Dr Stella Immanuel, hydroxychloroquine and our BANNED videos
Dr. Stella Immanuel's now banned hydroxychloroquine video led me to publish a fact-check that was also banned! An objective look at Dr. Stella Immanuel's statements, hydroxychloroquine and COVID. Can we all get on the same page re: hydroxychloroquine? My video on Dr. Stella Immanuel has been banned. Dr. Stella Immanuel's press conference on hydroxychloroquine and COVID went viral but video was banned. I published a fact check of Dr. Stella immanuel’s statements but it was also taken down Let's address the hydroxychloroquine controversy and Dr. Immanuel's views most of the coverage of Dr. Stella immanuel focused on her supernatural beliefs. But we should focus on the science. dr immanuel has also dismissed dissenting views, calling studies showing no benefit of hydroxychloroquine "fake science” different sources generate different views. the same is happening with hydroxychloroquine we'll cover hydroxychloroquine alone vs in combination I can ask if people who took hydroxychloroquine do better. But there are many uncertainties In this study, COVID patients treated with hydroxychloroquine had lower mortality. but the group that received hydroxychloroquine might have been healthier to begin with. the patients hydroxychloroquine had fewer risk factors for heart disease. hydroxychloroquine patients were also more likely to be given steroids, which are effective against Covid-19. Combo: hydroxychloroquine + azithromycin + zinc most RCTs look at hydroxychloroquine alone or with azithromycin. So people have said, ok, hydroxychloroquine hasn’t been effective in the RCTs but maybe the triple combo works so we know hydroxychloroquine alone or combined with azithromycin has shown mixed results in observational trials and RCTs do not support a benefit In the conditions tested For the triple combo, the observational evidence is encouraging and RCTs are coming if anybody says “we know hydroxychloroquine doesn’t work, period. in any condition, any context, we just know it”. that’s not true. But it’s just as misleading to say that “hydroxychloroquine works” or to call it a “cure” David Katz video: hydroxychloroquine has side effects. someone at high risk for COVID might justify the risks of hydroxychloroquine (in triple combo) Connect with me: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DrGilCarvalho/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/NutritionMadeS3 Animations: Even Topland @toplandmedia References: https://www.ijidonline.com/article/S1201-9712(20)30534-8/fulltext https://www.cnn.com/2020/07/31/health/hydroxychloroquine-study-henry-ford-letters/index.html https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa2019014 https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.05.02.20080036v1 https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-8309337/Zinc-hydroxychloroquine-effective-COVID-19-patients-study.html https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.05.02.20080036v1 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6xqCg12rOPM Disclaimer: The contents of this video are for informational purposes only and are not intended to be medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment, nor to replace medical care.

Scientist Answers: do Eggs raise your Cholesterol??
Do eggs raise our cholesterol? Why are eggs, cholesterol and heart disease so controversial? A look at the evidence and sources of confusion on eggs, dietary and blood cholesterol. A lot of you asked about eggs and cholesterol. There’s a lot of confusion around eggs so let's focus on whether eggs raise blood cholesterol. Eggs have a lot of cholesterol but does that mean eating them raises my cholesterol levels? College students ate a large egg every day for three weeks and ended up with higher LDL-cholesterol, that’s the ‘bad’ cholesterol. Maybe they ate something else that raised their cholesterol? Can we give people eggs without them even knowing it? Scientists gave people egg or egg substitute (four times less cholesterol). When people start off with eggs their blood cholesterol level shoots up, switch them to the substitute, their cholesterol drops. If we start them off with the egg substitute cholesterol goes down a bit from baseline, switch to real eggs, cholesterol shoots up (and volunteers didn’t know when they were eating egg) Meta-analyses confirm eating cholesterol tends to raise our blood cholesterol levels. But the effect of food on our cholesterol level depends on context. If your cholesterol levels are low, the more cholesterol you eat, everything else being equal, the higher your blood cholesterol level will tend to go. But as you get to higher blood levels, the effect peters out. Let’s say i want to prove that eggs don’t affect blood cholesterol levels. How can I do the experiment to get that result? 1) Take someone who already eats a lot of cholesterol and has high blood cholesterol, and ask if adding a little bit more in their diet makes a difference? Probably not 2) compare eggs to something that also raises cholesterol. Like red meat or butter (high in saturated fat). My cholesterol level is affected by the cholesterol I eat, but also saturated fat, unsaturated fats, fiber etc. 3) acknowledge that LDL-cholesterol goes up with eggs but argue that’s fine because HDL-Cholesterol also goes up. if you saw our video on LDL and HDL you may remember raising HDL-cholesterol doesn’t affect heart disease risk so this argument is not compelling The egg industry funds many of the studies. So eggs raise our cholesterol levels in general. Is it okay to eat eggs or not? Example A: good health, great cholesterol levels, eats an egg here and there because he likes it. B: lipids are out of whack, high cholesterol, eats five eggs a day because he thinks he “needs the protein”. So are eggs good or bad? Eggs aren’t necessary but it’s also not true that if your diet includes some eggs it’s automatically unhealthy. I don’t eat eggs personally but at the end of the day it’s less about specific foods and more about the overall dietary pattern. A diet high in saturated fat and cholesterol will raise your cholesterol, with or without eggs, and a diet high in fiber and unsaturated plant fats will have the opposite effect, even if you sometimes eat eggs. People often ask about Egg whites. In all likelihood they won’t raise your blood cholesterol as much (they lack the fat and cholesterol fraction). But when people ask about egg whites it’s often rooted in the notion that we need massive amounts of protein from specific foods like eggs. So if you eat egg whites here and there because you enjoy them and you’re generally healthy I don’t see a problem but if you’re slamming egg whites as a staple source of protein because you’re stressing out about getting enough protein, chances are you don’t need to. our society’s protein fixation is not conducive to health. In this video we covered LDL, HDL and what they mean and this one goes over the best foods your cholesterol.

I heard a lot about James Cameron’s pea protein business… Like I said, I think game changers makes some important points but I also disagree with several things in there We gotta keep in mind, it’s a movie. Its fine to watch it, but our main source of life and death info, like nutrition, shouldn’t be movies, documentary or not, with industry ties or not. I guess that's why James Cameron is a movie maker and im not. My movies would be really boring Disclaimer: The Information in this video is for informational purposes only and is not intended to be medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment, nor to replace medical care.
