I am no hurry to be on statins and agree with the inflamitory aspect. I do not drink but have upped my carbs to 40 to 50 a day, as I am closer to maintenance. Mostly the increase was in the form of dairy...more half in half, or heavy cream, sour cream, and cream cheese.
Thanks all for your thoughts it gives a lot of ammo when going into the doc...I wouldn't be so worried if the ldl hadn't increased by almost 100 points in a year.
What are some inflammatory conditions I should be looking for.
