For so long we were told that having low LDL cholesterol is the key to preventing heart disease, which led to doctors overprescribing statins to keep LDL low. Yet these drugs can introduce a whole host of problems including muscle damage, memory issues, Parkinson’s-like symptoms, and muscle aches and pains. We now know that statins can increase the risk of diabetes by about 50 percent. Even more concerning, is that statins don’t even work that well for preventing heart attacks, despite all the m

⚠️Please watch my video on lowering ldl without meds first! “But Dr. Obuobi! I do all of the things you discussed on your ‘how to lower your ldl without medications’ video, and my #cholesterol is still high! What now?” Well, now you need individualized care! This is a very nuanced topic, so much so that we have an entire subspecialty of #cardiology called #lipidology that focuses JUST on this. Narrowing all of the complexities into a 3 min video is simply not possible. Still, here is a brief ove

The current way doctors treat heart disease is misguided because they treat the risk factors not the causes. It's actually a little crazy. To think we can treat heart disease by lowering cholesterol, lowering blood pressure and lowering blood sugar with medication is like mopping up the floor while the sink overflows. There's a better way. In this week's House Call video I talk about the best way to truly prevent heart disease. Hint: It has a lot to do with getting to the root cause... Full Arti

New research is shattering everything we thought we knew about cholesterol, metabolic health, and chronic disease. Harvard MD/PhD @nicknorwitz joins me to reveal why skyrocketing LDL isn’t always dangerous, why metabolic dysfunction—not cholesterol—is driving today’s health crisis, and why personalized nutrition is the future of medicine. We dig into cutting-edge science you won’t hear from your doctor (yet)—including how broken metabolism links diabetes, Alzheimer’s, cancer, and depression…and

What’s my view on seed oils? The data isn’t completely clear, but here’s what we DO know... The largest randomized controlled trial ever done on this topic studied 9,000 people - not the tiny 30-person studies we usually see. Half got butter. Half got corn oil. The results were STRIKING: For every 30-point drop in LDL cholesterol from corn oil, the risk of death from heart attacks or strokes went up by 22%. This is the complete OPPOSITE of what we’re taught in medicine - that LDL is the “boogeym

We have all heard that the secret to living a long, healthy, heart disease-free life is lowering your cholesterol, but is that really true? The reality is, most of us have little understanding about our cholesterol levels in our blood and the whole topic is much more complicated than we thought. Moreover, the standard cholesterol testing is outdated because it doesn’t check for particle size and particle number, and this information is what is needed to tell what’s really going on with your chol
