Quite a few people in the comments are asking why most people seek out a low carb lifestyle. I went low carb after barely bumping into pre-diabetes. Then cholesterol increased and Dr. was pushing me to take statins. My HDL was 98 with Trigs low at 56 so I knew my HDL/Trig ratio indicated low risk of CVD and I refused the Statin. These LMHR videos (and a low calcium score) gave me the confidence to refuse statins. THANK YOU FOR YOUR WORK!! PS: Glucose is now normal because of the low-carb diet.

It is, although I wish they weren't so focused on the cholesterol lowering drugs. I think looking at the thyroid, the T3 issue would be a good idea Not sure how much they've delved into it, but sounds like they are assuming a 'normal' TSH means someone isn't hypothyroid and that is not true. High LDL (really high) has always been associated with hypothyroid. If t3 is low.. perhaps T3 supplementation would be an easy intervention to try with less nasty side effects than statins and that drug that begins with Z :)

I’m low carb for a long time, I’m menopausal, on HRT, I exercise to an extreme, do intermittent fasting, eat saturated fats and my BMI last checked was 23 but I lost weight since then. I’m not LMHR due to my triglycerides. I will get my plaque checked at some point but wondered about anyone’s thoughts here. Oh Both parents were on statins but who knows if that was necessary.

Hi - I am also a post menopausal woman, so interested in your experience. FYI, there is also 'non HDL or LDL ' cholesterol, so the subtracting the HDL from total won't give the exact LDL number, although it would still be high no doubt (and probabably not too far off). You are close to LMHR, though :) How long have you been doing keto/carnivore? If not too long, maybe your TG will continue to go down? Mine were low to start with, and stayed exactly the same. I'm also interested in your HRT experience. How is your thyroid? I'm 63, BMI 17, LDL 311, HDL 118, TG 53 A1C 5.4 I'm sure I'm hypothyroid but fool doc i'm working with now wouldn't do labs. I have all the symptoms, I did before, and now worse; Hypo T is associated with high LDL. How are you feeling? At least for me, I think the thyroid is a big issue. TSH is not always a reliable marker, not sure if these guys have delved much into the thyroid world, i hope they do. In my 4 months on carnivore - I feel worse - less energy, gaining weight -not good weight, fat around my abdomen, so my bmi is probably a bit higher now, but still considered low, and I am so cold. So, in my case, I think I need some T3, but I also wonder about the other hormones. I honestly don't care about the cholesterol, but my doc will have a heart attack!!! I just want to feel good. And yes, everyone is put on statins after a certain age, or if cholesterol is high. I don't think they are ever a good idea, but that is my personal opinion. In fact, ppl with higher cholesterol live longer and have less disease - however I'm not sure about these 'super high" LDLs. I just got these labs, and am trying to figure it out. People don't talk much here on YT, I'm on twitta/x with this same name, there is some discussion there, and you can also DM me if you want to talk and compare notes!

Dr. Attia has said that there are various statins to try, if his pt. Is experiencing side effects on one - switch to another and many times the alternate will not create side effects. Also, aside from statins there are PCSK9 inhibitors to reduce LDL with generally no side effects. (c/b pricey, though, if your insurance provider nixes it as an alternate).

I am intrigued by the study. My guess is LMHR were healthy people to begin with. So such a low level of TG, LDL of 123 means they were insulin sensitive, no diabetics I presume. Similarly because of low to zero calcification I assume they were non-smokers as well and chances of not having hypertension. I know these are not mutually exclusive but it seems that was a group without metabolic disease and fairly healthy. What motivated them to follow Keto diet for 4+years which is very extreme diet and hard to follow?

Hi! this is a great question! I'm just one, and I can answer for me! I was quite metabolically healthy prior to carnivore (4 months in).. LDL 139, HDL 136, TG 53, BMI 17. I didn't have fasting insulin testing, but based on everything and thriving on high carb diet, I think I was insulin sensitive. no issues with blood sugar. No smoker, BP normal, etc. I had horrible GI issues,/pain after a gall bladder surgery 10 years ago, and exreme fatigue, secondary to that. I did suspect hypo thyroid & did a lot of research, but doc not open minded. tried keto/carnivore after hearing so many stories of people healing from things like that. My issues were disabling (won't go into gory detail), but stopped working, no social life. I would try anything, b/c nothing else has helped. Just got my labs and all those numbers stayed about the same except LDL jumped to 311. My doctore has called me in for a 'consult'. I'm having labs drawn, but in my case, I think the thyroid is an issue - those symptoms have gotton worse, Instead of more energy that everyone talks about with carnivore, I have less, I am cold , dec body temps (old school way of monitoring thyroid). ,and gaining weight (unwanted). I think these guys are dismissing the thyroid issue - b/c back in the old days, high chol was considered a sign of hypoT, and treated accordingly. I think that was scrubbed from education when pharma decided to push statins. Anyway, that' s my story. My plan/experiment is to supplement T3 - hopefully I will feel better and it will bring LDL down. I'd like to find a doc to help me .., but as we all know, it's hard. I might be using my mail order meds from another country and doing it on my own.. I just am unsure about the dose :)

I don't think the thyroid issue should be downplayed! Back before statins, high LDL was considered a sign of hypothyroidism, and was treated with thyroid supplementation! Now Drs. only rely on numbers, and don't look at clinical symptoms, including body temp measurements. TSH is NOT always a good indictor, b/c it can be normal with low T3, the active hormone. I know I am an N of 1 but I had low t3 with normal TSH before carnivore ;with symptoms. 4 months in, my hypo symptoms are much worse, and I am steadily gaining (unwanted weight). I am LMHR - LDL jumped from 139 to 311, HDL 118, TG 53, A1C 5.4 BMI 16.8 when started but hight now b/c I've gained about 10 lbs (not muscle). I would like to try T3 supplementation - I would feel better and potentially bring down LDL. Worth a try. Looking for a doc to work with me.

I'm experimenting. I have zero desire to go on medication for it. My next appt is june where dr will also test fh and c-reactive. Dr knows my lack of desire to go on a statin...or anything, but the cancer drug may up my cholesterol. I did have a CT of my chest and it picked up "very mild" calcification and IDK how much this will add to her recommendation. My BMI 2 years ago was into the 35. I was on keto and my numbers were 188tot col, 62 trig, 76 hdl, 100 ldl. Now, off keto, my numbers at 24bmi on the medication: 205 tc, 76 trig, 72hdl, 118 ldl.

I assume i'm using protein for gluconeogeneis. My energy has tanked. My theory (everyone has one, lol) is that it is the thyroid. My fool doc wouldn't test , but i"m doing on my own). In the old days, very high LDL was considered sign of hypothyroid. We know on keto/carnivore thyroid , esp T3 tends to go down. If ppl aren't symptomatic, that 's okay and I believe modern docs have forgotten a lot about the thyroid (b/c there are more profitable drugs to treat LDL). My hypothyroid symptoms have worsed - no energy, gaining weight, cold, low body temps (a great way to monitor thyroid). I believe the thyroid suppression could be contributing. Of course I can't rule out the fat. I did eat a lot of saturated fat before though. So it could be that , but I do know if the thyroid isn't optimal.. nothing works right. So ,how do you feel Elizabeth? I guess if you don't have symptomes, this might just be me, but i'm going to to try T3 supplement, I hope I can find a doc to help b/c I don't really know about dosage, and if I should also do T4. It does make me wonder though if T supplementation wouldn't be worth a try for all LMHRs! It is fairly benign - if you feel bad, just stop.. Theoretically, T3 should lower LDL

The terminology is confusing. Your so called “blood cholesterol” is a measurement of the lipoproteins that transport triglycerides and cholesterol through the bloodstream. A triglyceride consists of three fatty acids (tri) attached to a glycerol “backbone”. Dietary fat simply refers to fatty acids, which may be saturated, monounsaturated, or polyunsaturated ( terms which describe their structure). Fat (fatty acids) are one of the three main macronutrients, and they contain calories (9 kcals/gram). Cholesterol itself (not referring to the lipoproteins that carry it) is a structural component of cell membranes and steroid hormones (and not a source of calories). A perfect example of that is shrimp: 1 ounce has 6.8 grams of protein, 0.1 grams of fat, and 54 mg of cholesterol for a total of 28 calories. Your liver makes around 1000 mg of cholesterol daily, while dietary intake averages around 300 mg for the average male on a mixed diet.
