A woman who diets and cuts out all fats but still eats carbohydrates. Will she lower her LDL? HDL?

chylomicrons are blood lipoproteins produced from dietary fat. It is the VLDLs that are produced mainly from dietary carbohydrate. IDL and LDL are produced from VLDL. Thus, HER LDL level will still BE HIGH.
