[QUOTE="Pipp, post: 2294910, member: 100904"] Sorry for late reply, [USER=29534]@Saskia[/USER] I would not like anyone to think I am against LCHF, sorry my post caused misunderstanding. I have found the Low carb and enough fat way of eating to be beneficial. I do, however, gain weight if I consume too much butter, cream, etc. I believe , for me, it is the excess weight that causes problems with increased insulin resistance, and raising blood glucose levels. Indeed I am more concerned about this than the high cholesterol, as I have seen in people I care about the damage to blood vessels due to high BG that have contributed to circulation problems, resulting in heart attacks, neuropathy, strokes, leg ulcers and dementia. I envy those members who have been able to do well with higher levels of fat in diet, whether that be from animal or vegetable fats. I have found my own optimum levels, though. My mention of cholesterol levels was to merely alert people to the condition familial hypercholesterolaemia, which is not the same as just having what doctors perceive to be ‘high cholesterol’. Hope I haven’t caused further confusion. :) [/QUOTE]
