Heh, at least the beans and tofu are good for me. I hate shopping, I hate cooking, and I only buy vegan food so I'm never going to be low-carb, but the funny thing is that I also have high cholesterol because my own body makes way too much of it.

    It's still possible! https://www.dietdoctor.com/low-carb/vegan

    high cholesterol

    This could be a early indicator of cardio vascular issues (especially if you also have hyper tension). Next time you go to the doctor ask to get a CAC score (calcium imaging in your arteries), its relatively inexpensive (100-200 USD) and tells you about your immediate cardiovascular risk. Alternatively you could look at your TG/HDL ratio as a indirect proxy to determine if the cholesterol is pattern A (non-damaged)
