🩸 Cholesterol Doesn’t Clog Your Arteries — It Fixes the Damage That Sugar Does 🛠️

For decades, we were told a simple story:
“Cholesterol clogs your arteries.”
But the science is far more interesting — and honestly, the opposite is closer to the truth.

Here’s what actually happens inside your body:

🔥 1. Sugar and high-carb diets cause inflammation.
When your blood sugar spikes over and over, it damages the lining of your arteries. Tiny cracks, irritation, and inflammation begin to form.

🛠️ 2. Your body sends cholesterol to REPAIR those cracks.
Cholesterol acts like a biological “repair crew.”
It patches, seals, and stabilizes the damaged areas — the same way construction workers repair a road after damage.

🫀 3. Cholesterol is the response… not the cause.
Blaming cholesterol for artery plaque is like blaming firefighters for the fire.
They show up because there was damage — not because they caused it.

🍩 4. Sugar, seed oils, and ultra-processed carbs do far more damage than steak ever will.
Inflammation, insulin resistance, and oxidative stress — that’s what hurts your arteries.

🥩 5. That’s why people eating a carnivore or low-carb diet often see improved:
– Triglycerides
– HDL (“good”) cholesterol
– Inflammation markers
– Blood pressure
– Insulin levels
– Energy and weight management

Your body has been using cholesterol to keep you alive since the day you were born.
It builds hormones, repairs tissue, makes vitamin D, and keeps every cell functioning.

👉 Cholesterol isn’t the villain.
It’s the repairman trying to save you from a sugar-damaged system.

They will do anything to put him down. The average American reading these headlines will call him crazy and question why he is in charge of health. Those that know understand that he is right on so many topics. The American dietetic association is so outdated. These are the people who told everyone that eating eggs raise cholesterol. They vilified saturated fats and told everyone to consume trans fat and low fat foods, which is so detrimental to human health.

EXPERTS ARE WRONG.

While disease specific nutrition has its place, most conditions can be resolved by the consistent addressing of general, foundational concepts. Diet, movement, sleep. Healthy lifestyle choices. Day in, day out. No magic pill. No fancy treatment. Just consistent effort and a determination to make a change.

Studies reveal that processed sugars enter the bone marrow within 30-45 minutes of ingestion, suppressing immune system function for up to 12 hours.

Unlike natural sugars in fruits and vegetables, where fiber slows absorption and minimizes immune impact, processed sugars—found in items like sodas (25-40 grams per can)—are rapidly absorbed, triggering inflammatory responses that lead to chronic inflammation and weakened immunity.

Research, including a specific study on a 100-gram sugar dose, shows it significantly impairs neutrophils’ ability to combat bacteria and slows macrophages, which engulf pathogens, compromising the body’s first line of defense.

Additionally, sugar disrupts gut bacteria balance, heightening infection susceptibility, and undergoes glycation—attaching to proteins like antibodies—forming advanced glycation end products (AGEs) that may spur diseases.

It also depletes vital immune-supporting vitamins and minerals and increases physiological stress, further taxing the system. Moreover, sugar creates an environment conducive to bacterial and viral propagation, easing their spread.

The establishment warns of these cascading effects, supported by data from the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition linking high sugar intake to reduced phagocytic activity.

However, skepticism lingers—some effects’ magnitudes vary by individual metabolism, and long-term human trials are limited, suggesting while the risks are real, their severity may depend on overall diet and lifestyle, necessitating balanced consumption and further research.

Research from Johns Hopkins and the National Cancer Institute links regular broccoli consumption (3–5 servings/week) to reduced breast, prostate, and colon cancer risks. Cruciferous vegetables contain bioactive compounds that may help protect cells from DNA damage.
