The Health Upgrade Podcast

In this episode of the Health Upgrade podcast, we explore the hotly debated topic of cholesterol and its impact on overall health. We begin by discussing cholesterol's fundamental role in our bodies, challenging the long-held belief that dietary cholesterol is a primary cause of heart disease. JP breaks down the intricacies of lipoproteins, LDL, HDL, and triglycerides, highlighting how our understanding of cholesterol has shifted over time, heavily influenced by outdated studies and industry agendas.

We also emphasize the true culprits behind metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular diseases – processed carbohydrates and sugars. We explore the importance of maintaining balanced cholesterol levels for cell membrane flexibility and overall vascular health. The conversation also touches on how modern dietary habits, overloaded with processed sugars and carbs, have led to increased instances of heart disease and other metabolic disorders. Lastly, we provide practical advice on monitoring and balancing cholesterol through diet, exercise, and understanding the roles of LDL and HDL particles.
