1/ If you want to hear a great discussion on the #LMHRstudy from my colleague,@DrNadolsky (who is most definitely pro-#LDL #Cholesterol lowering), I highly recommend this podcast that just dropped via @Plant_proof.
I'll add just a few quick thoughts...

2/ Firstly, this may be the most I've heard myself talked about in a podcast I wasn't in (😂 weird, but understandable given the context).
But while certainly critical in many respects, I felt both @DrNadolsky and @Plant_proof provided a lot of good context...

3/ @DrNadolsky bring up my oft-repeated phrase, "cautiously optimistic" [in the context of higher LDL/ApoB as a seemingly resulting from metabolic fat-adaption]
Worth repeating that mine is a hypothesis and should be treated as such, hence the "cautious" part of the phrase...

4/ Or to be a bit more explicit -- we may well find there is considerable increase in non-calcified plaque for these LMHRs and borderline LMHRs within this study. This is definitely something I consider possible, hence the intense interest to find out either way.
5/ @Plant_proof mentions people can also consider a more #plantbased #lowcarb approach as it tends to associate with lower LDL, and FWIW, I tweet and retweet on this often. (search #PlantBasedKeto in my history to find tweets like these:

6/ I'm particularly proud of @DrNadolsky making the crucial case as to why we need to get this data from a pro-#LipidHypothesis perspective.
We're finally gathering data on the phenomenon in low carb that was debated long before I began this diet or began researching lipids.

7/ I did want to add a quick correction for my good friend, Spence -- the "gym hypothesis" hypothetical of converting lean folks to LMHRs isn't agnostic of the type of low carb (re M/PUFA), it's more about demonstrating the outcome as less likely genetic.

8/ Lastly, at the time of this recording, our #LMHRpaper wasn't out, but now it is -- and provides very interesting data around #LMHRs specifically.
