So low carb?

Done lchf for the last two years and normalised all my stats bgs cholesterol and blood pressure. Like others say high fat doesn't mean your meals are oozing lard just that you are replacing starch with an increase in things like eggs and cheese ie natural unprocessed fats. You're also likely to up your protein by eating more meat and fish etc and also you'll likely replace starchy foods with far less bg raising carbs with high fibre carbs like green vegetables.

i only know that because i had it, i am also white coat dodging, id rather go to the fun fair and ask the bloke with the floating ducks for advice
 
we have a vested interest in db, they have to know alot about alot, you cant expect them to know as much as us, but some basic non lethal instructions would be nice
 
You can buy a cholesterol test kit I think I saw it on the website that sells the codefree meter But if not Mr Google will be able to find it
