cholesterol
, which was at that time: - TC: 209
HDL
: 54 TG: 71 LDL: 138 Last week, after four months on PF diet, I was expecting TC to drop to about 180, and here's what I got-- LDL went up 20 pts!

Natural Ways to Lower Cholesterol
It seems that time and time again we get repeated concerned posters asking about Cholesterol levels. Maybe we should have one thread ie this one where you can post natural methods that you found promoted healthy cholesterol levels (whatever they may be). I will start the ball rolling, please add with

Cholesterol (natural help?)
Hello everyone, I'm a newbie to this site, but keen to ask a very old question, and I don't want to frighten my GP; Does ACV (apple cider vinegar) really help reduce cholesterol, and if so, would it clash regrettably with omeprazole as a daily intake? I have spent much time on the 'net and not managed

The relationships between sugar, insulin and
cholesterol
(ldl/
hdl
) are identified, explored and clarified, with lots of recent fascinating research findings clearly identifying the destructive chain of events that absorbing hidden sugar sets off. Is anyone else reading/has read this book?

Statins
I would appreciate any comments from you all on the pros and cons of statins. I am 5 years post op, 67 years old and have made a reasonable recovery. I recently had a blood test which showed my healthy cholesterol at 2.51 and my ‘bad’ cholesterol at 4.3. My Q risk is 13.5%. These numbers mean nothing

My Introduction - elevated psa, unconfirmed prostate cancer
My total

is low but my
HDL
is very high, around 60. My non-HDL cholesterols are very low. A recent study is saying elevated HDL is now a risk for advance prostate cancer. Can't win! HA. Prostate cancer runs in my family.

Post AVR and blood pressure.
Hi, I'm five months post AVR and mostly doing well. When I was discharged I wasn't taking any of my previous medication for high blood pressure. Great, I thought, it must have been the stenosed bicuspid old valve that was making my blood pressure rise. My blood pressure has gradually risen again to higher

High pressure
My potassium is a tad above the upper limit (I was eating bananas while ill so no surprise there), my total
cholesterol
is fine but my
HDL
was low – probably accounted for by following a no-dairy, no processed food, vegan diet.
