Guest guest Posted October 12, 1999 Report Share Posted October 12, 1999 Low-carbing is what has improved HDL, triglycerides and cholesterol for me, Bill. Here are some numbers: 1988 1994 1995 1998 1999 HDL 38 45 63 57 LDL 93 87 76 choles/HDL ratio 4.3 (H) 4.3 (H) 3.2 3.0 triglycerides 226 (H) 650 (H) 274 (H) 259 (H) 170 total cholesterol 231 (H) 228 (H) 193 202 169 I added in 1988 to show that, years before diagnosis, I was already showing insulin resistance, in the form of elevated triglycerides and cholesterol. Upon diagnosis, I worked on a low-fat diet. My blood test results weren't what I wanted them to be, and I kept on gaining weight. I lowered my carbohydrate intake at the beginning of 1998. My 1998 and 1999 blood work was done six months and 18 months into low-carbing. My readings are now optimal. I have never used medications to lower cholesterol, triglycerides, or glucose levels. In addition, my liver function improved by two-thirds. (The liver works in concert with the pancreas to try to normalize glucose levels, and I was stressing both organs by forcing them to handle too many carbohydrates.)
