    In this video, we’re going to talk about what you need to know if you have high cholesterol on keto. The American Heart Association guidelines actually state that “total cholesterol is not significantly associated with heart disease.” Your body makes cholesterol to make hormones, cell membranes, bile, and vitamin D.
    Total cholesterol is really LDL, HDL, and triglycerides combined. Whenever a person gets a cholesterol test, they may also want to get an advanced lipid profile. This is an advanced test that measures the two different types of LDL.
    The two types of LDL are large buoyant and small dense (sdLDL-C). The type of cholesterol that can be dangerous is the small dense (sdLDL-C). The small dense type may be a better marker for predicting future potential heart problems and a better indicator of inflammation inside of the arteries. The small dense type of LDL comes from a high-carb diet.
    By doing the healthy version of keto, you can get into ketosis and start burning fat. There will be certain times where your cholesterol goes up and down. But, as long as you keep your carbs low, you’ll get more of the large buoyant LDL and not the small dense type.
    A few potential causes of inflammation in the arteries:
    • Seed oils
    • Glucose
    • Smoking
    • Junk food
    • Low vitamin E

    So interesting. I just had my blood test done and everything is fine but my dr wants to put me on statins because my LDL ( not the small type ) is high by his standard he thinks it’s genetic. I should have him watch this RUclips video because I refuse to take any drugs. I don’t take anything right now not even a Tylenol and I’m going to keep it that way.

      Actually, passed a certain age high LDL is associated with longevity, in several observational studies. It's also been shown that LDL particles are involved in the immune response. They can for instance bind to some pathogen antigens and thus help with their clearance by the liver. So LDL is not necessarily the vilain that the big pharma corrupted medical dogma has been painting all along. We really need to do our own research rather than just saying amen to drug dealers.

A recent NMR LipoProfile showed small particle LDL in the mid-range. Given I'm burning off so much stored fat, should I expect the reduction in small particle LDL to take some time before it drops to the lower range?

Dr Berg has helped me so much with my liver problems just taking otc supplements, intermittent fasting and keto, I’ve only been doing it 30 days and have had remarkable results. I’m not looking for excuses to go back to my regular eating habits that got me into trouble in the first place. I’m keto forever, though I may have a cheat day every few months.

    You also mentioned on another video that my cholesterol doesn’t matter when my Triglycerides is really low right?
    I did a test more than half a year ago, can’t remember it properly but my ‘bad’ cholesterol was apparently more than 300, but my triglycerides was 14.
    My parents freaked out cause they still think in the old ways the way most doctors do and begged me to take cholesterol medicines, as they do too.
