Elevated LDL Cholesterol with a Carbohydrate-Restricted Diet: Evidence for a “Lean Mass Hyper-Responder” Phenotype Nicholas G Norwitz, David Feldman, Adrian Soto-Mota, Tro Kalayjian, David S Ludwig Current Developments in Nutrition, Volume 6, Issue 1, January 2022, nzab144, https://doi.org/10.1093/cdn/nzab144 Published: 30 November 2021 Article history Fit people have greater LDL increase doing low carb, if I'm reading this correctly?

Methods Hypothesis-naive analyses were conducted on web survey data from 548 adults consuming a CRD. Univariate and multivariate regression models and regression trees were buil...
