Cholesterol, The Lipid Energy Model, Lean Mass Hyperresponders, and Citizen Science with Dave Feldman

My guest on episode 50 of the podcast is Dave Feldman.

Dave Feldman is a Senior Software Engineer and Citizen Scientist. After seeing his cholesterol skyrocket on keto, he began obsessively researching lipidology and through a series of experiments has demonstrated novel data which is now building toward the larger Lipid Energy Model. This concept is now being explored with collaborating researchers and may potentially help explain much of the phenomenon around high cholesterol on a low carb, ketogenic diet.
