I was told I have to get my LDL down. Stem cells in the marrow evidently can either turn into osteoblasts or adipocytes and too many adipocytes means weak (fatty) bones. I think lowering LDL is necessary for my bones but my numbers are ok for my heart. I understand it can take 6-12 months to show a change in cholesterol via diet. I plan to try that first and think about drugs if that doesn’t work.
It is very helpful to hear about drugs and dietary changes others have used. I appreciate all the excellent discussion and support. It is difficult to find lean, low carb snacks, especially portable ones.
