I have been doing Keto Green and now my labs say my cholesterol is high and my Dr wants to put me on statins. What can I do?Updated a year ago

 The Keto-Green diet has been shown to help with the underlying issues that cause high cholesterol: things like insulin resistance, low levels of growth hormone, and gut dysbiosis. In this podcast, Dr. Anna explains that we should be addressing the underlying issues regarding high cholesterol because cholesterol is necessary to make hormones and taking statins makes the hormonal imbalance worse. Check out the podcast from about 20:45 - 23:10 or so. For further information, look for "cholesterol" in the index of The Hormone Fix and Keto-Green 16. https://drannacabeca.com/blogs/podcast/transformational-nutrition-making-health-easy-breezy-and-practical-in-a-way-that-makes-plain-sense?fbclid=IwAR2AL9jPzs0phk8G5mR5AAMQlb-ukRN5SkJcnt8thY2uaFiLwcLI9evWbPg


You can also watch this Q&A call with Dr. Anna which addresses cholesterol from about 54:40 - 55:30. But definitely watch the rest of it if you are interested in testing, food sensitivities, and more. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mTA-WKQ9x9U
