Is high cholesterol always a problem? | Nick Norwitz, PhD
Manage episode 430371110 series 2412990
Episode #323. Oreo cookies or statins – which is more effective in reducing LDL cholesterol? The results from one study might surprise you. Join me as I sit down with Oxford PhD graduate and Harvard Medical student Dr Nick Norwitz to discuss the lipid energy model, what it has to do with Oreos, and how different diets affect your health.
You’ll learn about Dr Norwtiz’s health journey, including his experience with inflammatory bowel disease and the ketogenic diet. We discuss cholesterol management and cardiovascular disease risk, lean mass hyper-responders, and statins. This episode is an important and informative reflection on scientific curiosity and misinformation.
Specifically, we discuss:
- Introduction (00:00:00)
- The Importance of Curiosity in Scientific Progress (04:39)
- Exploring the Oreo vs. Statin Experiment on Lean Mass Hyper Responders (08:52)
- Scientific and Clinical Impact of the Oreo Study (25:03)
- Addressing Criticisms and Misinterpretations of the Study (34:47)
