I loved keto but my cholesterol went through the roof and kept going higher.

Seems like for many it's stable or even improves. But it definitely did not for me.

One of the main points of Keto is that you are satiated easily. "Keto crack" is the entirely wrong mindset and why so many people who dabble in low carb without understanding it beyond the surface, end up failing.

Same thing happened to me when I did Keto OMAD while using formulas derived from the Minnesota Starvation Study to maximized my fat loss. I do wonder if there's an issue in rapidly burning body fat causing the body to get flooded from cholesterol that was stored in that fat. In recent years the link between dietary cholesterol and blood cholesterol have been found to be pretty weak but I haven't seen any studies on the link between burning body fat and blood cholesterol levels.
In your case, you might want to get a full lipid panel instead of just HDL/LDL so you have a better insight into just what cholesterol types are in your blood. Not all types of LDLs are bad.

Statins are statistically useless and come with other health risks besides. All they claim to do is increase uptake of lipoproteins back into the liver, but the liver doesn't uptake lipoproteins randomly so they don't do jack. Positive outcomes can easily be explained through bias, in that people worried about their hearts are more likely to do other things with positive effects like exercise or avoid processed food, or even just go to the doctor more.

Statins effectiveness is measured in blood samples, and it works to reduce a number that doctors say is bad if its over X
Now you can look does X being too high mean higher mortality but if you believe it does then statins work to reduce it.

The main danger has always been saturated fat, which OP's "carnivore" snack of melted butter is very high in.

Dietary cholesterol increases the cholesterol-elevating properties of saturated fat and can have a significant effect on its own. It's true that recent studies have downplayed the effects of dietary cholesterol, but you have to understand the history of the research, where most research for decades showed a clear and reproducible effect of dietary cholesterol on blood cholesterol (such that the Hegsted equation was developed to predict changes in cholesterol from dietary factors), which lead to industry funding their own research in response with study designs intended to get favorable results that they could then lobby the USDA with and improve their marketing. You can see how they design their studies and how they interpret their data.

Yes. And sometimes they eat spiderwebs to get the protein if they're suffering a protein deficiency.

Reminder that only herbivorous animals have the ability to taste salt and carnivorous and omnivorous animals have been studied to die of sodium deficiency because they can't tell the difference between salted and unsalted food. If humans were carnivores or even omnivores, we wouldn't have to salt meat and dairy to not make it taste like globs of fleshy, greasy shit that tastes like dirt and blood. Or even cook it, for that matter.

Fresh milk tastes pretty good without altering it.

I do mostly agree about the salt thing. Something I wondered though, if it's possible we are carnivores but have a higher salt need due to how we sweat. I've also smelled high quality raw beef that almost smelled sweet and appetizing on its own before. I'm not sure if I really would've enjoyed eating it. I end up craving plant foods frequently so I don't know if we're truly carnivores.

>omnivorous animals have been studied to die of sodium deficiency because they can't tell the difference between salted and unsalted food
This disproves your entire claim. If omnivores die of sodium deficiency, then the genetic adaptation to taste salt would be beneficial to them. Therefore it is plausible an omnivorous species would evolve salt sensitivity on their own, without the need of inheriting it from a herbivorous ancestor. Like how cephalopods evolved an eye that's extremely similar, but slightly different to ours. Convergent evolution

Also herbivores, omnivores and carnivores are not different evolutionary branches. A carnivore evolved from an omnivore wouldn't just lose salt sensitivity for no reason, so I call bullshit

What's a better explanation is that in a sodium-deficient environment herbivores don't have luxury to see their deficiency to it's conclusion because they get hunted by meat-eaters before that. So you can only see the negative effects higher up the food chain. Especially if you assume that deficient individuals are easier to hunt than non-deficient ones.

>>20168414
>If omnivores die of sodium deficiency, then the genetic adaptation to taste salt would be beneficial to them.
I think the point might be that they'll naturally get sodium from the animal foods they eat. There's no sodium in a lot of plant foods so herbivores have to specifically seek it out.

I remember when I went low carb, eating a single apple would spike the fuck out of my blood sugar. The less (natural) sugar you eat, the less (natural) sugar your body can tolerate. The more fat you eat, the more resistant to insulin your body becomes. Cutting out dairy alone did wonders for my "insulin sensitivity" and now I can eat things like bread and fruit no problem.

As a rule of thumb that's too many eggs, but getting your cholesterol checked is the most accurate way to see how at risk you are. See how much your diet is affecting you.
