The Cholesterol Myth: What Really Clogs Our Arteries

Testing Total Cholesterol, HDL and LDL is a completely outmoded and outdated test which does not give any indicator as to whether or not we are a candidate for a heart attack. The video explains what actually clogs the arteries, some anatomy of the wall of the artery and how plaque forms and the better tests that are more up to date and should be added to our repertoire of blood work if we want to keep up with research on cardiovascular disease in the 21st century. The truth is we are relying on a decades old testing paradigm that has never been shown to be of any value in predicting heart disease, and more importantly, many people have been put on very dangerous statin drugs when they did not need them in the first place.

Also explained in the video is how to prevent plaque from forming in the first place by following age-old and time-tested techniques for proper diet, daily routine and cleansing techniques offered to us through the sound knowledge of Ayurveda.

Research has not only proven that high cholesterol is not an indicator for heart disease, but it even goes further to show that if you do have clogged arteries, statin drugs do nothing to clean them out. We have three methods in Ayurvedic medicine to scrub and clean out the arteries which has been verified on before and after CT scans of the arteries.

My mom used to have high cholesterol, she never had heart troubles and lived to the age of 99

I'm 73 year old male, who had a "physical" recently. I thought all was well until my doctor called about about a week later, to let me know my cholesterol was high, (215), and that I needed to come in. I went in fully prepared to resist her putting me on statins. She didn't disappoint me, and advised I get on statins right away. I laughed, and said "no thank you". She did not back down, so I told her that I didn't blame her, because "Big Pharma" has had such a powerful influence on health care providers.
I believe this is pretty much automatic behavior now, along with referring you to a specialist, no matter what you came in for.

Finally. At least ONE doctor stepped out from comfort zone ( as a many of contemporary trained American and Great Britain physicians) and had a courage to explain to all of us a truth of the role of cholesterol. I’m an old school physician and I support his message.

[vickyburton]

I sure wish I could find a physician who agreed with this!

[laulaja-]

A real doctor who actually talks to us, yay!

[toni]

My doctor has given up telling me how high my cholesterol is and no longer suggests I take meds for it. She got the message.

[lounagy]

My cardiologist would have a heart attack if I brought this up.

[indesdaryl]

Thank you for exposing the truth about cholesterol and heart disease. We need more doctors like you who knows how the body really works.

[mehmetcamat]

this video has been far more informative than any video I watched on YouTube on coronary artery plaques

[Beyondabsence]

Just when my trust in medicine was about to collapse for good, this inspiring woman emerged on my feed, reigniting my hope with her presence.

[arronemmanuel]

Oh my god I'm on meds for cholesterol and knew nothing abt this u have OPENED MY EYES thank u ❤❤❤❤

[rolfwittwer]

Two people close to me died of brain haemorrhages soon after telling me how they had achieved very low cholesterol levels through use of statins. Coincidence?

[anitadenton]

This doctor is outstanding!!!
She knows and explains clearly, please everything listen to her 💕🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

[coloradomark]

This video made more sense about heart disease and cholesterol than all the others I have watched and I've watched a bunch. Thanks Doc!

I saw a doctor on UK TV this morning stating that 20-30 years ago hospitals were full of people with heart failure and today due to statins there is hardly anyone in hospital with heart failure. I couldn't believe what I was hearing & the frightening thing is they are convinced that this is the truth!!

[helenweatherby]

Thank you, thank you thank you. My cholesterol is 6.5 and my GP keeps trying to persuade me to take statins. I have seen too many friends turn into old people within weeks of starting statins.

I was put on statins after a heart attack. 2 days before the attack I had been bitten on the chest by a horse at a riding school I was working at. He knocked me clear across the yard. I had bruising right across my chest and back. So I assume that I had some internal bleeding. Being a normal guy, I picked myself up, swore at the horse, and carried on working. I worked the next 2 days. Then on the Friday evening went out for a meal. At about 3am I woke up feeling a bit strange and went to the kitchen to get some water. I didn't make it. I collapsed, dropping my glass on the way. I remember thinking "wow! That bounced!"
I came to about 20 minutes later. I got dressed and walked a mile to a friend's house. I got them to take me to hospital. That's where they confirmed that I'd had a heart attack. The hospital put a couple of stents in to the arteries going into my heart. They were something like 88% blocked. I asked if this was caused by the bruising from the horse bite. I was told that it was because I was a smoker. I find it strange that the internal bleeding was totally discounted. I was prescribed about 6 different drugs for after care. Statins being one of them. I stopped taking them after a month, because I felt awful each time I took them. It's been 7 years. I eat meat, fish, butter, olive oil. I take vitamin D and use an antihistamine because I work outdoors and get bitten by mosquitos and get many scratches from plants. I don't even bother with the blood thinners. My sats are in the 90s and resting heart rate in the 70s. I still smoke. I drink wine and beer when it suits me. I still climb ladders and trees and dig out post holes. I'm 61 next birthday.
Stay away from prescription medication. There's no money in curing people. And that's the bottom line.

Blaming cholesterol for heart disease is like blaming the fireman for the fire because he is found there at the fire.

[JigsawPuzzleConnection]

Wow we need more doctors like you. Doctors just want you to think it is too high so they can push harmful drugs.
