How does a low-carb diet impact cholesterol and heart health?

A low-carb diet can impact cholesterol and heart health by potentially increasing levels of HDL (good) cholesterol and decreasing triglycerides. However, some individuals might experience an increase in LDL (bad) cholesterol or other markers. It’s important to focus on healthy fats, such as those from nuts and avocados, and monitor lipid levels regularly. Consulting with a healthcare provider can help assess individual risk and outcomes.
