Blood results in August scared the crap out of me so I immediately switched to almost entirely vegan (I’ve been vegetarian for nearly 20 years). I drastically cut saturated fat (including coconut oil) to less than 7 grams per day, lost weight (25 lbs) and reduced alcohol intake. I also started treating mild hypothyroidism and took vitamin D and omega 3 supplements.
Meals consisted of high fiber and Whole Foods plant based as much as possible – oatmeal, Ezekiel toast, almond butter, tofu, vegetables, beans and lentils, etc.
This way of eating really helped!
