Er, aah, I forgot to look for the exercises. [mumble, mumble, embarrassed mumble] :-)

A long time ago my doctor tried to convince me to take statins and I said, quoting from Amy Winehouse, "No! No! No!".

Starting way way back when I read about the perils of high carb, high fat diets, and then reading the late lamented Dr Mosley and watching his fantastic TV shows especially about the 5:2 diet, I have built my nutrition around low fat, low sugars, low carbs, and more healthy proteins including legumes and a balanced amount of meat & eggs. Pretty much a Mediterranean diet, really. My recent blood test showed that although my cholesterol reading was 5, my good cholesterol was high so the doc was happy.
