[quote=Anonymous]I had borderline high LDL a year ago. I was already exercising a lot and was not overweight. I focused on minimizing saturated fat intake. I read every food label and when I go to a restaurant I order the entrees with the lowest saturated fat. When I go to a party or social function, quite often this means not eating anything. I almost always avoid ice cream, butter, cheese, meat, etc. It was a bit of an adjustment at first, but I have gotten used to it and my efforts have paid off. My LDL went from 158 to 105 in a year. There is definitely a genetic component and it just means some of us have to work harder at this than others. I am very grateful that I do not need medication. [/quote]
