Busting Myths About Calories + Cholesterol

Two of my favorite myths to bust are…

  1. The myth that cholesterol causes heart disease.
  2. The myth that all calories are the same.

Earlier in the year I was interviewed by Jonathan Bailor and here are the myths we busted together…

The Great Cholesterol Myth

  • The four major promoters of heart disease (none of them are cholesterol).
  • Why cholesterol is vitally important to your health.
  • The real #1 killer of people in developed nations.
  • Why statin drugs often do more harm than good.
  • The new test everyone with “high cholesterol” should take.

The Calorie Myth

  • Why 128 calories of broccoli are totally different than the 128 calories from a slice of bread.
  • How a “cheat” day/meal every week can ruin your diet.
  • Why simply “eating less and exercising more” won’t help you reach your weight loss goals.
  • How to know if you have a delayed food sensitivity that is causing you to gain weight.
