Doc. This episode is just brilliant. You are a master communicator. I am on Repatha, but then found out that i have overactivity on the pcsk9 genes. Also on 5mg Rosuvastatin. Had to give up on Ezetimibe as it appeared to be causing colitis. I wonder if you have time to teach at your universities? You would be a wonderful asset.

@1:45 Nope no study say it causes the problem. classic mixup. If you were to check inflammation, sugar intake and diet the picture would change completely

Thank you for covering topics like this. It really gives me hope for what is possible in the next 10 to 15 years. I hope that techniques are found to decrease aging speed and to greatly increase our longevity.
