Lower your cholesterol with these foods | Dr David Jenkins

In Episode #216, I sit down with Dr David Jenkins to discuss the relationship between cholesterol and health. Cholesterol levels are concerningly high among populations consuming a standard Western diet. On the flip side, plant-based diets are often criticised for their lack of cholesterol. We know that cholesterol is an essential component of the human body — but is it necessary to consume it, and is this a concern for plant-based eaters? Dr David Jenkins answers this question and much more in today’s episode. In this episode, we dig into cholesterol and the health implications of sub-optimal levels. We discuss the Portfolio Diet, weight loss, and the current research on cholesterol. Dr Jenkins also shares his recommendations on how and what to eat for optimal cholesterol levels, as well as how medication compares to a lifestyle approach. Specifically, we cover: Intro (0:00) Researching Cholesterol & Diet (2:35) What this means for you (15:00) Weight Loss Factor (17:23) The Portfolio Diet Explained (20:14) Nuts & Seeds (30:37) Weight (39:45) Raising HDL (44:45) Plant Sterols (50:51) Should We Eat Fish? (58:52) Statins (1:07:49) Outro (1:11:22) You can learn more about Dr Jenkins and discover his publications on his University of Toronto profile.
