In conversation with Andrew D. Huberman, Ph.D., Peter Attia explains why ApoB should be treated as a causal driver of heart disease, not just a risk marker: “There is no ambiguity that ApoB is causally related to atherosclerosis.” “LDL cholesterol or ApoB, causally related to atherosclerosis. Well, if that’s... show more

🫀Is Causality Overrated? A Response to Peter Attia on Andrew D. Huberman, Ph.D. (Full Video for X) I wanted to respectfully address Dr. Peter Attia's views on causality, LDL, ApoB, and cardiovascular disease, offering a rebuttal to his position on the topic. I think he misses a big-picture point about what causality means and what it doesn’t when it comes to heart health. The TL;DR version is that “causality is not the logical equivalence of importance” and even if we identify a causal factor, it does not mean that factor should be treated. But let’s see if I can convince you. To that end I beg 10 minutes of your time if you share our passion for logical, responsible preventive care, metabolic health, and heart health. This is not an attempt to ‘dunk’ on anyone, but rather to catalyze a much-needed conversation in the realm of cardiology and cholesterol research. I hope you find this discussion respectful, thought-provoking, and an opportunity to expand the conversation. While I’m not expecting a response from Peter, consider this – at minimum – a time capsule and open invitation to evolve a dialogue that’s too long been siloed.

Dr. Paul Saladino reveals why the standard belief about LDL cholesterol is failing your heart health "Why do humans only develop atherosclerosis in arteries and not veins? The same amount of LDL cholesterol is circulating in my veins as in my arteries. It's a contiguous system. Veins don't develop atherosclerosis, only arteries" "Arteries are much more muscular because they must carry more pressure. When there's more pressure, there's more denuding of the endothelium, which means there's more damage just by being an artery because the pressure in there is higher" "My argument is apoB-containing particles like LDL are not atherosclerotic. You need endothelial damage to initiate atherosclerosis. Maybe they're arriving to the scene of the damage as part of the healing process—are they the firemen or are they the arsonist?"

"Just Because Cholesterol Is At The Scene Of The Crime, Doesn't Mean It's The Perpetrator." Dr Aseem Malhotra, Cardiologist "Cholesterol Is Not The Driver Of Atherosclerosis Plaque. Cholesterol Is The Firefighter, The First Responder." We find cholesterol in these fatty deposits in the inner lining of the artery, these plaques, but the cholesterol is also there with lots of immune cells. The damage to the lining of the inner artery is caused by lifestyle factors such as smoking, sugar & stress... And then the response to that damage to try & heal the artery is when you get these deposits & cholesterol is there. Cholesterol is not the driver, it just happens to be at the scene of the crime. Atherosclerosis is an inflammatory disease. Not a cholesterol disease or a statin deficiency. LDL is an important transport molecule involved in the immune system & contains vital heart nutrients like CoQ10, Vitamin E & antioxidants. True Causes of Inflammation & Atherosclerosis: Industrial Seed Oils Processed Sugar Carbohydrates Insulin Resistance Ultra Processed Foods Smoking Obesity Environmental Toxins Poor Sleep Low Vitamin D Levels Magnesium Deficiency K2 Deficiency Lack of Exercise Stress A low carbohydrate diet prioritizing nutrient dense animal foods, eliminating harmful seed oils & sugar, provides the best healthy cholesterol profile. This approach keeps Triglycerides low & HDL high, which is one of the best biomarkers for heart health. TG/HDL ratio optimally should be less than 2.0 & even better at 1.5 or less. 👇Low Cholesterol Increases Mortality👇 👇The Higher Your LDL, The Longer You Live👇 Speakers: Dr Aseem Malhotra & Gary Brecka

Cardiology Has an LDL Obsession. What to Measure Instead... 🔗New video: 👇1 min clip on LDL vs Insulin Resistance The landscape of atherosclerosis is changing. New drugs are lowering LDL, total cholesterol and ApoB lower and lower, while larger risk factors like insulin resistance, obesity, and diabetes persist. If you want a comparison, lipoprotein insulin resistance score (LP-IR). Because 1.0 is risk neutral, insulin resistance score is a more than 14X more powerful predictor of new coronary heart disease than LDL. But we know who gets all the attention. Answer: [See Clip] That’s not proportional medicine Do you agree? For more nuances see the video linked above. cc Benjamin Bikman Dave Feldman

Cardiology has become obsessed with the mantra “lower is better.” Lower LDL, lower ApoB, and you're going to be better off. This simple tagline misses the forest for a stupid little cholesterol shrub. It’s well known that intervening to lower LDL and ApoB doesn’t necessarily result in better overall outcomes for the whole person, even in circumstances where cardiovascular risk might be reduced. It's therefore incredibly sad when "certain cardiologist experts" (heavy quotes there) make false claims like: "people with a PCSK9 loss of function mutation have very low LDL-C and live 15-20 years longer than those who don't. And we have meds now that cause that effect." That nonsense I could forgive. What is far more troubling is that there's a general failure to challange problematic (and sometimes outright false) narratives like this provided they align with the status quo, even when the status quo has failed public health miserably. We need to broaden the aperture of the discussion because the "science is not settled." Below is an excerpt from this morning video on the lipid marker linked to longevity (not LDL or ApoB): 🚨Then, of course, watch The Cholesterol Code movie on Amazon and leave a review! #CholesterolCodeMovie Dave Feldman

Busting the cholesterol myth! Unless it’s ridiculously high (over 300) LDL cholesterol is not a major risk factor for heart disease. Dr Aseem Malhotra’s work shows there is no clear correlation between lowering LDL and preventing heart attacks. In the high risk groups over five years, Statins give a median increase in life expectancy of 4 days.

I'm not a doctor and neither is this man but hundreds of hours of personal research lead me to agree with most of his cholesterol panel dissection. Total cholesterol: Fairly useless. LDL is not the boogeyman (although glycated LDL can be a problem) Triglycerides divided by HDL is the best predictor of heart disease risk in a cholesterol panel.

$The pathway to heart disease goes through the mitochondria. It's not LDL cholesterol, nor very fine LDL fraction, nor ApoB that best predicts risk of heart disease. It's blood glucose. Spikes in blood glucose cause glycation -- attachment of a glucose molecule to lipoprotiens -- that weaponizes cholesterol against your arteries. Smaller cholesterol particles are more susceptible to glycation, sure. BUT without the blood glucose spikes resulting from insulin resistance, there's no increased risk of heart disease. Someone should probably tell the statin pushers their days prescription royalties are soon coming to an end. h/t Paul Reynolds Dr. Ammous$

2023. Bernie says there should not be billionaires, and is pressed on what his line is for exactly how much wealth he thinks someone should be able to have. "If there should not be billionaires, then that’s the line.” There it is. The magical number that Bernie has decreed as the maximum amount of individual success that should be allowed in America.

Why Are We Still Playing "Cholesterol Uno?" 🤔👇 (85 sec clip, link to full video below) "When faced with data showing that “optimal” LDL-C levels fail to prevent atherosclerosis, the final retreat is almost always the same: the LDL-C just wasn’t low enough. “Lower is better” the mantra goes. If a mean LDL of 57 mg/dL isn’t sufficient to make atherosclerosis an orphan disease, then the solution must be 40. Or 30. Or 20. Or even 10 mg/dL. Heck, let’s just try to hit zero like we’re playing cholesterol Uno… What this reflexive response reveals is the profound keyhole thinking that has come to dominate conventional cardiology Medicine has become so siloed and sub-specialized that success is often defined within the narrow boundaries of a single biomarker or organ system, rather than in terms of whole-person health. It is entirely possible—at least in theory—that taking a sledgehammer to LDL-C and ApoB, driving them as close to zero as possible, could further reduce cardiovascular events. But that framing dodges the far more important question: what are we trading? Because LDL-lowering therapies are not benign."

The corruption of our medical system goes much deeper than you think. Alan Cassels just exposed how the American Heart Association manipulates health guidelines to “sell sickness” and turn healthy people into patients for profit. “The new definition of ‘high cholesterol’ is almost 100 million Americans.” “This is a massive market.” “The reason is so obvious.” “Because there’s so much money in it.” “The American Heart Association came out with a new set of guidelines just earlier this month.” “They are a fascinating study in the creation of disease.” “The recommendations around when you should test somebody for high cholesterol have changed.” “Instead of just testing older people, we should be testing younger people.” “We should be screening children.” “We should be getting people to submit to a cholesterol test every 5 years.” “There are new cholesterol-lowering drugs.” “There are new ways to take healthy people and turn them into candidates for whom the drug would be prescribed.” “I think cholesterol is one of the most absurd examples of the selling of sickness.” “The danger of high cholesterol has not changed.” “It’s a small risk factor.” “If you take a cholesterol-lowering drug for 10 years, it might reduce your risk of having a heart attack or stroke by about 1%, if you’re lucky.” “About 20-25% of the people who take the drug will not be able to tolerate it because of adverse effects.” “We’re talking about a drug that has an extremely low yield and a high likelihood of being harmful.” Alan Cassels Jeffrey A Tucker

Bret Weinstein discusses the fearful response to risk, exploration and frontiers in the context of Pa Ingalls and the Little House on the Prairie series. Bret Weinstein explains, "life proceeds by finding frontiers, and that those frontiers are an indication of great potential profit at risk. You can't separate those things. That's what the market is, risk versus reward. If there isn't much risk, there won't be much reward. That's a part of the emergent feature of nature. And so you are effectively looking at three and a half billion years of evolution that produced the miracle that is you, and asking, well, wasn't there a lot of risk involved there? Why'd you all do it? And it's like, well, stop it. Speak for humanity. Nobody's inviting you to the frontier because you'd be useless and you'd be a hazard. But don't tell other people don't go to the frontier and don't mock them if it goes wrong. People who go to the frontier, understanding that there is risk, don't always do okay. But the ones that do are the ones that make history."

Historian Niall Ferguson: Despite risks, overthrowing the regime in Iran would be a positive step for Iranians, the region, and the world. “Is there a risk to toppling Khamenei? Yeah, there is. Is there a risk to leaving the guy in power and whoever succeeds him when he finally croaks? There’s a big risk to that. I would say, on balance, it’s a bigger risk to leave this regime in place. It’s just shown what it’s capable of.”
