[QUOTE="Bluetit1802, post: 1503360, member: 94045"] When I was diagnosed in January 2014 my HDL was 1.44. It crept up very slowly to 1.55 then 1.8 It jumped in December 2014 to 2.2 Since then it has gone up and up and is now 2.51. What happened just before December 2014? I reduced my carbs by about half to around 30g and increased my fats quite a lot to balance the newly reduced carbs. I have read several articles saying it is [B]carbs[/B] that keep HDL down. This seems to be true in my case. My increased fats consumption at the same time could also be a reason. It certainly hasn't done it any harm. [/QUOTE]
