Lancet study on carbs: a critique
This is quite long, so rather than clutter up Zest's thread (or the other one discussing the newspaper editorial) I thought I'd better create a separate one, simply because lot of people might find my comments too boring to respond to :) First off (and I'm not pretending this is an academic observation

Treatment update
I’ve been posting here for about six months, but I am always uncomfortable about posting personal updates. I wonder whether I am bragging, whining, boring people or some combination of the above. Regardless, I enjoy reading the experiences of others, both positive and negative. I personally think

Why beta-blockers for portal hypertension, rather than blood pressure reducing drugs?
Hi My Mum has recently been diagnosed with NAFLD and stage 1 cirrhosis and she has been prescribed beta-blockers. We were just wondering why beta blockers have been prescribed rather than the usual blood pressure reducing drugs? Does anybody know why this is? Not saying it's wrong, just wondering

My HDL level was 5.8 (<5.0) I have also been getting white plaques of skin around my eyes, the nurse said that is indicative of high cholesterol and I have had those since

Do these cholesterol levels need further treatment or are they okay? Aged 21
Hi, I recently had a blood test at work and haven't had chance to take the results to my GP yet. I should start by saying I have a family history of heart disease/problems. My maternal grandmother had a stroke in her late 40s and died of a heart attack aged 54. My mother is displaying signs of what could

High Cholesterol diagnosis
Had diagnosis of high cholesterol early 2017 and got referred to the Lipid Clinic at hospital. I have been told my LDL Cholesterol is at present 2 times what it should be. The doctor advised taking 10 mg Simvastin or Ezetimibe. I am currently refusing this, as I have heard so much bad stuff about statins
