“Vegetarian children had lower total cholesterol, good HDL cholesterol, and serum vitamin B12 and vitamin D without sufficient supplementation. They also had higher glucose, bad VLDL cholesterol, and triglycerides, markers of poor cardiometabolic health.”

“The intervention also increased serum folate by 15 percent and reduced blood triglyceride levels by 25 percent. This study is the first randomized controlled trial to find that diet and lifestyle interventions may reverse epigenetic aging in healthy adult males.”

“The combined strategy reduced triglycerides and raised HDL cholesterol compared with vitamin D alone. Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D, the circulating form of vitamin D used to assess vitamin D status, increased with the combined approach versus control and exercise alone, but not versus vitamin D alone.”

“Blood sugar and measured blood fats, including triglycerides and cholesterol, were also similar. Xanthan gum may activate immune cells in the wall of the colon. Once activated, these cells can release proteins that attract additional immune cells into the tissue.”

“Each 10% reduction in visceral fat during the intervention was linked years later to a better insulin-resistance score and a healthier cardiometabolic risk score based on waist size, blood pressure, blood sugar, insulin, triglycerides, and HDL cholesterol.”

“At the molecular level, the treatments were linked to reduced activity in inflammation-related pathways, lower mTOR signaling (a central metabolic control pathway), and in standard-diet mice, increased protein persulfidation in the liver. In humans, higher plasma protein persulfidation was linked to stronger grip strength and lower triglyceride levels.”

“These assessments also included markers of insulin resistance, which reflects how well the body responds to insulin, and metabolic syndrome severity, which combines risk factors such as excess waist size, high blood pressure, elevated blood sugar, high triglycerides, and low high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol.”

“They also signal adipose tissue to break down triglycerides and release them into the bloodstream, subsequently facilitating the uptake and oxidation of fatty acids within the muscle tissue. ##Vigorous exercise promotes the production of lactate, bolstering cognitive function.”

Dr. Ronald Krauss discusses the role that LDL cholesterol plays in heart disease, dyslipidemia, and atherosclerosis.

“Alcohol, APOE e4, and Alzheimer’s APOE is a gene that instructs our body to make apolipoprotein E, which combines with lipids (cholesterol and triglycerides) to form lipoproteins. There are three variants or alleles of the APOE gene: APOE e2, APOE e3, and APOE e4.”
