Finally, it is well known that carbs get broken down into glucose, which is stored as glycogen on priority basis. Thereafter, rest is sent into circulation for muscle storage or immediate use. Whatever is left in circulation after that is converted in triglycerides & stored in adipose tissue. Because of this,it is the carbs that actually impact the fats in circulation the most. So by eating LC/HF you allow the body to take it's own course correction and see cholesterol levels drop.

From what I understood, it is actually this last point which is why the cholesterol levels drop on a higher fat intake. Clear enough but I'm reading Dr. Peter Attia, and will come back if I have any more questions. Thank you Shanny & skb.
