Guest guest Posted September 6, 2000 Report Share Posted September 6, 2000 Bob, That is great. Hopefully those on this list can share with your good news. I hope some of them were helpful in your new knowledge of what you need to do to keep those scores in a positive range. -moderator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 6, 2000 Report Share Posted September 6, 2000 Bob, very good results. I went to look for the laboratory results interpretation page I had, and it has vanished. I'll search some. I think some use of olive oil for cooking may help the cholesterol ratio. Think I heard that. Low carb wins again.

Guest guest Posted September 7, 2000 Report Share Posted September 7, 2000 Sam, I use olive oil and rice vinegar as salad dressing. I get the extra virgin olive oil for the flavor....come to think of it, that's why I get the rice vinegar. I get it seasoned and with red peppers. Bob E Levy wrote: > Bob, very good results.

I'll have to try the rice vinegar with red peppers... my husband would love it! I love the extra virgin olive oil. I buy a big jug of a good brand at Sam's, and I use it all up before it spoils.

I'll have to look for it the next time we go shopping.... can't get it in town. We live in a small town with only one grocery store -- doubt if they have rice vinegar. Sounds good :-) Sandy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
