Picture this: you’re lean, active, insulin-sensitive, and thriving on a low-carb lifestyle—yet your LDL cholesterol shoots past 200. 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 ...

We break down the power of markers like LDL particle number (LDL-P), apolipoprotein B (ApoB), small dense LDL, and lipoprotein(a)—plus inflammatory markers that reveal whether arterial plaques are s...
