An interesting site, with lots of food for thought. I wondered about
the statement that potatoes
were low in carbs, however. They are extremely high: 1/2 cup cooked is
15 grams of carbs.
The best weight loss I ever had was with a 70% fat diet, keeping carbs
under 40 gr daily.

I would also be very interested in this subject. My husband has been
told he has high Lp(a). A doc
put him on megadoses of Niacin, not a good idea in my opinion.
