LDL feeds the immune system more directly…
-than other lipoproteins
If you don’t have high LDL & trying to fight off infection:
-you can’t make white blood cells
Study in Wuhan 2021:
-results:
~those with lowest LDL did not mount
a good immune response; died
Seed oils lower your LDL by…
-poisoning the whole lipid cycle (how fats circulate)
~cited in Deep Nutrition & The Fatburn Fix books
Think about it:
-why would nature make:
-LDL bad & HDL good?
LDL is there for a reason…
-just like we need cholesterol
LDL has role in distribution of fats & fat soluble nutrients…
-getting cholesterol into cells that need it
-cholesterol necessary for cell division
-most active area of body during infection:
~bone marrow
~white blood cells
~lymph nodes
Bone marrow makes millions of white blood cells per second:
-cholesterol is a limiting factor
-cell uses to decide whether to divide
You need cholesterol for reproduction
-estrogen & testosterone based on
cholesterol molecules
It is what is in your lipid protein particles that :
-makes the difference in whether
~high triglycerides or
~high cholesterol will cause a stroke
“You likely won’t have high triglycerides
unless you have insulin resistance,
which comes from too many seed oils”
When people become fat-adapted & produce more ketones…
-their LDL & total cholesterol will go up
-because burning more body fat
-consequence of that metabolic change
-a good thing
What is bad?
-high triglyceride to HDL ratio
Reverses when you get seed oils out
You don’t necessary need to get rid of
all fructose…
But, the two (seed oils & fructose)
together damage your liver…
So many animal studies that show…
-even without high carb diet
-can give animals
~insulin resistance
~prediabetes & diabetes
~by altering the fatty acid composition
the animal is eating
