[QUOTE="Bluenosesol, post: 113389, member: 20149"] Hi Sweetenough, On diagnosis my trigs were 7.7 and I was advised that this is "heart attack territory". I moved onto a low carb diet. Pre diagnosis, breakfast was typically wholemeal toast with cereals and some fruit with lots of milk. Latterly it's typically bacon or saveloys with fried egg or 2 egg ommelete and tomatoes. Occasionaly a cold meat and cheeses platter and once or twice a week, kippers with eggs. I always used to cut the fat off meat and I now EAT it!!. I frequently snack on cheese. I would also add that I now always purchase the high fat or full fat product, whether it be cheese, yoghurt or cream. So conventional wisdom tells me that my cholesterol and trigs will suffer??. The reality??? Cholesterol has come down a little (it was never that bad anyway), my lipid ratio has improved significantly, my blood pressure has dropped from approx 130/80 to 114/66 and my trigs have been DECIMATED from 7.7 to 0.9!!!. I firmly believe and consider that I have proven to myself, that high carbs causes blood fat/lipid issues and not high fat. All the best - Steve. [/QUOTE]
