A 2012 study in lean, middle-aged adults showed that a specific bar formulation significantly increased HDL cholesterol, particularly the HDL2b particle subtype.

“there was a study that you guys all published together a few years ago in 2012 that was done in lean people and so maybe we can talk a little bit about what those results were well the primary effect these weren't all lean people they were it was a range but they were mostly at the lower end so they were and they were also tended to be adults middle aged people so they weren't kids and the the primary result that we found in that was a strong rise in HDL and particularly um Mark might want to talk about the particles do you want to talk about the hdl2b and and why it's so significant that the rise that we saw was almost exclusively with a particle called hdl2b”
