It was perfectly fine for a cholesterol of 300. We considered a cholesterol level of 350 perfectly fine. What are you told today? It can't go over 190. What do they want you down to? 150? Do you know the fattiest organ in the body is the brain? And cholesterol is used to protect the brain against chemicals, heavy metals. The cholesterol lowering medication, its side effect is dementia, muscle wasting, Alzheimer's, breast cancer, vitamin D deficiency because our sex hormones are made from cholesterol. And if we don't have enough vitamin D, we can't get the minerals into our bones to have strong bones. So what do we got now? Osteoporosis. Framingham Heart Study been going for forty years, set up to prove that cholesterol causes heart disease still hasn't forty years later. But you know what it did show? People with high cholesterol levels don't get Alzheimer's.

Cholesterol happens to be one of the most important things in your body. I can assure you, and I can prove it from the scientific literature in cardiology, that everything that you hear in the advertisements for lowering cholesterol is fraudulent. Cholesterol betcha. 25 to 30% of the brain's made out of cholesterol. How many people need brains? Nobody in politics. They talk about the cholesterol in the arteries. Yeah, that's been studied. What does it turn out to be? 1.5% of the plaque is fat, and of that, point 5% is cholesterol. 90% of it's calcium. So where's the problem? Calcium or cholesterol? Calcium. You bet.

Speaker 0: They found that some of the longest living humans had high cholesterol levels. Speaker 1: That's right. That's what the Sweden study found, for example. The paper just published a year or so ago, what were some of the most consistent themes? They had good glucose control and high cholesterol. I'm a great defender of of cholesterol. It is a molecule of life. And and so many so much depends on it. Mitochondria, for example. Mitochondria have to have a cholesterol molecule in them in order to work, like the very powerhouse of the cell. And the more you lower cholesterol through, say, drug interventions, the more you compromise the mitochondria. The sex hormones, all sex hormones are built on cholesterol. It's no surprise if someone takes a cholesterol lowering medication, their sex hormones go down. This is why some men experience such terrible loss of libido because he's becoming low testosterone because of the war on cholesterol. Speaker 0: But there's good and bad cholesterol. Right? Speaker 1: Well, that's as the story goes, yes, people will say LDL cholesterol is the bad cholesterol, and yet that gets included in these studies of longevity. So I I think the good and bad aspect of it is not entirely fair or accurate. We need LDL. And LDL is just as much a component of the immune system. LDL actually helps the body fight infections. So it's also an unsung hero of immunity. Speaker 0: There is research suggesting that in very old age, high cholesterol levels do not always correlate with higher mortality, and in some studies may even be linked to longer life. Speaker 1: The exact

"Fat, saturated fat and cholesterol are all very healthy things." "Your brain is 25% made of cholesterol." "So imagine blocking cholesterol production in your brain." "What do you think that's going to do, gentlemen?" "Ansel Keys himself started by saying if you eat cholesterol, your cholesterol level will go up." "He did experiments on humans and fed them 10 eggs a day or something." "And what he found is it had absolutely no impact on their blood cholesterol level." "None." "For every one millimole fall in your cholesterol level, the rate of heart disease death went up twenty percent." "Cholesterol is a molecule." "It's found in human beings, so it's hugely important substance in our bodies."

The speaker claims they have elevated cholesterol but do not need a statin because they eat a significant amount of saturated fat from animal meat and avoid seed oils, which raises LDL cholesterol. They believe a classically trained doctor would recommend a statin, but elevated cholesterol does not mean increased cardiovascular disease risk. The speaker claims that eating in this way means they are metabolically healthy, or insulin sensitive. They assert that medical literature shows elevated LDL is not a significant cardiovascular risk factor in healthy individuals with high HDL, low triglycerides, and low fasting insulin. They also claim there is no evidence that statins lower cardiovascular risk in healthy individuals like themselves, but statins will increase the risk of negative side effects.

Cholesterol is not the enemy, it's actually good for us. Oils are bad because they oxidize, while fat and cholesterol are beneficial. Our ancestors thrived on these nutrients. Issues like menopause lasting longer now are due to our unhealthy lifestyles, not nutrition. The industrial revolution and medical monopoly have harmed us internally.

People with high cholesterol levels purportedly don't get Alzheimer's because the brain loves fat. A good cholesterol level is suggested to be 200-250. It's claimed that many people are on cholesterol-lowering medication and fat-free diets, leading to increased carb consumption due to a lack of satiation. The speaker alleges cholesterol levels have been lowered to get more people on medication and that people are eating margarine. Despite these changes, heart disease is purportedly still the number one killer.

- The speaker claims cholesterol is one of the most important things in the body and asserts, from “the scientific literature in cardiology,” that “everything that you hear in the advertisements for lowering cholesterol is fraudulent.” They say, “Cholesterol You betcha.” - They claim, “25 to 30% of the brain's made out of cholesterol,” and pose, “How many people need brains? Nobody in politics.” - On arterial plaque, they state: “What does it turn out to be? 1.5% of the plaque is fat, and of that, point 5% is cholesterol.” - They conclude, “90% of it's calcium. So where's the problem? Calcium or cholesterol? Calcium. You bet.”

"Cholesterol has nothing to do with heart disease. Zero." "Here's the thing. Ansel Keyes was a researcher. He committed scientific fraud." "He lied on the papers that determined them saying, oh, look, cholesterol is highly implicated in cardiovascular disease." "Turns out he lied. They've proven there was fraud, but yet all the cardiologists and all the PCPs, because the standard of care guideline is still if the cholesterol is this number two zero one, you better prescribe a statin." "And if you don't, we will not defend you in the court of law if you get sued." "My grandmother was alive, the normal cholesterol at my age was 350." "So everybody used to walk around with 300, 350, and it was very normal." "They have not educated you on what really is causing it." "What's causing cardiovascular disease is damage to what's called the glycocalyx." "The glycocalyx is probably the largest organ in your body, and none of you have even heard of it."

- You do not die of too much cholesterol. You die of not enough. I will say this one more time. You do not die of too much cholesterol. There is no such thing as too much cholesterol. - You die only from not enough because we know only cholesterol builds healthy cells. Every single cell in your system, 87% of the new cell is built from cholesterol. It's completely artificially made up. I have patients that have cholesterol of 600. They're the healthiest people, never been sick. - Statin drugs are dangerous, and please remember your brain is built from cholesterol. Ninety ninety two to 99% of the brain is built from cholesterol. The brain shrinks first. With every statin drug, you start shrinking your brain. And this is what people need to understand. - It's mass murder. It always leads to hardening of the liver. It always cuts off at least twenty years of your lifespan.

Speaker 1 challenges the idea that lowering LDL with statins reduces cardiovascular risk, saying: "The only problem is you're looking at that so myopically... It's not that simple." He asserts, "In fact, there's no correlation between elevated LDL cholesterol on its own as an independent risk factor and cardiovascular disease. None." "Cholesterol does not cause atherosclerotic plaquing or narrowing of the arteries. Damage to the arterial wall does, the inflammatory cascade does." He frames cholesterol as "a construction material"—"the liver makes 85% of the cholesterol in your bloodstream"—used to build cell walls, membranes, hormones, and "to make vitamin d three, cholecalciferol." Pushing LDL low allegedly leads to consequences: "joints start aching" and "memory starts to go," with "Cognitive decline is one of the fastest accelerants of aging." He notes, "not one death claim" on a centenarian lacked elevated LDL at death. "High LDL... is a market for longevity" and "the standard of care was killing people."

Eating a diet high in cholesterol is not linked to heart disease, contrary to common belief. Cholesterol is vital for the body, and the idea of good and bad cholesterol is a myth. Statin drugs lower cholesterol by causing liver inflammation, potentially leading to brain issues. The rise in Alzheimer's disease cases correlates with the increase in statin drug prescriptions. It is crucial to prioritize brain health by avoiding statin drugs.

The speaker discusses the role of cholesterol in the body, emphasizing that it is not the enemy. They explain how cholesterol is essential for brain function and repairing damaged cells. The speaker criticizes the overprescription of cholesterol-lowering medications, citing harmful side effects like memory loss and dementia. They share personal stories of individuals who experienced positive changes after stopping these medications. Additionally, the speaker questions the lowering of cholesterol level standards over time, suggesting it may be driven by profit rather than health concerns. The harmful effects of margarine and the misconception surrounding cholesterol and heart disease are also highlighted.

Your brain is made of cholesterol, and statin drugs lower cholesterol. Do you want a brain the size of a marble? Keep taking them. You don't die from too much cholesterol, but from not enough. There is no such thing as too much cholesterol. Burn units use many eggs for patients because cholesterol builds healthy cells, about 87% of a new cell. The 250 cholesterol number is made up with no real science. Some of my patients have cholesterol of 600 and are healthy. The issue comes from table salt, which contains glass that cuts arteries, causing internal bleeding. Cholesterol then saves your life by stopping the bleeding, but it is then blamed for narrowing arteries and raising blood pressure. Statin drugs are dangerous and useless. They shrink your brain because your brain is built from cholesterol. Eat bananas on an empty stomach in the morning to help your liver. Just help your body; it cures itself.

The speaker states they would never take statin drugs because cholesterol is not the cause of plaque in arteries, claiming cholesterol is our friend. They cite confirmed statin drug side effects including muscle symptoms, abdominal issues, skin rashes, hair loss, decreased platelets, sexual dysfunction, mental and emotional problems like depression and suicidal thoughts, inflammation, cognitive issues, diabetes, and ineffective exercise. The speaker suggests that instead of focusing on lowering cholesterol, the focus should be on preventing plaque by addressing the actual causes: sugar and seed oils. They claim that eliminating these will avoid many health problems. The speaker also mentions natural foods and supplements can help with cardiovascular health and lower cholesterol.

An integrative doctor with 15 years of experience argues that cholesterol is not the villain and that money heavily influences the medical system. In the 1970s, doctors weren’t aggressively screening for cholesterol because it wasn’t seen as a villain; cholesterol is something the body makes and it is necessary for many bodily functions. By 1984, the government launched the National Cholesterol Education Program, a move the doctor says was largely funded by pharmaceutical companies that were introducing their first statin medications. The American Heart Association and the American College of Cardiology also contributed to these guidelines, and the doctor claims both organizations were heavily funded by pharmaceutical companies. Based on this, the doctor suggests that if you’ve been told to take a statin or have been shamed for having high cholesterol, you should revisit the issue because cholesterol is not the villain; our bodies produce it and we need it for everything in the body.

This speaker argues that current medical advice to avoid red meat due to high cholesterol is biochemically ignorant. They claim: “Your body doesn't get high cholesterol from eating cholesterol. It makes 80% of it in the liver driven by circadian biology, mitochondrial efficiency, and metabolic demand.” Cholesterol, they say, is not a toxin but “a quantum molecule that's essential for cellular repair, hormone production, and charge separation in your membranes.” The true culprits behind high cholesterol, according to the speaker, are “mitochondrial dysfunction, insulin resistance, blue light toxicity, and chronic inflammation.” When mitochondria fail to produce energy efficiently, the body increases cholesterol as a protective mechanism to stabilize membranes and improve electron flow. They also state that “red meat provides the cofactors needed for proper lipid metabolism carnitine, CoQ10, phospholipids, and even DHA.” The speaker emphasizes that “cholesterol levels rise when the system is energetically stressed, not because you had a steak.” They criticize doctors who view cholesterol as the enemy, asserting that such professionals do not understand human physiology or quantum biology. Throughout, the message centers on the idea that the regulation of cholesterol is tied to energy status and mitochondrial health rather than dietary cholesterol intake, and that adequate intake of certain nutrients found in red meat supports lipid metabolism and cellular energy.

There is a misconception that high cholesterol is linked to heart disease, but this is not true. Research has shown that there is no relationship between the two. Cholesterol is actually important for the body, and the idea of good and bad cholesterol is a myth. HDL carries cholesterol back to the liver, while LDL takes it to parts of the body that need it. The only concern is if cholesterol levels exceed 450, which indicates an imbalance that needs to be addressed. Statin drugs, which lower cholesterol, actually create inflammation in the liver. So, overall, cholesterol is not a problem and is necessary for the body's functioning.

Cholesterol is essential for brain function, liver health, and hormone production. Surprisingly, more people die from heart disease with normal to low cholesterol levels than with high cholesterol. This misconception stems from decades of misinformation and a fear of dietary fat, known as lipophobia. The statin industry profits significantly from this fear, generating over $10 billion last year. Cholesterol is often misinterpreted as the cause of heart disease; however, it actually helps repair damage and reduce inflammation. Therefore, it’s important to embrace dietary fats, including saturated fats and egg yolks, and to reconsider the reliance on statins prescribed by doctors.

Cholesterol is often seen as evil, with people quickly taking pills if it goes above 200. However, cholesterol is essential for life and is primarily made by the body (85%). It's deeply linked to immunity, deactivating bacteria, controlling infections, protecting damage, and potentially reducing the chances of AIDS and Alzheimer's. Cholesterol levels vary depending on the time of day, season, and stress levels, increasing during winter, after infections, surgery, dental treatment, and stress. The speaker admits to loving cholesterol and states that their cholesterol level is 325.

The speaker claims the American Heart Association fabricated evidence to support the idea that cholesterol causes heart attacks, and that some scientists agree there is no evidence. They assert that when people cut out vegetable oils and eat healthier, their cholesterol may increase, leading doctors to recommend statins, which the speaker calls dangerous. The speaker advises listeners to become more knowledgeable than their doctors, who they believe are miseducated. They mention having a chapter in their book, "Dark Calories," about this topic.

Speaker 0 argues that the American Heart Association used money to spend decades fabricating a huge pile of evidence to support the idea that cholesterol causes heart attacks, and that this pile of evidence is nonsense. He notes that some very smart scientists who have sifted through it have come to the same conclusion, that there is nothing here and no evidence. He adds that when you cut out vegetable oils and eat healthier foods, very likely your total cholesterol levels will go up, and your doctor will tell you to stop following this diet that’s improving your health and transforming your life. He warns it may scare you into taking a statin drug, which he calls one of the most dangerous drugs out there. He mentions that there is a whole chapter in Dark Calories about this so you can fortify your knowledge, and that you have to know more than your doctor because doctors are miseducated.
