  The Portfolio Diet worked for me. It’s been easy to incorporate and I got amazing results in less than six months! My LDL went down 32% (168 to 113), total cholesterol down 27% (283 to 206) and triglycerides 57% (105 to 60). I didn’t adhere to the diet 100% but rather swapped out one or two meals a day. Here is a typical what I eat in a day: breakfast I have steel cut oats with soy milk, blueberries, apples, nuts and seeds. For lunch a bowl of lentils, black beans, chickpeas, purple sweet potato, edamame, avocado, hummus, arugula and broccoli with olive oil and vinegar. And for dinner salmon, brown rice, steamed broccoli with hummus and miso soup with spinach and tofu. I didn’t cut out red meat or dairy, just reduced it. I still eat out a few times a week.

  I eat the right fat - evoo, lard, pork belly with skin, tallow, butter, sardines, mackerel - and a lot of it but my LDL is increasing ever since I doubled or tripled my animal intake (meat, fish, eggs) and is the only marker out of whack. I can't be bothered as LDL doesn't tell me anything about my cardiovascular health. I've asked my GP to stop testing for it as it was me who requested a lipid profile in the first place.

  I don&apos;t usually make comments on diet (or watch this channel) and i am a lay person. I clicked on the video because of the title. I can only say from my own personal experience it is very easy to follow and i had no idea about the percentages of fat, protein etc, i just follow the 4 simple pillars of the diet: <br><br>1. Plant Proteins mainly with an emphasis on soya protein, this naturally reduces saturated fat <br>2. Viscous fiber 20g, oats, barley, psyllium, apples etc. they help bind cholesterol in the gut<br>3. Nuts/seeds/nut butters to around 45g daily<br>4. Plant Sterols, 2g daily. I&apos;m in the UK and can easily get a cheap supplement that covers this.<br><br>You can eat whatever you want as long as one covers the above pillars first. I have been on this diet for nearly two years and I have seen a big improvement in my lipid profile, something that has not happened in decades of trying with diet. I find the diet (or way of eating) enjoyable and i suppose that&apos;s the main point, if one is miserable on a diet it is impossible to stick to. I&apos;m not trying to persuade anybody to try it, but rather just to gently suggest it is easy to follow (if you don&apos;&apos;t mind soya). I eat meat/fish and do my best to avoid UPF, so this diet is very flexible too.

  As someone who tries to be primarily plant-based with high fiber and high protein as well, this is very interesting info to me, thank you so much for sharing!
