Oreo Cookies Reduce LDL More Than Statins

Oreo Cookies Reduce LDL More Than Statins In a recent study researchers found that some individuals are lean mass hyper-responders (LMHR). In these individuals ketogenic diet increases LDL levels, and taking carbs reduces LDL more than statins. Let's review this phenomenon with Dave Feldman - the person who discovered this phenotype and explore various studies that their team have conducted. Link to the Oreo cookie paper: https://www.mdpi.com/2218-1989/14/1/73 Dave's Bio: Dave Feldman is a software and platform engineer, an entrepreneur, and founder of the Citizen Science Foundation. His life took a radical turn on seeing his cholesterol skyrocket after adopting a ketogenic diet and became obsessed with understanding why this is common with those who are likewise leaner and more metabolically healthy. On researching lipidology, he found the system the human body utilizes to manage cholesterol in the blood closely resembles a network, much like those he's worked on in engineering. Through a series of self experiments and partnering with formal researchers, he has since published the "Lipid Energy Model" which may explain this phenomenon. In addition to this mechanistic research, he's now spearheading a study out of UCLA that will gather advanced heart scans (CCTA) on participants with a likewise high LDL cholesterol and whether it will be associated with high risk for cardiovascular disease.
