It really stinks. I'm glad to see you wrote this. Sure it may not change things, but I think they should hear all of those words. I think the letter was respectful and honest, not the least bit bitter.

I eat tons of spinach -- probably a few cups' worth per day; it's one of my favorite foods. I also eat raisins -- less often, not daily, but frequently. VERY interesting! And limiting wheat is also interesting. Thus far I've been more successful at adding beans rather than limiting oils, but limiting wheat may be something I try as well.

I hope you enjoy Beijing anyway.
Al...Awww bummer.<br /><br />I hope you enjoy Beijing anyway.<br /><br />Also, I was thinking about your bloodwork in the shower this morning. (What, I do my best thinking in there :))<br /><br />For your iron levels, maybe eat a little less spinach and/or raisins? Tahini, etc. I found this link for you. http://www.healthaliciousness.com/articles/food-sources-of-iron.php<br /><br />As for the cholesterol- I don't think I would limit oils. If I were to limit anything, I would probably limit wheat. Just a hunch.<br /><br />As fit and active and healthful as you are, I almost thought that maybe they gave you the wrong results!EmilyTheGoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06907057163387821135noreply@blogger.com
