#317: Understanding Diet & Heart Disease Risk

Find the podcast on your app of choice

This episode is a supplemental/follow-up episode to the ‘Diet & Cardiovascular Disease’ Series of Sigma Statements. If you have not read those statements, you can find them here:

1. Cholesterol, Lipoproteins & Lipids: Understanding CVD Risk
2. The Impact of Diet on Blood Lipids
3. How Diet Influences Heart Disease Risk

In this podcast Danny and Alan will be re-capping the main important points from each statement, in addition to addressing follow-up questions or potential conflicting points.

We’ll cover issues such as:

• Does ApoB testing make LDL-C irrelevant?
• “I heard PUFA/omega-6 increases inflammation and therefore should be restricted. Is this true?”
• Issues with the Sydney Diet Heart Study
• How does insulin resistance impact lipoportein levels?
• And more
