Thank you. Thank you. Welcome back, everyone. Everyone, everyone, we're here with another Q&A. Anything I say is not meant to

diagnose you. Check with your doc before implementing any of the suggestions that we're going to present today.

Let's dive right in, Steve.

Sure will.

Let's start off with our friends from YouTube, this case, JASNA.

My blood test indicates my LDL cholesterol is two times higher than it should be.

Doesn't give a number.

I believe that is the normal during ketosis.

And will it regulate itself eventually, or is it a high LDL a danger to my health? And once again, we have no idea what her

levels are. So this kind of boils down to what actually LDL is. It's not actual cholesterol. It's a

packaging boat, sort of speak, that's transporting

cholesterol from your liver to your tissues, whereas HDL takes it from the cell and puts it back

to the liver. So the best way to put things at ease is to do an advanced lipid profile test to look at the type of LDL you have.

There's two types.

And one is a lot smaller.

It's called small-dense lipop proteins.

And then you have bigger ones.

They're called large buoyant ones.

So you can look at that data to see if those are within a normal range because if you are on a low-carved diet and you're improving your insulin resistance, then you're not going to get the small, dense ones that can invade the cell wall and create problems. You're going to get the larger ones.

So this is why there's a little extra step of understanding that you can't just speak about

LDL in broad terms because there's a lot of new information about it that will put you

at rest.
