@@ari123621 Some lean mass hyper-responders with high LDL find they can bring that number down by introducing more carbohydrates back into their diet. Oreo cookies could work, but that would not be a wise choice. Healthier high-carb foods might include things like sweet potatoes, basmati rice, oatmeal perhaps. Be aware these foods could spike your blood sugar. So then you're stuck with deciding "which is worse?" Is it the high LDL or is it the high blood sugar?
"Bad LDL" is what is caused by mitochondrial dysfunction in the hepatocytes and mitochondria spilling out citrate into the cytosol. This citrate is converted into AcetylCoa and the either into fatty acids (and pushed out of the liver aqs triglycerides) or converted into the HMGCoa and all down to the cholesterol and also pushed out of the liver in a (V)LDL particle...
High LDL can be too high when it becomes unhealthy just as much as too low levels. If you get yellow blotches appearing around your eyes or on your eyelids, it;s probably an indicator of your LDL being more than your body can handle and you need to bring it down. The yellow blotches are permanent.
Hi, if you're curious about LDL and our stance on cholesterol, we have some more info in the Defeat Diabetes resources library over here --> www.defeatdiabetes.com.au/resources/free-webinars/the-cholesterol-controversy/
This is clear, to the point, accurate and logical. Thanks for making this known.

Thanks for stating this so clearly and concisely.
Glad it was helpful!
Great information. Thank you.

Small increases, or even large increases: should not be concerned
Hmm? They kinda skipped past the people who go low carb and experience BIG increases in their LDL (i.e the LMHR people - Lean Mass Hyper-Responders).
@@Malcolm-Achtman yes, I am one.

But what if you also have a heart valve regurgitation, as many heart patients do? Does raised LDL increase the rate of calcification & stenosis?
