Guest guest Posted July 23, 2003 Report Share Posted July 23, 2003 My last cholesterol was 130 and my triglycerides 70. To raise my triglycerides and therefore thinking capacity my naturopath told me to increase carbs like pasta and bread, neither of which I eat more than once or twice a week, if that. You might try that. __ IncrediMail - Email has finally evolved - Click Here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 24, 2003 Report Share Posted July 24, 2003 Hi, There is good cholesterol and bad cholesterol. There is NO cholesterol at all in vgan food. The body makes its own , but you can make it make more by eating saturated fat such as peanut butter, avocado etc. Persian On Wed, Jul 23, 2003 at 08:18:05AM -0400, Michele wrote: > does anyone else have low cholesterol? when i first became a vegan four > years ago mine was way too low but then i tried to eat fattening foods > (which goes against the grain) and it became normal again. now, it's > getting low again. any suggestions on raising my cholesterol (so ironic, i > think, for an american to be asking) > michele > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 24, 2003 Report Share Posted July 24, 2003 How about eating more avocados? Guacamole is great for lunch and dinner. --- Michele <mkrugh wrote: > does anyone else have low cholesterol? when i first > became a vegan four > years ago mine was way too low but then i tried to > eat fattening foods > (which goes against the grain) and it became normal > again. now, it's > getting low again. any suggestions on raising my > cholesterol (so ironic, i > think, for an american to be asking) > michele > > ______________________ Want to chat instantly with your online friends?
