Ep. 115: LMHR & The Lipid Energy Model: Implications For Metabolism & Hormones
Description
- Whether you should be concerned about high LDL or high cholesterol on a low-carb diet
- The validity of the Lean Mass Hyper-Responder (LMHR) Phenotype and Lipid Energy Model proposed by Dave Feldman
- The metabolic state that drives the Lipid Energy Model
- How the "Lean Mass Hyper-Responder" and Lipid Energy Model support the Bioenergetic view of cardiovascular disease

Timestamps:
0:00 – intro
1:14 – what is the Lean Mass Hyper-Responder (LMHR) phenotype
3:33 – how the Lipid Energy Model challenges the mainstream dogmatic view linking high cholesterol levels to heart disease
6:33 – the protective effects of cholesterol and why it does not cause heart disease, despite being necessary for atherosclerosis
9:49 – the distinction between Lean Mass Hyper-Responders and those with high cholesterol levels in the context of metabolic dysfunction
15:10 – what is the Lipid Energy Model
22:10 – how the body adapts to a lack of carbohydrates, leading to elevated cholesterol levels
27:22 – the hormonal and metabolic state underlying the Lean Mass Hyper-Responder phenotype
32:21 – how adding carbohydrates lowers cholesterol levels in those who don't have metabolic dysfunction at a cellular level
37:11 – whether Lean Mass Hyper-Responders are at increased risk of cardiovascular disease
42:00 – why the Lean Mass Hyper-Responder phenotype isn't ideal: stress and low thyroid function
51:10 – the parallels between the lipid energy model and physiological insulin resistance
