Is your dietary restriction list from a doctor or internet research?
I would definitely consult with your doctor and not apply general study conclusions to your own diet considering you had a heart attack recently.

- ballenf 6y agoI think your advice comes from a good place, but it really depends on the doctor. I’ve worked closely with bunch of primary care doctors and would only trust 1 in about 10 of them to give good nutrition advice. My work involved careful review of their clinical treatment of patients in a primary care settings. My anecdotal experience with cardiologists is no better. The overall issue is that they have grown tired of really challenging patients to change much of their diets. Even if the diet is what is really killing them. And I don’t blame them, but I also think that many doctors don’t see nutrition as part of their job.
- blakesterz 6y agoFair question, and I guess the answer is both. He didn't provide any advice that seemed bad, he didn't say avoid eggs, he didn't say have bacon with every meal. But I've also been reading everything I can to make sure I'm not missing anything.
