So to date I have been whole food plant based for a little over 8 months. I haven't been perfect but I'll score it at about 95%
I am off of my cholesterol medication total cholesterol down from 235 to 192. I do not miss the muscle soreness from the statins. My Dr has halved my hypertension meds. To be honest I haven't taken them in over a month and I monitor my blood pressure at home and it's pretty solid at 118/ 74 with a slight downward trend still happening before I was on average 125 over 80 something with the meds
I wasn't trying to lose weight but I have lost 8 lbs and my body fat went from 11% to just under 10% I had some persistent acne on my scalp that is gone too.
I have energy to spare as well.
I think I'll stick with it
