Dr. Anthony Jay | Is Sugar the Real Driver of Heart Disease?
For decades, cholesterol has been positioned as the enemy when it comes to heart disease. High LDL, clogged arteries, cardiovascular risk. But what if we've been focusing on the wrong thing?
In this episode, I sit down with Anthony Jay to explore the ideas behind his new book Sugar Beat and why he believes insulin resistance, chronically elevated blood sugar, and glycation deserve far more attention in the cardiovascular conversation.
We unpack what LDL actually does, why Anthony describes it as a "fat taxi," and how the concept of the "starving heart" changes the way we think about fuel and heart health.
If you've been told that protecting your heart is simply about lowering cholesterol and eating less fat, this conversation will challenge that model and give you a very different way to think about metabolic and cardiovascular health.
