I’ve been on Keto for about 6 months now and lost just over 14lbs in that time (about 7lbs since Christmas) and now weigh 185lbs at 6ft 1" with blood pressure at around 130 / 69 (throughout my life it has always been higher and this is the lowest it’s been). As an aside, I have also stopped having migraines, stopped bleeding gums, no more acid reflux, better bowels with no bloating and less gas and joint pains improved. I also have almost no seasonal winter psoriasis which is a first for ~20 years! I feel great but see the measurements below!
I am 45 and have an average activity level living on a smallholding.
I just had a Medichecks test which included cholesterol and the following measurements came back:-
The results came in mmol/l and I converted them using an online converter.
The question is, according to the levels am I actually dead, because they look pretty awful?!
Trig 542.07 mg/dl or 6.12 mmol/l
Overall 450.12 or 11.64
HDL 51.82 or 1.34
LDL no measure because Trig to high!
