When folloing a low carb diet, how conterproductive is using Avalide which includes 12.5 mgs of diuretic in it and using crestor for cholesterol reduction? i have followed low carb diets with much success in the past. but this time around i lost about 15 lbs and stopped losing. the only difference is i am taking blood pressure and cholesterol medications
How long ago did you successfully use the Low Carb diet? Age can have a major effect on your metabolism. And judging from the drugs you are on – I would say you don’t exercise much. If you are eating the same amounts as you did back then and are at the same activity level, then I would say your metabolism has naturally decreased over time. It is time to get back in the gym, and exercise (with your doctors approval) to boost your metabolism – it is something you should be doing anyways.
There should be no impact, you should continue to use your drugs as prescribed…
That shouldn’t be the case…the cholesterol level should go down as well. Hi protein is actually high in cholesterol but it should not be enough to trigger a high cholesterol in you. Naturally, humans produce their own cholesterol even without eating high cholesterol foods. However, by eating sugar (carbohydrates), it tends to shoot up to the ceiling…Therefore, by following the low-carb, high protein diet…not only you are going to lose weight, you will also have lower blood sugar count (good for diabetics) and controled cholesterol levels.
Forget carbs and go with fuel injection!
Ask how counterproductive it is to use a low carb diet, and take the prescribed medications.
