    Dr. Klaper, I have the upmost respect for you and your work. Thank you for an informative video. I am one of those who have not been able to get my cholesterol below 200. My LDL stays high. A couple of years ago, I had my carotid arteries checked, and they were normal, so I convinced my doctor to give me a chance to clean up my diet and do another blood test in a few months. He told me, I can eat fruits and vegetables until I'm blue in the face, it wouldn't help. He said, I needed to take statins. Anyway, I did manage to get my cholesterol down enough points to stay off statins. But lately, although, I am 61 years old, an avid runner and I have eaten a vegan diet for awhile, my cholesterol remains high. I was really puzzled. So, one day, I sat down and wrote down everything I ate. Turns out, my diet wasn't as great as I thought. I had a lot of added oils in my meals, processed junk, and added sugars. I already knew to stop drinking smoothies, because they raised my triglycerides, so I only eat whole fruits and my last blood work showed normal triglycerides. Now, I am eating a lot of vegetables, whole fruits, oats, potatoes and sweet potatoes with greens and beans. Mainly, I added beans, because I am also anemic. Anyway, I retest in a couple of months and I hope my blood work is much better. But, as long as I continue to eat as clean as am now, whole plant-based with no oils, nuts, seeds, added salt or sugars, and I continue my daily exercise, I should be fine like you mentioned in this video. Peace.

      You need to get your Doctor to give you the APO-E-Gene test so that you know for sure what #Gene you have so that you know what to eat and not to eat. Without that knowledge, everything is just a guessing game, which can cost us our lives while playing the experiment game.

I also walk, laugh and smile a lot, control stress, and all the other suggested ideas for a healthy person. Yet my cholesterol and triglycerides results remain elevated. I refused statins. My new MD is newly practicing plant-based, nutritional prevention and quite confused over my results. Since I follow the prescription, I'll just keep doing so and ask my doc to stop measuring the cholesterol. I'll share this video with him and ask if we ought to measure the inflammatory markers instead. Thank you again for this video.

I refused, and will continue to refine and improve my plant-based diet on a daily basis - and continue with vigorous exercise. Those Numbers Needed to Treat with statins should be better known by the general public.

    Amazing presentation! I was on a non-statin drug for years because my cholesterol kept hovering between 210 and 230. The women in my family tend to get higher cholesterol after menopause--even those who are not overweight. When I transitioned to a plant-based diet, my cholesterol dropped to 198 and has stayed there. My internist is happy with that--the non-statin I was taking started to affect my muscles the way statins would, so I need to avoid these medications. I still have more weight to lose, so I am hopeful my cholesterol will drop more. Thank you!

    Before i start on Dr Esselstyn's diet my LDL at the highest was 396 even though I was on the statin and cholesterol absorption medication. After my bypass surgery, I follow strictly Dr Esselstyn's diet but I still continue with my statin and cholesterol absorption medication. My LDL is now 56. Diet definitely is more effective and powerful than medications. I didn't stopped the medications as I am on the very high risk group and also Dr Esselstyn is not totally against medications.

    THANK YOU Dr. Klaper!!! I have been really worried for the last five months about a blood test which showed a higher LDL cholesterol number than 3 months before but stable HDL. I started eating whole food plant=based diet about five months before the latest blood test and stopped taking statins. The doc insisted I go back on them and maxed the dose. I bargained with her to give me 3 months before I go back on statins as I could not think of how I could be eating any better. I am no SOS and no nuts and keep seeds (flaxseed and hemp) to a healthy minimum. I feel great eating this way and not tired like I used to feel. My diabetes is now under control.
    I was still puzzled , upset by the numbers (and quite worried) UNTIL I watched this video. THANK YOU SO MUCH!

    I recall in Dr. Esselstyn's book "Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease" an emphasis on cholesterol level of 150 mg/dl or lower (or LDL of 80 mg/dl or lower), so it was awesome that Dr. Klaper here went into detail about how a high cholesterol level may not be an indication of arterial damage. Great stuff. I'm going to file this one right along side my much treasured copy of "Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease".

    Since beginning WFPB June 11, my total cholesterol is now normal. My triglycerides Nov 23 is 169 which increased sun prior test Sept 2 (151). What’s concerning is the CRP which was run for the first time Seot 2 was 1.8 and 2.7 Nov 23. I was using a teaspoon of agave for my oatmeal but have since stopped. I am 95% WFPB compliant. What can use suggest to lower Triglycerides and CRP? Thank you.

    Dr. Klaper can you speak on FH. Some of us who have it and already are whole food plant based with extremely high LDLs and total cholesterol over 300 from a familial genetic disfunction? Is our own LDL as damaging as animal foods that we aren't consuming?

  • @Dostav

    Don't carbohydrates damage arteries too? Yes, I think oxidized foods do damage, but can you really remove sugars from this picture? There is really no evidence to distinguish what makes the most damage, and what damage can't be more easily fixed. Overall it's just another association of oxidized foods to atherosclerosis.

    I have been vegetarian for over 45 years and am now pre diabetic. I believe this is because I have eaten too many carbs over the years. My cholesterol has always been high. Recently I have been eating low carb high fat and my blood sugar has finally gone down a bit though my cholesterol has gone up!! Ive decided to concentrate on my blood sugar and not worry about cholesterol. I only eat strawberries and blue berries and no grains, or other fruit at all. Its quite a complicated picture and we all seem to have different ideas on diet

  • @dvdmon
    @dvdmon 3 года назад +1

    While I don't disagree that eating an anti-inflammatory diet is ONE of the keys to success visa vis arterial health, so is smoking, stress reduction, sleep, relationships, etc. I think that one of the big things you completely ignore about statins is that they are ALSO anti-inflammatory, AND they stabilize plaque. Are they warranted for everyone? No. If someone has few risk factors other than high cholesterol and manages to get their numbers down with lifestyle modifications, and has never had a heart attack, stent, or bypass, then sure, statins can be removed once the cholesterol is down and HS-CRP is as well. But for those who've had heart attacks, stents/bypasses, the data clearly show that getting LDL down as low as possible is key to removing risk for secondary events. LDL of 30 or less is needed to reduce that risk factor, and that cannot be done with diet alone. I've never seen anyone with an LDL under 50 even without SOME medication. I appreciate that this video is probably targeted mostly at those who haven't had events yet, but I think your basically blanket statement around statins being something to avoid is dangerous for a large subset of people for whom they (or other cholesterol-lowering medication) could be life-saving/prologing. Your disclaimer at the VERY end of this video about those with genetic FH maybe requiring some consultation with a doctor (never mentioning these people actually DO need to be on medication), is way too little too late and may not caught by many. These disclaimers/exceptions should be mentioned throughout your video so that people know you aren't saying that everyone can just go off their meds as soon as their cholesterol numbers are "around" the targets set for the general population.

    Hi Dr. Klaper- what's your position on consuming nuts,seeds and avocado, all, of course, in very moderate amounts. Although Dr. Esselstyn completely disapproves of eating them if CAD is present, there are many other respected medical folks who believe those foods are necessary, including Drs. Greger, Ornish, Furman, Sinatra, and more.Thanks!

  • @ronaldtan2543

    Thank you very much ! Dr Klaper. LDL Cholesterol is not the issue, in fact, it is important to have LDL. We need LDL also to remove the plague. Statins is a no no. I agree nutrition is critical to health. Dr Michael Van said likewise. I also like to thank Dr Van.

    Bravo for a marvelous video! New subscriber here! I am one of those who cannot seem to drive down my Total and LDL numbers, hovering around 149 for LDL. CRP is always good, however, I don’t know what other numbers to monitor for inflammation? Can you tell us by name, which labs to monitored? I follow Dr. Essestyn’s diet (since June 2018) religiously, including cooked greens 6 times per day ( BMI started at 24 - now 19). No processed foods, no oils, and cook at home 95% of meals. I take 10 mg Zetia due to muscle aches from statins, but cardiologist continues to push statins or the expensive injections, which I’ve declined. Zetia seemed to make a six point difference, whereas diet did the heavy lifting to get me in the near normal range. Thank you so much for this new venue for information. Very valuable!

    Thanks Dr. Klaper. Appreciate the details about the inflammatory markers. I've been following this type of diet for 7 years now after being diagnosed with CAD. And have had these tests done with good results all around. In seeking out all the ways to aid in reversal of CAD (removal of plaque) I've heard Dr. William Davis (cardiologist) extoll the virtues of not eating wheat, in addition to removing processed oils and simple carbs, as a key means to remove plaque as measure by the calcium score. It also, in his opinion, removes the small dense LDLs. If you've looked at this issue would like you thoughts. Thanks

    I agree with your description of inflammation as the root cause of atherosclerosis. However, can you cite a peer reviewed paper or other evidence that demonstrates that cooked animal protein, especially salmon, (not grilled on an open flame) increases oxidized LDL? I am not aware of any evidence that such animal protein is a causative agent for atherosclerosis. Just the opposite. Also what is the evidence that healthy oils and foods with high monounsaturated fats increase oxidized LDL (ie olive oil and avocados)? I believe these foods to be cardioprotective. I agree with you that processed vegetable oils are culprits in causing inflammation in the arterial walls.
    Here is a peer reviewed journal article supporting my argument about salmon:

      All oils are very processed by definition because protein, carbs have been removed and fiber + water containing most nutrients too, leaving 100% lipid with only few essentil fatty acids and vitamin E and K...similar to free sugar and protein powder but worse because it is much more calories dense and the fat you eat if the fat you wear.
