AF tues 23 July
hidy ho ABeroooos!
greetings from yet another hotel room. plugging away and happy to be at day 90 AF again.
River, huge kudos on 5+ years! what a joyous thing!
Treetops, my personal nutritional research has been quite exhaustive in the past 3 years and I agree with Cindi's post. I could write about this for a hundred pages and probably not convince you however.
FYI 45% of the world's population that dies of a heart event had LOW to normal blood cholesterol. it's almost completely irrelevant to heart disease risk. the test to get is the lipoprotein particle count and systemic inflammatory markers (such as C-RP). those will give you a realistic idea of how you are doing. if you can only eat fish and eggs you can still turn your diet into a more powerful tool than any statin could hope to be. daily get 0.75grams of protein per pound of your body weight, get a lot more dietary fats from extra virgin coconut oil, cut out grains and legumes (especially soy), and you WILL dramatically improve your LDL/HDL levels, lower systemic inflammation, and be a healthier human in the process. also don't go nuts on the cardio. incorporate some weight resistance training and be prepared to be pleasantly surprised. (boy am I a freaking nag or what?)
lovely hot day here in Cali, but cooler than back home. I'm so glad the sales rep I'm with is not drinking. makes the evenings a lot more tolerable.
Chief, what you up to?
be well loves
