Many people struggle to lose the physical weight because they fail to recognize it as a SYMPTOM of mental weight.You cannot lose your physical weight (for good) if you don’t first fix the thoughts that lead to the emotions that drive your eating and behaviors that control your weight.Trying to lose the physical weight without also losing the mental weight is like driving with one foot on the gas and the other on the break. You’ll burn yourself out and feel like you’ve gotten nowhere.Losing weight and getting healthy in 2023 is going to be a lot harder if you continue these 8 things you’ll learn in this episodeHighlights From This EpisodeStop going on a diet.

Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!This episode explains what a low carb diet does to LDL cholesterol. In it, I explain the difference between LDL-C (cholesterol) and LDL-P (particle number). One of the most common objections we hear about people not wanting to eat more animal products is a fear of their cholesterol going up. Much confusion exists over whether high LDL cholesterol is okay or not for your health. Often, physicians are prescribing statins based solely on total or LDL cholesterol numbers. This exposes people who may not actually need the medication to undesirable side effects including muscle aches, pain, fatigue, and increased insulin resistance. This video explains when that’s okay, and how to actually know your risk of cardiovascular disease besides relying on total cholesterol or LDL cholesterol. As you’ll learn, these are very poor indicators of your risk.Highlights From This EpisodeWhat is cholesterol?Difference between LDL-P (particles) and LDL-C (cholesterol).LDL Pattern A versus LDL Pattern B.Why LDL-P is more important than LDL-C when determining cardiovascular risk.Does high LDL cholesterol cause heart disease? + Why you shouldn’t accept a statin based solely on high total or LDL cholesterol.Common side effects of statins on muscles and insulin resistance.Why you don’t need to fear eating saturated fat.How to look at the research on low-fat diets.Why total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol go up on a low-carb diet.  Subscribe & ReviewSubscribing and leaving a rating and review are important factors in helping the Reshape Your Health Podcast and the YouTube Channel reach more people.
