Alpha gal, Urso, and high cholesterol and blood sugar.
I recently had labs done and have very high
LDL
cholesterol and very high blood sugar. I am reading about how much the liver is involved in both these functions and wonder if the PBC is more advanced than I want to think.

High Amount of Good Cholesterol is Not good.. Reasearch..
Medical experts realize there is a relationship between cholesterol levels and heart disease, but a new study finds that HDL cholesterol — the "good" cholesterol — can have negative effects on our health. Researchers from Copenhagen University Hospital and the University of Copenhagen discovered

B VITAMINS ARE VITAL. I did not recover from Hashi's til I took individual B vitamins
DO YOU REALLY NEED ALL 8 B VITAMINS? Most medical students are taught that people do not need vitamins and supplements. If you eat a balanced diet, they are told, you get all of the nutrients needed. I was told this in medical school and it is still the mantra being disseminated decades later. The

Still ticking after stopping treatment
It has been five days since I stopped all treatment. The results have been nothing short of amazing. I have my old energy back, went for a walk today for the first time in many months. Worked around the house and my head feels like it used to...bright. This is so nice after months of fatigue, low

Cholesterol conundrum...
So in 4 months with no real change in diet, it's dropped substantially and mainly the
LDL
. I have been exercising a fair bit over the last 5 months though. I know that result should be considered good but with no rationale for it is it really or is it down to a deterioration in my liver??

When you have elevated inflammation levels, what do doctors usually do from there to determine what exactly is causing inflammation? are their tests that show WHERE the inflammation is coming from?
