hi Sallie,

the good news is you can relax. Most people havea decrease in cholestoral on a LC diet. The reason being is that your body uses insulin to make cholestoral. It is one of the functions of insulin.

On a LC diet we limit the insulin in our system so there is no mechanism to turn the dietary fat into cholesterol.

I personally have not stats to share with you but there are many people here who can boast improved figures.
