Thank you! LDL 198 to 46 mg/DL in 3 months.

Firstly, I want to say thank you to this sub and all the people that post here. You might have saved my Life. If I continued on the path I was taking, I might have had a heart attack/ stroke in a few decades. Now I feel like I have control over my health and I can mitigate the risks.

I (35, M) managed to Lower my LDL from 198mg/dl to 46mm/dl in three months thanks to the advice and support given to other posters. (Science based and no fearmongering about proven medications)

Three months ago, I went to my first general checkup with lab test. I had been eating well, or so I thought. No a dded sugar for a year and a lot of running. BMI was barely overweight. And I got a chock. LDL almost 200mg/dl.  I started to read a lot and luckily, I found this Subreddit. Before I had listened to all the Youtubers/ Keto fanatics that keep on twisting science so it fits their worldview. I was eating a lot of butter/milk and meat and so on. There is probably a genetic component in me that raises cholesterol but this diet didn’t help.

With the advices given here I Changed my Diet and I took the statins that was recommended to me (Atorvastatin 20mg).

Now I eat what you guys recommend. A lot of different Vegetables and fruits. Avocado, nuts, olive oil, salmon, Chicken breast. Spelt Pasta and Wild rice in moderation. Everyday a glass of water with psyllium husk. For breakfast: oats with chia, cinnamon, flaxseed, raisins and berries.  If I feel like something sweet, I Have some dates with natural peanut butter. (Frozen) very tasty.  I lost 15kg (33 Lbs.) in the process.

I feel amazing and soon I will be off to check my CAC score. Thank you once again to all the posters in this sub.
