💊 You swallowed the supplement.
But most of it didn’t make it past your gut. In fact, 95% of your CoQ10 supplement is likely pooped out.
Here’s why Q10’s size, structure, and your meal choices make a BIG difference in whether it actually helps.

🧠 What exactly is Q10… and why is it always mentioned with statins?
It’s safe.
It’s popular.
But it’s still misunderstood.
This short is your quick intro to a molecule that gets a lot of attention — especially if you’re taking a statin.

A health “nut” (classified as a lean mass hyper-responder) dropped his cholesterol by adding 12 Oreos a day to his keto diet.
Sounds delicious, right?
But if you’re insulin resistant, this cookie hack could backfire.

Ever wonder why your LDL spikes on keto?
It’s not the bacon. 🥓
It’s your liver — working overtime to fuel your body.
On keto, your cells switch from burning sugar to burning fat.
Your liver responds by sending out VLDL particles — packed with fat.
Once the fat is dropped off, what’s left becomes LDL.
⚠️ And that’s what shows up on blood work.
😱 Cue panic.
But if your liver is healthy, those LDLs are just passing through.
If not? They hang around. That’s when trouble starts.
🎥 Watch to understand the science behind rising LDL on keto — and why context matters.

Is your LDL sky-high… but everything else looks great?
If you’re lean, athletic, and insulin sensitive — you might be what researchers are calling a Lean Mass Hyper-Responder (LMHR).
In this reel, I unpack new research comparing LMHRs to everyday folks. The LDL in LMHRs is often >190 mg/dL — a number that would alarm most doctors — but their CAC scores suggest their hearts are doing just fine.
The takeaway?
LDL might be loud, but it’s not always telling the truth.
The full picture matters.
🎬 This is Part 2 in my LMHR cholesterol series. Follow so you don’t miss Part 3, where we dive into the Lipid Energy Model — a theory that may explain what’s going on in LMHRs (and maybe in you too)
