Send us Fan MailDave Feldman is a returning guest on our show! Check out his first appearance on Boundless Body Radio on episode 109, where he was interviewed by our mutual friend, guest host Dr. Nick Norwitz! Dave Feldman is a senior software engineer, entrepreneur and a citizen scientist. After starting a low-carb diet in 2015, Dave found that his cholesterol numbers had increased considerably. He then began reverse-engineering the lipid system through self-experimentation and testing, finding the system to be very dynamic and fluid. He has now demonstrated this phenomenon multiple times by moving his cholesterol up and down substantially in a matter of days. He’s discovered similar and reproducible patterns in others and has since researched a particular phenotype that he coined “lean mass hyper responder”, or LMHR for short.Dave is the creator of the popular blog Cholesterol Code, where he shares all of his knowledge and research. Dave is also the founder of the Citizen Science Foundation, a non-profit that has funded several incredible studies.

He now helps people reclaim their health by coaching them through lifestyle changes and helps deprescribe medications. He currently practices medicine remotely via telemedicine!
