After seeing over 10,000 patients with elevated LDL, one pattern kept showing up more consistently than diet quality, more than family history, more than age itself. And once I started specifically looking for this pattern, I could not stop seeing it.

Today I walk you through exactly what this pattern is, why it drives LDL upward in a way that a lot of cholesterol advice completely ignores, and the specific, proven strategies for addressing it so you can start lowering your own LDL today.

You'll learn:
✔️ The pattern I noticed in thousands of patients that has nothing to do with how much fat they eat
✔️ What your liver loses the ability to do when this pattern takes hold
✔️ Why two people with the identical LDL number can carry completely different risk
✔️ The one measurement your standard lipid panel was never designed to show you
✔️ The type of fat that feeds this process most directly, and how to go after it
✔️ The overlooked nightly habit that quietly works against your cholesterol

Dr. Mitch Rice, DO (Doctor Mitch) is a board certified family medicine physician focused on helping adults reverse insulin resistance, slow aging, and protect the organs that matter most.

I’m SOOO happy to have found your channel, Dr Mitch! You hit the nail on the head in short segments that makes it easy for lay people to follow AND understand, and you’re debunking all the incorrect information that the mainstream medical complex and BIG PHARMA have been pushing on us for decades.

I am so happy I ran across your video. My doctor said my Ldl was high and talked about using meds. I will try the Bergamot first to see if it will work for me. Also I love that you give us scripture from the Bible along with a little music. You play so well. Have a Blessed Day

One word. Sugar. It's half fructose and we have WAY TOO MUCH in our diet. Fructose has to go to your liver to be processed and gets stored as fat if you have too much. You can completely eliminate sugar from your diet and live quite well. The huge increase in fatty liver, obesity and metabolic illness directly coincided with the "fat scare" of the 70s and 80s and food manufacturers removing fat and putting sugar in EVERYTHING

@TheDotDetective 13 hours ago (edited)

This has been known for a couple of decades by now. Introduction of high fructose corn syrup into the American diet has brought this information to the forefront. If you tell this to your internal medicine doctor, they wont understand what your talking about and will continue to push statins. Go on a Mediterranean diet or stop starches and high sugar fruits/foods and see how much better you'll feel. Add psyllium husk to daily routine and see that ldl count drop. Go for walks in a GREEN filled environment aka as woods. The only peopkle who dont have stress are dead. Manage stress with breaks in nature. Japanese have a study on greenery walks.

I LOVE the focus on common sense and root causes of serious issues like high VLDL and Apo B. Early this year, I put together my own strategy for health improvement and at the center was to reduce/eliminate visceral fat. I've been using all of your tips and making positive changes in diet/exercise/sleep. I feel amazing and empowered! Comprehensive lab tests exhibit great improvement. I wish most doctors had this approach to correct diet and lifestyle isses BEFORE prescribing drugs. Many thanks again Dr. Rice! 😊😊👍👍

Good video. Thanks!

I am interested in hearing more of your thoughts on metabolically healthy people who nevertheless have high cholesterol. You mentioned that you don't think such people necessarily need cholesterol-lowering treatment, and I'd love to hear you explore this topic in more detail.

My LDL is 118. I just had a cath because I was experiencing chest pain. I can't afford expensive supplements. I did order a soluble fiber supplement.
I see the doctor in two weeks. I vaguely remember the doctor coming in and telling me he didn't find much.

GLP 1s actually increase insulin so so much for that theory

Niacin. The flushing version.

For the past few months, I have been making an effort to reduce the saturated fat in my diet, and my LDL cholesterol went UP. I know that I am probably insulin resistant, when they checked my fasting insulin level it was 43! Thank you for the information Dr. Rice

@vince1229 11 hours ago

Perhaps elevated LDL is normal.

You are my favourite, non-AI person. 🤭 🤗

If you look at the 2020 Denmark study of 108,000 subjects (Published in the BMJ) that found that after adjusting all variables, both low, AND high levels of LDL resulted in the highest levels of mortality.. the lowest all cause mortality was found at 3.6mmol/L.. the sweet spot. So with my LDL at 3.3mmol/L, looks like I can start bulking up on ice cream and burgers!

Cut back on the carbs, refined carbs and sugars. No more gluttony of the carbs. They taste good but too many are not good for your system especially when we are very sedentary
