Ya it’s like WTF are these doctors doing? Maybe eggs are bad. But most Americans suffer from being LAZY AND NOT EXERCISING MORE THEN FROM EATING EGGS. When the damn tv keeps saying if it’s Covid I get paxlovid or the government and DOCTORS KEEP PUSHING VACCINES RATHER THEN NOT BE OBESE MOST DOCTORS DONT CARE ABOUT HEALTH. They love treating symptoms but not underlying problems. It’s like shouldn’t doctors and the government be more concerned about a huge portion of Americans suffer from obesity and other factors that make the rona more serious. It’s like if people exercised and cooked meals at home rather then buying processed food they’d be healthier and save money and reduce taxes going to the government. Big pharma and doctors rather treat symptoms then actually make people healthier overall.
@@koltoncrane3099 You're quite right, except that eggs wont do you any harm, I often eat them. Im 85 with no underlying health problems, dont smoke, drink only in moderation, have a healthy, balanced diet and take plenty of exercie including a weekly 4-mile run and plenty of walking. My golden rule is never to take any drug or medication I dont urgently need, so Ive never been vaxed either for covid or for flu, though I frequent pubs which i know to be infected. I take a number of trace elements at a much reduced dosage, including zinc, selenium, magnesium, and in the winter a Vit D pill once a week. I used to take a lot of fish oil, but nowadays I include sardines and pilchards in my diet.
@@elvinburnett9048 : 1st off, let’s clarify what you said. _ Do you mean “Do not believe anything” or “Do not believe everything”? (Q1) _ So, you need to have experienced everything when you decide if you agree or disagree with it? (Q2)
Blaming cholesterol is like blaming the fireman for the fire. It's the sugar and seed oils causing the inflamation in our veins and arteries and cholesterol comes along to try and fix the damage. 75% of the Cholesterol in your body is made by your body. Eggs can be part of a healthy diet. As always you can have to much of anything. I eat on average of 3 eggs a day, my cholesterol and triglycerides are at normal levels.
Sugar causes cancer, iodine causes cancer, hyperthyroid and hair loss, cholesterol and eggs are fine in moderation. I prefer the whites because i don't like iodine.
YES your right and I am a 40 years of independent research on Nutrition and a Weight Loss Expert and I will make my comment soon about this stupid ignorant video message . This Doctor is serious misinformed and bias.
Im sick of all the influencers including these guys…….yes EGGS are healthy and do the research on cholesterol. Neal Barnard looks like the epitome of health ….NOT
@@kenlee5555 neither do vegetarians. Unfortunately, people are too stuck on the nutrition side of it. Physical health and mental health are very important and the most important is mental health. Happier people tend to live longer vs stressed, angry people. My grandfather had the balance.
Unsaturated fat is also bad for you. The Doctor uses the analogy of smoking to eating eggs really! Then he goes into a sales pitch to consume a industrial product with processed canola oil.
The cholesterol in food doesn't get to your brain to "nourish your brain cells"... Unfortunately all those pseudoscientific meatards are spreading myths because the brain cells are making their own cholesterol de novo from the vitamins and other nutrients we get. Babies would grow up brain less if that's true because many baby formulas contain no or very little cholesterol compared to breast milk!
Dr. Shawn Baker, Dr. Ken Berry, Dr. Anthony Chaffee would be incredible quests on your podcasts! So much conflicting information especially for the health challenged.
Eat grass fed beef goat pasture raised chicken and eggs go low on carbs high on fats avoid all sweet processed food seed oil and live like our ancestors.you will be healthy.
Total rubbish!!! We've had this idea about cholesterol for a very long time and we always think of it as "bad". We've trained to think of those as "bad" but let's look at it...... So we eat on average 300 mgs of cholesterol in our diet, BUT the body manufactures a whole lot more than that, because we don't eat enough!!!! So the liver has to make it and has to go through a 37 step process and it's very-very complex, and a lot of work goes into making cholesterol. Why would the body make more cholesterol if you cut down on cholesterol? The body is not stupid and every thing the body does is on purpose. The body considers cholesterol as precious as part of the bile so that the liver helps you digest fat and then get it out of in the bowel along with the stuff you're supposed to eliminate. Cholesterol is so precious that the small intestine reabsorbs 50% of that which was eliminated so that you don't have to go through all that 37 process of making more. The brain is 75% fat, and 25% cholesterol which is crucial for the functioning of the brain Cholesterol is also a precursor for hormones and cell repair The body make MOST of it, the more you eat, the less the body has to make. The LESS you eat, the more the body has to make. Did you know, that *VEGANS* can have high cholesterol? So this idea that dietary cholesterol leads to high blood cholesterol is absolute BS. It has NO impact on blood cholesterol what-so-ever. Does the body make good or bad cholesterol? It makes appropriate cholesterol for it's needs and it makes the right kind for what it needs to do. What they found in some studies back in the 50s, 60s and 70s when they started this association between cholesterol and heart disease that they found that some people with increased LDL had also cardiovascular disease. So they concluded that cholesterol was the cause of the cardiovascular disease. But there was NO causative relationship ever established. It was just an association, an *Observation* like saying "This is high, and this is high.. but we don't know why". However, one was magically claimed to be the cause of the other... Since that day we have been afraid of cholesterol ever since, despite the fact that it's an important nutrient that we have to have. *The TRUE cause of high cholesterol is INFLAMATION!* Inflammation causes damage, and damage needs to be repaired and so the body UP regulates the amount of LDL cholesterol so that we can deliver/transport LDL to the site to be repaired. The More damage the more LDL cholesterol is needed... AND it will make the exact, right type. What creates inflammation that would cause an increase in LDL? It's sugar and grains that create high lipids (triglycerides). Cut out sugar and grains and that will cause a huge lowering in triglycerides.... *We have to think differently* it's Not the cholesterol that we eat that becomes the cholesterol in our bodies. So it's absolutely nothing to do with eating eggs or red meat
I am a vegetarian. I started 3 eggs/week to my veggie diet. My HDL increased from 40 to 50. LDL is almost same. Total chol-175, LDL-120, HDL-50, Tri-60s, Apo B-100, BP 10 yrs. (except from HDL which increased by 10 after adding eggs to my diet-5 yrs back)
@@Amshatelia88 i do sat the truth i am diabetic and with high blood pressure i take two vartastan tablets 160 each. I take blood test every 3 or 6 months. I started taking 3 eggs a day to keep me not hungry so i loose weight and by that it will lower my glocose witch it did. Test shows taht the good cholesterol increased.
@@tonyborg4510 if you're actively losing weight, your cholesterol will go down, and Valsartan is known to dramatically lower LDL cholesterol as well. This is probably why your doctor prescribed this medication, not so you can continue eating cholesterol rich foods, which eggs are. Please talk to your personal doctor about your situation.
I’d love see the details of the eggs go up study. I had an MI 10 years ago, had LDL in the 120-130 range and total serum number at about 210. I fooled around with diets and exercise. The diet I use consists of protein (3 or 4 eggs every day) and green vegetables, water, black coffee and unsweetened tea. I eventually dropped my statin drug and my numbers have consistently (for 9 of the 10 years post-MI) are 48 LDL and 98 total cholesterol. I know one man’s experience does not make a study but what can I tell you. Looks like driving out sugars (in carbs and otherwise) made my cholesterol, especially LDL, plummet.
These men have apparently not read the book, Carnivore Code. The Framingham study that established the myth that high cholesterol causes heart disease, has been thoroughly debunked. I reversed several health conditions with about 97% carnivore diet. I have stopped my thyroid med, my antidepressant, my anti-anxiety, my sleeping med, I live pain free with severe arthritis and I feel, at age 74, amazing. I get my guidance from heart surgeons, ancestry and quantum biologist, cardiologist, doctors and other scientist.s This man is ILL informed and continues to perpetrate the lies we have been told all our lives. We must do our own research and be our own health advocate.
I also it 3 to 4 eggs every day and my LDL is below 100 and my HDL is 55, my triglycerides are below 100. I also cook with Olive oil and eat butter. I eat fish , beans and lentils greens and eat hardly any meat! I do not eat white bred at all, and just eat a small amount of Swedish WASA crackers and some German whole grain sauer tough bred. I avoid all sugar, pastry, and processed food.
well, I am 82 years old, I eat 2 eggs with bacon every morning since I was 20 years old. I am healthy, don't take any medication and my cholesterol is and has been normal.
Almost 60 and for over 3 years I’ve had 5-7 eggs per day, cheese, 1/4 lb of ground beef average per day, pork belly and other meets 80 % carnivore high saturated fat intake, low carb, almost no refined sugars My total cholesterol recently was under 210, remnant cholesterol was 4, LOL anything below 17 is perfect. No insulin resistance everything else normal no meds. Feel Great. Don’t plan to stop even if my cholesterol will spike to 300 and I will proudly refuse statins. The propaganda to avoid animal protein is a joke, sugar and processed foods and meats with seed oils is the cause of heart disease
PERHAPS, EGGS ARE GOOD FOR SOME OF US SUCH AS MYSELF! My grandparents, passed when they were almost 100, my parents when they were 92 and 87, and my uncles were in their 90's but I can't remembered their EXACT ages when they passed; they all ate eggs ALMOST EVERY DAY at breakfast! I've been consuming eggs since I was a toddler and just last week I celebrated my 68th birthday and everyone who've guessed my age said between 45 to 52! This is proof that certain foods are good for some of us and doesn't affect us in the same way!
Agree with you. I am 64, became a "health nut" at age 14. I have had eggs almost every day since then. They make me feel good and energetic. I need animal protein, organic eggs and wild caught fish are big staples in my diet. I tried vegan; makes me feel sick. Sure, I eat fresh fruits and a ton of veges daily also. Eggs do not effect my cholesterol one way or the other. Kind of proves that we are all made different, and there is no one single option for everyone.
Because there is no such thing as a "One size fits all" diet. Some people thrive on a plant based diet and some don't. I am a mix...my body handles eggs well but I can't eat beef.
Did you notice they lumped steaks an big macs, eggs and cake......think it matters much if you eat junk foods? Maybe they should do a study on people who eat eggs and no "junk food" and people who eat junk food and no eggs.
In 2014, I ate 12 eggs per day for an entire year and they were the most expensive organic yard eggs available. Why? To build my body with the 'finest quality' protein. Nothing good happened; instead, I woke up one Sunday morning with a heart rate of 400 BPM! They said I had Tachycardia and I spent the next several days and weeks in 4 hospitals! My local GP has known me for 30+ years and told me the only way to return to 'normal' is to become a Vegan. One surgeon tried to ablate, but he said "I went a thousand places inside your heart (while I was awake) and I found nothing to ablate!" I still had the symptoms and he said "You may have a clogged coronary artery which I don't work on." Long story short, I became a staunch vegan. It's now been almost 8 years and I will never go back! I feel and breathe better than I did at 16 (now I'm 71). I still walk, work hard all day, sleep from 9 to 4 and am full of energy. Do your family and yourself a huge favor and be a vegan. My Tachycardia is totally gone. I even have better color in my skin.
12 eggs per day. Drink 12 glasses of water per day and see what happens. Drink only 3-4 glasses of water and see what happens. Sleep 20 hours per day and see what happens. Sleep 8 hours per day and see what happens.
So these guys are trying to tell us man made eggs are BETTER for us than natural eggs. I'm sorry but in my experiance is man screws up everything he touches/engineers. Cant/won't buy it!!!
What big food industry is funding this video? Why don’t you and Ken Berry have a debate. My mom and dad are in mid nineties. Eat eggs every day- pasture raised
We ran out of cigs, so I'm going to go buy some more today. Cigs are so good for you, especially with mint flavor. You see i can tell the same about cigs. 🚬
I eat 4 eggs every morning. I eat low carb diet (no beans, pasta, rice, potato, lentil, etc), veggies, and moderate amount of meats. All my lipids are super low
I eat 3 or 4 eggs a day too. And on LCHF diet. My triglycerides are plummeted. In my opinion there is much more concern about animal welfare. But who will think about misery of millions humans that suffer from bad dietary advices?
@@happyTruePeople If you can afford it there are more ethical options - ideally from a local farm who you can observe their practices and decide for yourself if you like what you see.
@@lastharvest4044 There are many ethical questions. I totally agree. But they try to wrap their distaste for cruel farming practices to some kind of pseudoscience. But it is a dangerous, dishonest, harmful way of dealing with public. Everybody should be responsible for what we do and say.
@@happyTruePeople Good for you but in general egg yolks are bad for people. You have genes that have made you so that you can ingest eggs and not have bad effects (yet). I would keep getting blood tests if I was you because your liver can change as you age. The human body is not a static machine.
Because your lipid profile is just one of several biomarkers of risk? Age, weight, gender, blood pressure, family history, stress and life situation, activity levels, metabolic health (e.g., diabetes/ insulin sensitivity) smoking, and diet are just some of the others. But high LDL/cholesterol can relatively easily be treated. How effective are statins as a first line defense? That's a whole other question, but the answer is, pretty effective.
@@Joseph1NJ Thank you for your reply. I gave up eggs for one month. My cholesterol went from 256 to 208 but my ratios were good in both scenarios. Triglycerides 90 before and after giving up eggs and LDL did go down about 15 pts. BP 112/65 and I am in the process of losing weight. Just trying to ascertain if NO animal protein is actually best or is a "little" better? My protein and albumin were also at the bottom of range after stopping eggs for a month. BUN was also lower than normal at 8. (other kidney numbers normal) So trying to decide... do I continue and maybe just try to incorporate more nuts, leafy greens and beans than I was eating to get the protein and albumin up or should I eat a few eggs? (I am 40 lbs overweight and in the process of losing that... have lost 12 lbs so far) Pretty much following Chef AJ and McDougal plan other than a tiny bit of meat and eggs. oh and 57 female and mom has vascular dementia. Stress like everyone else. Diabetes in family but I have optimal numbers for insulin sensitivity (intact insulin 3 and insulin resistance score 7). Quit smoking when I was 45. And do not drink alcohol.
@@11235Aodh I've read most of the China project and other books and follow a lot of vegans on yt. I have gone vegan (8 weeks)and vegetarian (4 years) but the data seems confusing because the brain does need cholesterol and we know one of the side effects of statins is dementia. So is that because statins lower it too much? Are the ranges today really most accurate? A recent study is what showed people with lower than 200 cholesterol ( i think that was average...not just at time of admission but not sure) were more likely to have heart attacks. And why did my BUN and protein and albumin levels go so low when I ate no eggs and barely any meat for only one month?
My Grandfather lived on a farm ate eggs cooked in butter or bacon grease drank raw milk lived into his 90's. One thing though he was very active up until his later life.
sir I can assure you that not a single word you heard uttered by this socalled "doctor" holds ANY significance whatsoever in the real world of nutritional science. Please do your own research. You will hopefully come to realize that your grandfather was 100% on the right path.
My mom's Cholesterol Numbers were normal but 1 week before she turned 90 she had a massive heart attack. All her heart arteries were totally clogged. She ate tons of cheese, eggs, sausage, shrimp, steak, bacon and milk and yogurt. She was known in her neighborhood as the Energizer Bunny. So word to the wise, even Energizer Bunnies can get clogged arteries from eating the wrong thing.
Everything in your body needs cholesterol for protection or building blocks so why is it so bad yes the body makes 3000ml a day but that's less than an oz.
cholesterol does not cause heart desease. Everything you eat will increase your cholesterol. Some people have higher levels than others. We are all different. Cholesterol is one of the most important substances in your body. Having too little is more dangerous than too much. High colesterol does absolutely no harm to your body. Eat as many eggs as want and live a long healthy life.
Did you not watch the video or do any research? Genuinely asking, I’m not saying you can’t eat eggs, ofcourse you can do whatever you want but stop arguing with science it’s just so overplayed at this point.
your body will make cholesterol even if you ate none. Dietary intake of cholesterol has very little impact on the body's production of it. This channel is anti meat, pro vegan.
@@mysteryhillbeats624 so I did check the science on my self! Eating 3 eggs a day for 60 days, i tested my cholesterol and overall cholesterol went up 1 point but my triglycerides dropped closed to half from 34 down to 17. The Vldl cholesterol dropped from 49 down to 15. That seems to be good to me. I find that very interesting to me anyway. Vs a previous diet I was Eating a lot of plant protein which totally wreked my digestive system and, I was ALWAYS hungry and felt tired. Since I have started the eggs in my diet I've lost a few poundst and feeling great. Stomach has settled down too. No ibs anymore either. So for me that's the science I followed Actually Lab blood draws. Wow! No statins needed. Amazing what a diet in higher protein, added fat and veggie diet can do. Go figure! Follow the science
Cholesterol is not the problem! Inflammation caused by eating processed crap is the problem ! I worked in a medical lab for 40 years and I’ve seen 85 yo w 400 mg/dl cholesterol that were fine and someone in ER w 185 mg/dl cholesterol that died that day w an MI ! I drink a raw, free range egg daily in my protein shake w obliterated spinach, fruit of my choice and kefir ! I feel great !
My dietician said all the real data says eggs are one of the healthiest foods on earth. I know since i started eating eggs i feel a lot healther than i have ever been. eggs also have a lot of choline in them that is very good for health.
I’ve found a way to cook an egg so that you’re protected from every drop of fat AND saturated fat contained in that egg: Take the egg and crack it over a pan on very high heat Let the egg sizzle for three minutes. This is very important. Only three minutes - don’t touch it before the three minute mark. Use a timer, maybe. Then flip the egg. Do it quickly. After the egg has been flipped, turn down the heat to low. Let the egg sizzle for two minutes. Set another timer. Use your spatula and scoop up the egg. Before you drop it on your plate to enjoy, drop that piece of crap right in the trash. Put some trash on top of it so it stays there. Boom. Protected 🤗
The good doctor claims that 0 fat is perfectly ok. But what happens with the absorbtion of the 4 or 5 fat-soluble vitamins, among them vitamin A & D? I have posed this question on a number of sites including this one and VegSource (with which Dr Barnard is associated) and have never ever received any answer at all. I am both confused and disappointed.
Ilona, vitamin D should be supplemented even for keto people. If you try that from eggs it's pretty high number of eggs you have to eat. You may eat fish, avocados and nuts for the oils that you need.
I'm no expert. I include a couple walnuts or almonds with food to get healthy fat. I'm 66 yo vegan. IMO, tweak your diet to fit whatever your body challenges are. I have osteoporosis, so am especially mindful of calcium (& other minerals ie: magnesium, boron, vitamin D) amounts (in plant based foods). Never stop learning about nutrition.
0 fat in the form of added oils etc. Because you already get adequate amounts from it naturally occurring in all plant foods, basically. Think about it - where do you think "olive" oil comes from? It's not hard ;)
In my opinion eggs are one of the best foods because I consume eggs for the past 40 years, my father ate eggs his entire life and passed away at the age 94. My grandfather father consumed eggs all his life and he was healthy. People in my town, the raise chickens at their homes to get eggs out of them and I haven’t heard if someone has egg’s related issues. It looks healthy to me.

Dr Neal Bernard, I recommend you so many times... Under my influence my 63 year old friend, who lives in Poland, bought quite a few of your books translated in Polish, under my influence, and many quotes from your books, she shifted from egg and dairy based diet into VEGAN diet last year.

Eggs, like milk, were never intended by nature as human food. Throughout the human evolution eggs and milk were never part of human development. At least not on a regular basis. Farming for milk and eggs for regular human consumption is a very recent phenomenon, evolutionary wise.
Perhaps FARMING for milk and eggs developed over time......eggs, meat, milk are ancestrally appropriate foods....farming plants and grains is the evolution, ancestors did not farm or garden....were primarily carnivores
@@pittsburgh-gal Not really. If you look at our teeth and digestive system, they are basically similar to that of the great apes and they are vegan. The total opposite of carnivores.
When you come off meat total and take a taste from time to time you will get some of the benefits of a vegan diet. I am off meat for over 30 years and I doing good. No diabetese, hypertension, cholesterol. And afew months I came off dairy milk and so far so good. I am drinking lots of water and keeping active. I support all good Doctors. Thanks to all doctors who are speaking out.
Thank you for your informative show, As Always💗 But I always keep my worries in my mind cause we all experienced years when they have changed their minds ( FDA etc) & advised the opposite. So we 60 plus have not much time to be a genie pig so I will keep on eating my eggs three in a week although I have blocked neck arteries 20% I feel life is boring without some white meat and feta cheese & Parmigiano cheese.& eggs Does a 100% plant base diet affect Renal patients, I like to hear from you if they are safe with all that plant base diet "chemical stuff" in Soya food, etc. When I was young tne Doctors used to say Soya food used to cause breast cancer. Cashew Oil cheese couldn't find yet if anyone has a brand name to advise will appreciate it. Every 15 years they ban eggs & animal products then they make them innocent. Love Dr. Barnard find him honest. Thank Chuck🙏 love your honesty as well. You give that impression to us. Thanks with all my heart. Also need help with bone density for ladies over 60+ if we stop eating dairy. And they say too much Almond milk etc cooper in it like in Aluminum pans can make you Dementia or Alzheimer. Some Vitamin companies took them away from their one-a-day tablets. I think Dr. Bsrnard gave this info last year. And are we lectin free by Cooking nightshade vegetables? Or not soaking lentils & beans for 2 days in water. Change the water every 3 hours to get rid of lectins which cause artrihidis🤒 Thank you God Bless you not only for cholesterol but for natural Planet Earth disasters for"Earthquakes 😓"
I haven't watched the video - yet but I'm constantly confused. I also know there is another health person out there named Anthony William - Medical Medium who advocates for not eating eggs. I don't his reason's - yet. But all I can say is I'll just be vigilant about not buying plastic/fake eggs from China - then sold in grocery stores like Aldi!
So now eggs are bad for us.? Omg. I have been a vegetarian for 12 years I eat eggs and cheese my cholesterol is within normal range and I am nearly 63 years old.
I don't believe this guy. I was told the opposite in 1980s in my nutrition school. So eat eggs and know people eat 2 eggs every day. no cholesterol and no fat. I eat cheese butter and cream and eggs but i don't eat much meat except once a month as with fush and white meat. but eat i dont eat processed food or wheat products . Carbohydrates in processex good are the problem. Natural food is good but its the process food that makes us fat.. its all the low calories foods that people eat toomuch of that makes them fat snd sluggiish. I cant think he right. Jusg dont over eat and all pure fresh good is good. Not too much.
Harvard Medical School: "For most people, an egg a day does not increase your risk of a heart attack, a stroke, or any other type of cardiovascular disease... research has shown that most of the cholesterol in our body is made by our liver-it doesn't come from cholesterol we eat.. The liver is stimulated to make cholesterol primarily by saturated fat and trans fat in our diet, not dietary cholesterol. But a large egg contains little saturated fat"... but of course Harvard and all these studies are sponsored by the egg industry - what kind of stupid conspiracy theory is that??
They don't help their patients They are very faithful to their boss the big pharma who told them to lie to us. They are bought by these people long time ago. That's why people are dying trough their lies. People trust them so much and willing to take the drugs that are killing them from their doctors. God said, "my people are dying because of lack of knowledge". Inform yourself. Follow your instinct
I find it funny that the people who eat a lot of eggs are usually the fittest and healthiest people i know and more often than not, the people who say not to eat eggs are not.
If you bake with eggs, try a flax egg! Mix one tablespoon ground flax seed with one tablespoon of water and let it sit for a few minutes, it will get gooey like an egg. Swap one for one in any baking recipe. It's a great way to ditch the saturated fat and add more healthy unsaturated fat!
I am surprised about veganism... Vegans try to imitate animal products to compensate their cravings for animal products. Fake meat, fake eggs, fake fish, fake doner, fake any animal product... People on carnivour diet just eat steaks and dont try to make it fake cabbage or potato... There are so much irony about veganism.
Agreed! So much better for you than eggs! I actually go 1 T flax meal with 3 T water. Just making some peanut butter chocolate chip cookie bars with flax right now!
Such an irony. I found a thousand ways to make animal-like products (eggs, fish fingers, cheese, meatballs, milk etc) from plants. But never found somebody to make a mashed potatoes from rib steak, lamb or salmon. Does it mean what we should eat by nature? We can substitute products to fake them, but we cant to change our nature and our natural cravings. The answer looks obvious. Your body knows what we really need
To supplement Dr. Barnard's response to feeling sleepy after going vegetarian... I felt the same after I was 95% vegetarian. My doctor checked my B12 and it was super low. I started suplementing and the tiredness went away. Be sure to supplement with B12 and Vitamin D. Dr. Barnard always recommends this.
That's because B12 is necessary in the human diet. If our ancestors were vegetarians and didn't eat b12, we would be extinct. Cholesterol is necessary for the human diet, we need it so much that the human body makes it if you don't consume enough. I think you guys are being paid by the food and drug industry, or you are unfortunately ignorant of human nutrition...shame on you!
@@boraonat604 The FDA has made many questionable recommendations. They recommend industrial seed oils, processed grains etc. BTW people with the highest cholesterol levels have the lowest overall mortality.
I have to chuckle at this physician... He'll delegitimize studies funded by the "egg industry". But he'll likely prescribe pharmaceutical drugs based on studies overwhelmingly funded by big pharma. I have zero confidence in his opinion.
He provides evidence. Your speculation is uninformed and incorrect. The PCRM provides links to research. Dr. Barnard has high integrity and has helped a great amount of people. Do your research.
Why do you continue to give doctor Barnard an audience? He rails against eggs, good fats, meat etc. He needs to get himself educated on the latest findings.
Odd. I guess it depends on the person. I'm in me late 70's and I've always eaten at least one or two eggs every morning. My my cholesterol is good without a statin. But this seems to be good advice for the general population where most people's livers are making a lot of cholesterol.
The most profitable drugs in the history are statins. Nothing more profitable then to sell food made from from starch, soy, sugar and corn. So dont be surprised to see anticholesterol and insulinresistance promoting videos. Low carb and paleo diets are their animies. But Big Pharma and Food Tycoons have got a lot of money to silense those who can disrupt their profitable business.
So many factors affect our health. Stress, BMI, sleep etc. I feel better for not taking part in the animal product industry and enjoying the flavours of plant wholefoods low fat with occasional small amounts of vegan junkfood alternatives. So fortunate that all foods are now available where I live x
The cholesterol in eggs are mostly in the yolk! I have two eggs everyday but only use one yolk -- never have I felt better: mental clarity, etc. I have gout and eating beans cause gout flare ups, etc. My grandmother ate eggs all her life.

@@11235Aodh If you don't eat foods with cholesterol then you are missing out on important nutrients your body can use, and your body has to work harder to manufacture more cholesterol which is why some anorexics have very high cholesterol levels. If you do consume say 1 boiled egg and your body is working properly then you will simply give your body a break and it will manufacture less cholesterol since it recognizes you got it from a food.
You don't have to eat cholesterol at all. Our body is designed to produce that in high amounts. The point is that it should not stay too long and in too high concentrations in your blood. The problem can be in the input and the output side. Output side is LDL receptors, the number of which is mostly genetically determined. The input is the liver production and the intake with food. If you have a blood cholesterol issue, you need to reduce anything you can. That's eating less mostly. But eat fiber to eliminate cholesterol from the intestines so it can't be reuptaken.
Seriously eggs are the perfect food. Any food that can create another animal is perfect. There are more vitamins and minerals and bio available nutrition from eggs, then absolutely any vegetable or fruit on earth.

When I was eating “ low Carb” I was eating lots of eggs. My health was going downhill fast. So many people are being deceived by the low carb diets. So glad I no longer eat that way. Wonderful to be eating real food again.
For those suffering with CVD/HBP, egg yolks should be avoided. For me who no such malady, I egg egg yolks for the choline, proteins and other nutrients - and I also exercise at 69 years old. Cholesterol in eggs is bad for those with cardiovascular illness who do not exercise period. Dr. Barnard has always been against the MDs who prohibit lectin and egg yolks - they of course recommend exercise.
This statement is not true at all! Eggs are very healthy. The cholesterol is not the culprit here when someone has high cholesterol. Other inflammatory factors are involved to raise cholesterol, which in fact our liver makes tuns of cholesterol and for a very good reason. The other fact is that if we eat cholesterol, our liver won't have to make as much.
Dr. Berg is not a medical doctor, but a chiropractor. He does not cite any studies. He is also selling supplements. He has his own RUclips channel. When someone has his/her own channel, people often say what others want to hear to get more views. He also promotes keto diet. Once I disputed one of his videos (in the comments section), citing some studies. He immediately put a disclaimer in the video saying that his advice is not medical advice.
Barnard had to say what they want in order to keep practicing. He does not cite one study and even those will be biased. Asking someone who has their paychecks signed by big pharma is 1000% biased. Funny they ignore the thousands of people who are living testimony to contradict his words.

We need to consider the quality of the eggs. Industrially produced eggs are NOT the same as free range, organically supplemented eggs. THAT makes all the difference. This pertains to all categories of food. Veggies grown in depleted soils w pesticide use will be bad for you as well.

This is true. I was on a statin and still had a heart attack. Statins were designed to reduce cholesterol which they do nicely. But cholesterol is not the problem. Coronary inflammation from excessive carb consumption and seed oils over time is what contributes to atherosclerosis. When a blood vessel is inflamed then damaged, cholesterol is the binding agent sent to the site of the damage to help repair the damage. It's sort of like the spackle used to repair damage to to a plaster wall. Statins are totally useless and actually harmful as far as I can see. You might want to check out Ivor Cummins on YT.
As I told my doctor, egg yolks contain a substance that helps prevent macular degeneration, which my father had, and which I have the beginnings of. How much of the cholesterol in an egg gets into your system? Not much, according to some studies. I hard-boil my eggs and have them as part of a balanced breakfast, so no degraded frying oils involved. For a little bit extra money, you can get eggs from chickens that have been fed algae or flax seeds, thus increasing the Omega-3 fatty acids in your diet.
An interesting study would be also with lobster and heart attacks due to a very high cholesterol content. Some have noticed the correlation and spoken about it.
"An interesting study would be also with lobster and heart attacks due to a very high cholesterol content. Some have noticed the correlation and spoken about it." That is not science. That is pure conjecture.

Total rubbish!!! We've had this idea about cholesterol for a very long time and we always think of it as "bad". We've trained to think of those as "bad" but let's look at it......
So we eat on average 300 mgs of cholesterol in our diet, BUT the body manufactures a whole lot more than that, because we don't eat enough!!!! So the liver has to make it and has to go through a 37 step process and it's very-very complex, and a lot of work goes into making cholesterol. Why would the body make more cholesterol if you cut down on cholesterol? The body is not stupid and every thing the body does is on purpose. The body considers cholesterol as precious as part of the bile so that the liver helps you digest fat and then get it out of in the bowel along with the stuff you're supposed to eliminate. Cholesterol is so precious that the small intestine reabsorbs 50% of that which was eliminated so that you don't have to go through all that 37 process of making more.
The brain is 75% fat, and 25% cholesterol which is crucial for the functioning of the brain
Cholesterol is also a precursor for hormones and cell repair
The body make MOST of it, the more you eat, the less the body has to make. The LESS you eat, the more the body has to make.
Did you know, that *VEGANS* can have high cholesterol? So this idea that dietary cholesterol leads to high blood cholesterol is absolute BS. It has NO impact on blood cholesterol what-so-ever.
Does the body make good or bad cholesterol? It makes appropriate cholesterol for it's needs and it makes the right kind for what it needs to do.
What they found in some studies back in the 50s, 60s and 70s when they started this association between cholesterol and heart disease that they found that some people with increased LDL had also cardiovascular disease. So they concluded that cholesterol was the cause of the cardiovascular disease. But there was NO causative relationship ever established. It was just an association, an *Observation* like saying "This is high, and this is high.. but we don't know why". However, one was magically claimed to be the cause of the other... Since that day we have been afraid of cholesterol ever since, despite the fact that it's an important nutrient that we have to have.
*The TRUE cause of high cholesterol is INFLAMATION!*
Inflammation causes damage, and damage needs to be repaired and so the body UP regulates the amount of LDL cholesterol so that we can deliver/transport LDL to the site to be repaired. The More damage the more LDL cholesterol is needed... AND it will make the exact, right type.
What creates inflammation that would cause an increase in LDL? It's sugar and grains that create high lipids (triglycerides). Cut out sugar and grains and that will cause a huge lowering in triglycerides.... *We have to think differently* it's Not the cholesterol that we eat that becomes the cholesterol in our bodies.
So it's absolutely nothing to do with eating eggs or red meat
So informative. Appreciate hearing the science and conversation.
I am a vegetarian. I started 3 eggs/week to my veggie diet. My HDL increased from 40 to 50. LDL is almost same. Total chol-175, LDL-120, HDL-50, Tri-60s, Apo B-100, BP 10 yrs. (except from HDL which increased by 10 after adding eggs to my diet-5 yrs back)

I’d love see the details of the eggs go up study. I had an MI 10 years ago, had LDL in the 120-130 range and total serum number at about 210. I fooled around with diets and exercise. The diet I use consists of protein (3 or 4 eggs every day) and green vegetables, water, black coffee and unsweetened tea. I eventually dropped my statin drug and my numbers have consistently (for 9 of the 10 years post-MI) are 48 LDL and 98 total cholesterol. I know one man’s experience does not make a study but what can I tell you. Looks like driving out sugars (in carbs and otherwise) made my cholesterol, especially LDL, plummet.
same here as soon as i cut out sugar it went way down however if i eat fat and eggs it goes back up though I have familial high cholesterol

sir I can assure you that not a single word you heard uttered by this socalled "doctor" holds ANY significance whatsoever in the real world of nutritional science. Please do your own research. You will hopefully come to realize that your grandfather was 100% on the right path.
I’m an Independent Latino. Totally different environment.
My mom's Cholesterol Numbers were normal but 1 week before she turned 90 she had a massive heart attack. All her heart arteries were totally clogged. She ate tons of cheese, eggs, sausage, shrimp, steak, bacon and milk and yogurt. She was known in her neighborhood as the Energizer Bunny. So word to the wise, even Energizer Bunnies can get clogged arteries from eating the wrong thing.
Everything in your body needs cholesterol for protection or building blocks so why is it so bad yes the body makes 3000ml a day but that's less than an oz.
The Exam Room Podcast is a National Treasure. Thank you

cholesterol does not cause heart desease. Everything you eat will increase your cholesterol. Some people have higher levels than others. We are all different. Cholesterol is one of the most important substances in your body. Having too little is more dangerous than too much. High colesterol does absolutely no harm to your body. Eat as many eggs as want and live a long healthy life.
Did you not watch the video or do any research? Genuinely asking, I’m not saying you can’t eat eggs, ofcourse you can do whatever you want but stop arguing with science it’s just so overplayed at this point.
your body will make cholesterol even if you ate none. Dietary intake of cholesterol has very little impact on the body's production of it. This channel is anti meat, pro vegan.
@@mysteryhillbeats624 so I did check the science on my self! Eating 3 eggs a day for 60 days, i tested my cholesterol and overall cholesterol went up 1 point but my triglycerides dropped closed to half from 34 down to 17. The Vldl cholesterol dropped from 49 down to 15. That seems to be good to me. I find that very interesting to me anyway. Vs a previous diet I was Eating a lot of plant protein which totally wreked my digestive system and, I was ALWAYS hungry and felt tired. Since I have started the eggs in my diet I've lost a few poundst and feeling great. Stomach has settled down too. No ibs anymore either. So for me that's the science I followed Actually Lab blood draws. Wow! No statins needed. Amazing what a diet in higher protein, added fat and veggie diet can do. Go figure! Follow the science
This is not true. Only animal products increase cholesterol.
@@mysteryhillbeats624 Science said most things wrong then later they change and it is according to who did the science
Funny how people come here to learn but don't want to confront the truth. It's the usual "I want to hear good things about my bad habits".
If one wants to slim just take three eggs everyday in morning and you will not be hungry.
Cholesterol is not the problem! Inflammation caused by eating processed crap is the problem ! I worked in a medical lab for 40 years and I’ve seen 85 yo w 400 mg/dl cholesterol that were fine and someone in ER w 185 mg/dl cholesterol that died that day w an MI ! I drink a raw, free range egg daily in my protein shake w obliterated spinach, fruit of my choice and kefir ! I feel great !
My dietician said all the real data says eggs are one of the healthiest foods on earth. I know since i started eating eggs i feel a lot healther than i have ever been. eggs also have a lot of choline in them that is very good for health.
I’ve found a way to cook an egg so that you’re protected from every drop of fat AND saturated fat contained in that egg:
Take the egg and crack it over a pan on very high heat
Let the egg sizzle for three minutes. This is very important. Only three minutes - don’t touch it before the three minute mark. Use a timer, maybe.
Then flip the egg. Do it quickly. After the egg has been flipped, turn down the heat to low. Let the egg sizzle for two minutes. Set another timer.
Use your spatula and scoop up the egg.
Before you drop it on your plate to enjoy, drop that piece of crap right in the trash. Put some trash on top of it so it stays there.
Boom. Protected 🤗
The good doctor claims that 0 fat is perfectly ok. But what happens with the absorbtion of the 4 or 5 fat-soluble vitamins, among them vitamin A & D? I have posed this question on a number of sites including this one and VegSource (with which Dr Barnard is associated) and have never ever received any answer at all. I am both confused and disappointed.
Canola oil is not good for you. Olive oil is very good. Too much carbohydrate is much worse and can cause the harmful inflammation.
True...
ruclips.net/video/MpxgZGnEF7E/видео.html
Ilona, vitamin D should be supplemented even for keto people. If you try that from eggs it's pretty high number of eggs you have to eat. You may eat fish, avocados and nuts for the oils that you need.
I'm no expert. I include a couple walnuts or almonds with food to get healthy fat. I'm 66 yo vegan. IMO, tweak your diet to fit whatever your body challenges are. I have osteoporosis, so am especially mindful of calcium (& other minerals ie: magnesium, boron, vitamin D) amounts (in plant based foods). Never stop learning about nutrition.
0 fat in the form of added oils etc.
Because you already get adequate amounts from it naturally occurring in all plant foods, basically.
Think about it - where do you think "olive" oil comes from?
It's not hard ;)
a lot of drs would disagree ..its when you mix the cholesterol with the wheat products, that's when it's bad
Love how Chuck asks questions that we are thinking and also shapes the interview to make sure all is clear. Great job!
NO Bad misinformed job .....Really the information is scuewed and bias and one sided approach only .
@@BarryAnderson Yes! Both guys are on "Team Vegan"!
Thank you very much, wonderful job!!! 🌿🌾✔️
In my opinion eggs are one of the best foods because I consume eggs for the past 40 years, my father ate eggs his entire life and passed away at the age 94. My grandfather father consumed eggs all his life and he was healthy. People in my town, the raise chickens at their homes to get eggs out of them and I haven’t heard if someone has egg’s related issues. It looks healthy to me.

mirzaman mirzaman,
PERHAPS, EGGS ARE GOOD FOR SOME OF US SUCH AS MYSELF!
My grandparents, passed when they were almost 100, my parents when they were 92 and 87, and my uncles were in their 90's but I can't remembered their EXACT ages when they passed; they all ate eggs ALMOST EVERY DAY at breakfast!
I've been consuming eggs since I was a toddler and just last week I celebrated my 68th birthday and everyone who've guessed my age said between 45 to 52!
This is proof that certain foods are good for some of us and doesn't affect us in the same way!
@@skinnydee1886 no body on high blood pressure medication or cholesterol meds? That's great!
@@Kayte...
NO high blood pressure and neither high cholesterol. They all worked until the last week and, the last few days before passing!
Btw, I've a nephew in law who recently had a heart attack and the doctor said that it WASN'T his Cholesterol; I know that he has a lot of STRESS!
Yes!
Dr Neal Bernard, I recommend you so many times... Under my influence my 63 year old friend, who lives in Poland, bought quite a few of your books translated in Polish, under my influence, and many quotes from your books, she shifted from egg and dairy based diet into VEGAN diet last year.
You CHEER UP OUR HEARTS, not only for the way you promote health, but the AMAZING WAY how you promote CRUELTY FREE lifestyle... Gentlemen, YOU DO AMAZING JOB!!! 😊👃🌿🌾✔️
Love Dr Barnard and good for you for helping your friend with her transition to vigani
becoming more healthy with a plant base diet, you are a true friend.
@@susanhaunch138 She is one of the people who went vegan watching my publications, and Dr. Neal Bernard contributed to this. Dr. Neal Bernard truly deserves to be recommended and he does deserve to be called a DOCTOR... Fake doctors, calling themselves a doctors, killed my Mother... I can call a DOCTOR only a VEGAN DOCTOR, those ones who do not even admit their biological nature (non vegan "doctors") couldn't ever become an authority to me, they've lost my respect, they cause many people lost, so as they betrayed my Beloved Mother... She trusted them for too long and they were devastating her health for too long... When She was shifting raw and plant based her cancer was reversing... But she still trusted them... The amounts of chemo and a dangerous drugs she took from those murderers killed her... I want the TRUE DOCTORS, so as DOCTOR Neal Bernard, to be set on PEDESTALS, and that the greedy monsters who are hardly a lobbyist (but call themselves a doctors) disappear from the surface of any medical field professionals...
Most sincerely, greetings, @YvonneShamsan
@@susanhaunch138 thank you. Warm greetings 😊👃🌿🌾✔️
@@YvonneShamsan Check out dr. Peter Rogers, he does a lot of nutritional video's aswell. He's also as awesome as dr. Barnard.
Eggs, like milk, were never intended by nature as human food. Throughout the human evolution eggs and milk were never part of human development. At least not on a regular basis. Farming for milk and eggs for regular human consumption is a very recent phenomenon, evolutionary wise.
Perhaps FARMING for milk and eggs developed over time......eggs, meat, milk are ancestrally appropriate foods....farming plants and grains is the evolution, ancestors did not farm or garden....were primarily carnivores
@@pittsburgh-gal Not really. If you look at our teeth and digestive system, they are basically similar to that of the great apes and they are vegan. The total opposite of carnivores.
@@okamsug I don't consider the great ape to be my ancestor🤗. That's a whole 'nother topic!😁
@@okamsug they eat bugs as well. Maybe we need to follow the bugs?
Eat more eggs. Avoid sugars as much as possible
When you come off meat total and take a taste from time to time you will get some of the benefits of a vegan diet.
I am off meat for over 30 years and I doing good. No diabetese, hypertension, cholesterol. And afew months I came off dairy milk and so far so good. I am drinking lots of water and keeping active. I support all good Doctors. Thanks to all doctors who are speaking out.
Thank you for your informative show, As Always💗
But I always keep my worries in my mind cause we all experienced years when they have changed their minds ( FDA etc) & advised the opposite.
So we 60 plus have not much time to be a genie pig so I will keep on eating my eggs three in a week although I have blocked neck arteries 20%
I feel life is boring without some white meat and feta cheese & Parmigiano cheese.& eggs
Does a 100% plant base diet affect Renal patients, I like to hear from you if they are safe with all that plant base diet "chemical stuff" in Soya food, etc.
When I was young tne Doctors used to say Soya food used to cause breast cancer.
Cashew Oil cheese couldn't find yet if anyone has a brand name to advise will appreciate it.
Every 15 years they ban eggs & animal products then they make them innocent.
Love Dr. Barnard find him honest.
Thank Chuck🙏 love your honesty as well.
You give that impression to us. Thanks with all my heart.
Also need help with bone density for ladies over 60+ if we stop eating dairy.
And they say too much Almond milk etc cooper in it like in Aluminum pans can make you Dementia or
Alzheimer.
Some Vitamin companies took them away from their one-a-day tablets.
I think Dr. Bsrnard gave this info last year.
And are we lectin free by Cooking nightshade vegetables? Or not soaking lentils & beans for 2 days in water. Change the water every 3 hours to get rid of lectins which cause artrihidis🤒
Thank you
God Bless you not only for cholesterol but for natural Planet Earth disasters for"Earthquakes 😓"
I haven't watched the video - yet but I'm constantly confused. I also know there is another health person out there named Anthony William - Medical Medium who advocates for not eating eggs. I don't his reason's - yet. But all I can say is I'll just be vigilant about not buying plastic/fake eggs from China - then sold in grocery stores like Aldi!
There is no confusion, only that of the egg industry that is doing the same as the tobacco until their lying science was exposed
So now eggs are bad for us.? Omg. I have been a vegetarian for 12 years I eat eggs and cheese my cholesterol is within normal range and I am nearly 63 years old.
Keep eating whatever you are eating,
If it is working...keep on doing it.
I don't believe this guy. I was told the opposite in 1980s in my nutrition school. So eat eggs and know people eat 2 eggs every day. no cholesterol and no fat. I eat cheese butter and cream and eggs but i don't eat much meat except once a month as with fush and white meat. but eat i dont eat processed food or wheat products
. Carbohydrates in processex good are the problem. Natural food is good but its the process food that makes us fat.. its all the low calories foods that people eat toomuch of that makes them fat snd sluggiish.
I cant think he right.
Jusg dont over eat and all pure fresh good is good. Not too much.
Harvard Medical School: "For most people, an egg a day does not increase your risk of a heart attack, a stroke, or any other type of cardiovascular disease... research has shown that most of the cholesterol in our body is made by our liver-it doesn't come from cholesterol we eat.. The liver is stimulated to make cholesterol primarily by saturated fat and trans fat in our diet, not dietary cholesterol. But a large egg contains little saturated fat"... but of course Harvard and all these studies are sponsored by the egg industry - what kind of stupid conspiracy theory is that??
Looks like the keto crowd is now trolling The Physicians Committee. Seems they really can't leave us alone.
I don't trust anyone , even so called
DOCTOR s
They don't help their patients
They are very faithful to their boss the big pharma who told them to lie to us. They are bought by these people long time ago. That's why people are dying trough their lies. People trust them so much and willing to take the drugs that are killing them from their doctors. God said, "my people are dying because of lack of knowledge". Inform yourself. Follow your instinct
I find it funny that the people who eat a lot of eggs are usually the fittest and healthiest people i know and more often than not, the people who say not to eat eggs are not.
If you bake with eggs, try a flax egg! Mix one tablespoon ground flax seed with one tablespoon of water and let it sit for a few minutes, it will get gooey like an egg. Swap one for one in any baking recipe. It's a great way to ditch the saturated fat and add more healthy unsaturated fat!
I am surprised about veganism... Vegans try to imitate animal products to compensate their cravings for animal products. Fake meat, fake eggs, fake fish, fake doner, fake any animal product... People on carnivour diet just eat steaks and dont try to make it fake cabbage or potato... There are so much irony about veganism.
Thank You
No thanks - do you use canola oil and sugar too?
Agreed! So much better for you than eggs! I actually go 1 T flax meal with 3 T water. Just making some peanut butter chocolate chip cookie bars with flax right now!
Such an irony. I found a thousand ways to make animal-like products (eggs, fish fingers, cheese, meatballs, milk etc) from plants. But never found somebody to make a mashed potatoes from rib steak, lamb or salmon. Does it mean what we should eat by nature? We can substitute products to fake them, but we cant to change our nature and our natural cravings. The answer looks obvious. Your body knows what we really need
To supplement Dr. Barnard's response to feeling sleepy after going vegetarian... I felt the same after I was 95% vegetarian. My doctor checked my B12 and it was super low. I started suplementing and the tiredness went away. Be sure to supplement with B12 and Vitamin D. Dr. Barnard always recommends this.
Also, Dr.Gregger mentions that on Egg cartons they can not put words like "healthy" or even "nutritious" since FDA disallowed it. Think about that!
That's because B12 is necessary in the human diet. If our ancestors were vegetarians and didn't eat b12, we would be extinct. Cholesterol is necessary for the human diet, we need it so much that the human body makes it if you don't consume enough. I think you guys are being paid by the food and drug industry, or you are unfortunately ignorant of human nutrition...shame on you!
If you need a supplement to function on your "healthy" diet, is that diet healthy? Optimal?
@@boraonat604 The FDA has made many questionable recommendations. They recommend industrial seed oils, processed grains etc.
BTW people with the highest cholesterol levels have the lowest overall mortality.
That is a clear evidence that we are not vegetarian. Our ancestors hadnt Vit B12 supplements.🤣
Very motivational info. Thanks so much
what a travesty
A lady of 95, lived on her own. I read about her being Healthy and fit. SHE Ate one egg every second day!
She swore by eggs and Longevity!
Anecdotal exceptionism.
This man smoked cigars until he died, I think he smoked 12 cigars a day, lived 109 years.
ruclips.net/video/BXyfCGDnuWs/видео.html
eating one egg every second day is nothing
I have to chuckle at this physician...
He'll delegitimize studies funded by the "egg industry". But he'll likely prescribe pharmaceutical drugs based on studies overwhelmingly funded by big pharma. I have zero confidence in his opinion.
He provides evidence. Your speculation is uninformed and incorrect. The PCRM provides links to research. Dr. Barnard has high integrity and has helped a great amount of people. Do your research.
Dr. Barnard gets people off of medications.
Why do you continue to give doctor Barnard an audience? He rails against eggs, good fats, meat etc. He needs to get himself educated on the latest findings.
Odd. I guess it depends on the person. I'm in me late 70's and I've always eaten at least one or two eggs every morning. My my cholesterol is good without a statin. But this seems to be good advice for the general population where most people's livers are making a lot of cholesterol.
Lecitin in eggs helps to prevent atherosclerosis.
He doesn’t say how many eggs people were fed in those studies.
Most people eat the SAD.
The most profitable drugs in the history are statins. Nothing more profitable then to sell food made from from starch, soy, sugar and corn. So dont be surprised to see anticholesterol and insulinresistance promoting videos. Low carb and paleo diets are their animies. But Big Pharma and Food Tycoons have got a lot of money to silense those who can disrupt their profitable business.
So many factors affect our health. Stress, BMI, sleep etc. I feel better for not taking part in the animal product industry and enjoying the flavours of plant wholefoods low fat with occasional small amounts of vegan junkfood alternatives. So fortunate that all foods are now available where I live x
The cholesterol in eggs are mostly in the yolk! I have two eggs everyday but only use one yolk -- never have I felt better: mental clarity, etc. I have gout and eating beans cause gout flare ups, etc. My grandmother ate eggs all her life. She died at 95 years old with no significant health problems. No one talks about genetics anymore. It's all about what they're being paid by the food industry to say and not say! All these health gurus sprouting out and yet we are still replete with heart diseases, etc.
I have had gout 20+ years with joint damage. what do you use for protein if no beans. I have been taking probencid to cleanse tophi built up.
We are full of diseases because we use as alibis exactly what you said. The exceptions. And my grandfather lived over 90 years smoking 2 packs of cigarettes a day. And drinking almost daily .Do you think smoking and drinking is healthy?
Thank you, i will take it out of my diet.
Don't
Egg is good for us. Egg has the purest form of protein there is.
Don't you need a certain amount of cholesterol to remain healthy - and does that include also consuming the fat?
Your body makes it's own cholesterol, plants also have fat, the healthy kind. You do not need that much fat to make cholesterol.
@@11235Aodh If you don't eat foods with cholesterol then you are missing out on important nutrients your body can use, and your body has to work harder to manufacture more cholesterol which is why some anorexics have very high cholesterol levels. If you do consume say 1 boiled egg and your body is working properly then you will simply give your body a break and it will manufacture less cholesterol since it recognizes you got it from a food.
You don't have to eat cholesterol at all. Our body is designed to produce that in high amounts. The point is that it should not stay too long and in too high concentrations in your blood. The problem can be in the input and the output side. Output side is LDL receptors, the number of which is mostly genetically determined. The input is the liver production and the intake with food. If you have a blood cholesterol issue, you need to reduce anything you can. That's eating less mostly. But eat fiber to eliminate cholesterol from the intestines so it can't be reuptaken.
Seriously eggs are the perfect food. Any food that can create another animal is perfect. There are more vitamins and minerals and bio available nutrition from eggs, then absolutely any vegetable or fruit on earth.
Id like to know how many eggs a day people ate in that study. He doesn’t look particularly healthy either.
Your body your choice. I prefer to follow evidence based science no matter where it leads esp now. Most on YT and popular paleo/keto experts and bloggers incentivized by meat and dairy industry - directly/indirectly. Too many swayed by anyone on any side don’t know how to read a scientific study properly and or rely on media/bloggers/popular names to do it for them or abstracts that can be written by non researchers.

@@jmc8076 it’s not a choice. It’s a matter of feeling good. If your body is not working right for you, you have to adjust your diet and find out what is working for you. The problem is it works for you until it doesn’t. And what works for me is not eating vegetables or spices?
I love eggs 🍳 and I feel great ❤
When I was eating “ low Carb” I was eating lots of eggs. My health was going downhill fast. So many people are being deceived by the low carb diets. So glad I no longer eat that way. Wonderful to be eating real food again.
Dr. Bernard is pushing 70? He looks like he's in his late 40s.
Cholesterol is not the problem, it's inflammation !!
From bad oil like: canola oil, vegetableoil, corn oil, safflower oil and sunflower oil. All coming from GMO the Monsanto products.
Then les eat colesterol all day,and see!😂
For those suffering with CVD/HBP, egg yolks should be avoided. For me who no such malady, I egg egg yolks for the choline, proteins and other nutrients - and I also exercise at 69 years old. Cholesterol in eggs is bad for those with cardiovascular illness who do not exercise period. Dr. Barnard has always been against the MDs who prohibit lectin and egg yolks - they of course recommend exercise.
There are cardiologists that disagree. Dr Pradip Jamnadas for one.
The thumbnail for sharing to Facebook shows Dr Barnard calling down the gods, haha
This statement is not true at all! Eggs are very healthy. The cholesterol is not the culprit here when someone has high cholesterol. Other inflammatory factors are involved to raise cholesterol, which in fact our liver makes tuns of cholesterol and for a very good reason. The other fact is that if we eat cholesterol, our liver won't have to make as much.
The doc's heavily influenced by his veganism. He's an activist for years.
He's helped lots and lots of people, too! 💞
Dr Berg on utube dismisses this and says eggs are very good for you,that the liver makes and regulates cholesterol regardless of the eggs you eat!
Dr. Berg is not a medical doctor, but a chiropractor. He does not cite any studies. He is also selling supplements. He has his own RUclips channel. When someone has his/her own channel, people often say what others want to hear to get more views. He also promotes keto diet. Once I disputed one of his videos (in the comments section), citing some studies. He immediately put a disclaimer in the video saying that his advice is not medical advice.
He isn't an actual doctor lol. And he has jumped on the bandwagon for the money. Now ...eggs are good for some people, but not everyone.
@@RK-tf8pq Yep and people still follow him.
Barnard had to say what they want in order to keep practicing. He does not cite one study and even those will be biased. Asking someone who has their paychecks signed by big pharma is 1000% biased. Funny they ignore the thousands of people who are living testimony to contradict his words.
I have 3 eggs with steak and bacon 🥓 😋 every morning, and don't eat until later in the evening. Feel great enjoy your salad😂😂

EVERY INDUSTRY controls the research outcomes and skews it in their favor! Especially those industries that are the most harmful!!!
We need to consider the quality of the eggs. Industrially produced eggs are NOT the same as free range, organically supplemented eggs. THAT makes all the difference. This pertains to all categories of food. Veggies grown in depleted soils w pesticide use will be bad for you as well.
It's ok, nobody can afford them now anyway since all the farms are coincidentally spontaneously igniting...
i eat between two and four eggs a day, a pound of butter a week, a lot of meat and cook in lard. I eat very low carbs and nothing processed and i do not have high cholesterol.
I hardly ate any eggs for 33 years. I realised that eating eggs is disgusting ,unethical and not suitable for human consumption.
My name is Nancy Reil Riojas. My 94-year-old, minimally active mother has consumed 2,190 eggs in the last 3 years; that equates to 2 eggs per day, every day of the year for 3 years. Her cholesterol count on her annual physical checkup has been perfect all of her life, including the last 3 years. March 30, 2023.
So eggs have everything in it to make a chicken, liver, tissue etc etc. We have the same organs, so wouldn't that automatically make it good and restorative for us!??
Our big brain is a trade off prize for our ancestors' switching from plant based diet to scavanging and later to hunting. So our body is tuned for animal products. Dont let you to be confused by pseudoscience "diet-gurus" like this egghater. We need animal products to avoid anemia and malnutrition.

Thank you for hammering it in, on the cholesterol in eggs, and giving the alternatives.
he is wrong about cholesterol...the body makes it's own,,,when we consume cholesterol, our bodies make less...by the way, cholesterol is only bad when inflammation is in the body...like from eating sugar and causes the LDL to become oxidized...plants also cause inflammation from the oxalates...
@@scottharwood2680 that's good information too and only adds to the health. Eggs are very bad to eat for heart health. I know this already, I like that he confirms it.
The incidence of CardioMyopathy have spiked 30% this year. Vaccine are seen as the likely cause, the Spike Protein in particular. Egg Yolks stop the Spike Protein. So quite the Opposite! Eggs can protect your heart from this new threat!
@@jannsmith1503 he is wrong again...eggs are very heart healthy...carbs cause heart disease...cholesterol is not bad in and of itself...it's oxidized cholesterol that is bad...carbs and industrial seed oils cause oxidative stress on the body...oxidizes LDL and in turn causes heart disease...

Hey mini you need to go vegan immediately
Mates, could you, please, explain me how to fullfil requirements for
Vit B12, hem iron, essential aminoacids, absorbable zinc and magnesium, omega-3 (not ALA, that most people cannot biotransform in their body, but DHA and EPA) and many more nutrients from plants? Dr Barnard definitely knows about these issues. Why not to be honest?
K2, retinol
Hi check out the benefits of avocado
@@ianthaarcher-qp7zk Hi, yeah... We keto folk eat them sometime. They are not so rich in most nutrients as meat, eggs or fish. But we treat avocados as low carb food. And we like that they contain quite a lot of oil. Not bad as a treat.
All necessary nutrients are available from whole plant foods. I've been a whole food plant based vegan for 15 years, perfect bloodwork as of a couple months ago. It's not hard!
@@Amshatelia88 It may be possible if you take supplements to fulfill requrements for Vit B12, absorbable iron etc. May be even you are a good converter of ALA to EPA and DHA. And I could suppose you cope well with excess of phytoestrogens in your diet. But science is science. And it doesnt support avoiding animal products.
Statins are also not statistically helpful in reversing atherosclerosis caused by high cholesterol
Manmade big pharma drugs can kill us. Full of chemicals, designed for their profits. It is not you but to help their pockets.
This is true. I was on a statin and still had a heart attack. Statins were designed to reduce cholesterol which they do nicely. But cholesterol is not the problem. Coronary inflammation from excessive carb consumption and seed oils over time is what contributes to atherosclerosis. When a blood vessel is inflamed then damaged, cholesterol is the binding agent sent to the site of the damage to help repair the damage. It's sort of like the spackle used to repair damage to to a plaster wall. Statins are totally useless and actually harmful as far as I can see. You might want to check out Ivor Cummins on YT.
As I told my doctor, egg yolks contain a substance that helps prevent macular degeneration, which my father had, and which I have the beginnings of. How much of the cholesterol in an egg gets into your system? Not much, according to some studies. I hard-boil my eggs and have them as part of a balanced breakfast, so no degraded frying oils involved. For a little bit extra money, you can get eggs from chickens that have been fed algae or flax seeds, thus increasing the Omega-3 fatty acids in your diet.
my father has mascular degeneration and has been eating 2 eggs everyday for his whole life .. he is 90. So eggs didn't work for him ....
Where is your evidence that eggs prevent macular degeneration? Not anecdotal stories but real studies that are not industry funded.
An interesting study would be also with lobster and heart attacks due to a very high cholesterol content. Some have noticed the correlation and spoken about it.
And so cruel.
Lobster is the cockroach of the sea
correlation does not mean causation...
Noone everrrrr proved that high cholestrol is of ANY risk
"An interesting study would be also with lobster and heart attacks due to a very high cholesterol content. Some have noticed the correlation and spoken about it." That is not science. That is pure conjecture.
I find eggs one of the least tempting foods around. It requires cheese or meat to make it even tasty enough to consume.
This is NOT my crew.
I’m totally healthy!
Local Organic Whole Foods only for me & everybody.

Our body makes cholesterol, no matter you eat or not. We need cholesterol. I love egg, that is my part life meal.
Could you provide a paper about the morning plant protein and serotonin prevention?
I am losing faith - yesterday one of the Zoe team said dietary cholesteral hardly does anything and it is the LDL that is a problem - I am not so sure about some the the things this Dr Bernard sayd - also I have noticed he has some opposing views to Dr Will B. Do any of these guys get together and thrash things out before speaking about these things.
i call bullshit on him, the best cheapest protein is eggs.
@@christianhansen3292 if he looked the picture of health I would listen.
As a bodybuilder I eat 36 raw eggs a day and Chase it down with milk, it's better than steroids, I am huge because of it and healthy!
I am surprised your so healthy eating that many raw eggs. That's because I read that the raw albumin the white, block biotin. You may be taking B vitamin complex or eating food containing biotin, I guess. Hope you stay that healthy.
Be careful. You are well on the way to turning into a chicken.
BTW, Just egg contains "Tetrasodium Pyrophosphate" - look it up.
Carbohydrates are making me fat
sounds like you have diabetes
Because everyone is different.
Thanks for the science. 🙏🏽
WHAT SCIENCE? hahahaha absolutely ZERO science was presented during this podcast kind sir.
I been eating 6 eggs every morning and feel and look great. This podcast is pure bs.
My opinion on eggs, for me the biggest problem is the antibiotics that are fed to poultry , this is not spoken about in the studies.
And the GMO's and glyphosate in their feed!
