EPISODE #11: “Fix Your Cholesterol Problem!”
In this session, we discuss whether Cholesterol is good or bad.
Facts About Cholesterol:
5% of the dry weight of your brain is made of cholesterol.
Your nerves are made of cholesterol.
Most cholesterol in the body doesn’t come from foods. It is made by the body itself.
Your body uses cholesterol to make your hormones and Vitamin D.
Every cell in your body is surrounded by a membrane containing cholesterol, without which, no cell in your body could function.
Without cholesterol to help your digestion, you couldn’t absorb the fat soluble vitamins like vitamin A and vitamin E.
When following a low cholesterol diet, your liver makes up the difference by producing more cholesterol just to be sure you have enough!
High cholesterol in the blood doesn’t come from eating foods high in cholesterol; it comes from a metabolism that is not efficient at handling the cholesterol you need
Problem cells = insulin resistant (whether person is lean or obese!)
