This past eight days, I have been so upset, so stressed . I lost my beloved cat, thought my house was falling down. My partner was having panic attacks. My bloods went so high and even with a lot of exercise I was not able to reduce them much. I stopped testing and writing everything down...

Hi, just wondering if it's safe for me to be doing the low carb diet, These are my current blood teat results July 23 Serum cholesterol 6.2 Triglyceride 1.6 Seen chlesterol/HDL ratio-6 HD 1.03 LDL4.4

Hi rather worried as my bloods seem to be all over the place this morning. Did a very strenuous exercise fie a hour this morning After a bowl of porrage my bloods rose from 10.5 to 15.5. I am completely confused.... Any suggestions would be gratefully received.....:)

Can I ask you all, now clearing out cupboards to take to a food bank how is brown rice pasta, what your take on beans, kidney butter beans flagolet and lentils and cous cous?

Thxs everybody. I feel pretty released as I thought I might have to go on insulin if my blood did not come down. I am going to do a bs monitor and food diary, any recommendations?

HOPEFULLY!!
