Low-carb diets improve many metabolic syndrome risk factors
What about LDL-chol? Turns out weight is a key factor
LDLc ⬆️ in those with low BMI
LDLc ⬇️ in those with high BMI
So ... no special concern, it seems, for LDLc on low-carb for obesity/diabetes

This week @JAMA_current reviewed the adverse effects of the GLP-1 drugs

I like the hashtag 😄

which greatly helps to optimize the reporting of the findings of systematic reviews.
