Last year I was convinced I was doing pretty good but these, unexpected, results and the gout plus the conflicting information/ways to deal with it is driving me a bit bonkers. My omad lchf diet most of the time consisting of a portion of meat for the calories and a selection of vegetables has made my hba1c results very good for me. The result this week was 38 which is the lowest I have in my records. But the meat part of the diet is a no no for gout leaving me with just "above ground vegetables".The best diet for gout appears to be the dash diet which would mean more carbs...   The offal and sardines are rated among the highest on the "do not eat" list for gout btw <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite2" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=";)" /> My blood pressure is to high depending on how it's measured. Manual measurements are always in the "good" ~130/80 range but electronical ones usually way higher although the last one (march) was 136/89. For this I get a water pill that is possibly also a cause of my high uric acid level which can cause the gout too. My exercise level is normally good I think. Baring the corona years and this year actually, I cycle ~4000km a year which for me translates to exercising a little more than half an hour every day of the year.Not a clue on how fast cholesterol levels can change but for the moment I have stopped with the coconut oil and I'm going to try to see if the doc is up for other blood pressure medication. When I asked last Friday if the water pill could be a cause the response was just a "maybe".Sorry for the long message but I feel like I'm back at square one with nowhere to go to put it mildly.</blockquote>
