[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Get a calcium score test. If your triglycerides are low, it offers a protection against high levels. I have genetic high cholesterol and my calcium score was 0 meaning none of it was sticking to my arterial walls[/quote] Good advice. You seem like you may be increased risk for diabetes since nobody with your lifestyle should have high glucose. So, I’d also try to delay the statin as long as you can since those can trigger diabetes. [b]Maybe also try a continuous glucose monitor[/b] to learn what foods are spiking yours. Maybe you actually need more fat and protein with your carbs.[/quote] I was going to suggest this, too. I know it’s the “I’m above fad diets” received wisdom that all fruits and vegetables and whole grains are always good, but certain foods spike some people’s blood sugar. [/quote]
