********CRITIQUES, RULES, AND NOTES********

Be aware of the following rules before posting comments:
- Please do not post summaries of the video in the comments - it damages retention on the video and YouTube is less likely to promote it (these videos cost me a lot of money to produce).

Critiques of my work are welcome! Please be aware of the following notes & rules before submitting critique:

Be mindful that this content is not all encompassing on the subject at hand and is self-limited for brevity to reach a wider audience. Also, be aware that I receive hundreds of YouTube comments per day, so the only way your critique can be considered is if you follow the steps outlined below. Finally, YouTube auto-deletes links, so I do not see most comments with links attached.

RULES:
If your comment is rude, you will be banned.
If your comment is not about the studies/topics at hand (i.e. extending to other outcomes not discussed) or offers critique with no scientific basis, it is unlikely to receive a response.

If you can follow these rules, I will try to address your critique and if there is merit, I will add an AMENDMENT to the content in question and pin it so everyone can see it (thank you!).

Mindsip insights from this episode:

Guide immune cells from plaque using CCR7 protein

A protein called CCR7 can guide immune cells out of the plaque and into the lymphatic system, much like a plane being guided by runway lights.

#immune-system

#plaque

Utilize DHA to reduce immune cell adhesion in inflammation

In a pro-inflammatory environment, the omega-3 fat DHA shows a strong dose-response reduction in the adhesion proteins that allow immune cells to invade plaque.

#DHA

#inflammation

Reduce artery stickiness with omega-3 fats

Omega-3 fats reduce 'adhesion molecules' on artery walls, making it harder for immune cells to grab on and invade the plaque.

#artery

#omega-3

Address unstable arterial plaque to combat inflammation

Dangerous arterial plaque is often unstable because it's bloated with immune cells that have become pro-inflammatory in a failed attempt to clear out cholesterol.
