Welcome to the Dr. Berg's Healthy Keto and Interminate Fasting Podcast, where Dr.

Berg takes you on the journey for the truth about getting healthy and losing healthy weight.

Now what is what is Dr. Berg talking about now eggs and butter actually helping your cholesterol

profile?

How can that be?

Of course, if you have familial hyperclestrolinemia, which is a genetic problem, this does not apply to

that sector of the population. Also, if you are what's called a hyper responder, this information

doesn't apply. But for everyone else, I think it does apply and just hear me out. So let's first

talk about the egg yolk. The egg yolk has one of the highest sources of cholesterol mobilizing

nutrients. Number one, co-lean, okay. And number two, less the thin. Both of these compounds help

you mobilize a cholesterol out of the body. And the thing you need to know about eggs, for example,

is that one egg gives you roughly about 186 milligrams of cholesterol. But you have to also

realize that your body makes cholesterol. It makes a lot. It makes like 3,000 milligrams of

cholesterol every single day. So if we look at 3,000 milligrams and 186 milligrams, there's a big

difference between those two. And in that egg yolk, mother nature has provided the mobilizers

of cholesterol. And I'm going to put a lot of data down below in studies. But dietary cholesterol,

which means the amount of cholesterol you're eating, is not associated with increasing your

cholesterol. And that's kind of a counterintuitive. But that's just a fact. Also, there is no study

that shows that consuming eggs negatively affect your cardiovascular system. Yet in one study,

which is a pretty interesting study, it was talking about the two phytonutrients in egg yolks,

lutein, and xiaxanthin, which happened to improve the cholesterol profile in the carbohydrate

restrictive group. So they looked at people on a low carb diet and how their cholesterol was
