Any diet, even doctor prescribed, should be followed up with blood work and general fitness evaluations. My cholesterol is high, genetically, but I have never had any health issues related to it. Blood pressure is fine when I'm not fat, and triglycerides are lower, when I am low carb. Those required amounts of veggies are there for good reason and using fresh is much better than canned.
The problem with all the differing opinions on sugar, fat, vegan, etc... The players of the medical/pharma game can be just as political as government politicians, and just as greedy. I have always been of a 'scientific' mindset, but science is only another tool that should assist in making good decisions. Science is not infallible.
Hang in there JCBBQ you will be in the zone to eat berries/nuts soon and that opens up a whole new world. As Spinaker mentions, exercise is so important, even if it is only a slow walk early on.
