I got my family's high LDL and cholesterol, which normalized for the 2 years I was on keto and stayed low after. I went from having my GP threatening to put me on Crestor to asking for blood work every month for a while to accepting it was working and probably not going to be the death of me. Apparently dietary cholesterol doesn't really affect blood level. I'm not an athlete, but I do about 10 miles a day. Nothing special.
