Dr. Cate Shanahan - 'Practical Lipid Management for LCHF Patients'

Dr. Cate Shanahan is a board certified Family Physician. She trained in biochemistry and genetics at Cornell University before attending Robert Wood Johnson Medical School. She practiced in Hawaii for ten years where she studied ethnobotany and her healthiest patient’s culinary habits.

Dr. Shanahan is also science director of the LA Lakers PRO Nutrition program, consultant for Mark Sisson's Primal BluePrint certification program and author of the underground classic 'Deep Nutrition: Why Your Genes Need Traditional Food', and the easy-to-read executive summary of holistic nutrition, 'Food Rules: A Doctors Guide to Healthy Eating'.

Dr Shanahan became an advocate for healthy living when she began to observe dramatic declines in the health of her patient's bone structure, immune-system function, and behavioural development in subsequent generations of patients in the same family. She attributes these changes to the two most powerful toxins in the food supply: Vegetable oils and sugars.

Thank goodness for people like this woman and all the others who are prepared to go out on a limb and tell us the truth, not what someone has paid or bullied them to say. Bravo.

5:02 "... so now we know that all LDL is bad. LDL is something we shouldn't have in our body, but we do ... and actually all animals do ... and that means that really all of nature is wrong" ... 😂

Wish i had seen this 5 years ago.
Thank you dr Cate

Amazing speech. The things she mentions really connect the dots with what I already know.

[MrJOHNMICHAELVEGA]

I am glad you exist ! Sadly 99.99% of the people I come in contact are too lazy and say that their doctors will take care of them and so continue with their faux beliefs ! Thank you 🙏 from my heart to yours Michael ❤️🎶

[leeleeturn]

Just left my cardiologist.
Hes still in shock as my LdL is 7.6 says I have "FH" . Suggested pics meds .
Trig/HDL ratio 0.8?

Loved this presentation.. the last part however where she says "eat more vegetables" left me wanting to hear an explanation.. I've yet to see a good presentation or article on the science behind vegetables being the super healthy items they've been cracked up to be in recent times... if anyone could recommend something to check out in regards to that it'd be tremendously appreciated. Doesn't the body produce it's own very powerful antioxidants like glutathione? Does it really need vegetable specific antioxidants? I dont picture ancient man and his ancestors eating tons of raw vegetables before fire was invented.. And how do we know which antioxidants are the ones that help us?

[mikemccartneyable]

That was a super talk, very informative

[andrewdanger]

Dr. Shanahan: another question. If aPOb receptors are damaged, is there a way to repair them? Many thanks, Andy

[andrewdanger]

Dr. Shanahan: Thank you for this informative lecture. It goes against everything I have been doing for 35-40 years!! 1 question: is it true that if there is plaques CRP numbers will always be elevated?

[robrae]

My total C is only 150...70 LDL and 80 HDL. But I inherited LP(a) which was 204 nmol in January and now it’s 102 taking niacin. Any other advice for lowering this?

[josieb]

You’ve answered some of my questions. Very nice presentation!❤️

At 25:00, interesting theory on why vegetable oil PUFA lowers LDL. Maybe the folks at Harvard School of Public Health should pay attention.

[MylesAbove]

Very good talk, it makes sense, not that cholesterol really ever does, it seems. Professor Sikaris in his talk a couple of years ago was saying that the small dense LDL particles are they dangerous ones, he did mention about the modified LDL as being bad also, stating he didn't know why they changed (oxidised).
I am a type 1 diabetic that has recently begun LCHF diet, it seems to be working out much better than the typical HCLF diet I was on previously. So do we still eat cooked meat, which will contain those PUFA and it would be good to know how much meat that has been cooked actually has.
