hey guys I wanted to create this quick video on this one really important point the dangerous cholesterol that is in your arteries that is plaquing the arteries is not coming from the dietary fat that you’re consuming okay let me explain there’s a term I want to define here de novo lipid Genesis this means the creation of new lipids so your body is making new lipids from carbohydrates so if you ask 10 people in the street what causes high cholesterol none of them are gonna mention carbohydrates they’re gonna tell you it’s dietary fat okay like things like eggs and meats what they don’t know it’s the carbohydrates sugars breads pasta things like that that is creating a tremendous amount of fat and cholesterol in your arteries and not the healthy type the stuff that’s sticky the stuff that plaques the stuff that makes your arteries hardened and it starts increasing blood pressure and the reason for that is that the carbohydrate storage is very limited we only have a certain amount of storage for a glycogen okay and then after that everything is dumped and converted into the storage system either fat or into the arteries into the liver around the organs as visceral fat now when you increase the fat and the diet okay you at the same time you keep your carbs low you’re going to keep in some low and it will not be the type of cholesterol that is dangerous it’s not going to be the type that creates inflammatory conditions that then will cause the plaquing to develop so a higher fat diet is totally fine as long as you’re keeping your carbohydrates well and many of the studies that they do to prove that a high-fat diet causes heart problems and diabetes etc they’re using a high fat and a high carb diet so you just really have to understand that one point but the biggest point I want you to understand in this video is that carbohydrates refined carbohydrates and sugar actually create the dangerous type of cholesterol that is in most people’s body all right thanks for so I want to thank you for being here and watching my videos if you haven’t already subscribed go ahead and do so so you can stay informed of future videos
