In other threads FireDragon76, timewerx, myst33, and I have been dicussing (arguing lol) camp diets and health Fire brought up apoB and I decided to investigate the science. There is a misconception about cholesterol that we’ve heard about for so many years and it is found that apoB is a driver to cardiovascular disease. I have a genetic disposition to high cholesterol and take statins. To sum it all up, eat whole foods, move your butts, reduce sugar and saturated fats. Stay healthy all. (my comments)
apolipoprotein b (apoB) has lipoprotein particles that are harmful to our arteries and has been found to cause cardiovascular disease..
apoB- protein that more accurately identifies the risk associated with LDL cholesterol
apoB not LDL- “summary, the number of LDL particles (i.e. apoB level) has been shown to be more strongly causally related to ASCVD than the cholesterol content (i.e. LDL-C level)”
Diets- “The Mediterranean diet, vegan diet, fermented dairy products, lower sugar intake, higher protein intake, higher polyunsaturated fat intake, and an omega-3–rich diet are associated with a decreased apoB:apoA1 ratio.”
Exercise- “Physical activity was found to be usually associated with an increase in HDL cholesterol and a decrease in LDL cholesterol and triglycerides. Exercise, apart from inducing quantitative alterations in serum lipids, exerts a beneficial impact on HDL particle maturation, composition and functionality.” (amongst many other things)
Other issues associated with health.
Metabolic Syndrome (MetS)-“ Metabolic syndrome (MetS) risks cardiovascular diseases due to its associated Dyslipidemia. It is proposed that a low-carbohydrate, high-fat (LCHF) diet positively ameliorates the MetS and reverses insulin resistance.” (Ketogenic, carnivoir diet with high-unsaturated/low-saturated-fat)
Vegetable oils- “However, the repeatedly heated vegetable oils increase the effect of lipid peroxidation and aggravate the development of CVD.”
Western diets- (are a major cause of the diseases we see today.) “The “modern” Western diet is characterized by a high content of saturated fats, sugar, corn-derived fructose syrup, proteins (derived from fatty domesticated and processed meats), refined grains, low fiber content, salt, and reduced consumption of fruits and vegetables [2]. The “modern” Western diet and lifestyle may have played an important etiological role in the pathogenesis of the metabolic syndrome and its consequences.”
Time Restricted Feeding TRF (intermittent fasting)- “The results of this analysis showed that TRE is an effective treatment strategy for patients who are overweight and obese. Participants using a TRE schedule lost bodyweight and showed a decrease in fat mass. TRE significantly lowered systolic blood pressure and glucose concentration. TRE also changed the lipid profiles of participants”
Added sugars- “In conclusion, very little scientific evidence exists that indicates a benefit of added dietary sugars; however, an overwhelming and growing body of evidence highlights the negative effects of excessive or prolonged sugar intake. This is particularly significant for fructose and high-fructose corn syrup.”.
" The NHS guidelines recommend that free sugars not make up more than 5% of calories from food or exceed 30 g per day." (Well below RDA?)
