Hi All
I’ve recently had bloods done and whilst I am in the normal range, I am making changes to my diet to lower both cholesterol and hba1c. Both are normal but I would like them lower due to a family history of issues with both.
The issue I’m having is that it’s impossible to eat for both. A Google for LDL lowering foods suggests oats, beans, bananas! All things I would ordinarily avoid to keep my glucose in check.
I’ve also got reflux to throw in to the mix, which means I am having to cut out a lot of my favourites, onions etc.
To those trying to keep their cholesterol and glucose in good shape, what do you find yourself eating for meals?
I feel overwhelmed.
