Friendly reminder to our #Carnivore and #keto friends that LDL-c levels in our ancestors were very very low. If you want to be truly ancestoral get your LDL-c down. https://t.co/54DyAPIkcv
Optimal low-density lipoprotein is 50 to 70 mg/dl: lower is better and physiologically normal.

What people are saying
The discussions are highly engaged with scientific evidence, citing studies like the 2004 paper by O'Keefe and Cordain, along with references to hunter-gatherer populations and evolutionary biology, framing LDL levels of 50-70 mg/dL as optimal and natural. The tone ranges from supportive to slightly skeptical, emphasizing the importance of LDL management for cardiovascular health, and words like "proof," "evidence," and "optimal" convey the perceived significance of these findings.
Most discussions strongly support the publication's conclusion that optimal LDL levels are between 50-70 mg/dL and that lower is better for health.
Participants demonstrate high curiosity, discussing detailed research, historical perspectives, and implications for health and diet.
Many refer to scientific studies, classical research, and evolutionary biology, indicating deep involvement and analysis.
The discussions could influence perspectives on diet, lipid management, and medical guidelines, reflecting significant potential influence.
Abstract in brief
- Optimal low-density lipoprotein (LDL) levels are considered to be between 50 and 70 mg/dL, and lower levels within this range are associated with better health outcomes.
- The normal LDL range observed in healthy humans, including neonates, primates, and wild mammals, is 50 to 70 mg/dL, and these groups typically do not develop atherosclerosis.
- Research indicates that lowering LDL to around 70 mg/dL reduces the progression of atherosclerosis and the risk of heart disease without significant safety concerns, suggesting current guidelines that set higher LDL targets may result in undertreatment of high-risk individuals.

@kevinnbass Here's my hypothesis: ldl-c is highly variable if humans were evolved to have an average ldl-c of 25mg/dl we wouldn't have enough ldl-c 50% of the time, therefore we evolved to have a higher ldl-c, a normal ldl-c is between 50-70mg/dl https://t.co/t3SXaOAxKK

@PKennedyeMD @NutritionMadeS3 The normal ldl-c is actually between 50-70mg/dl. https://t.co/t3SXaOAxKK If the normal ldl-c was 25mg/dl it would be too low 50% of the time. 50-70mg/dl gives enough wiggle room so that it's never too low. Just my hypothesis
