Daniel Trevor | "This Is Making Us Sick & Fat!" - Signs You're Not Healthy & The Cause Of Disease KKP: 763

Metabolic Freedom With Ben Azadi

Today, I am blessed to have Daniel Trevor here with me. He is a citizen scientist and serial entrepreneur who has created several start-up businesses, including a high-tech CTI (computer-telephony integration) company that grew to over 300 employees.

He also created and marketed anti-aging products and produced TV & Radio infomercials, hiring celebrities as spokespersons, as well as hosting some himself.

Daniel also spent time as a real estate investor and developer, a financial newsletter writer & analyst, as well as a professional day trader of precious metal mining and gas & oil stocks.

Being familiar with analyzing technical data throughout his life, he was comfortable taking a dive into medical and nutritional science to reverse his heart disease after a surprising heart attack. Lean and symptom-free, he thought he was "Mr. Healthy."

In reality, he was an undiagnosed Type 2 diabetic, which was the cause of his undiagnosed heart disease, fatty liver disease, and osteoporosis. Using the research in his How-to book, he was able to reverse all four silent conditions.

Daniel describes himself as "just a lower-class street kid from Philly," is the Founder & CEO of NutraNuva Anti-Aging Science, has two beautiful daughters, and lives in Southern California.

In this episode, we dive into metabolic health, dissecting prevalent myths surrounding diet, plaque formation, and cardiovascular health. Daniel underscores the necessity of distinguishing between different types of plaque, shedding light on the dangers of soft plaque. He critiques historical dietary recommendations and advocates for a reevaluation based on scientific evidence. Lifestyle factors such as smoking and diet are explored in their detrimental effects on arterial health, with a particular focus on the impact of high fructose corn syrup. Challenging conventional wisdom, Daniel redefines the role of cholesterol, emphasizing nuanced assessments and the importance of comprehensive testing. He also addresses profit-driven motives in healthcare decisions, advocating for informed choices. Tune in as we chat about specialized cardiovascular tests and their implications, with a clarification of the CAC paradox.

[14:00] Metabolic Health: Navigating Plaque, Dietary Myths, and Health Narratives

- Daniel highlights the importance of metabolic health; understanding metabolic markers and inflammation is crucial for overall health.

- He dives into the significance of differentiating between soft plaque and calcified plaque in the context of heart disease.

- Daniel provides historical context, discussing the origins of dietary recommendations and the impact of figures like Ancel Keys. He critiques the shift towards low-fat, high-carb diets and its correlation with rising rates of obesity and diabetes.

- He challenges prevailing health narratives, suggesting that mistaken beliefs about dietary fat and cholesterol may have contributed to the obesity and diabetes epidemics. Daniel advocates for critical reevaluation of health advice based on evolving scientific understanding.

[20:45] The Impact of Lifestyle Factors on Arterial Health

- Daniel explains how smoking and specific dietary components like carbohydrates, sugars, and oils can damage the glycocalyx, the protective layer lining artery walls. This damage compromises the glycocalyx's ability to defend against harmful LDL particles, leading to plaque buildup and inflammation.

- He emphasizes the importance of assessing inflammation markers to gauge arterial health accurately. Daniel underlines the need for comprehensive testing to evaluate cardiovascular risk.

- Daniel shares his personal experience of being undiagnosed with type 2 diabetes and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), highlighting the importance of understanding and addressing these conditions. He reveals the elevated GGT (gamma-glutamyl transferase) levels associated with NAFLD, underscoring its significance as a predictor of cardiovascular risk and all-cause mortality.

- Hidden Dangers of High Fructose Corn Syrup (HFCS): Daniel points out the detrimental effects of HFCS on liver health, citing his own experience of unknowingly consuming it in various food products.

[29:00] Redefining Cholesterol: Navigating Longevity and Arterial Health

- Daniel challenges the conventional wisdom surrounding cholesterol, highlighting research suggesting that higher cholesterol levels may be associated with longevity. In comparison, lower levels may be linked to increased mortality, particularly from cancer.

- He emphasizes the importance of understanding the nuances of cholesterol, including differentiating between pattern A and pattern B LDL particles.

- He stresses the significance of assessing specific markers, such as small dense LDL particles, to evaluate arterial health accurately.

- Daniel advocates for comprehensive testing, including the NMR LipoProfile, to better understand cardiovascular risk factors.

[39:30] Profit over Health: Industry Priorities and Advocating for Informed Healthcare Decisions

- Daniel highlights how industries prioritize profits over human well-being, creating addictive foods and promoting unnecessary medical procedures for financial gain. He underscores the need to recognize these profit-driven motives in shaping health recommendations and decisions.

- Daniel points out the significant financial incentives tied to invasive medical procedures, with the majority performed for non-emergency reasons.

- He suggests that eliminating unnecessary procedures could threaten the livelihoods of certain healthcare professionals and institutions heavily invested in these practices.

- He advocates for individuals to educate themselves about the efficacy of medical interventions, such as invasive procedures, by referencing scientific studies and seeking second opinions from reputable healthcare providers.

[44:30] Cardiovascular Testing: Specialized Assessments and Understanding the CAC Paradox

- Daniel highlights the significance of specialized tests, such as the echolucent plaque and coronary artery calcium (CAC) scan, in assessing cardiovascular health.

- He emphasizes the need to go beyond traditional cholesterol tests and consider factors like soft plaque accumulation, which is a significant contributor to heart attacks and strokes.

- He explains the CAC paradox, where individuals may see an increase in their CAC score despite adopting healthier lifestyles. Daniel clarifies that this increase in calcium deposits may indicate a positive response to lifestyle changes, as the body lays down calcium to stabilize arteries affected by soft plaque.

- He advocates for patient education on the nuances of cardiovascular testing, encouraging individuals to seek information from reputable sources like the Cleveland Clinic and the American College of Cardiology.

[56:40] Empowering Health through Online Resources

- Daniel expresses gratitude for discovering experts in the health and wellness field who provided valuable insights and information he previously lacked.

- He emphasizes the importance of seeking reputable sources to learn effective healing methods.

- Daniel highlights the power of online platforms, particularly YouTube, in connecting individuals with experts and valuable information.

- He acknowledges the role of digital resources in empowering individuals to take control of their health and well-being.
