The question is how much his cholesterol would have dropped on a more reasonable diet.Mrs/Dr. Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09479965858179718455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26981669.post-73313882645536765572010-11-09T17:04:24.218-06:002010-11-09T17:04:24.218-06:00Weight loss is easy math - consume less calories t...Weight loss is easy math - consume less calories than you use.

Studies find that egg intake is not well correlated, and also that those on the Atkins diet have better cholesterol as a result.<br /><br />It would be interesting to see whether these serum cholesterol improvements correlate well with weight loss. I would have to assume that blood flowing through my ample fatty tissues might have something to do with my personal cholesterol level, and perhaps reducing the ampleness of that tissue could be helpful.Bike Bubbahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08193546045614393425noreply@blogger.com
