Thumbs up Got total cholesterol result today

Last year when I was on South Beach it was 188, now its down to 180 on Atkins-- when I was on a "normal balanced diet" it was 220.

I eat more fats now, including saturated "tropical oils" like natural coconut oil against the advice of the AMA, FDA, ADA, AHA, USDA etc.

I am due for a physical this month so I may have complete lipid results soon. My BP is also down from 160/90 to 119/75 sometimes lower.

Nice work. Congratulations, Mike! (Love that alphabet soup of "experts.")
