This source discusses concerns raised by various doctors regarding a recent study on the keto diet and heart health. The core issue revolves around the study's reported findings, particularly the lack of initial disclosure of data showing significant progression of soft plaque in individuals on a ketogenic diet. Critics argue that the study authors misrepresented the results and emphasized secondary outcomes to downplay the concerning plaque progression, which other studies suggest is accelerated by high LDL cholesterol levels, even if this study wasn't designed to show that correlation. The source highlights the drama and lack of transparency surrounding the study's publication and subsequent communication, cautioning against the irresponsible promotion of high LDL on a keto diet based on this research.
