[QUOTE="Antje77, post: 2410036, member: 372207"] And do you know what your cholesterol numbers were when doing keto? Personally, when my blood glucose got better (in my case with insulin together with lowering the carbs and upping the fats) I found my cholesterol numbers got better too, so eating more fats definitely didn't do my lipids harm! We have quite a few members knowing way more about cholesterol than I do, I'm mainly interested in diabetes. Here's a very long thread on cholesterol: [URL]https://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/threads/cholesterol-and-statins.156985/page-20[/URL] A meter is the perfect start! Especially as I've just read you like your intellect best about yourself in the Greetings and introductions thread ;) A meter allows you to see how food influences your BG real time, without biases or beliefs muddying the information. If you test before a meal, and around 2 hours after, your meter will tell you how well your body was able to cope with that amount of carbs, and you can adjust your meal next time. You might like to read this on how diabetes works: [URL]https://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/threads/basic-information-for-newly-diagnosed-diabetics.17088/[/URL] And this on how one of our members explains it: [URL]https://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/blog-entry/the-nutritional-thingy.2330/[/URL] Good luck!
