Hi Phill,

Welcome to the Healthy Eating forum. I thought you might find these link pages helpful for your query, as a starting point.

The first is from NHS Choices and is about how to lower cholesterol:

nhs.uk/Livewell/Healthyhear...

healthunlocked.com/choleste...

The second is a community in Healthunlocked specifically called 'Cholesterol support' - which you might consider visiting to see if they can offer you some additional support:

healthunlocked.com/choleste...

Hope these sources of information are both helpful to you.

Lowcal :-)

Hi , thank you for that it was very interesting I am going to see my doctor and come off the statins as I have only been on them for 4 months,I'm sure I can correct this with my diet and I'm sure my doctor will not agree but as she said it's my life.
