The Oreo cookies lowered my LDL by 71% in just 16 days. I think the top 10 drugs only help like 1 to 4 to 1 in 10 people who take them.

First of all, thanks for having me. I'm very excited to be here and have this conversation. As for my backstory, I grew up in a household of both my parents are MD, PhDs, and I always wanted to do medicine and science. I was always fascinated by biological sciences. I always had high esteem for the medical profession. So that's always what I wanted to do, as long as I can remember.

That said, I had a very fluffy idea of what nutrition science really was. I think my understanding- Fluffy idea? A fluffy diminutive. It was kind of not real medicine. Yeah, it was one of those things where I think a lot of people still think, oh, I kind of know what healthy is. My plate, before that, the food pyramid, eat a balanced diet, eat your five a day. I would say a lot of platitudes.

but platitudes that people take as gospel. I generally felt that way as well. I kind of knew, or I thought I knew, what healthy was. You know, I eat my fruits and vegetables, not too much saturated fat, not too much salt, and then get enough energy to fuel my activities. And blessed or cursed, I don't know what you want to call it, I was a young person who never struggled with my weight.

I was a pretty athletic young person, so throughout college, high school and most of college, I really didn't think much about my diet. And then things took a little bit of a left turn for me at the end of college when I started to develop inflammatory bowel disease. Before that, I was known as like- Like colitis. Colitis, ulcerative colitis.

So what that looks like for people who don't know, sorry if this is a bit graphic, but bloody diarrhea 12 to 20 times a day. Yeah, no fun. No fun whatsoever. And it was a really big shift for me because before that I had no dietary restrictions. I was known as the trash compactor of the family and my friend group. And I loved adventurous eating. It was one of my favorite parts of traveling.
