Where can I get the cookbook. I came across you video right after my doctor put me on cholesterol meds. I don’t want to take meds. So I’m glad I saw your video
Thank you so much. I had a bad reaction to cholesterol meds with in a couple hours. Thank god I found you. I went from 248 to 163 in 1 month. My Dr was so shocked. I’m looking forward getting your cookbook.
I finally went to the doctor after years and discovered my cholesterol is VERY HIGH! I just graduated culinary school, learned techniques but haven’t focused on nutrition yet. I’m tickled to discover your channel and I’ll be signing up and looking forward to learning from you!!! 👏
I am new here, and I, too, was threatened by the doctor to be put on cholesterol medication, and I don't want it. I said to myself if I could turn this around with food instead of meds. I can do this❤
Absolutely loved this! Great info! And those numbers in 3 months that is very impressive!! Going to do the same for 3 months and would love to share my info with you!! Thanks❤❤
I dropped my cholesterol LDL from 104 to 65 in 6 weeks taking 10 mg statin I followed your diet apples everyday your delicious bean salad salmon twice a week and stopped cheese and cut fats .
@Zonyafoco how do i get your cookbook? Or info on what you do. My cholesterol & triglycerides are throw the roof. I just started last night on Statins and already in pain.😊
Statin not safe to take. Will cause loss memory and join pain when getting older. My lipid profile so good after only 4 weeks walkout 2.5 miles/day, everyday except Sunday. Intermittent fasting 16 hours no food only water and black coffee in the morning. Ate 2 meals noon and 7pm dinner. Lean foods only and healthy snacks. Cholesterol 221 to 161 Triglycerides 67 to 53 LDL 130 to 79
I give you so much credit for not going on it being a nurse. My dr tried so hard to convince me. I said nope nope and nope. So I have 6 months to prove to him that I can do it. A couple of years ago I went vegan with no cholesterol for 3 months. I gained weight and my cholesterol went up 5 points. You are right Zonya, there is more to it then just lowering how much cholesterol you eat.
Cholesterol intake has little effect on cholesterol in the blood. In fact 8 out of 10 cholesterol parts in your body are made from in your body and not from food.
🎉What a great testimony! I started eating Real Food several months ago in the hopes that at my May checkup I can get off the meds I’ve been told I “have to take for the rest of my life” 😡for my cholesterol - blood pressure - thyroid!✝️❣️
I was put on statins found out big no no all the crap u end up with more issues so I come off statins slowly went to kiwi fruit 4 a day plus celery, 8 oranges, Coq10 supplements, garlic, magnesium sulphate, potassium, turmeric, this I did for 6 months I fell no achy joints, no other issues and I went from 182 down to 132 and blood pressure from 187/110/80 to 132/80/70 docs were amazed
I just got my results for lab work and my cholesterol is VERY HIGH! This video is such an inspiration for me. I, too refused to take medication to lower my cholesterol. I searched on UA-cam for information and nutrition on lowering cholesterol and found Sonya. I have been following her recipes for three days now. I love how I feel and I look forward to seeing a drop in my cholesterol in a few months. Thank you.🥑
It costs me A LOT MORE than EVER to eat ORGANIC & healthy. But I have to. I am a cancer survivor and I had to make some changes. But it’s crazy how the healthier my diet got …. the higher my numbers went up. 🤷🏻♀️ I had an ultra low resection so I have to be VERY cautious of certain foods so I can avoid a bowel obstruction. Seeds & nuts & peels & beans are tricky for me. I deal with LARS (LOW ANTERIOR RESECTION SYNDROME.) So, while I WANT to eat to lower cholesterol (I have NOT EVER had high #’s till now) & I am a professional athlete & stunt woman so it makes NO sense to me that i now have high cholesterol 🤷🏻♀️ But I’d love to be able to eat these foods.
Amazing that this video came up when I am fighting the doc about statins. My legs cramp so bad that when it hits in the middle of the night I jump up crying. I've been binge watching you videos the last couple of days. Confession? I fear fruit... But the lady on different video who went to the gift shop and bought candy brought the reality home to me. I'm 66 and have so many medical issues my son says I'm a train wreck. I'd like to argue with him but you can't argue with the truth. I started eating with the info of your plan until I get the 28 day plan. I did get the one week plan through your website though. My granddaughter loves the Chocolate bliss she is a gymnast and is 2nd in the State. I need to be well enough to go to state and watch her compete. Right now I'm looking at a triple blockage, left side return whatever that means. I have to have an angiogram and whatever comes after that. Tired of the diets I have tried over the last 50 yrs. Even having a RNY gastric bypass. I did take a picture of me for a before reference. Wish me luck ...
@@Zonyafoco well I have oven baked veggies done, Easy Salad goodies all chopped up, and made the Salmon Burgers. I was out of Almond flour so I used combination of Hazelnut Flour and flaxseed meal. Let the Journey Begin... Thank you for your support.
Hi Zonya I am from United Arab Emirates and I want to order your cook book , however at your website only few countries can order . Do u have a distributor nearby Middle East ? From AMAZON it’s a different book ,can you pls help me how to avail the Eat Real cook book for 28 days pls . Thank you
I have watched you for years when you was on tv I believe you came on every sat, I first seen you on the PBS channel How many cookbooks do you have? Where do you get your cookbooks?
Hi Arleen, Thanks for tuning in... again. I have 2 cookbooks, both located at my website Zonya.com. If you order them from my site I'll sign them. During checkout, just add a note that you would like them signed. Thanks a Broccoli Bunch. Z
Hi Shawn, Absolutely! Also, starting in June I'll be starting my flagship 4-month DIET FREE Deep Dive livestreams. I don't have it posted on my website yet, but soon.
Thank you, I’m losing with ww lifetime member but not at goal. We’re eating cleaner, less meats and more legumes. So I’ll be checking in with you soon.
I am still not able to lower my cholesterol i got another blood test and it now 308 total cholesterol abd triglycerides are 177 i really need to change drinking more water and cut out bread abd eat more vegetables and fruits
When my doctor contacted me to say my cholesterol was 6.9 and far too high I couldn't believe it. I told her that I don't eat meat, and rarely eat processed food, other than tinned Tuna and Tomotos. never eat fried food and rarely eat chips. The doctor said what about sugar? I replied, what has that got to do with it. LOL, I drink around 10-12 cups of tea a day and I add one and a half sugars in a cuppa. She said, so how much sugar do you think that is over a month? DOH! How long did it take this lady to lower her cholesterol?
My ldl was 241 August 3 2023 i am not happy with this so i have started to eat black beans and having a apple smoothie in the blender with garlic and spices cayenne pepper , turmeric virgin olive oil with water to mix with lemon well see how my numbers change in a month or 2 😅
But NUTS like WALNUTS actually LOWER cholesterol. I have been watching various holistic doctors speak about that. There are GOOD fats 👍 that are good for us.
I’m in the UK. My low cholesterol in March was 6.5. Then 3 months later a second blood test my LDL was 6.6. How do these numbers compute with the 3 figure numbers I have seen on screen. Can anyone help please?
Same here in Canada. Cholesterol is measured in mmol/L and they are measured is mm/dL. You can search for Univ of Sydney conversion unit and you can get your results in 3 digits.
It’s been a while now, but I asked my doctor to check to see if there were any meds that I could come off of because I was taking 23 prescriptions. Sweet doctor went through all of my meds and he told me, “uh, no! You’ll probably have to take these for the rest of your life.” I said okay. I decided to see my PA to see if she thought it could get off of any of my meds. She’s like, well you can try, but you must be really careful. Long story Short, in just a few months, the insurance guy said he’d never seen a person who got “weller” during the year. How ya mean? I said. Well, you are taking 16 less medications! 😮😂 Wow! You mean 16!!! And I’m still taking some prescriptions? 🎊 🎉
Update: Well the doctor convinced me that it was “too dangerous” to try to get off of any more medications. So I found out I had cancer again and couldn’t have surgery because of “Covid” and I had to stop losing weight. I laughed at them and went for a yearly checkup the next year. When the doctor came in to tell me he couldn’t find any cancer. So, then I got stage 2 CKD. I guess it took about 9 months to get an “all clear”. The PA said, HOW’D YOU DO THAT? Me: 😂😂😂 That’s not all: my doctor wanted my cholesterol down, I had insulin resistance, and I was concerned about my memory, etc. Result : 🙉🙈🙊🐒. After my bloodwork, my labs were all normal!!! What can I say except, Thank You, Jesus! 🙏🙏🙏💐💐🙏🙏🙏
Where can I get the cookbook. I came across you video right after my doctor put me on cholesterol meds. I don’t want to take meds. So I’m glad I saw your video
WAY TO GO Joanie!!! 🙌🏽 I'm going to be like this if not better. So proud of you! Keep up the great work and bettering your help. 🙏🏽🥰💃🏽
Thank you so much. I had a bad reaction to cholesterol meds with in a couple hours. Thank god I found you. I went from 248 to 163 in 1 month. My Dr was so shocked. I’m looking forward getting your cookbook.
YES!!!! Way to take this information and apply it! You rock!
Was that the ldl cholesterol?
@@1awesomeface
No, it was mostly HDL that when down
@videogazer801 hdl is the good, are you sure you don't mean ldl (bad)?
I'm dairy, soy and gluten free, do you give alternatives in your recipes?
I stumbled on your UA-cam channel today. I will be binge watching this afternoon! I believe it was not by chance I found your channel. ❤
Awesome! Thank you!

This is awesome. What can you do if you have IBS and beans and apples are a no on the LowFODMAP diet
I dropped my cholesterol LDL from 104 to 65 in 6 weeks taking 10 mg statin
I followed your diet apples everyday your delicious bean salad salmon twice a week and stopped cheese and cut fats .

Great testimony! I'm adamant about not taking statins too, I'm so relieved clinicians feel similarly. I'm getting on board with this program!
YAY!
You give such great information. Thank you. I love your book Water with Lemon, I have read it a bunch of times. Will you be writing anymore?
probably not :(
