Hi there
I am doing lchf, and I can say that it suits me, my bg readings are good, my appetite is more stable and it just feels right, I feel better, although I have previously been a carb addict. I have yet to have a blood test that reveals my cholesterol levels though, and I do take statins. I understand that nuts, fish, avocados etc are beneficial, but I am just confused as to whether I should be eating much cheese, butter in place of margarine, or whether I should go for normal or low fat foods when selecting yoghurt or creme fraiche or coconut milk? Is the low fat version worse? I am confused,
