Okay and interesting to note. Thanks for the info.
I know it drops your weight, but what does it do to your Homocysteine levels, Triglycerides, Cholesterol and Prolipoprotein levels?

My dr didn't test my prolipoprotein levels or my homocysteine levels. but my cholesterol and triglycerides are envious for any 40 year old. (And are better than they were a year ago.)
So here's my question to you: You've asked many people on this thread to ask their doctors what they would think of this diet. When I hold my paw up and say, "My doctor PUT me on this diet," you push for more.
My health energy and vitality are higher than they've been in years. I *feel* better. Does that make a difference to you?
Obviously, my doctor doesn't think that my prolipoprotein or homocysteine levels are that important and didn't test for them. Are you telling me that you are more of an expert than my doctor who just (6 weeks ago) performed a complete physical (with blood work) on me and pronounced me in excellent health?
Sprite, you've obviously got an ax to grind. I believe that my diet is the best one that I've found for *me*. For my body. If you've had better results by eating another way - more power to you. But you shouldn't go around telling other people how their body would best respond to food. And you definitely shouldn't go around trashing a diet that has saved lives (mine included).
If you don't want to eat low carb, don't do it. Nobody is forcing you.
But nobody is going to convince me to eat any other way.
As I said above....generally, Atkins or Caveman diet IMPROVES cholesterol, triglycerides and homocysteine for MOST people....don’t know about the prolipoprotein....as I also said...PEOPLE ARE DIFFERENT.
