High cholesterol (8.2) What's the best action and how quickly can I expect to reduce it?
I'm male 52, living in France. Just been diagnosed with a cholesterol count of 8.18 ( trig 2.26, HDL 1.60, LDL 5.56).... Hardly surprising, I live in the mountains famed for their cheese and wine production..... Whilst I speak reasonable day to day French I find it difficult to really understand and

Hypothyroidism and high cholesterol
Hello everyone. I am after a bit of advice. I have just had my sons (13) full lipid results back and have been told his thyroid is raised. 5.64 (should be 1-5). Has anyone else been in this situation? After doing some quick research It seems an over active thyroid can increase LDL (his is 5.94, total

COCONUT OIL DOES INCREASE HDL
On advice of medfree, I started taking two teaspoon of Coconut Oil (Virgin Cold milled) morning evening, after lunch and dinner. My HDL at the start of taking oil was 31 (reduced from 32 about a month ago). After over a month, today my my report has shown 36. This has also improved LDL/HDL ratio. So

Statins
My hypothesis on the merits of statin therapy is as follows:- Do statins reduce serum cholesterol? Is cholesterol instrumental in the clogging up of arteries? Do blocked arteries (atherosclerosis) lead to heart attacks/strokes? Having answered in the affirmative to all 3 questions, which people benefit

I'm very satisfied with the Giloy/Tinosphora pills that's the only form available in Canada. My sinus gone&fasting sugar 90mg/dl ,5 mmol/l
Does anyone know about any plant or herbal medicine for high blood pressure and cholestral. I know artichoke and flex seeds are good but didn't help much. Flex seed is good to raise HDL which is good but I'm looking for something which works to reduce LDL. Please help.

Totally in the dark with these readings :-(
I was recently admitted to A + E in the early hours with faintness and palpitations. My pulse on waking up at 3am was 140. In hospital they took blood tests and my cholesterol wasn't given on the form for my GP but the following figures were. Can anyone translate them? Are they bad readings? I'm 71 years

Hi everyone need a little help as going to the doctors on Monday to talk over my new blood test which I had to wait for 3 months before they took them. They put me on a trail of 25mg Levo for 3 months and yes in that time I did have about 6 weeks of feeling quiet well. Even the swelling went down in

Triglycerides: I'm puzzled. When I had the health check I was given a breakdown of the cholesterol test,
triglycerides being listed along with HDL, LDL, total and ratio. They seem to be the 'bad guys'.Then I was given a patronising lecture on healthy eating and various other issues, including not eating saturated fats but rather using polyunsaturated margarine instead. Then I see that actually margarine

Lowering Cholesterol
Just thought I'd share an interesting point about lowering cholesterol without the use of drugs. I have familial hyperlipoproteinaemia & have taken therapy for 40 yrs. My latest regime (for quite some years now) is Ezetrol 10mg. + Crestor 40mg daily & my cholesterol has never been less than 4.3 mmol

C25k lowered my cholesterol!!!!!!
My cholesterol level was over 7 this time last year so I joined Weight Watchers and lost 2 1/2 stone. I had it checked again this summer and it was 5.3 (safe level is 5 or just below). As it happens the doctor was questioning one of the other results so sent me for a repeat blood test and repeated the
