Hi can I recommend you read 'let's eat right to keep fit' by Adele Davis? This book was written many years ago and in it she talks about magnesium and its effect on muscles and the heart. Her recommended source is Epsom salts
This is another comment from my GP. "With high cholesterol your heart is healthy from the specialist report" we have to keep an eye on cholesterol with regular testing. Will go for a blood test in February.
Big leg had said "that high cholesterol is not the demon our medical professionals and ourselves are led to believe it to be".... BUT in my case it was a major reason I had a heart attack that stopped my heart 5 times. So i don't believe what is being said. What is clear is that we all need to control our weight, eat a balanced diet, take care of any problems we may have like diabetes and exercise regularly. And if pills will help this then if you have to take them then take them, if you can do without them then do without them. We are all individuals and what is good for one is not necessarily good for another. So I do what i have to do to stay alive because if i dont control my cholesterol i WILL die again and that is not an option i want to consider.
There far too many who thrust unsubstantiated theories on this board and i have to say that high Cholesterol is a demon.
Thanks for your explanation. Yes we are all different in our medical condition and our body react differently and we all need the correct action at the end of the day, BP, cholesterol, type 2 and few other medical condition, even my religious belief is that. I am fortunate I managed to take a life style change to reduce some numbers. Only time will tell if my actions can give me better health to live without much medication.
