In a recent article published in the Journal Current Opinion in Endocrinology, Diabetes, and Obesity, researchers discussed the use of statins for individuals on a low carbohydrate diet with high LDL cholesterol. Many people have concerns about the impact of low carb diets on cardiovascular health, particularly due to the rise in LDL cholesterol readings. However, there is no conclusive evidence that healthy fat consumption causes heart disease. The article explores the role of LDL cholesterol as a causal factor in cardiovascular disease, the impact of insulin resistance and different lipid profiles on heart health, and the effect of low carbohydrate diets on cardiovascular disease risks. While there are no long-term studies evaluating the impact of increased LDL cholesterol with low carb diets, research has shown that low carb diets can improve several markers of cardiovascular health and reduce risk factors such as visceral fat, blood pressure, inflammation, glucose, lipids, and insulin-based risks. Ultimately, it is important to work with a trained healthcare practitioner to monitor and properly implement any nutrition or lifestyle program.
