Lowering cholesterol

Guinevere said:

I am an overweight diabetic. I have just had my cholesterol and
triglycerides tested and the result was very, very good, according to
my doctor, surprisingly good for a diabetic.

Here is how I did it.

I eat very little meat. I eat six servings a day of high fiber grains.
I eat beans five days a week. I eat salmon three days a week. I eat
a moderate amount of "good fats" such as olive oil, avocados, flax seed
meal, walnuts, almonds, and cannola oil.

Precisely!

STOP eating greasy fast-food from McDonalds, Hardees, Burger King and
the like.

START eating high fiber foods. And, that positively means eating
whole-grains and legumes.

I use weights for my upper body three days a week

I exercise my lower body on alternate days using a step and a small
ball.

I walk about forty minutes a day. I do aerobics, but I am still too
heavy to do it well.

I have lost over one hundred pounds. I have a lot more to go.

Hope this helps.

Oh. Garlic lowers cholestrol, but do the other things, too.

I'm a normal weight diabetic.

I lowered my cholesterol and triglycerides from high risk to below
average risk serum results for anyone, not just a diabetic by eating
mostly meat, fish, veggies, dairy, and skipping the beans and grains.

I got further benefits from taking pantethine.

See, nobody disagrees. The post from that loser has self-destructed.
Ha, ... Hah, Ha! How convenient?

If the normal standard recommendationss will work on one overweight
diabetic, then they will work on all overweight diabetics. 🙂

The problem many overweight diabetic run into is defective
implementation.

For those who manage to implement the above recommendations IMPROPERLY
then there is always the old standby of a high-protein / fat diet.
