Do you avoid red meat? Also, do you worry about cholesterol intake from the meat and eggs?
I am convinced that dietary fat and cholesterol are not the problem as we have been told for decades.
My blood work is excellent. In fact, my doctor is on board with what I am doing but she also doesn’t quite know what to make of it. I think she still has some cognitive dissonance with someone eating the way I do and seeing the results that, per her training, should not be happening.
I also used to take 50mg of Losartan for blood pressure but I no longer need it.
I know that in my country (Belgium), cattle is often fed the excess and/or unused part of some local productions (beetroot, hay from the farm ...). So that actually sounds useful to prevent waste.
In fact, carbs are metabolized into cholesterol, so really you need to be avoiding bread if you want to lower your cholesterol, not eggs.
I really like his engineering approach.
My HDL was up (67), triglycerides down (60). When my doctor got the results she called me and the conversation went like this:
Doc: I got your bloodwork results in today.
Me: And?
Doc: I have really good news.
Me: Great!
Doc: What are you doing?
I explained a little about the Feldman Protocol and she went quiet for a while, and finally said, well, keep doing what you’re doing I guess.
