I had a similar experience, except with blood pressure. After switching to a plant based diet, it’s the lowest it’s been in my adult life.

- drewg123 2y agoFor me it was both.. I had pretty bad BP and high enough cholesterol to that my doctor wanted me on a statin. Now my BP is normal, and my cholesterol is in the "low risk" range. My doctor said she'd never seen such an improvement before. In my case it was not the suggestion of a doctor, but rather dating and now marrying a vegan. I converted to a plant based diet starting with eating plant based just with her, and then I became fully vegan for health reasons.
- apwell23 2y agowere the results from cutting out carbs in plant based diet. could you have achieved same thing with animal based low carb diet?
- christophilus 2y agoIn my case, I didn’t cut carbs. Quite the opposite. The diet could be described as high carb.
