Good Cholesterol …
They Got It All Wrong!
In
the eighties you were told to lower your overall cholesterol.
Then
(LDL)
bad cholesterol and (HDL) good cholesterol was discovered. And you were
advised to lower your bad cholesterol and raise the good cholesterol.
Now,
a new study reveals that both these approaches are complete shams and will
increase your risk of heart attack and cause cancer.
The
study presented at the American Urological Association 2017 annual meeting and
has also been published in the Journal
of Urology casts
major doubt on raising (HDL) good cholesterol by showing that high HDL can cause prostate
cancer.
They
examined 4,904 men over a period of four years, requiring them to undergo
cholesterol tests and prostate cancer biopsies. These men were taking no
medication for their cholesterol.
Every
10 mg/dl (milligrams per deciliter) of extra total (LDL
+ HDL)
cholesterol was associated with a 23 percent greater risk of developing
high-grade prostate cancer. This is the type that is serious and may spread
fast.
In
addition, every 10 mg/dl of extra (HDL) good cholesterol was associated with a
74 percent greater risk of high-grade prostate cancer and a 34 percent greater
chance of prostate cancer of any grade.
So,
what on earth has gone wrong here? Isn’t HDL cholesterol supposed to be good, removing the bad cholesterol from your bloodstream to be excreted?
That
is clearly how HDL cholesterol works, but researchers have previously concluded
that increasing your HDL cholesterol score is not actually beneficial for your
heart health at all.
In
2014, the BMJ published a large scientific literature review with 117,411
patients across 39 previously conducted studies who were taking drugs to
increase their HDL.
While
their HDL increased, it did not reduce their risk of suffering a stroke or
heart attack, or dying of coronary heart disease, or actually dying of any
other cause.
That
is, increasing (HDL) good cholesterol is useless for improving your heart health and health in general.
So,
what must you do to lower your cholesterol without increasing your HDL and collecting a bout
of prostate cancer?
What
this (and most studies) was missing is that they didn’t take into account the
third type of cholesterol.
The one that is the real cause of plaque buildup in your arteries, stroke and
heart attack.
This post is from the
Oxidized Cholesterol Strategy Program created by Scott Davis. He once suffered
from High Cholesterol so much that he even had a severe heart attack. This is what
essentially led him to finding healthier alternatives to conventional
medication.
The program is highly
focused on eliminating one simple ingredient you consume every single day, an ingredient
you had no idea you were even putting it your body. What’s scary is that
this ingredient isn’t even listed on the label of many common food choices.
It’s terrifying stuff! So, this system starts you off with valuable information
about this one simple ingredient, what it’s doing to your body and what you can
do about it. But it doesn’t end there.
The Oxidized
Cholesterol Strategy goes on to
teach you a wide range of diet, fitness, lifestyle, exercise, sleep and eating
tips that will help you maximize your results. More importantly, these tips
will help completely clean out any plaque build-up in your arteries.
