Podcasts about Cholesterol

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Rupy Aujla, an NHS GP and the founder of The Doctor's Kitchen, an app that includes doctor-approved recipes to cook at home. In this conversation, we dive into why cardiovascular disease remains the #1 killer worldwide, the connection between cholesterol and heart health, how fiber acts as a “magical nutrient” for the body, how to introduce it into your daily meals, and the role of lifestyle choices in preventing illness and supporting long-term brain and heart health. *** About Dr. Rupy Aujla: After suffering a significant heart condition, he dove deep into the science of nutritional medicine and was able to reverse his condition through food and lifestyle. In 2015, he launched The Doctor's Kitchen as a way to teach people how to cook their way to better health and to showcase the medicinal effects of eating well. The incredible “Doctor's Kitchen” cooking app has over 1000 delicious, science-backed recipes and 20 brand new ones added each month. There's also a handy meal planner that will personalise recipes based on your preferences. It actually suggested a delicious looking salmon poached in harissa coconut sauce, and  olive and date braised chicken, which suit my personal dietary needs and all sound great. You can download and use the app completely for free using this link. *** Subscribe to The Neuro Experience for more conversations at the intersection of brain science and performance.

Have you ever looked at your lab results and thought… wait, what does that even mean? Well, you're in luck because in today's episode, we're diving into some major truths about cholesterol, blood pressure, and why your lab results might not be telling you the full story. Maria and Dr. Allison are back (outside, of course!), and breaking down what your body is really trying to say through those “off” numbers, and why the default answer doesn't always need to be a statin. We talk about how sunlight, circadian rhythm, and even your lighting at work can drastically affect your health, your hormones, your cholesterol levels, and your entire nervous system. This conversation is about learning to read your body's signals differently and realizing that your environment might be the thing holding your healing back. We share simple, powerful ways to shift that, without needing to overhaul your life. Let's clear the noise, tune in to the body, and take our power back… one sunrise at a time!  -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy's Page: Shop My Macy's Storefront Prenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 off EMR-Tek Red Light: https://emr-tek.com/discount/Maria30 for 30% off Airbnb: https://www.airbnb.com/  Join the In-Person Heal Waitlist: https://mariamenounos.myflodesk.com/heal-retreat-waitlist HEADLINES & RESOURCES: https://x.com/valerieanne1970/status/1937042212472193461?s=48&t=X9m9bZdA4Wv4EPEUZZKZrg  https://www.instagram.com/p/DL4r12EsNIO/?hl=en  ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos' passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

It's no secret in 2025 that stronger muscles lead to longer life. If you're a woman in perimenopause, postmenopause or anything in between, this is no surprise to you. I think we are very aware of it, but let's unpack how weight lifting treats and prevents chronic diseases. Women, at any age, need stronger muscles for a longer life. Not just for aesthetics, but for functionality and independence.   My Guest: A longtime Vanity Fair contributing editor, Michael Joseph Gross has published investigative reporting, essays, and books about culture, technology, politics, religion, and business. He was raised in rural Illinois and lives in New York City.   Questions We Answer in This Episode: [00:04:31] How did this become a topic of interest to you personally?  [00:07:54] Let's connect strength training to prevention and treatment of illnesses often associated - even accepted - with aging? [00:20:17] Weight training has been shown to decrease anxiety and to have positive effects on risk of Alzheimer's or type 3 diabetes, can you explain for the listeners?  [00:26:31] How has the work of Dr. Maria Fiatarone Singh showed that weight training may reduce the risk of Alzheimer's? [00:33:13] Why is lifting heavy important? Do you worry that leading with “lift heavy” intimidates women? What did you uncover as evidence that it is never too late to start progressive strength training?   Why Strength Training? Strength training changes more than just your body—it's internal too. It's not about looking stronger—it's about being stronger. Adolescence and menopause are both times when women feel their bodies are changing without their consent. Strength training gives back a sense of control, capability, and power.   Stronger Muscles Longer Life At Any Age   Strong Youth: Peak bone mass forms in youth—strength training in adolescence builds lifelong health. A 10% increase in bone mass reduces future fracture risk by more than 50%.   Strong in Midlife: Dr. Maria Fiatarone Singh, geriatrician and professor in Sydney, Australia, found that even 90+ year-olds can gain muscle mass with high-intensity training. Weight training can treat and prevent nearly all chronic diseases.   Stronger Muscles Through Weight Lifting Treats and Prevents These Diseases: Type 2 Diabetes Heart Disease Osteoporosis Depression and Anxiety Insomnia Osteoarthritis Frailty Dementia & Alzheimer's Blood Pressure and Cholesterol Fall Risk   Periodization & Smart Strength Training: Periodization: Cycles of high effort, deloading, and rest. Women (especially Type A) tend to push too hard—leading to burnout or injury. Strength training should energize you, not exhaust you. Part of lifting heavy is lifting light. The goal: Live better, not just lift more.   Ancient Greek Lesson: The Right Time to Train Greek word kairos = the “opportune moment” for action. Good training is about doing the right thing at the right time. Don't blindly follow a plan. Train for your body today.   Connect with Michael: Michael's Website Twitter - DuttonBooks   Other Episodes You Might Like: Previous Episode - 5 Things I Would Do If I Were Tired All the Time  More Like This - What's Best Total Body or Split Routine in Menopause   Resources: Tune in to the upcoming Flipping 50 Masterclass.

Science correspondent Allan Blackman joins Kathryn to discuss how a 15-year-old study claiming that a microorganism can thrive on the toxic element arsenic has been retracted by the journal Science - why did chemists and biologists have their concerns about it? A new study turns claims of eggs' effect on cholesterol on its head and a start-up energy company Marathon Fusion claims it can turn an isotope of mercury into gold, while creating clean energy via nuclear fusion... Allan Blackman is a Professor of Chemistry, School of Science, Auckland University of Technology.

This week on Good Day Health, host Doug Stephan teams up with Dr. Ken Kronhaus of Lake Cardiology ((352) 735-1400) to break down the latest in health and medical news. First up, encouraging new research shows that eating two whole eggs a day — with a low saturated fat diet — may actually improve LDL (bad) cholesterol. They also discuss the importance of consistent sleep schedules and how catching up on missed sleep over the weekend may still benefit heart health.Other hot topics: how co-sleeping with pets affects sleep quality, the impact of early smartphone use on mental health, the surprising link between insomnia and ADHD, and the cognitive fallout of pandemic-related stress.Plus, an incredible discovery: dogs trained to detect Parkinson's and a breakthrough brain circuit that could change how we manage chronic pain conditions like fibromyalgia and PTSD.Website: GoodDayHealthrShow.com Social Media: @GoodDayNetworks

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:    Ann: Hi Dr. Cabral- everyone out here SO appreciates all you do :) You have mentioned that there is a difference between an IGG reaction to a food and a digestive issue that would cause bloating and gas etc. Could you explain how you can tell if you are having an IGG reaction? I used to think that the bloat was the reaction. The 3 foods I am moderately sensitive to based on my Food Sensitivity test have never given me OVERT symptoms , so I'm wondering how to tell if these or any food combos are giving me inflammation without telltale rash, swelling etc. Im 61 and don't have any pressing health issues so healthspan is my focus right now and I don't want to be eating anything that may be causing me hidden inflammation. Thank you again :)                                                                                                                                                       Kavita: Hello Dr. Cabral, Thank you for your incredible work! I have successfully reversed many of my health issues thanks to your guidance and support. I recently received my test results, and I am pleased to report that they look fantastic overall. However, my cholesterol levels are on the higher side. What recommendations do you have for addressing this? I  walk frequently and work out three to four times a week, including strength training. I am currently focused on my weight, aiming to reach 170 pounds; I weigh 191 pounds at the moment. Additionally, I have been struggling with migraines for most of my life, and I recently started seeing a chiropractor in hopes that this will help alleviate my symptoms. I would greatly appreciate any advice.                                                                                                           David: Hi Dr.Cabral, Really appreciate everything you do and I can't stress enough how much of a positive impact you have had on my life and many of those around me as a result of being the health coach in my home. I've been revisiting my personal protocol to optimize for my genes even more than I do and boy is it a confusing area. Specifically, I am trying to balance MTHFR and COMT. After speaking with a methylation focused nutritionist, she recommended that I switch my DNS to beef liver and beef organ supplements (about 4-5 caps of each) I have taken Equi Life's organ complex and generally tolerated it well, but was wondering if there is a time and place (such as having my genotype) where using a whole food based multi makes sense and is better than synthetic multi-vitamins?                                                                                John: Hey dr I asked you a question on 3410 but you misread the question I wanted to know if I should stop all my supplements when I'm on the heavy metal detox not the regular detox . Just want to make sure the heavy metal doesn't cancel out everything thanks                                                                                                                                                                Tammy: As a healthcare worker, I am seeing an increase in patients with lymphedema, where the calf and ankle areas are very swollen and many times gets blistering sores and veins issues What are your recommendations for lymphedema and venous problems?       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/3459 - - - 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?

This podcast summarizes the 4 major cellular uses of cholesterol, its biosynthesis, and the regulation of the rate-limiting enzyme HMG CoA reductase by intracellular cholesterol.The podcast further describes the biochemical mechanism involved in the reduction of plasma cholesterol by statin treatment. Ultimately, statins reduce cholesterol synthesis in the liver, which in turn results in the increased gene expression of the LDL receptor in the liver. Consequently, the increased number of LDL receptors on hepatocyte cell surface increases the uptake of LDL from plasma, thus reducing plasma cholesterol. This biochemistry content may be useful to premedical and medical students.

Hormone imbalance signs are often very easy to detect, just by looking in the mirror!The thyroid gland is small but controls your digestive system and metabolism. If your thyroid hormones are too high, you may notice bulging eyes, a fast metabolism, significant weight loss, and excessive sweating.A hypothyroid will cause weight gain and hair loss. Around 90% of hypothyroidism is an issue related to the immune system called Hashimoto's. If you have Hashimoto's, you'll want to avoid gluten and increase selenium and vitamin D3. Androgens include testosterone and DHT. High levels of androgens can cause acne, specifically around the jawline and on the back. Women may experience a deepened voice, increased facial hair, and may also notice hair thinning. Men with high androgens may experience balding.To keep your androgen levels normal, avoid carbohydrates, sugar, and starches, and avoid frequent eating. Also, use a high-quality water filter to avoid plastics.High cortisol symptoms include a round face (cortisol face), buffalo hump, and weight gain in the midsection. High cortisol can exaggerate stretch marks in women and speed up aging.High estrogen symptoms include a puffy face, spider veins, skin tags, and melasma. Low estrogen can make you appear older and cause wrinkles. Cholesterol is vital for estrogen production, so certain drugs and low-fat diets could cause your estrogen levels to decrease. When growth hormone declines, you may look older and gain weight in the midsection. Intense exercise for short durations, a low-carb diet, and more sleep can increase growth hormone. High progesterone is rare but can cause fluid retention. Low progesterone is much more common and can cause a puffy face. You might also appear dull and tired, and may experience acne. High insulin symptoms include belly fat, skin tags, and swollen eyes. Low insulin can cause excessive weight loss, cravings for carbs, and constant hunger. Sugar, starch, and frequent eating trigger insulin.Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio:Dr. Berg, age 60, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting. He is the Director of Dr. Berg Nutritionals and author of the best-selling book The Healthy Keto Plan. He no longer practices, but focuses on health education through social media.

In this powerful episode, I sit down with Dr. Jeremy London—a board-certified cardiothoracic surgeon with over 26 years of experience—to uncover the often-overlooked truths about cardiovascular disease, especially in women.

BUFFALO, NY – July 22, 2025 – A new #research paper was #published in Volume 16 of Oncotarget on July 21, 2025, titled “Statins exhibit anti-tumor potential by modulating Wnt/β-catenin signaling in colorectal cancer.” In this work, led by first author Sneha Tripathi from the Indian Institute of Science Education and Research and corresponding author Sanjeev Galande from the Center of Excellence in Epigenetics at Shiv Nadar University, researchers discovered that statins, widely used to lower cholesterol, may also suppress colorectal cancer growth. This finding highlights a potential new role for these common drugs in cancer prevention and therapy. Colorectal cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths worldwide, and new strategies are urgently needed to improve treatment results. Statins, originally developed to lower cholesterol levels, have gained attention for their possible anti-cancer properties. The study investigated how statins affect the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, a critical driver in colorectal cancer development and progression. The researchers discovered that statins disrupt the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, leading to lower levels of tumor-promoting proteins and to cancer-suppressing cellular behaviors. Experiments in both colorectal cell cultures and mouse models confirmed that statins reduced tumor growth without causing noticeable side effects. This study further revealed that statins downregulate SATB1, a protein linked to aggressive tumor behavior, while increasing SATB2, a protein with tumor-suppressing effects. These changes made the cancer cells less able to grow and spread. “This reciprocal regulation shifts cellular phenotypes between epithelial and mesenchymal states in 3D spheroid models.” Overall, the findings suggest that statins could be repurposed to complement existing colorectal cancer treatments or even be used in preventive strategies for high-risk individuals. By targeting the molecular machinery that drives colorectal tumor development, statins offer a promising, accessible, and well-understood option for further research in cancer therapy. This research opens the door to larger clinical studies to explore how best to integrate statins into cancer care. If successful, this approach could provide a cost-effective strategy for reducing the global burden of colorectal cancer, which remains a significant health challenge.

This week, Dr. Prather gives a preview of his upcoming free seminar about the Holistic Heart program at Holistic Integration.  In this episode, we talk about:—The philosophy behind Holistic Heart and how it integrates Structure-Function Care and the medical model for the best patient outcomes.—How our Holistic Heart program is designed to give our patients safe, non-invasive, and medically-sound cardiac care that is more than just stents and statins. —The unique diagnostic tests Dr. Prather orders for patients that most cardiologists do not do. —The shocking study from the National Institutes of Health study that revealed stents and bypass surgeries are NOT effective for long-term heart health outcomes. —The External CounterPulsation (ECP) Therapy developed 60 years ago by Harvard and how it duplicates 5 years of marathon training for the heart in just 7 weeks. And the touching story of how Dr. Prather came to bring this treatment into his office.—How Magnesium for men and Potassium for women are "absolutely critical" for those situations where a person dies suddenly and unexpectedly from a heart attack. —Why high Cholesterol is NOT the underlying problem, but an indicator of Cardiovascular Disease. And why Dr. Prather describes Cholesterol as the firefighters showing up to put out the fire. —How Chiropractic care helps with the Vagus Nerve, POTS (Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome), and can play a big role for atrial fibrillation (AFib). Plus, the Acupuncture points that can settle down the EKG of a patient while they are having a heart attack.—The Cardiac C-Reactive Protein Blood Test that is the biggest indicator of having a heart attack. And how Cardiologists are "amazed" by how Dr. Prather can quickly and effectively get positive changes in this measurement.—How you can get our Autonomic Nervous System Test for just $49 (normally a $195 value) by attending our next free Holistic Heart seminar with Dr. Prather on Wednesday, July 30th at 6:30 p.m.http://www.TheVoiceOfHealthRadio.com

Hormones are wild, especially when you realize they're not just about how much you have, but how your body uses and processes them behind the scenes. That's what hormone metabolite testing helps uncover, and honestly, it's a game-changer. I'm sitting down with Dr. Liz Bartman, an incredible Naturopathic Doctor with a deep background in hormone science, to talk about how we can actually test our hormones in a meaningful way and what those results are really telling us. We chat about the different ways to test—blood, saliva, urine—and why each one tells a slightly different story. Dr. Liz also shares what happens to our hormones during menopause (hint: it's not all doom and gloom) and why cholesterol is actually essential for hormone production. One of the most eye-opening parts? The way our bodies detox estrogen and what certain metabolites might be saying about our long-term health risks, like breast cancer. If you've ever felt like your labs weren't giving you the full picture, this one's for you. Dr. Liz brings a refreshingly smart, grounded approach to hormone health. Oh, and speaking of refreshing… I've been sipping on my new favorite thing lately: Mighty Maca Mango! It's the same powerful superfood blend you know and love, now with a zesty mango twist—perfect over ice or made into popsicles. You can grab it over at dranna.com.

ChatGPT recommends the Mediterranean diet as best for overall health. It groups red meat, sugar, and processed foods together as foods to avoid and recommends plant-based diets as superior. ChatGPT recommends avoiding keto and carnivore diets on a long-term basis. ChatGPT health advice comes from organizations such as the American Heart Association and the American Diabetes Association, which are heavily funded by certain industries and inherently biased. To lower cholesterol, ChatGPT claims you should lower dietary cholesterol, increase unsaturated fats, and replace animal proteins with plant proteins. Plants do not have complete protein, and if you reduce your dietary cholesterol, you could end up low in bile and vitamin D. Cholesterol is a vital component of your cell membranes, hormones, and brain.ChatGPT falsely claims that seed oils are not “that bad” when used in moderation. Balance and moderation allow you to continue eating bad food without worrying about the consequences. If you have a chronic disease, you can not simply “balance” your diet. If you have diabetes, you do not want to spike insulin with carbohydrates. ChatGPT recommends legumes and grains for people with diabetes and small, frequent meals. This advice would continue to spike insulin, and would not help reverse diabetes!When asked about diet and nutrition for people with chronic diseases, ChatGPT ignores powerful ways to drastically improve one's health, such as increasing vitamin D and fasting. It continues to recommend moderation for ultra-processed foods, claiming that it is safe and healthy for 20% of your daily calories to be ultra-processed.Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio:Dr. Berg, age 60, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.

Welcome to my podcast. I am Doctor Warrick Bishop, and I want to help you to live as well as possible for as long as possible. I'm a practising cardiologist, best-selling author, keynote speaker, and the creator of The Healthy Heart Network. I have over 20 years as a specialist cardiologist and a private practice of over 10,000 patients. Dr. Warrick Bishop, a cardiologist and CEO of the Healthy Heart Network, discusses the importance of understanding cholesterol in his podcast. He explains that cholesterol is crucial for cell membranes, hormone formation, and vitamin transport, and that LDL and HDL are transport vehicles for cholesterol. Dr. Bishop clarifies that cholesterol's impact on heart health is complex, as high LDL doesn't always indicate artery plaque, and low cholesterol doesn't always mean healthy arteries. He emphasizes the importance of coronary artery calcium scoring, particle numbers, and other factors in assessing artery health and predicting risk. For secondary prevention, lowering cholesterol is crucial, while primary prevention requires a personalized approach, considering individual risk factors and imaging.

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.

Hey Friend, Ever feel like your hormones are completely out of whack—but no one's giving you a straight answer? You've tried cutting carbs, squeezing in workouts, maybe even taking random supplements from your last late-night scroll… but your symptoms keep coming back. Mood swings, fatigue, stubborn weight gain, bloating. It's frustrating. And it's not your fault. In this week's episode of Functional Medicine for Christian Women, I'm walking you through what hormone symptoms are really telling you—and why chasing estrogen or progesterone fixes often misses the point.

Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with Dr. Nina Teicholz, a PhD nutritionist, founder of the Nutrition Coalition, and author of "The Big Fat Surprise".

The Protein Paradigm: Redefining Dietary Guidelines with Dr. Nina Teicholz, a PhD nutritionist, founder of the Nutrition Coalition, and author of "The Big Fat Surprise". The discussion focuses on controversies around dietary guidelines, particularly the misrepresentation of low-fat diets and the critical role of protein in optimal health. Dr. Teicholz addresses the flaws in the US Dietary Guidelines, highlights the impact of institutionalized groupthink on nutrition science, and argues for the reassessment of protein recommendations and the demonization of saturated fats. She also examines the challenges and influence of food industry conflicts on public health policies and shares insights on the potential for meaningful reform under the current administration.

By that, I don't just mean it was hard to nail down a time on his calendar to meet me for the podcast, which it was. Like with most founders and guests on First Principles, the gap between when I first invite them and when they finally appear is usually measured in months, sometimes years. I had first emailed Manish for First Principles in January 2023.But I'm saying Manish is hard to nail down also because he defies - resists - categorisation. Sure, he co-founded Teamlease, one of India's largest recruitment and human resource providers. It employs over 400,000 people, is listed on the stock exchanges, and is a great barometer of broader employment trends in India. But Manish is no longer involved with the day-to-day operations of the company, while still being the largest individual shareholder.Instead, he leads a “portfolio life”, dividing his time serving on the boards of think tanks, regulatory bodies, universities, non-profits, and even private companies like Phonepe; advising companies and the government on a host of topics like labour markets, regulation, employment, education, economic policy and reforms; being a columnist; and reading books. Oh yeah, he says he's read a book a week for the last - wait for this - 42 years!Thus, when I sat down with Manish last Thursday, I went in prepared, or as prepared as I could be, with my research and questions. But 10 minutes into the conversation, I decided to drop the conversation narrative I had in mind and instead let the conversation go where it needed to.Yes, we do cover entrepreneurship, ambition, and finding product-market fit by letting your customers guide your evolution, but we also go much further into topics that we normally don't. For example, India's macroeconomic and geopolitical chances, ‘regulatory cholesterol', higher education and the jobs crisis. All peppered with pithy aphorisms, vivid analogies, and memorable quotes every few minutes, this is something I've remembered Manish doing since I first met him as a journalist in the early 2010s.Welcome to First Principles.-This episode was produced by Hari Krishna, and the mixing and mastering of the episode was done by Rajiv CN.Write to us at fp@the-ken.com with your feedback, suggestions and guests you would want to see on First Principles.If you liked this episode, help us spread the word by sharing and gifting this episode with your friends and family.

In this episode, I'm challenging the fear-based narrative around high cholesterol and unpacking what your labs are really telling you. Spoiler: high cholesterol isn't a diagnosis—it's a data point that needs context.We dive into why dietary cholesterol (hello, eggs and beef) isn't the cause of clogged arteries, why inflammation and metabolic health matter way more, and how to read your cholesterol panel in a more informed and less fear-driven way.Here's what we cover:

A lot of influencers are going on all-meat diets, saying that all this meat is clearing up inflammation, healing their guts, and sharpening their focus. But others say, hold up — this diet is sure to lead to heart disease, cancer, and even scurvy. So we're asking: Is it possible to live on meat alone? Is there any benefit to the carnivore diet? And what are the risks? We talk to nutritionist Prof. Caryn Zinn and internist Dr. Adrian Soto-Mota.  Find our transcript here: https://bit.ly/ScienceVsCarnivore  In this episode, we cover: (00:00) Carnivores Bring the Meat (04:28) They're Gonna Get Scurvy, Right? (13:09) Fiber? Cholesterol? Heart Disease? Cancer? (20:11) A Miracle Diet? (22:31) Are Plants the Enemy? (25:57) Is it Just Keto? (27:50) Weight Loss (28:50) Should You Go Carnivore?
