Let's talk about the seven foods that will lower your bad cholesterol, the LDL, but I

really need to clarify this bad cholesterol because there's so much confusion. Every time I do my

live show on Friday morning, this question comes up over and over and over. So I'm just

gonna do another video to try to make it really, really simple and understandable. So there's two

types of LDL, but if we just take a step back and just talk about cholesterol, when you get your

blood profile and it says your total cholesterol, you have to realize that they're not measuring the

cholesterol that's floating down your bloodstream because cholesterol can't float down the bloodstream

because it's all fat-civil. It doesn't mix with water. So when they say total cholesterol,

what they really mean is all the cholesterol in these different protein shuttles, okay? And

primarily I'm talking about HDL and LDL. There's other shuttles, but let's just keep this really simple.

So when you see total cholesterol, what you're really seeing is you're just combining the cholesterol

and the LDL and the HDL, generally speaking. And so when we talk about HDL, which is consider the

good cholesterol, really what HDL is, it's the cholesterol going from the arteries or the cells

back to the liver and the LDL, which people say is bad, is going from the liver to the cells or

the arteries. So this next part I'm going to talk about is really important because if you see your

LDL very high, okay? You're going to probably like be concerned. But when you go to the doctor and

get your prescription to get your cholesterol tested, they nearly always test LDL cholesterol,

okay? They don't check anything else related to LDL and there are two different measurements for

LDL. And this is really, really important to understand because the real villain on cholesterol

and heart problems is a very specific type of LDL. And it relates to a test that you would have to

ask for. It's an advanced lipid profile test and it stands for LDL P particle. You're looking at

the number of particles and the size of the particles, okay? Now, what is a particle? Well, like I
