by your profile, were not on a Low Carb diet at the time of these tests, and your tests results look average for a standard American Diet. Both the glucose and c-peptide are within "Normal range" by most lab reference ranges. Over 100 fasting blood glucose is the beginning of "pre-diabetes" so her concerns seem conservative. However the AST and ALT are elevated and you should follow up on those. http://www.wheatbellyblog.com/2012/...r-liver-is-fat/
There are many articles about reversing NAFLD with a low carb diet, (quickly too, http://www.drbriffa.com/2011/03/04/...t-of-the-liver/) the low fat diet doesn't help. A friend has NAFLD, I have sent her many LC articles over the years .
The cholesterol numbers you have shared are also not way out of range, but should be better on a low carb diet. According to my doctor (Cholesterol Clarity), the optimal levels would be under 70 for Trigs, over 70 for HDL, or a ratio of 1. Easily doable for you with a low carb diet, and the diet will helpthe PCOS. Consider following the DANDR Induction rules, maybe longer than two weeks, to help reverse the NAFLD.
