I don't agree with all the opinion which is why I gave it only 3 stars. Despite Atkins diet I have not had a level glucose as Paul suggests would be okay. I am healthy because I take statin and keep my LDLp below 750. If you have a low level of LDL particles it doesn't really matter how many of them are small in size. I advised CAC for my patients with one risk factor. Paul agrees with me. Paul gets yearly CIMT on his patients to monitor progress of plaque. I asked patients to get them every 2 years. It's good to see academic Australia being open to Low Carbohydrate High Fat diet. Look forward to see how many patients in Dr Mason's clinic maintain their weight for 5-10 years.
