Ken, diagnosed with high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, and taking several medications, shares his transformation through Maximized Living with Dr. BJ Hardick. www.DrHardick.com www.MaximizedLiving.com Ken's story, in his own words: WHAT WAS YOUR CONDITION? High Blood Pressure 231/119 Arthritis This caused problems doing normal things like washing my car, gardening, and even trying to get a good rest. This time last year, I couldnt bend down to zip up my boots. Diabetes when I was first diagnosed, my blood sugar was 28.5. Total Cholesterol 8.2 WHAT STEPS HAD YOU PREVIOUSLY TAKEN TO GET WELL? High Blood Pressure: I was put on Altace: 5 mg, then 10 mg. and then 15 mg. Although these medications helped somewhat, my numbers were still fluctuating. Changes to my diet helped very little. Arthritis I was put on Naprosyn, which made my stomach ache, so I was put on another medication to take 1 hour before the Naprosyn to coat my stomach. After one year of this, and not much relief, my medication was changed to Celebrex, which did not help either. In between doses, I would take Tylenol Arthritis pills, as well. Diabetes I was put on 500 mg. of Metformin, twice per day. Through the Lawson clinic, I was put on a very strict diet. I did well on this for some time, but I could not hold the numbers down. I then went to 1000 mg of Metformin, twice per day. Soon, Avandia was added to my regimen at 2 mgs, twice per day, then increased to 4 mgs, twice per day.

* First my apologies that Pinnacle Studios screwed up the audio - video sync at the end (7:40). I tried redoing the video three times, but the same out of sync happened each time.* In this video, I deal with another one of the myths that Atkins Diet increases one's cholesterol level due to its saturated fats. This misconception has been proven false over and over in many different studies. At very least, here is my anecdotal evidence. My Cholesterol (Starting to Now) Total Cholesterol - 198 to 153 LDL Cholesterol - 148 to 95 HDL Cholesterol - 35 to 58 Triglycerides - 135 to 43 What's Good and Bad? cholesterol.emedtv.com "It is the ratio between the level of HDL-"good" cholesterol and total cholesterol that we need to be concerned about. Therefore, in adults, the HDL-"good" cholesterol/total cholesterol ratio should be higher than 0.24 (just divide your HDL level by your cholesterol). Generally speaking, the higher the ratio, the better (the lower your risk of a heart attack)." Mine - .61 This popular medical belief ignores however that all LDL molecules are not necessarily created equal. "It appears common for people with high triglycerides to have low HDL's, and these same people also tend to have high levels of clotting factors in their blood stream, which is unhealthy in protecting against heart disease.
