hey guys listen I want to talk about what would happen if your cholesterol went high on a ketogenic diet okay the first thing you to know is that when you lose weight the fat cells actually shrink they don’t go away completely you can’t get rid of a fat cell but you can shrink it second thing you need to know is inside that fat cell you have triglycerides and you have cholesterol a lot of people don’t realize that cholesterol is also stored in the fat cell so as the fat cell shrinks you can burn triglycerides for fuel but you cannot burn cholesterol it’s not a fuel source so what’s going to happen it’s going to have to be eliminated through the body as you lose weight so as your fat cells squeeze it comes out of fat cells and the cholesterol goes increase it’s going to increase in the blood it’s going to go through the liver and it’s going to come out through the biome okay so as long as your liver is healthy and you’re eating a lot of vegetables that’s what I recommend and also you have uh enough bile you’re totally fine um even if your LDL is high the key thing is to make sure your triglycerides are low because if you’re not using the triglycerides as um fuel then there’s a problem okay probably you’re eating too much sugar but if you’re on a ketogenic diet you’re doing it correctly and your triglycerides are low and your hdls are high but your ldi is high all that means is that you’re burning more LDL there’s no bad effects that are going to happen just keep your veget high and then when you as you get closer to your weight loss goal that will level out and come back to normal okay thanks for watching he I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for your amazing amazing successes that you guys are writing about and I would love to have a complete success story from you with a before picture and an after picture as well if you have that and I put a link down below so you can fill it out if you don’t have a weight loss before and after just put an image of yourself and success I would love to read it and I would love to share it with others because it does give them hope that they could be helped too thank you so much
