Nobody else goes into such detailed explanations while keeping it simple for the non-medically trained folk. Thank you.

My levels of triglycerides were sky high even though I have a stellar diet. And I mean STELLAR. There was however, one problem: I drank like a fish. Three years ago I quit drinking and triglycerides went back to normal.

To lower triglycerides is very easy. Eat wild fish salmon and sardines. Generally healthy fats, and reduce processed carbs. I take high quality fish oil supplements. My Triglycerides are 38, hdl are 80. I eat all meats pork, beef, Lamb etc. no sugar and no booze.

i am part of a heart health program at the Ottawa University Heart institute called Cardio Prevent. It is for women to address thier risk factors for CAD. I showed your videos to my PT leader there - she watched them and says they are amazing and shares them to her patients. They are factual and easy to understand. Keep up the good work... i no longer eat processed food, sugar or alcohol and at age 63 have lost 30 lbs, am no longer pre-diabetic and no longer take high BP meds. You are saving lives!

When I saw my cardiologist he wasn't worried about my triglycerides, but I told him that I was disappointed in my lab result. He said, "Well, it isn't really the fat, it's sugar." I was already "limiting" sugar, but obviously it wasn't enough. Three months ago I removed all added sugar from my diet, and all my lab numbers now look great.

What I like about your videos is that you get right to the point. There is no blah-blah-blah that just extends the video without providing the specific health information that is most helpful. Thank you.

Excellent explanation and advice and a lot better than the usual way of pressurising patients to start taking Statins from the medical profession.
