We found organic grits at out local health food store. Ingredients are organic corn and water. Is that acceptable for LDL?
Thank you

Re: Grits
Winfield,
Go to the search button (in the blue toolbar towards the top of the page) and type in "grits". The problem with the cornmeal is not the corn, but the way that it seems to be processed. You will find numorous posts where people added these things to their program and either stopped losing weight or even gained.
Bottom line is - I wouldn't eat them. As soon as your cravings disappear (should be within just a few days), you'll find that you don't even want things like this anymore. Load up on corn, peas, and beans and your cravings for bread, grits, potatoes, etc. will go away.
