Thank you. I enjoyed listening to this. As a metabolically healthy non-lean mass hyper-responder with a recent CTAC of zero, low carb for 2y 8m, I am very interested in the results of these studies.
I have had off-the-charts levels of cholesterol all my life, now 73 yrs old. I would never have been called lean, but have always been mesomorphic. Doctors have insisted that I take cholesterol lowering medications but have refused. They were sure I must have heart disease. I made a deal with my doctor: I would take a CAC test and if the results came back poor then I'd consider it. My CAC result was zero. My endochrinologist said "How do you do that?" As I've adopted Keto to combat the inflammatory effects of carbs, my cholesterols have risen, but I don't worry about it. The question I have is regarding the role of thyroid in all this. I have finally been diagnosed with Hashimoto's disease and I suspect that I am a poor convertor of T4 to T3. Other readings I have done recount that in the 1940s they would note that high blood cholesterol was linked to thyroid disease. The medical system makes it very difficult to have a conversation with doctors about any of this, let alone get thorough testing. Just take these drugs. I'd love to see someone like yourself include investigation into the role of thyroid hormones in the lipid system.
Thyroid hormone production often decreases on a Carnivore ketogenic diet because (its believed) hormone sensitivety improves so much that less is required for the same effect. Therefore ,if you try a Carnivore diet, it may help your Hashimotos symtoms .I know its great for a variety of auto-immune conditions .I've been carnivore for about 18 months .
This is weird, but I found that taking 1-2 teaspoons of coconut oil every day brought my thyroid function up. It's not well understood, but apparently coconut oil is thermogenic in the body, slightly raising metabolic function so that the thyroid functions better. I used my morning temperature (before coffee, food, or brushing your teeth) as a measurement. Before taking coconut oil as a routine, my basal rate was around 96.8, after a few weeks of coconut oil, it went up to around 97.6 or more. Don't take too much!!! It can result in "disaster pants".
T2 diabetic here. Act like a hyperresponder even though I’m not metabolically healthy. My BMI is 22.7 (normal). I want to ask if Dave constantly registers ketones with low glucose?

Thank you look forward to seeing your documentary

@@healingarts9924 Thank you, I'll give it a try. Nothing to lose!
Find a doctor that will let you add pure t3 to your thyroid medication
Thank you, Dave Feldman! Thank you, STEM-talks!
Are you considered LMHR if you meat all the markers except the triglycerides number is 73?
