Beans and oats are great for fatty liver, but not for prediabetes, then brussel sprouts, broccoli, kale and soy are great, but not for a hypothyroid....i love all these foods...my body just does not...the pancreas, the liver, etc....all seems to be rejecting everything "healthy."  That's why I feel like giving up as there is nothing left to eat out there.  I thought I was doing the right thing with going keto, but that was before the results of these recent bloods.  I can't have the bacon and cheese any longer because it's just not the right diet for someone who's got the high cholesterol gene. Also, I didn't need to do keto to lose weight either. i am actually below my weight for my height. So it's been a real struggle, and you all have been so kind and helpful.</p></blockquote><p></p>
