In the interest of understanding how LDL and cholesterol in general might be affected by a ketogenic, particularly carnivore WOE, I would like to start a thread where we can share our cholesterol numbers, if any of us happen to have them to hand of course, pre and post keto/carni.
I’ll go first, here are mine: (from October 2022, pre keto and carni, on a HC/LF diet)
Serum cholesterol 3.59 mmol/L
Serum triglycerides 0.93 mmol/L
Serum HDL cholesterol level 1.8 mmol/L
Serum LDL cholesterol 1.37 mmol/L
Se non HDL cholesterol level 1.79
Serum cholesterol/HDL ratio 2
I will be having my lipids tested again 6 months to a year from now following carnivore, and will naturally share that result too.
I have spent quite a lot of time lately on the Dave Feldman’s blog, the cholesterol code, and am really fascinated by Dave Feldman’s and Siobhan Huggin’s work and experimentation in manipulating their lipids, showing it can be done.
