Let's talk about the best carbohydrate that can actually help you lower your cholesterol.

Now, in some cases, cholesterol is not a problem if it's a little bit higher, especially when you're

starting the ketogenic diet because you're mobilizing a lot of cholesterol from the fat cell.

But let's say, for example, your LDL, especially the one that is pathogenic, the small dense

lipoprotein is too high, or you just have very high levels of cholesterol, and you want to lower

naturally, what do you do? There's one specific food that can help you, but I want to give you

just a tiny bit of background before I reveal that food. The first thing to know is that your

body makes cholesterol. In fact, it makes way more cholesterol than the cholesterol that you consume.

Number two, the primary mode of elimination of excess cholesterol happens through your

bile ducts with the help of bile salts. Bile salts are like detergents. They help you break down

fats. They help lubricate the colon. So if you don't have enough bile, you can get constipated,

and just being constipated can back up the flow of this excess cholesterol. Your liver makes bile,

it's stored in the gallbladder, and bile can help to bind to cholesterol and then help move

out of the body, and it also gets rid of toxins as well. And there's two types of bile. You have

primary, and you have secondary. Primary bile is made by your liver. Secondary bile is made

by the friendly bacteria in your large intestine, and they're both in communication very closely

in their regulation. So for example, if you don't make as much in your colon,

then the liver is going to make a little bit more. If you don't make as much in your liver,

the colon should make a little bit more. They both are in communication. The next question is,

what carbohydrate can help you reduce your cholesterol? Because typically carbohydrates will

increase your cholesterol. Like sugar, for example, you'll end up with high, not just cholesterol,

but high LDL, high triglycerides. But there are three types of carbohydrates, sugars, starches,
