I am looking for some sort of solution to my mothers problem. She has been told she has high cholesterol (7) and needs to lose about 7 lbs and lower it. This is fine however I am concerned about the diet she is on. It seems to be extremely low in fat and I find she has replaced sweet food such as cakes with fat free food that is loaded with chemicals and sugar. She is taking HRT and carries most of her weight on her boobs and then her tummy (like I do ). I feels she would really benefit from a moderate carb diet, increase her fat a bit and get rid of SUGAR completely. However, I need hard evidence and experience from all of you. Can anyone reccomend any simple (LOL) articles on sugar and refined carbs reduction resulting in lower cholesterol and weight loss. Also, what plans would suit her since she is only a teensy bit overweight but DOES need to lower her cholesterol.


Thanks!
