When I recently got a life insurance policy they took some blood work and my cholesterol was high, I explained to them it’s because I’m doing keto lifestyle (keto diet – whatever you want to call it). Didn’t matter to them, my policy is higher because I am healthy w/high (as their standard goes) cholesterol numbers.
Give it time. Frequently cholesterol will lower over several months. Mine and my husband’s are perfect!
Oh I know. I just think its a messed up situation – – – because “the numbers” are a little high.
After eating completely Keto for one year, my LDL (bad cholesterol) dropped 60 points! Same for triglycerides and blood pressure. Luckily, my doctor knows that I will not take statins, and is in complete agreement that Keto is the way to go.
