If your cholesterol is creeping up and you’ve been told to avoid eggs or cut the fat, you’re not alone. But here’s the truth most people never hear: in prediabetes and type 2 diabetes, high cholesterol is not caused by fat you might eat, it’s a sign of deeper metabolic dysfunction.

In this episode, Dr. Jedha breaks down how insulin resistance alters your cholesterol profile and why standard tests often miss the full picture. You’ll learn what diabetic dyslipidemia really is, how high triglycerides, low HDL, and small dense LDL particles form, and what actually works to turn those numbers around.

We’ll also cover which tests are worth requesting, what your triglyceride to HDL ratio says about your health, and the key steps to lower cholesterol naturally, without unnecessary medications.
