Is 'BAD' Cholesterol Really Bad? #shorts

Metabolic disease + imbalances are a huge problem for the general population
.
And having #skinproblems certainly doesn't make u immune
.
One of the biggest issues is that lab reference ranges have changed over the years allowing for the normalization of health issues in their earlier stages 😢
.
My dad who was an MD + surgeon had told me about this years ago so it was not entirely shocking to me when my guest @robertlustigmd shared this (and other concerning details in episode 282 of the Healthy Skin Show podcast
.
The conversation is especially pertinent to those with #psoriasis because metabolic disease + liver disease are often comorbidities that can pop up with time
.
In this episode, we discuss...
.
🔸What is #metabolichealth + what all does it affect?
.
🔸Insight on the liver enzyme ALT + how it's normal range has changed
.
🔸What are Dr. Lustig's “Hateful Eight” for metabolic health?
.
🔸Why the diabetes diagnosis is exploding
.
🔸Glucose vs. fructose – which is worse?
.
🔸Importance of fiber in ur diet
.
Truly an eye-opening conversation u MUST hear!
.
.
It was an honor to meet Dr. Lustig in person last year + I do deeply appreciate him coming on the show!
