(And for me that was "healthier" fats,)my panel was full of either GOOD or IDEAL <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />A difficult call for you to make .I personally think processed food cut to the very minimum, and real food, got me back to a far healthier state in 6 months with my bloods then 8 years of low cal low fat ever dud.No expert, just offering my personal experience, in the hope that may help.Best of luck moving forward.</blockquote>
