Peter reveals the single most important lever for extending healthspan and lifespan, and explains how he motivates midlife patients using the Centenarian Decathlon framework. He discusses the importance of addressing high apoB and cholesterol even in metabolically healthy individuals with calcium scores of zero, how to manage high blood pressure, and how to accurately evaluate metabolic health beyond HbA1c. Additional topics include time-restricted eating, practical considerations around ultra-processed foods, nuanced approaches to HRT for women and TRT for men, and why early and expanded screening for chronic disease—colonoscopy, PSA, coronary imaging, low-dose CT—can be lifesaving. He also offers insights into treating prediabetes, crafting exercise programs for those short on time, and safely incorporating high-intensity training in older adults.

I am honored to have Dr. Tom Dayspring join me again today for another AMA session. He and I have done eight podcasts before, and this is a continuation of our last Ask Me Anything episode.  Dr Dayspring is an esteemed expert on internal medicine and clinical lipidology. He is likely one of the most influential worldwide lipid experts, so I am thrilled to have him back with me to dive into various topics related to listener questions, including the impact of hormone replacement therapy on lipid changes, methods of administration, and why bioidentical hormone replacement therapy is preferable for managing both menopausal symptoms and lipid health. We discuss medications, including PCSK9 inhibitors and GLP-1s, as well as intermittent fasting, lipids, and cardiovascular disease risk. We also examine how heart disease develops gradually, over time, the impact of stress and lifestyle, and Dr. Dayspring shares the labs he recommends beyond traditional lipids, ApoB, and LpA. In our discussion, Dr. Dayspring noted that he was not in a position to speak about GLP-1 therapies or microdosing. Since I received many questions from listeners on those topics, I will host a future solo AMA to address some of their concerns. Today's conversation with Dr. Tom Dayspring is truly invaluable, and I trust you will walk away with valuable insights you can share with your healthcare providers. We created a PDF - cynthiathurlow.com/lipids -  specifically for listeners that outlines key labs to discuss with your providers and questions to ask them to help you advocate for your own health and your family members' health. IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: Why being physically fit does not always eliminate the risk of heart problems arising How ApoB and cholesterol contribute to heart disease over decades Why the early testing of risk factors is essential How chronic stress increases the risk of heart disease  How high cortisol affects insulin sensitivity and glucose regulation How stress impacts endothelial and nitric oxide function The link between low Omega-3 levels and heart problems How insulin resistance degrades heart health How high homocysteine levels can impair endothelial function and contribute to cardiovascular problems Connect with Cynthia Thurlow   Follow on⁠ X⁠,⁠ Instagram⁠ &⁠ LinkedIn⁠ Check out Cynthia's⁠ website⁠ Submit your questions to support@cynthiathurlow.com Join other like-minded women in a supportive, nurturing community ⁠(The Midlife Pause/Cynthia Thurlow⁠)⁠ ⁠ Cynthia's⁠ Menopause Gut Book⁠ is on presale now!

Blutwerte sind der Gesundheitskompass des Körpers. Jonas Köller erklärt, welche Werte wirklich zählen, warum das „große Blutbild“ überschätzt wird und wie du gefährliche Mängel früh erkennst. Von LDL über HbA1c bis Vitamin D: So liest du deinen Körper wie ein offenes Buch.

Heart attacks in people with “normal” cholesterol are not rare outliers. They're the warning flare that our entire playbook is broken. In this episode of Medical Disruptors, I sit down with interventional cardiologist-turned-functional cardiologist Dr. Sanjay Bhojraj to unpack what happens when you do everything “right” on paper… and still end up in the ER with a heart attack. We get into advanced lipid testing (ApoB, Lp(a), and small dense LDL) and how different LDL particle patterns can drive very different levels of plaque risk. We also break down how standard stress tests miss the very plaques that actually rupture, and why CTA and smarter labs are finally giving us a way to see real cardiovascular risk. Your labs, your lifestyle, your environment, and your nervous system all matter—and you deserve a plan that reflects that. Hit play and start upgrading how you think about your heart.

A long-term Framingham Heart Study analysis shows that regular physical activity beginning in midlife and continuing into older age significantly lowers the risk of dementia, including Alzheimer disease, with the most active individuals experiencing roughly 40–45% risk reduction. A phase 3 trial of the first oral PCSK9 inhibitor, enlicitide, demonstrated substantial LDL-C and apoB reductions in patients with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia already on statins, offering a well-tolerated oral option that helps most patients reach guideline targets. Finally, a large U.S. cohort study revealed persistent under-treatment of chronic hepatitis B—especially among women and non-Asian racial groups—highlighting the need for standardized assessment and timely antiviral therapy to close these gaps.

Dr. Erin Faules speaks with Dr. Damon Forbes about Lp(a), a genetically influenced lipoprotein linked to cardiovascular disease risk. They discuss how Lp(a) differs from LDL, its role in plaque and clotting, and why a one-time test can help clarify long-term risk. The conversation covers who to screen and when, interpreting Lp(a) alongside apoB and metabolic health, evidence-based ways to lower overall cardiovascular risk, and emerging Lp(a)-lowering therapies

The Truth About Cholesterol, LDL, and Plaque Regression with Dave Feldman | Lean Mass Hyper-Responder Research Explained What if everything you've been told about cholesterol and heart disease is incomplete — or even wrong? In this eye-opening episode of The Coach Debbie Potts Show, I sit down with Dave Feldman, engineer turned citizen scientist, founder of Own Your Labs and The Citizen Science Foundation, and the mind behind the Lean Mass Hyper-Responder (LMHR) study and the groundbreaking Keto-CTA trial on plaque progression and regression. We unpack the latest findings from Dave's multi-platform coronary imaging study — comparing HeartFlow, QAngio, Cleerly, and expert readouts — to explore how some individuals with very high LDL cholesterol and low inflammation show no increase in plaque and, in some cases, true regression. You'll learn:

I used to think of fiber as just “good for digestion,” but it turns out this single nutrient can lower cholesterol as powerfully as a statin—and do so much more for your brain, gut, and longevity.

I recently had an ApoB test and am surprised that it isn't lower than it is.  Can you explain?I have an ascending thoracic aortic aneurysm.  How can I keep it from enlarging?Why are you against whole-body scans? Aren't they helpful?Can I take magnesium L-threonate while also taking magnesium glycinate?

The Real Truth About Cholesterol, Heart Disease & Cardiovascular Health SUMMARY What if your cholesterol isn't trying to kill you—it's trying to protect you? In this solo deep-dive, Coach Debbie Potts breaks down the outdated cholesterol myths and reveals the root-cause truth behind cardiovascular disease. Drawing from the work of Dave Feldman, Dr. Ben Bikman, Dr. Paul Mason, Ivor Cummins, and Dr. William Davis, Debbie explains why heart disease is an inflammatory, metabolic, and endothelial problem—not a cholesterol problem. Learn which markers truly predict risk, how to interpret your labs beyond LDL, the role of genetics and epigenetics, and what it really takes to reverse plaque and rebuild a resilient metabolism. If you're ready to move beyond fear and finally understand your cardiovascular health through the lens of functional, ancestral, and root-cause medicine, this episode is your roadmap. KEY TAKEAWAYS LDL isn't "bad"—oxidized, inflamed LDL in a damaged arterial wall is. Heart disease = terrain dysfunction: insulin resistance, oxidative stress, mitochondrial damage, and loss of nitric oxide. ApoB + inflammation predict risk far better than total cholesterol. Context matters: High LDL in a low-inflammation, insulin-sensitive body ≠ the same risk as in a high-inflammation body. Saturated fat isn't the enemy; oxidized seed oils and sugar are. You can't out-supplement poor habits. Sleep, stress regulation, circadian alignment, and daily movement build vascular resilience. Plaque can stabilize or regress when you heal the root causes. The WHOLESTIC Method™ integrates nutrition, movement, sleep, stress, digestion, hydration, and happiness to rebuild your health from the inside out. TESTS & TOOLS MENTIONED - talk to your provider! ApoB (< 80 mg/dL optimal) LDL-P (< 1,000 nmol/L) Triglyceride : HDL ratio (< 1) hs-CRP (< 0.5 mg/L) Lp(a) (< 30 mg/dL) Fasting Insulin / HOMA-IR (< 5 µIU/mL / < 1.0) Coronary Artery Calcium (CAC) Score (0 = clean) CCTA / Cleerly AI Analysis for plaque composition Carotid IMT, Omega-3 Index, Homocysteine, Vitamin D + K2

Send us a textMost lab reports end with a shrug: “You're fine.” We think you deserve better than fine. This conversation is a practical guide to reading your blood work with confidence, using trends over time, and translating numbers into action you can stick with. Brent from Sage Healthspan joins us to unpack why “normal” ranges aren't the goal in a metabolically unwell population, how a closed-data AI can protect privacy while clarifying your results, and which overlooked biomarkers can change your prevention plan.We walk through the markers that move the needle. For cardiovascular risk, ApoB outperforms total cholesterol, while Lp(a) can reveal a genetic risk hidden in standard panels and point you toward a timely calcium score. Men should treat PSA as a low-friction lifesaver rather than an afterthought. Women deserve complete hormone panels, not piecemeal tests that miss the bigger picture. We also break down composite markers, ratios, and biological age as motivators—useful not as verdicts, but as guides to your next best step.The episode connects labs with real life. Sleep, training load, season, and environment all shape your biology. Wearables like Oura can inform when to push or pull back; vitamin D shifts with sunlight; fasting changes testosterone; and context matters as much as the number itself. We share how Sage ingests historical labs, normalizes units, explains biomarkers in plain English, and even drafts smart questions you can email to your doctor so every appointment counts. The aim is simple: lower friction, improve clarity, and build health agency that compounds over time.If you're ready to move from “okay” to optimal, tune in and learn how to centralize your data, fill panel gaps affordably, and make better daily choices backed by evidence.

Our guest, Hunter Ziesing shares his work with AI in assisting individuals in their quest for health and longevity.   Hunter spent the bulk of his career in investment banking focusing on the Healthcare, Consumer, and Technology areas. He was the founder of Charity of Choice, a non-profit focused on cancer research and health prevention. Early Overall Outcomes Biomarker Improvements A majority of patients showed significant movement in at least one critical biomarker (ApoB, VAT, bone density, VO2Max, HbA1c). ~80% improved at least one key biomarker. Common improvements included reductions in ApoB, decreases in visceral fat (VAT), and gains in lean mass/bone density. Major Findings from Diagnostics ~65% of patients had at least one significant finding from testing (e.g., early CAD on Cleerly, sleep apnea, insulin resistance, GI imbalances). These findings directly shaped interventions and escalations in care. Symptom Reversals ~30% experienced meaningful reversal of previously severe symptoms (e.g., hypertension control, prediabetes reversal, improved sleep apnea, reduction in chronic GI symptoms).

In this episode of Death Clock, Brent speaks with Dr. Nazish Sayed, a Stanford cardiologist and vascular biologist, to cut through the confusion about cholesterol, heart disease, and statins. Dr. Sayed breaks down what LDL, HDL, and ApoB really mean, why high cholesterol is more about your biology than your breakfast, and how inflammation and genetics drive plaque buildup long before symptoms appear. He explains how statins work and why their benefits far outweigh the risks for most people. It's an evidence-based exploration of one of medicine's most misunderstood topics. Hope you enjoy.

Send us a textCurious why coconut oil can raise LDL for some people yet still show up in diets that improve metabolic health, cognition, and body composition? We get clear on what coconut oil actually is—a family of saturated fats with a rare abundance of medium-chain triglycerides—and why MCTs create ketones that the brain and mitochondria can use even without fasting. Instead of stopping at cholesterol, we look at the fuller picture: insulin resistance, inflammation, triglycerides, and real-world outcomes that drive risk more than a single lab value.We dig into the differences between MCT oil, extra-virgin coconut oil, and refined coconut oil, and when each makes sense. We compare biomarkers to hard endpoints, explain why some populations with high coconut intake have low cardiovascular disease, and explore how diet context flips the script: in a high-sugar diet, lipids can look worse; in a lower-carb, whole-food pattern, markers of metabolic syndrome often improve even if LDL nudges up. Along the way, we share insights on cooking stability, oxidative stress, and the intriguing idea that latitude and season may influence how fats signal thermogenesis and photoprotection.You'll leave with practical takeaways you can use today: how to choose between MCTs and whole coconut oil, how to integrate them into a low-sugar, nutrient-dense diet, and which labs to track beyond LDL, like ApoB, triglyceride-to-HDL ratio, hs-CRP, and fasting insulin. If you've wondered whether coconut oil is a villain or a misunderstood ally, this conversation offers a grounded, outcome-focused way to decide what fits your body and your climate.Enjoyed the conversation?

When someone's LDL cholesterol hits 574 mg/dL, doctors typically expect the worst. But what if everything we think we know about cholesterol and heart disease risk is incomplete?In this episode, I sit down with researchers Nick Norwitz, Adrian Soto-Mota, and Dave Feldman to discuss their groundbreaking study on lean mass hyperresponders - a rare population who develop extremely high LDL cholesterol on ketogenic diets despite being lean, fit, and metabolically healthy. Their recent paper "Plaque Begets Plaque, ApoB Does Not" challenges conventional wisdom by showing that in this unique population, neither LDL cholesterol nor ApoB levels predicted plaque progression over one year of follow-up. Instead, existing plaque was the strongest predictor of future plaque growth. We explore the proposed lipid energy model that may explain why some people's cholesterol skyrockets on keto, discuss the limitations and implications of their findings, and examine what this means for personalized cardiovascular risk assessment. This conversation touches on fundamental questions about causality in medicine, the importance of studying outlier populations, and why a one-size-fits-all approach to cholesterol management may be missing crucial nuances.

Founder & CEO of Elevated Medical, Dr. Avinish Reddy, joins Matt today on this very special episode to discuss a comprehensive approach to longevity. One core theme presented is the profound interconnectedness of physical, mental, and cognitive well-being, essential for true health optimization. Dr. Reddy emphasizes the striking impact of social connection: isolation can increase early death risk by 50%, comparable to smoking. He believes fostering strong social bonds is a fundamental pillar of healthcare, akin to sleep's importance.The discussion highlights advanced diagnostics and actionable lifestyle strategies. Dr. Reddy advocates for precise cardiovascular risk assessment (apoB) and early metabolic dysfunction detection (fasting insulin/OGTT), with imaging (CT/CIMT) that visualizes arterial health proactively. As you will hear, prevention must begin decades before major health events, utilizing personalized data, and lifestyle is paramount - consistent movement, balanced nutrition, quality sleep, and stress management are vital for reversing conditions and fostering resilience.Please note that Matt is not a medical doctor, and none of the content in this podcast should be considered medical advice in any way, shape, or form, nor prescriptive in any way.As a huge supporter of mission-driven companies, Matt recommends new partner Branch Basics.

Send us a textOverview and alternative interpretation to the mainstream view on how dietary fat and cholesterol relate to cardiovascular disease.Episode Summary: Tucker Goodrich is an engineer by training who has become a prominent independent researcher and blogger on nutrition and metabolic health, focusing on the harms of seed oils and polyunsaturated fats.About the guest: Nick Jikomes and Tucker Goodrich explore atherosclerosis and heart disease, critiquing the standard model that blames high LDL cholesterol while highlighting how oxidized LDL—driven by dietary linoleic acid from seed oils—plays a key role in plaque formation and inflammation; they discuss historical shifts in heart disease rates, genetic factors like familial hypercholesterolemia, the limitations of animal studies, and why reducing seed oil intake could prevent issues more effectively than just lowering cholesterol.Discussion Points:Atherosclerosis involves plaque buildup in arteries, often leading to heart attacks, but plaques contain oxidized fats and cholesterol, not just native cholesterol.Dietary cholesterol has little impact on blood levels or heart disease in humans, unlike in rabbits used in many studies.High LDL may not be inherently bad; oxidized LDL from polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) like linoleic acid causes macrophages to overeat and form harmful foam cells.Familial hypercholesterolemia patients only show higher heart disease rates in modern, industrial diets high in seed oils, not historically.Populations like the Kitavans and Tsimané have high apoB but no heart disease on traditional diets low in industrial foods.Fried foods are oxidized seed oils, explaining why they're unhealthy despite omega-6 fats being labeled "heart-healthy."Omega-3 fats can displace omega-6 in cells, reducing oxidation risk.Reference Papers:Witztum & Steinberg (1991)Boren et al. (2022)Related episode:Support the showAffiliates: Seed Oil Scout: Find restaurants with seed oil-free options, scan food products to see what they're hiding, with this easy-to-use mobile app. AquaTru: Reverse osmosis water filters.

Send us a textWe often hear about heart disease prevention, but stroke—a condition nearly as common and often more disabling—gets far less attention. In this episode, Dr. Bobby is joined by cardiologist Dr. Anthony Pearson to uncover what science really says about stroke prevention, the distinct types of strokes, and what practical steps you can take today to lower your risk.Together, they explore the two major types of stroke—ischemic and hemorrhagic—and explain why strokes caused by clots or vessel rupture can have very different causes and consequences. The data shows nearly 800,000 Americans experience strokes annually, and about half of survivors live with long-term disability (CDC; NIH). Yet most of us are unaware of the modifiable risk factors that account for up to 90% of stroke risk (INTERSTROKE Study).Dr. Pearson emphasizes the number one culprit: high blood pressure. It triples individual risk and contributes to half of all strokes, with randomized trials like SPRINT showing that aggressive control reduces both stroke and mortality (SPRINT Study). Both doctors also discuss physical activity—while Dr. Bobby cites strong associations between exercise and reduced stroke risk (BMJ Review), Dr. Pearson cautions that current evidence is largely observational and inconclusive.They also explore the role of lipid levels, citing that high ApoB or LDL may increase risk in strokes caused by carotid atherosclerosis, but not necessarily in cardioembolic strokes. Dietary improvements, particularly following a Mediterranean-style diet, have shown benefits, including reduced stroke risk in randomized trials like PREDIMED.Beyond traditional risk factors, they also explore loneliness as a newer area of concern. A recent study linked persistent loneliness in adults over 50 to a 50% increased stroke risk (Lancet eClinicalMedicine), highlighting the complex social and behavioral factors at play.Dr. Pearson discusses atrial fibrillation (AFib) and why it's a key cause of cardioembolic strokes—especially relevant given that wearables like Apple Watch now help detect AFib early. They also touch on controversial screening approaches, warning against routine carotid ultrasounds and unwarranted treatment of asymptomatic brain aneurysms.Importantly, Dr. Bobby highlights the signs of stroke—sudden weakness, numbness, speech difficulties, or confusion—and urges immediate ER visits to enable timely treatment like thrombolysis, ideally within four hours of symptom onset.As always, they wrap by challenging popular myths. Dr. Pearson explains why aspirin, once widely promoted for primary prevention, is no longer recommended due to increased bleeding risk, especially into the brain. He also debunks the idea that supplements like fish oil or B vitamins help prevent strokes, noting no benefit in recent large trials.Takeaways:Know your blood pressure and cholesterol levels—and treat them if needed. These remain the top modifiable risks for stroke.Prioritize physical activity, even if trial data is imperfect—it benefits vascular health broadly and may reduce stroke risk.Stay socially connected: chronic loneliness has emerging links to stroke risk, highlighting that prevention isn't just physical—it's relational.To continue learning how to live long and well, visit drbobbylivelongandwell.com.

Welcome back to our weekend Cabral HouseCall shows! This is where we answer our community's wellness, weight loss, and anti-aging questions to help people get back on track! Check out today's questions:    Trish: Hi Dr. Cabral - I'm a 55-year-old female working on lowering overall inflammation in my body. My CRP levels are (4.1), ApoB (118 nmol/L and Lipoprotein (A) (281 nmol/L) as you can see are high. Total Cholesterol 221 and Triglycerides are 70. I have a lot of stiffness with joint discomfort. I started taking 2 Proteolytic Enzymes upon waking. Then your DNS, D3/k2, Cell Boost, Inflamma Soothe, Collagen with GLP Tone System and some of your other products (eye and hair). I follow your Med diet. My pain and stiffness have improved ALOT in a matter of days. I'm going to retest my CRP and chol levels in 4 months. My question is how long can I take Proteolytic Enzymes and in your opinion am I taking the proper protocol for these issues? I'm retesting in 4 mos. Thank you in advance          Sheena: Hi Dr Cabral! Hope you and all of your health family are well. I'm a surgical Processor and on my feet all day. I've tried all kinds of compression socks but by the end of the day, after taking it off, my leg are soo itchy! I scratch it sometimes so bad it starts to bleed. I'm only wearing the average 15-20 mmHG so its not too tight. I'm curious if you have a recommendation for compression socks that wont causes itching but is effective? Thanks in advance for answering!      Christina: Stephen, I have listened on one of your podcasts about Rheumatoid Arthritis and detoxing. My mother is in her early 70s and her fingers are twisting. I am 48 and recently the base of my thumbs have started bothering me. My question is, what detox protocol should my mother start with to prevent further twisting of her fingers and what detox protocol should I do to prevent this from happening to me? I would love to do the heavy metals and organic acid tests, but unfortunately I live in NY. Would my functional medicine doctor be able to order them for me? I have had HELLP, HUS, DIC, Guillian Barre, and Pulminary Edema in my pregnancy at 21. My son was delivered with no issues! At this time, we learned that I have ITTP. I have had IBS issues. Thank you, Christina                      Ryan: Hi dr cabral, Im a 29 year old male who has addisons disease, chronic post nasal drip, food intolerance's and teeth grinding a stool test confirmed klebsiella pneumonie overgrowth and blastocystis hominis as well as some yeast and fungus with no Bifidobacteria and Lactobacillus detected, I recently started the cbo protocol with citricidal drops im 7 days in untill i came across one of your videos where you mentioned you should go for the parasite first should i stop the cbo protocol and start the para support protocol and then continue the cbo after or just continue the cbo protocol Thank you for your time wishing you all the best ryan.                                                                                                                                     Kay: Hi Dr. Cabral, I I love your podcasts and look forward to them every week. Anyway, I was wondering if you could please explain how a traumatic event could spur the onset of a "dis-ease" such as asthma. My daughter's asthma began shortly after her father and I were separated and he moved out of state. According to her pediatrician at the time, she was "more prone to having asthma because she also had eczema." This was 2 decades ago, and now she's 31 and we know more about autoimmune issues. Although she continues to carry an inhaler with her, she hardly needs to use it anymore. What would you recommend for a more root cause approach to someone with her condition? Thank you.                                  Thank you for tuning into today's Cabral HouseCall and be sure to check back tomorrow where we answer more of our community's questions!    - - - Show Notes and Resources: StephenCabral.com/3466 - - - Get a FREE Copy of Dr. Cabral's Book: The Rain Barrel Effect - - - Join the Community & Get Your Questions Answered: CabralSupportGroup.com - - - Dr. Cabral's Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > Complete Minerals & Metals Test (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > Complete Candida, Metabolic & Vitamins Test (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > Complete Stress, Mood & Metabolism Test (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > Complete Food Sensitivity Test (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > Complete Omega-3 & Inflammation Test (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels) - - - Get Your Question Answered On An Upcoming HouseCall: StephenCabral.com/askcabral - - - Would You Take 30 Seconds To Rate & Review The Cabral Concept?

Send us a textMost people say they want to live longer. Fewer stop to ask: what does “longer” actually feel like?In this follow-up to last week's conversation, Dr. Matt Kaeberlein sits down again with Dr. Nicki Byrne and Dr. Kevin White — this time for an especially detailed, behind-the-scenes deep dive into the blood work and biomarkers that actually matter for health span.If you've ever wanted to understand labs like ApoB, LP(a), fasting insulin, ferritin, hormone panels, or genetic testing — and how to interpret them like a longevity doc — this one's for you. The team walks through what they measure, what it means, and how they guide real-world decisions using data most doctors never mention.Whether you're a patient, a clinician, or just tired of biohacking buzzwords, this episode is packed with nuance, context, and clarity — so you can finally make sense of what your labs are telling you (and what to do next).

The idea that saturated fat might be harmful to our health has sparked controversy for decades. In recent years, counter-narratives have surged: suggesting that concerns over saturated fat were overblown, that LDL cholesterol doesn't matter, or that the original diet-heart hypothesis has been debunked. These claims have become especially popular in online wellness spaces and certain dietary communities, often wrapped in compelling but misleading rhetoric. So what does the best available evidence actually say? And how should we think about saturated fat, LDL cholesterol, and cardiovascular risk in the current day? In this wide-ranging interview, originally recorded for the Chasing Clarity podcast, Alan and Danny explore the scientific consensus around saturated fat's impact on blood lipids, why LDL and apoB are central to atherosclerotic disease, and how dietary patterns can meaningfully reduce risk. Importantly, they also address some of the most persistent myths and half-truths that fuel confusion, from flawed interpretations of the Seven Countries Study to misrepresentations of newer meta-analyses.

Story at-a-glance Cholesterol is essential for hormone production, brain function, and cell health, and about 80% of it is made by your body — not consumed in food. High triglycerides, not total cholesterol, pose a stronger risk for heart attack — raising risk by 80% — making triglyceride-to-HDL ratio a better heart disease predictor Newer science shows chronic inflammation — not LDL alone — may be the real cause of plaque buildup in arteries, shifting focus to markers like ApoB and CRP Natural options like garlic, artichoke, bergamot, plant sterols, green tea, and oats have been shown in clinical studies to lower LDL cholesterol and improve heart markers Red yeast rice can lower LDL by up to 33%, but it contains a statin-like compound with the same side effects and potential kidney toxins like citrinin Lifestyle changes like cutting sugar, walking daily, and sleeping well can activate the Pareto Principle — where 20% of effort yields 80% of results in lowering cholesterol. Exercise improves five key metabolic biomarkers — glucose, HDL, triglycerides, blood pressure, and waist size — each linked to long-term cardiovascular health

My guest is Dr. Mark Hyman, M.D., a physician and world leader in the field of functional medicine. We discuss a systems-based framework for diagnosing and treating the root causes of disease, rather than simply managing symptoms. We also cover cutting-edge health and longevity tools such as peptides, NAD/NMN, exosomes, proactive blood testing and cancer screening, as well as nutrition, supplementation, detoxification, and strategies for addressing specific diseases and health challenges. This discussion will benefit anyone seeking to improve their vitality or combat specific health concerns. Read the episode show notes at hubermanlab.com.
