  I am a 76 yo woman. I started a ketogenic diet in 2015. I had a history of high LDL cholesterol. I lost 60 lbs. I am still not lean but am about 5’9” and 170 lbs. since going keto/carnivore, my LDL has gone to over 300. My TG and HDL are good. I had CAC scans in 2019 and 2022 and they were 0 both times. I was on statins in my 40’s-50’s but could not tolerate them. I use my CAC scans to keep doctors off my back about taking statins.

  I am an 82 year old woman. I began keto nine years ago and progressed to carnivore three years ago. As soon as my weight began to drop (my bmi is 21.3) my LDL went through the roof, currently at 352 mg/dL and my triglycerides plummeted and HDL soared! Having followed Dave Feldman for some time I decided not to worry about it - turns out I may have been right! 🤞🤞

  I get so stressed out every time I go into the doctor because he thinks I'm going to have a heart attack at any moment. Carotid scans are always clear, as are the Echos. Finally sent for a CAC last week and just awaiting results. I'm 53, run 2 miles every day and weigh 118 at 5'4". Never see the doctor because I'm sick. And yet, I'm treated like I'm not responsible and going to die because I won't take statins. Thank you so much for these studies. It's nice to have scientists and doctors who get it and give us evidence to support what we already know in our hearts - no pun intended.

  One thing life has taught me: the more we learn about a topic, the more we realize we didn't know. Great work Nick and the team.🎉

  When i was a kid, I thought the world had already figured all this stuff out. It's unbelievable that we still know so little....

  I love that this was crowd funded. I have a feeling this is the way of the future. Why? Because those with ulterior motives and agendas will be far fewer than current day.

  Hi Nick. I&apos;m on the keto diet. My ldl went up only when i was seriously stressed (emotionally). Additionally, I&apos;ve had an autoimmune disease since childhood. So it was no surprise when i received the diagnosis of coronary artery disease, affecting my RCA and left circumflex. I&apos;ve managed to reduce the inflammation in my body and am currently on supplements like berberine, NAC, TMG and coq10. It&apos;s stress that&apos;s caused my disease. Surrounded by horrible people will do that😅. I can still laugh through it all and that&apos;s a blessing.

  Nuance is important. Those on low carb diets may now hope for better care from health care professionals who so often are distracted by irrelevancies such as cholesterol levels.

  Considering there was a paper published in the JACC stating that saturated fat consumption was not linked to heart disease, and should not be a nutrient of concern, FIVE years ago, I don&apos;t expect this new paper to have any immediate effect.
