Elevated LDL-cholesterol levels among lean mass hyper-responders on low-carbohydrate ketogenic diets deserve urgent clinical attention and further research

•Lean mass hyper-responders exhibit extreme increases in LDL-c on ketogenic diets.•LDL-c increases in LMHRs are dependent on carbohydrate restriction.•Other cardiometabolic risk factors are normal to optimal in LMHRs.•A prudent clinical approach is required for managing LDL-c in LMHR patients.•Resea...

Zusammenfassung:•Lean mass hyper-responders exhibit extreme increases in LDL-c on ketogenic diets.•LDL-c increases in LMHRs are dependent on carbohydrate restriction.•Other cardiometabolic risk factors are normal to optimal in LMHRs.•A prudent clinical approach is required for managing LDL-c in LMHR patients.•Research is warranted to assess mechanisms and cardiovascular risk of this trait.
