I am stunned by my latest lab test results
A month ago my lipid profile was all over the place..Nothing was in the "normal" range.
The most concerning were the Triglycerides..They were ~ 265 and 6 months prioe to that it was around ~ 220.I was passing through the most stressful period of my life that time.
About me : I have been a vegan for almost 8 years now.45M..never smoked and stopped drinking around 15 years ago. no high BP or diabetes..
A month ago I decided to take matters seriously..I completely cut out refined carbs, increased protein intake by 3x times( from all possible vegan sources) and started taking fish oil tablets(though being vegan unfortunately I had no choice) and started some serious physical activities.I weight around 68kgs now down from 72 kgs I was month ago.thanks to rigorous intermittent fasting 3 times a week.
I got my blood work done today exactly 32 days after my last blood work but this time from a different lab and to my utter surprise all the values are now in the normal range..it's so difficult to believe the results that I have started to suspect a possibility of lab error 😁😁.Only red flags are my HDL 's..they are down from 39 to 31.
Attached are screenshots of both reports
