In response to the Heart Scan Blog post, Post-Traumatic Grain Disorder, Anne commented:
While on the American Heart Association diet my lipids peaked in 2003. I even tried the Ornish diet for a short time, but found it impossible.
Total Cholesterol: 201 Triglycerides: 263 HDL: 62 LDL: 86
After I stopped eating gluten (I am very sensitive), my lipid panel improved slightly. This past year I started eating to keep my blood sugar under control by eliminating sugars and other grains. Now this is my most recent lab:
Total Cholesterol: 162 Triglycerides: 80 HDL: 71 LDL: 75
