70 year old female. Have my diabetes under control with no meds and Keto/low carb diet. Had stress test and heart cath and ended up two days ago with a heart stent. Now doing low carb/low fat (South Beach original Heart Diet). My cholesterol had been coming down over past two years without statins. HDL/LDL ratio was 3 (<5 is where they want it). Feeling very down, but determined to get my heart healthier and no more stents!
