My Cholesterol Doubled On A Vegan Diet… As Predicted

In this video, I share the surprising results of an experiment where I transitioned from a junk food, Standard American Diet (SAD) to a plant-based, vegan keto diet – as predicted. My LDL cholesterol skyrocketed from 97 to 215 mg/dL in just one week! I’ll explain why this happened using the Lipid Energy Model, show exactly what I ate on both diets, and discuss some unexpected personal challenges along the way.

[IMPORTANT UPDATE – Last week we announced our documentary, The Cholesterol Code, will be premiering February 7th, 2025 in Las Vegas, NV at our charity fundraising conference CoSci, for more information visit CholesterolCodeMovie.com]
