation.

    fish>chicken>pig>beef>lamb

    Steaming produces high COX.
