Guest guest Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 well done! it's great to show doctors what an impact diet can have - maybe they'll eventually start recommending it to their other patients! alice On 18 Mar 2008, at 09:03, nlfraley35 wrote: > I found out that my cholesterol is 14 points lower.

In the meantime, double-check your diet for added oils and fats that could be holding back the progress, including fat grams in any packaged foods. And, if possible, consider increasing your physical activity since that helps to raise HDL. Keep on keeping on with the low-fat vegan eating! Here's to your health!

Guest guest Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 Does any know if when "they" say that fermented soy products are "safe" from some of the issues of soy. is soy yogurt considered fermented? References would be ideal. many thanks!!
