Hey guys,
I am not new to Keto as I have been on a keto lifestyle (for the most part) for about 4 years now, and although I will admit I won’t be as strict consistently as some of you folks on here I do stay low carb and then periods of strict keto at times. But I won’t lie, I have not been strict enough, too many days of ‘dirty keto’ and too many days of 'just some more carbs won’t hurt.
Basically, I need to basically cop on and either do keto all in or not at all because long term I might do more damage than good?. I am concerned that through laziness or taking my eye off the ball I could see some negative sides of not doing keto correctly and ill health. That and my doctor has been nagging me and is against keto.
Any time I would get blood results over the past few years my doctor would be concerned about my cholesterol levels and most recently my creatine levels
I was advised that a normal healthy level for a man is 85µmol/L but since my keto journey my levels average 100-120µmol/L
And my Lipods to date
Date | Chol | Tri | LDL | Adrenals |
---|---|---|---|---|
Aug-18 | 7.3 | 1.46 | 5.3 | |
Feb-20 | 6.5 | 1.34 | 4.7 | |
May-21 | 5.9 | 2.15 | 4.9 | 124µmol/L |
Nov-21 | 7.2 | 2.29 | 3.8 | 116µmol/L |
May-22 | 6.1 | 2.52 | 4.1 | 104µmol/L |
My question is, what do you think of my bloods? Do I need to change things quickly or is my doc being dramatic? If the later, what advice should I bring to my doctor? because she has booked me in to see a specalist on this…
Either way, I plan on doing extensive research on these forums and really following a strict plan going forward. Thanks for any advice guys.
