Question on cholesterol levels.
I have no idea what my cholesterol levels were before I started the
Atkins diet. I started out Atkins, then switched to paleo.
On the atkins diet my total cholesterol was 49. I had to read that
number to my (cardiologist) aunt several times before she would believe
me. Now that I am on paleo, it has gone up to 115.
"Normal" appears to be anything below 200, so I'm not worried. Are
there problems associated with low cholesterol? Is 115 a typical number
for all you paleo people out there? Haven't had it checked in years...
I've been on paleo for about 4 years now.
