Dropped cholesterol and triglycerides!!
Posted Thursday, September 20, 2012 at 2:51 PM
I had to share that since I restarted my vegan diet, my cholesterol dropped over 30 points and my triglycerides over 40! I had slipped into a vegetarian diet for several months this winter and wound up with high cholesterol and triglycerides and now I am doing so much better! I'm really motivated again and hope this encourages anyone who may have some of these issues. 2 doctors who wanted me to go on medication, were pleasantly surprised in what I was able to accomplish in 6 weeks! (I went back to being vegan a few weeks before the 21 day kickstart!)

I STARTED KICKSTART A BIT LATE....A WEEK LATE. I HAVE/HOPEFULLY HAD AGINA AND HAD TO TAKE A SUB-LINGUAL NITRO BEFORE I WOULD WALK OUT THE DOOR. BUT HONESTLY, THE PAST 2 WEEKS HAVE GIVEN ME A NEW LEASE ON LIFE. I COULD NOT BELIEVE THE DIFFERENCE COULD SHOW UP SO SOON. NO ANIMAL PRODUCTS WHATSOEVER. LOTS OF VEGGIES AND I TRIED BROWN RICE..ALTHOUGH I STILL HAVE A HARD TIME WITH CARBS, AS I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN AFRAID OF THEM CAUSE OF WEIGHT. I DO NOT, HOWEVER HAVE A REGULAR BM...AND THIS CONCERNS ME. ANY SUGGESTIONS....
