Jimmy Moore, host of Livin La Vida Low Carb, joins Jon and Debbie to talk all about his new book, “Cholesterol Clarity: What The HDL Is Wrong With My Numbers?” We talk about why your total cholesterol numbers may not be as important in determining your health as your doctor may think, the undeniable negative role chronic inflammation plays in your health, why triglycerides are really the health marker you should be looking and, why consuming saturated fat is good and why insulin and carbohydrates are really the two things that give cholesterol a bad rap.
Its another great conversation! We also answer some listener questions. JC Harris wants to know about short distance races and nutrition requirements for them. Sam poses the question “Only have 1 hour to train…what do you choose.” Simba wants to know about what kind of training program it would take to qualify for Vegas or Kona for age grouper 50-55? Finally, Kevin asks about how we use UCAN to fuel for an Ironman. Link to Jimmy’s book on Amazon.
