Summary
This study looked at how a 4-week ketogenic diet affects cholesterol and blood vessel health in healthy adults with a normal weight compared to those with obesity. Researchers wanted to see if the diet raises 'bad' LDL cholesterol more in lean people and harms blood vessel function. Participants ate only study-provided meals and had their blood and blood vessel health tested before and after the diet.
