Cholesterol Myths and Brain Health

Forty years ago a cholesterol level of 300 was perfectly fine.

I'd like to suggest to you It's perfectly fine today.

And what are we told?

You can't go above 190.

Is that right?

And if you go above 190, what are you told?

You've got to go on cholesterol-lowering medication.

Are you ready for the side effects of cholesterol-lowering medication?

Alzheimer's, dementia, muscle wasting, memory loss,

and they've just added another one, breast cancer.

Because our sex hormones are made from cholesterol.

The Framingham Heart Study, it was a study

that was put together to prove that cholesterol causes heart disease.

It's 40 years later and it still hasn't proved it,

but you know what it did show?

People with high cholesterol levels don't get Alzheimer's.

Why don't they get Alzheimer's?

Because the fattiest organ in the body is the brain and it loves fat as fuel.

Depriving the brain of fat is a disaster.

If someone's on a fat-free diet, on cholesterol-lowering medication,

got a mouthful of mercury fillings because mercury damages this myelin sheath,

and they're eating fish every day, can you see that's a recipe for brain destruction?

If you are on cholesterol-lowering medication, you can stop immediately.

There will be a side effect.

Your memory will return.
