Should DR put me on meds? Any help appreciated.If the HDL is under 40 mg/dL is considered too low. Try
incorporating exercise, a niacinamide supplement, as well as
increasing your omega -3 fatty acids. I highly recommend
this product call Pro EPA, by Nordic Naturals, truly a great
product. Check out this website to get info on this product:www.e-nutra.com

Cholesterol levels. Its called CAIGUA and be be

I am a bit out of touch here. When I had my cholesterol
tested, the readings were like e.g. 5.4 or 8.9 etc. At the
time it was considered high if you rated anything beyond 5.5
I was shocked to learn that my level was 9.8. Prior to this,
I thought that high cholesterol levels were associated with
being overweight and considering I was not overweight, I was
really surprised. However, when I had it explained to me I
realised that it can be high if we eat a lot of fatty foods.
I also learnt that it can be hereditary and that some people
have to be on medication to have it reduced.Anyway, I looked at my diet and at the time I ate a lot of
cheese and ice cream. I cut these down quite a bit and
within 6 weeks, my level was down to 5.9. This was quite
amazing and since then I have never returned to my old
eating habits.In your case It might be that you need medication and I
would seek professional advice from your general
practitioner and if you are not happy with that I would seek
a second opinion. You are better to be safe that sorry.I am glad I have read your story because it reminds me that
I need it checked again. I will let you know how I get on.

fatfreekitchen.comcholesterolOpen ↗It is my understanding that it is not the cholesterol that
is the problem your own body creates it, but the problem
seems to be a rouge amino acid that's in the cholestrol that
creates problems. Check out the book by dr.Kilmer Mccully (
hope the spelling is correct) "The Heart Revolution" -
Hi. I had the same prob and didn't feel like exercising
either. Got a book called Before the Heart Attacks. Great
book! Started eating: oatmeal with walnuts for breakfast, 2
apples a day, 2 cups salad a day (regular dressing), no soft
drinks, lentil soup (1-2 cups a day). Generally high fibre,
low fat diet. HDL went over 1.1 (Cdn system) in 3 months.
Highest it's ever been. Total cholesterol at 5.65 (another
record) and LDL was under 3. I weigh over 240 pounds. No
exercising. Oh yes also important--400 iu vitamin E, 500 C,
multivitamin daily. All of this advice came from that book.Best of luck, Ann

The link between diet and cholesterol has been highly
suspect lately, largely in part due to the Atkins craze
(and recent fall-out studies). For the most part though,
it doesn't look like diet plays as big a role as one
thought. Probably genetics and exercise are by far the
stronger factors.(amsc) said:
