Hi i am 30 years old 5'6" 57 kilos.
I was diagnosed with very high
cholestrol (ldl187) few months back and was put on statin.but 4 statins i tried i was intolerent to it. Used to give me horrible side effects dizziness ,muscule pain/fatigue/aches,limb termors.. So against g.ps advice i decided to go off statins.. I controlled my diet and started walking an hour a day atleast.
Few changes i made were : stopped butter cheese deep fried pastries,biscuits,chocolates,cold drinks,potato chips viz lays
Replaced with : dry fruit nuts,fruits,dark chocolate(72% coca),olive oil salad,oats,digestive biscuits(one in a while),peanuts,bengal gram
Also decided to skip carb,oil diet on thursdays and stick to salads,soup,oats (with daal maybe)instead.
I got my
lipid profile done after 7 weeks and
ldl is 110.
I need tips to further reduce/maintain it via diet.
Suggest cheat foods that will help me go off someControl but doesnt affect cholestrol much.(some chips,candies,snacks etc)
