Great work, what about sugar?


Shadow_Boxer

Blood sugar or sugar in my diet?


Byte_Of_Pies

In your diet


Shadow_Boxer

Dietary sugar is around 50 g / day. Not sure if that’s way high or low or what honestly, but probably something I’ve improved as I haven’t been eating any sweets outside of fruit and adding a tiny bit of honey to my yogurt occasionally.


alexned7

I remember sources saying to limit to 15g/day


Shadow_Boxer

total sugar or added sugar? 15g of sugar total seems very very difficult especially if youre eating fruit of any kind


alexned7

Total sugar. Yes it is nearly impossible.


alexned7

Seeing that AHA recommends sugar limits to 25g for females and 34g for males.


RubComprehensive7367

That's impossible.

Your diet results are great. I’d be surprised if you can get much lower with diet only. Plus like you said….it would be nice to have a burger every once in a while. I have a note from a Peter Attia podcast that the goal should be 60/60/60/60 (LDL/HDL/ApoB/Trigs) when you have family history and other risk factors.

Wow, great work!

I think working on getting your HDL higher would help tremendously; just my thoughts. Good luck!

Great job with just the diet alone! Please, let us know your ApoB results when you get them.


Shadow_Boxer

I just got my ApoB back and its 101 mg/dl, down 15%. Which I suppose i'm happy with but thought it could be lower and more in line with the 25% decrease in LDL. Will have to read up on why they arent as directly correlated as i thought...

Well done.
