ADVICE

Wind Down With Movement, Heat, Cold, And Breath

  • Use steady-state movement, sauna, cold exposure, and focused breathing to downregulate after high activation.
  • Prioritize rhythmic breathing and a brief meditative protocol before bed to facilitate sleep.
INSIGHT

LDL Shows Packaging Dysfunction, Not Just Diet

  • LDL reflects lipoprotein packaging and metabolic health more than dietary cholesterol intake.
  • Address body composition, alcohol, sleep, and fitness before assuming diet alone is the cause.
ADVICE

Track Labs And Use Fiber To Lower LDL

  • Track blood markers regularly and adjust diet, fiber, and saturated fat to manage LDL before drugs.
  • Aim for at least 15g fiber per 1000 calories and reduce saturated fat if LDL rises on high-fat diets.
