Ketogenic diet AND hypocholesterolemia. How is that possible?

I found this article, I hope that helps.
Quote from the article:

Physical activity in the first place when it comes to raising the level of HDL. Studies have shown that regular physical activity that raises the heart rate (aerobic training),
For good cholesterol is the most important movement, and raises levels of good cholesterol. The ideal choice brisk morning walk for 30 to 45 minutes or half-hour cycling. A new study by Japanese scientists provides new elements relating the story of HDL and exercise. Researchers from Tokyo announced in the Archives of Internal Medicine data from a large analysis of the effect of exercise on HDL levels. The analysis included data from 35 studies. Programs are considerably varied depending on the type of exercise, consumption of ordinary practice 40 minutes, three to four times a week, and the effect on the HDL was measured after 27 weeks.

The risk of cardiovascular diseases occurring two to three percent for each 0.05 mg / dL increase in HDL. Perhaps the most interesting finding is that the Japanese exercise duration, and not frequency or intensity, the strongest effect on the level of HDL. Simply put, those who want to raise HDL levels, you should exercise three to four times a week for at least 20 minutes, and the ideal would be the 40th

Eat the right fats

It is not possible or wise to leave out the fat from your diet. If you want to affect your HDL, you must be sure you are getting the right fats. These are scientifically proven, monounsaturated fats like those in olive oil, and some nuts. Avoid saturated fats and trans fats that raise LDL and HDL crash.


Greasy, oily fish is a rich source of omega-3 fats which are also necessary for the health of the heart and brain. In a study at the University of Guelph in Ontario women who daily consumed 2.8 g of omega-3 fats from fish for 28 days, had eight percent more HDL levels than the control group who took a placebo.

Drink plenty of green tea

Epigalokatekin-3-gallate (EGCG), polyphenol from green tea, has antioxidant, anti-tumor and anti-inflammatory activity. A number of studies have shown that EGCG improves cholesterol levels in the right way - lowers LDL and raises HDL. You can drink it as desired, but do not go overboard with sugar.

Squeeze orange

Research shows that fresh orange juice significantly raises levels of HDL

According to a Canadian study, two glasses of orange juice a day for four weeks have increased HDL levels by 20 percent effect is attributed to flavonoid hesperidin. Additional research has shown that the tangerine juice even more efficient. Unfortunately, most industrially produced soft drinks contain a lot of sugar, so it is good to stick to one glass a day, or invest in a juicer and prepare fresh juice.

Niacin (Vitamin B3)
Niacin, the study found, raises the level of HDL cholesterol in the body, and to 30 per cent. If you suffer from a lack of good cholesterol, can raise his level of supplementation of niacin, and to 500 milligrams a day.

I do not think we should avoid saturated fat nor eat nuts - at least for some of us who are sensitive or allergic to - or am I misunderstanding something here?

I sometimes drink some and use the teabag put in fridge after use of it to put on my eyes on the day after on the morning as it looks reduces bags under the eyes. Otherwise, I do the same with Aloe Vera gel kept in my fridge.

I am not sure orange fruits are good because as many fruits they contain fructose. I rather use flavonoid from grapefruit seed each day. Plus, I also use it for brush my teeth as they seem decrease the dental plaque (from my recent experiment, it seems working on me) and I also use it on my skin face. I also have to try it on my hairs as they are falling as snow in winter. :(

I should add that all products that I put on my face or use for skin are organic. I put nothing on it that I couldn't eat. ;)

Yes, as I wrote previously, I also take Complex-B as supplement each day.

Thank you Casper for searching and sharing this article.

I've just found this thread: Supplement for Autoimmune issues and Rejuvenation starting by Laura, I thought I should take a look on it and share here.

Bad article. Oranges are pure sugar: bad.

Saturated fats are GOOD.

In short, it is just a MSM propaganda piece with almost no value.

To be honest, I did not felt very well after my last post because it sounded a bit "unfair" to me. I should maybe have write something like:

"Thank you for your concern Casper as I appreciate it, but as I do not think this article is accurate, I should have say it in my previous answer instead than thank you for it as it cannot be of help for the reasons that Laura described."
Sounds better for me. :)
