Why has the 50-year-old recommendation to reduce dietary fat failed to make a dent in heart disease, death, or heart procedures? Could it be that the entire premise of this advice is based on flawed evidence and misleading conclusions about LDL cholesterol? In this eye-opening episode, we uncover the shocking truth about the ineffectiveness of cutting dietary fat and how it's time for a new approach to managing cardiovascular risk. We dive into the science behind carbohydrates and sugars, and how they create small LDL particles - a direct cause of coronary disease. These particles are different from LDL cholesterol and can persist in our bloodstream for five to seven days, giving them ample time to create atherosclerotic plaque in our coronary arteries. We debunk myths about measuring small LDL particles and emphasize the need for individuals to take control of their own health by understanding how to manage it effectively. Don't miss out on the strategies that could help reduce or even eliminate your cardiovascular risk, such as the Wheat Belly books, Super Gut books, or joining the DrDavisInfiniteHealth.com website. It's time to join the movement for self-empowered health and take control of your well-being today!
