Eating Fat Doesn’t Increase Your blood Fat Research: Timestamps: 0:00 The egg yolk and butter myth 0:37 How vitamins K2 and D work together 1:30 Egg yolk benefits 2:25 Butter benefits In this video, I want to talk about egg yolks and butter. Many people believe that egg yolks and butter are really bad for you—that they will cause clogged arteries and heart attacks. But that’s just not true. Egg yolks and butter will not harm you if they are grass-fed. In fact, these foods are not the real culprit in clogged cholesterol arteries. Sugar is the real problem. It’s the sugar that converts to cholesterol, not the fats. Butter and egg yolks supply the vitamin K2 necessary to keep your arteries free of soft-tissue calcium. Vitamin D helps transport calcium into the blood, and vitamin K2 helps transport the calcium into the bones. Without enough vitamin K2, you can have more calcium build up in your arteries. This contributes to clogged arteries. Vitamin K1 is also beneficial. However, this nutrient is only plant-based. Vitamin A in butter is 3x more effective than fish oils, and vitamin D in butter is 100x more effective than commercial vitamin D.
