I question everything, especially advice from government health organizations after reading 'Health and Beauty Mastery' by Julian Bannett, this book exposes so many shocking truths about the health industry. I completely changed my habits.
I was keto (20T carbs) for 3 years... went whole food plant based (no oil sugar or salt) for 6 years..... cholesterol started going up. Doc told me at my age 68, I needed more protein... SOOOO I went back to keto with meat, Dr. Westman's page 4 and guess what... my cholesterol went down a little... BUT, my triglycerides went way down and HDL went up, and my doc said, I don't need statins! I'm now 69!
I would love to hear you review Dr. Peter Rogers discussing humans as "starchivores". That we are to eat more starches & fiber and less protein and fat.
@@christiroseify If you haven't watched his debate with Prof. Bart Kay, it's certainly worth a watch. Bart kept insisting that science is litigated through experiment, and that we CANNOT extract causality from weak epidemiogical studies and Peter replying "well it's the best we've got and we have to work with what we've got". Bart's reply, as always, was "Fine; but do not imply causality and use words like 'risk', because the connection just isn't there!". It embodied the whole problem with the pseudo-scientific community: they're willing to sacrifice PROPER scientific rigour in order to make inappropriate cause-and-effect statements to support their ideology/theology. BTW, Bart broke the discussion into half a dozen shorts. He made Peter look a complete fool, but of course Peter claims on his own channel that he won the debate. You be the judge.
Recently, my 14-year-old daughter had blood work done and they informed her parents that her LDL was 400. I think she fits into the lean mass hyper responder she’s 107 pounds and and she’s 5’1” and she’s very low carb. She learned somewhere that she could clear up her complexion by not eating so much sugar which it has worked but her pediatrician wants us to see a specialist. Yay my wife and I are not on the same page.
@@SpikeFastingRacing Do you always accuse people of lying when they say something that conflicts with your ideology, or do you have evidence of lying? I assume you believe a team of doctors from coast to coast are also lying?
When you consider that humans lost 5 inches in height and about 15% of their brain size with the advent of agriculture, I think you might reconsider your view that many diets can be healthy. Jawlines got narrower, and tooth crowding became an issue. Such crowding was not seen in the remains of pre-agricultural humans, who enjoyed far better dental health than modern people. Before the agricultural revolution, stable isotope testing of long bones reveals that humans and their predecessors consumed a diet comprising 80% animal products. Humans are obligate carnivores, with stomach acidity greater than lions.
Vegan is a religion. But YES, have had many patients go from Standard American Diet to Vegetarian and have been vegetarian for 5+ yrs. They all lost weight, reversed their diabetes, improvement in all blood markers and reduced plaque. Now hoping at some point to get them to join my other patients go keto / carnivore. Of course, patients are the boss, their body, their choice.
@paulhailey2537 awesome!!! Everyone is different. Sometimes it is the type of food, sometimes the timing, other times it is the preparation, and other cases based on the health of the person. I was never hungry on vegetarian diet but just don't like veggies. Carnivore / keto works for me. However with patients, must meet them in the middle. I can only recommend, they have to decide. It is the same with a medication or treatment. Provide full disclosure and let the patient decide what they want and what they can consistently follow based on their living situation, job, location, economic status, health,.....
@@herbbowler2461 why would I be against people being healthy? It is my job, career, and responsibility to help people with their journey to reach their health goals. Their goals.

I do hflc to keep my IBS in remission. Last year something strange happened and my gp thought I had cancer,I was also seeing a rheumatologist and got sort of a diagnosis of scardosis,started loosing weight and my ldl shot up. Doctors went nuts,I refused statins due to past experience...It was horrible as lymph nodes swelled up,got uveitis, and such.Then it all went away.Still doing hflc, and am beloe the magic number you stated ,so triglycerides are way down,LDL is still up but not quite as high. Anyway,I'm really curious to find out more info on lmhr and understand what's going on,so this was a wonderful program!
Not really sure what he is trying to prove... eating only 29 grams of carbs is not even close to what someone would be eating on a typical vegan diet... some of them are eating 500 grams or more.
i went meat based about 10 years ago. 55 now, take zero medications and every year i get faster, stronger and healthier(well, not according to every single doctor when they see my cholesterol)
I did it for a year. Same foods daily... romaine, arugula, avocado, black olives, hemp seed, nutritional yeast, with ACV/black olive juice/extra virgin olive oil/stevia dressing. Pecans, walnuts, pistachios, almonds, and macadamia nuts. Coconut cream (TJs), brain octane oil, bulletproof coffee. A few blueberries, strawberries, broccoli and cauliflower. I tested my blood for ketones and was usually around 2.3 mmol. Lost all of my extra weight and was full of energy, no issues.
Just having higher cholesterol in itself does not mean it's healthier. It doesn't mean your diets more nutritionally dense either. It's the ratio of your triglycerides to HDL and the size of the LDL particles that determines how healthy the cholesterol is. Did you actually listen to what he said? If you are overweight can you eat the same amount as a person who is normal weight your cholesterol will be lower. If you stay on the same diet and lose weight your cholesterol will go up
Westman is running out of content, so he's looking at these maniacs with anecdotal information and he's trying to dissect it like he's on the committee for a student defending their dissertation at an ivy league school. This is a bunch of bullshit. This is when RUclips influencers become old and stale and they're just doing it for whatever monetary value they can get from these lame videos....

I thought the comments were interesting because people were accusing him of lying
He was lying
@@SpikeFastingRacing prove he was lying. Just because his results don't fit your indoctrination doesn't mean they're false.
@@SpikeFastingRacing how do you know that? You just are vegan and don't like the results. Temper tantrum
@@SpikeFastingRacinghow? He laid out what he ate.

cholesterol is important. the high cholesterol is a sign of something else, body uses cholesterol as a building block to hormones and an antioxidant
Carnivore causes high cholesterol not good then
He is not saying cholesterol is bad. That is not the point of this video

I WAS 455 POUND VEGETARIAN AND ALWAYS STARVING TO DEATH ☠️ AND NOW I'M A 200 POUND CARNIVORE AND NEVER HUNGRY

Thank you dr Westman for giving us a second opinion
Thank you!
Not really sure what he is trying to prove... eating only 29 grams of carbs is not even close to what someone would be eating on a typical vegan diet... some of them are eating 500 grams or more.
Cool experiments.
i went meat based about 10 years ago. 55 now, take zero medications and every year i get faster, stronger and healthier(well, not according to every single doctor when they see my cholesterol)
I'm very low carb. Lots of leafy vegetables, nuts, dairy and various fish. Doesn't have to be carnivore.
Net carbs is the technically correct measurement. The carbs that aren't included are indigestible and therefore are irrelevant wrt serum glucose.
What essential nutrients cant be found from ethical sources?
Oh I though you were saying it got lower when it got worse. Higher is better.
Is the high ldl research taking new subjects?
Is vegan keto a thing? How?
Low carb no animal foods . Still in ketosis
I did it for a year. Same foods daily... romaine, arugula, avocado, black olives, hemp seed, nutritional yeast, with ACV/black olive juice/extra virgin olive oil/stevia dressing. Pecans, walnuts, pistachios, almonds, and macadamia nuts. Coconut cream (TJs), brain octane oil, bulletproof coffee. A few blueberries, strawberries, broccoli and cauliflower.

Eat a ton of avocados I guess 😂
@@leemanwrong tofu too
Is cholesterol trying to fix the damage veganism is doing?
Actually after one week are you going to get any reading that are any good? 🤔🙄
Dr westman nick said 21 grams of fiber not carbs
Fiber is a type of indigestible carbohydrate.
@lloydhlavac6807 I'm just saying what Dr Westman said. I know what fiber is. There is soluble and insoluble
Fibre is carbs.
Yes but maybe. This is the "accepted" model . But there is some evidence that it might do actually work that way in the body
If Vegan diet raises cholesterol then that’s good and it means it’s more nutrient dense.
You, and your cult are delusional. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
That is not the point of this video
He never says its bad or good
Just having higher cholesterol in itself does not mean it's healthier. It doesn't mean your diets more nutritionally dense either.

Great video nick!
Partical size
Ok, so n=1. Big deal!
Dave Feldman did similar. It is a big deal as the LEM has not been broken yet.
It disputes the plant based propaganda
