You've heard of cholesterol, HDL, LDL and triglycerides, but what does all of that really mean? In this episode, I sit down with Megan Lyons, to learn the ins and outs of cholesterol. We're digging into the connection between cholesterol and blood sugar, how cholesterol affects cognitive health, and how to effectively and realistically manage our cholesterol through simple lifestyle tweaks that won't completely disrupt our lives.

In this episode, you'll learn more about:

  • What are HDL, LDL, Triglycerides (and why should we care)
  • The connection between cholesterol and blood sugar
  • How fat and gluten impact brain health
