Summary

I am honored to reconnect with Dave Feldman today. Our last encounter was in December 2020, for Episode 128, where we delved deeply into the topic of cholesterol. Dave is an engineer by profession. He is profoundly clever and commands great respect within the low-carb and keto community due to his willingness to challenge prevailing narratives, encouraging us to explore alternative perspectives on lipid metabolism and reconsider our understanding of LDL, particularly in the context of lean mass hyper-responders like myself. In our discussion today, we dive into how LDL became so vilified, with Dave shedding light on several crucial research findings. We explain what low-mass hyper-responders are, examine biases and cognitive dissonance, touch on Dave’s new LMHR study, and discuss the Miami Heart study, a longitudinal study of the roles of LDL and plaque burden. We also explore the impact of ApoB and reflect on the essence of science as a pursuit of truth, and Dave shares what lies ahead for himself and his research. I trust you will find this conversation engaging and thought-provoking. IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN: Why LDL is considered a villain How AMRs and APB lipoproteins have influenced how we look at risk stratification What is a lean mass hyper-responder? How a low-carb, high-fat diet can improve the metabolic health of lean mass hyper-responders How Dave, an engineer turned scientist, challenges conventional wisdom in the health and wellness space Dave discusses a study on plaque progression in healthy individuals, focusing on correlating LDL levels How we are at the forefront of finding the significance of lean mass hyper-responders and LDL Dave shares the next thing he and his team will look at to substantiate his findings on lean mass hyper-responders Connect with Cynthia Thurlow Follow on Twitter Instagram LinkedIn Check out Cynthia’s website Submit your questions to [email protected] Connect with Dave Feldman On his website Instagram X Facebook Previous Episode Mentioned Ep. 128 – Cholesterol Obsession: Why It’s the Intellectual Property of the Animal Kingdom with Dave Feldman

1:30.7	challenging the narrative he is encouraging us to think beyond maybe some of the
1:36.8	principles in which we have been trained and to consider alternative perspectives to the way that we look at lipids and in particular looking at
