Some Cardiologists Agree – It’s not all about cholesterol

 

Here’s a good summary of a recent call-in show I hosted on KGNU-Boulder — Shelley
. . . From Dr. Jeff Gerber’s blog

Jamie Doucet, MD is a local Cardiologist from Boulder Colorado who actually knows a thing or two about nutrition and heart disease prevention.  I (Jeff Gerber) had a chance to meet with Dr. Doucet along withStephen Parcell, ND on KGNU (Boulder, CO) live radio 2/21/13.We had a great discussion looking at many diets, including Low Fat, Mediterranean, Low Carb High Fat, Ancestral, Paleo and Safe Starch.Dr. Doucet understands the relationship between refined and processed foods, inflammation, oxidative stress, cholesterol and atherogenesis. He agrees that cholesterol is probably the innocent bystander.Listen to the entire radio broadcast here. This show is part five of the Heart Attack Chronicles series produced by Shelley Schlender.
