Re: HIGH Cholesterol from Atkins? YES, according to my LAB reports!

Now Look! YOU are trying to imply that everyone is the same and that if they are not that they are freaks of nature. I am telling you that my medical training has been extensive. I am NOT stupid. I used the Atkins guide lines EXACTLY. And I did not lend my book out while I was using it. MY CHOLESTEROL WENT UP by 165 points to 400 and that 400 was measure after fasting with NO food for 18 hours. Imagine how high it would have been with the standard 12 hour fast!

I am saying that people need to get their cholesterol checked monthly if they go on the Atkins diet. If it raises their cholesterol they should ask their doctor if they should continue. Do the risks outweigh the benefits?

Atkins is wonderful for people whose cholesterol goes down. But for some it goes UP. I am not a one of a kind! Raising cholesterol to the level mine went is a SURE KILLER. Be smart. Keep track of your cholesterol with a LAB test. Tweet
