Jeff's log includes all of these values making it a consultant's dream.

Working with a client like Jeff on the Fountain of Youth Project is wonderful. He is motivated, hungry for knowledge, and willing to do what is necessary to improve his health and life. Jeff makes tracking changes and prescribing dietary, exercise, medication changes easier and a pleasure. There is no complaining or deception. He puts all he does in his log and makes everything accessible to me - the good, the bad, and the ugly. It is all there. All I need to make an informed decision on how to treat his condition. Not only that, he is willing to constantly change items if necessary to get his blood values and disease markers in check. The latest issue we are working to get in line is his blood triglyceride values. Since getting off Lipitor we gotten Jeff's total-, LDL-, and HDL- cholesterol levels in line. Even after a slight rebound they have stabilized at a very healthy levels with total cholesterol below 145 mg/dl and an LDL-cholesterol consistently below 61 mg/dl. His triglyceride levels are another story. They are above the optimal level of 150 mg/dl and have ranged from 205 to 330 mg/dl. One possibility is his extremely low total fat diet. I wrote a post on the <A href="http://blogsite.com/item/109896">rebound of blood lipids following a low-fat diet</A> which occurs in some individuals. So, I will modify Jeff's diet and increase his monounsaturated fat intake to see if that makes a difference in his triglyceride levels. I am sure Jeff will have no problem making the changes necessary to his diet to see if this is the case. Jeff follows his nutrient and exercise prescriptions to a "t" and is enthusiastic about it the whole time. He is a pleasure to work with and hard for my other clients to match. 10 application/xml false diet disease markers exercise Fountain of Youth Project HDL-cholesterol health LDL-cholesterol Lipitor triglycerides Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1) 68.5.249.130 68.5.249.130 DrEric false true false false true 205857 false false true false false false true 104505 blog blogsite/SeniorSafety/web
