Fats Are Good! Learning HDL and LDL

One thing needs to be cleared up: eating fats are not bad for you. You were maybe told to stay away from fats so that you could keep your weight down. However, you may be doing more harm than good for your health. The good news is there is only one simple thing you need teach yourself. And that is the difference between good (HDL) and bad (LDL) fats.

Why Does My Body Need Fat?

To heal your relationship with fats, the first thing to know is fat helps the body absorb and be able to use vitamin A, vitamin D and vitamin E. These vitamins are only fat-soluble, which means they can only be absorbed with the help of fats. These vitamins are responsible for healthy hair, skin, nails, eyes, immune system and reproduction. Fats also help your body absorb some nutrients and produce important hormones.

If you have not had a healthy relationship with fats, and thus your health has suffered in your hormones, reproduction, hair, skin and nails, then you want to look into increasing your HDL, or good fat, in the body. Or the problem may not be your relationship with fats but the medications you have been taking. The medications to look at are

  • Beta blockers, a type of blood pressure medicine.
  • Anabolic steroids, including testosterone, a male hormone.
  • Progestins, which are female hormones that are in some birth control pills and hormone replacement therapy.
  • Benzodiazepines, sedatives that are often used for anxiety and insomnia.

If you are taking one of these and you have a very low HDL level, ask your doctor if you should continue to take them.

The Difference in Fats

HDL is the good fat in your body that you want to have in order for your body to be healthy and function properly. For example, most people with eczema have a low HDL. However, if their HDL is normal, then they should look into why their body is not absorbing the fat. Sometimes it may be that they need to take an enzyme.

LDL is the bad fat in the body that can cause problems. Our HDL levels naturally help to fight and break down the LDL in our body.

What Foods Have HDL and Which Have LDL?

This is where making a switch in your grocery list and recipes comes into play. Making simple changes in what you buy can make the biggest difference.

HDL foods: cold pressed oils (hemp seed oil, flax seed oil), avocados, young white coconuts, soaked raw nuts, nut butters, coconut butter, almonds.

LDL food: anything fried, animal fats, crisco, margarine, vegetable oil.

Make the Switch!

Olive oil, avocado oil, or coconut oil are good oils for cooking. When you buy these, make sure they are unrefined. The olive oil should say “cold pressed”. In recipes when it calls for vegetable oil, I use half coconut and half olive oil. I find that when I mix these the flavor of both is neutralized. In baking sweet breads I will use all coconut to add to the sweetness.

In cookies or recipes that call for crisco, I use butter, not margarine.

Lets talk about butter real quick: The grass-fed real butter is best (Annnnnd I just heard you say it’s too expensive…). Confession: I generally save the grass-fed real butter—I like Kerrygold—for toast or on bread, like if we are “eating” the butter. Costco is a much better way to buy, and although the price has doubled in the last couple years, it is still cheaper than $4 at the grocery store.

For the cookie and cake recipes, I use an organic regular butter, not the Kerrygold.

**Simply put: Leave the crisco, vegetable oil and margarine on the shelf. Switch your recipes and habits to the healthier options and watch your health change.

What are Healthy Levels of HDL and LDL?

A healthy range of HDL is above 60mg/dL. Let me tell you, most people I see are WAY below this. As a general population, our diets and traditions of foods and health have dented our HDL for generations. And this affects our hearts, hormones and reproduction.

For your LDL, a balanced range you want to keep it in is below 130 mg/dL. If you can balance these numbers together, then they will each fill their role and benefit your health. If you are looking to heal your cholesterol naturally, it is a simple process.

Signs of Testosterone Excess… I haven’t forgo Signs of Testosterone Excess…

I haven’t forgotten about the men, they experience unbalanced hormones too!

Watch for:
💚Oily acne from testosterone thickening the skin and increasing sebum secretions.
💚Insomnia and difficulty sleeping, nervousness, headaches, head hair loss but increase body hair. 
💚Increase in LDL (bad fat), reduced HDL (good fat), stiff low back, persistent erections. 
💚Overall emotions leading to anger, frustration, irritability, and excess sexual energy.
💚This excess puts stress on the liver, which has to detoxify these hormones. 

❗DO NOT self medicate with drugs and alcohol for your stress levels. This puts further strain on the liver.

Have you ever wondered if your adrenals are shot? Have you ever wondered if your adrenals are shot? 

Adrenal deficiency means the adrenals have worked too hard and too fast for way too long. NOTE: It takes a long time for adrenals to crash and most of the time people have nervous system burnout (low fat and cholesterol numbers, dryness, no energy) before their adrenals are totally wiped. 

➡️Increase your: Omegas, Coconut oil and Ghee

Do you have friends & family with birthdays coming Do you have friends & family with birthdays coming up?? It’s a big season for my family 🥳TAG your favorite Taurus ♉️ and let them read how awesome they are.
•So what is a TAURUS about?! Taurus season is from April 21 to May 21. It rules over the neck, throat, vocal cords, thyroid, lymph’s in the neck, tonsils, ears and upper back area. This is where sickness & stress will tend to hit you when you get out of
b a l a n c e; the areas to pay special attention to. Having all options of throat remedies on hand is a very good idea.
•Taurus individuals are about stability & consistency. As the sign of Peace in the Zodiac and ruled by Venus- the planet of Love, they are the foodies of the zodiac and very loyal people. They value loyalty in a relationship the most & are very grounded & practical. Taurus have a strong sense of personal values, with a reliable, industrious and consistent temperament. Taurus also represents physical possessions, and feelings of self worth and self-assurance. They are kind, gentle, humble and loving. And they can be gifted in music with it being the key in their healing.
•When out of balance emotionally/mentally a Taurus will tend to greed, stubbornness, and inflexibility, possessiveness and jealousy- these are all signs of a rigid state of mind. It’s hard for them to see outside of the box. This can lead to poor self image & low self-esteem & can lead to potential eating disorders. They mistake the seeking of inner peace & security by outer attainment of possessions, food, money, cars houses etc
•Instead bring balance with sound & NATURE. As the first earth sign in the zodiac, it is very important for them to be directly connected to nature. Forest bathing can make your trip into the mountains a more mindful experience & one that reminds you of a simple truth: nothing is ever stagnant. Change is constant. Hearing all of the sounds of the forest can bring you back to yourself & bring you the peace you seek inside. Singing can help clear up & harmonize your throat area & sound therapy is a good healing modality as well.
•Studies have been done showing that Taurus is one of the longest live signs because their vitality burns low & slow!
