[QUOTE="Walking Girl, post: 2097787, member: 510059"] If you drill down into most of the individual studies, you will see people stopped following the exact diet protocol between the time frames given. A little misdirection on the part of the author, IMO. Which is why I continue to say your best bet is to choose the plan that you will enjoy the most, [B]long term.[/B] My cholesterol went from borderline before adopting Furhmans plan to to ideal in every measure, including the ( supposed) dreaded triglyceride increase and HDL decrease, which did not happen for me. My HDL went up, my triglycerides way down. After 1 year on his plan , my triglycerides went from 3.15 to less than 1. HDL from 1 to 1.5 (regular exercise raises HDL). LDL from over 2 to 1.3, which is why I say the best plan is so individual. FWIW, my fasting insulin dropped dramatically too, into the ideal range by any measure. 3.9 uIU ( fasting BG of 83 = 4.6) on my last test. Your friend has read one theory of the cause of T2. But no one really knows for sure... not yet anyway. [/QUOTE]
