regarding low carbohydrate and high fat diet

[coolaman]

it is understood that taking low carbohydrates will help improve diabetes but will high fat diet not increase the cholestrol levels for a person having retinopathy and taking atorvastatin for cholestrol......my fathers cholestrol is within margins so he stopped taking atorvastatin bec of high side effects of it but it was noticed that his retinopathy deteriorated by stopping the medicine instead of cholestrol within limits......can any body tell any natural substitute for statin drug and can any expert on the forum tell whether high fat diet can affect retinopathy?????????

Diabetic retinopathy is caused by high blood glucose .Control blood glucose - control retinopathy .Proven remedy - switch to LCHF .LCHF will moderate your cholesterol levels also

what is LCHF?

Low carb high fat diet will not worsen cholesterol issue. Actually it improves. Add green vegetables like lettuce, broccoli etc to food.
