Is this a sign of dysfunction, or simply a reflection of how your body fuels itself? In this episode of The Health Pulse, we unpack the Lipid Energy Model (LEM), a framework that helps explain why some people—known as Lean Mass Hyper-Responders (LMHRs)—see dramatic LDL increases alongside very high HDL and very low triglycerides. Using clear analogies, we break ...
