THE POWER OF AVOCADO!!!

It's really the only thing I have changed in my diet. I've been vlc for many many years. Eaten lamb, beef , fish, eggs forever.
It's my main fat everyday. I also switched form regular mayo to an expeller pressed conola based mayo. I was a little worried about that. I've always been a mayo junkie but this seemed a better option than soy based.

So, I'm happy!!!

Well Done @Kristin251, they look like excellent results though your figures are different to UK's.

Thanks! Thats why I posted the reference ranges. I ran all the ratios and all well within ideal.

Avocado over statins!!! I might be on to something!! That should have been the title of my thread!! Dang
