my sister became a vegan because of their cholesterol level, but after three months of their still high?
his level was 287 260 and is still considered high, she can not take medicines to lower because of his kidney condition, why is this strict diet do not work for a drink without she does and has seen a couple of nutrutionist, I remember telling her to stay away from coconut and other plant stuff that is high in calories and chlestorol
Three months is not long enough to see a significant drop. I think she is doing well for the first three months. You did not say if she is eating dairy products. Since you did not say I'm assuming it's vegan. Besides cutting the saturated fat of animal origin, there are other things you can do. 1. See all the fat and try to limit strictly dairy products, due to its high levels of fat. Things like fat free yogurt, etc. are fine. 2. When added fat should be used for things like toast, sautéed vegetables and only use light olive oil. This is not light in calories or fat but the taste, which makes it suitable for any use. With appropriate herbs of spices is great, even vegetables. 3. Try not to use any margarine. When absolutely necessary use the Smart Balance with Flax Oil. Helps reduce cholesterol. 4. Limit your intake of carbohydrates (especially white foods like potatoes, rice and pasta), avoid high sugar fruits and vegetables and avoid sugar. It's the carbs that cause havoc in their triglycerides. There is a brand of pasta (Dreamfields) which is extremely low in carbohydrates and works well with all the vegetables eating. Tastes like the real deal. I had high cholesterol and was on Atkins, she can not do so due to kidney problems, but my triglycerides was from 600 to 43 by cutting carbs. My HDL cholesterol was from 29 to 89. She has the challenging task ahead of it, but give it time. When done by altering of the diet that takes longer than with drugs. The most important things to do is look at all your fat intake and try to limit fats added to the mono-unsaturated as olive oil. It will also help raise your HDL cholesterol while lowering LDL.
