In just 3 months [View all]

I lowered my cholesterol from 270 to 112. Doc said he has never seen anything like it before. Best part, I went on a diet with lots of fat. Everything cooked in bacon grease, lots of cheese and eggs. I just cut out sugar, potatoes, rice and white flour.
I had stopped my chol. meds because of my feet being numb and 3 months ago I again started back with a different med. Also joined a gym and did a lot of pedaling. Lost 10 pounds.
