Confused about Atkins and Cholesterol

[love777]

I have read many posts of people who are on the diet and say their numbers are high and then other posts saying this diet will lower it?

Re: Confused about Atkins and Cholesterol

Yes... you'll find that nearly everyone's cholesterol profile improves eating the Atkins way. Dr Atkins was a cardiologist and developed his diet with his patients in mind.

Actually, lots of health "numbers" improve with this way of eating: Cholesterol, blood pressure, blood sugar.

The best thing is to have blood work done before starting, and then again after a while (minimum six weeks) on the diet. The changes often, are astounding.
