Hi all

 

Been benefiting from this diet from more than 2 years now. Did the medical check up recently and had the usual High Cholesterol, HDL, LDL, low trig. Not very different from 2 years ago. Which is good. (Thanks again CBS!)

 

Now I have a different problem. I need lowered Cholesterol and LDL levels for a 'good' medical report. It's important to me. Can anyone advice the best and fastest way?

 

TIA!

Fastest way is Crestor, the strongest statin drug. But please take CoQ10 with it to avoid losing your memory.

 

Of course I presume it's temporary, just for your blood report, so that after that you can go back to normal?

[Piyopico]

Do not take CRESTOR if you

Can we test for the two different types of LDL: small, dense LDL, and large, buoyant LDL in Singapore?

5 reasons not to worry about your cholesterol numbers

That's why I didn't suggest eating low fat or low cholesterol. Dietary cholesterol only accounts for 15-20% of serum cholesterol.

 

Serum cholesterol is there for many reasons. For eg. LDL carries fat soluble vitamins around the body. No wonder there are numerous studies that find low LDL levels correlate to high mortality (cancer).

 

Anyway, Carpediem obviously knows about all this and is living the lifestyle, he just wants to get his LDL down for a medical report. There's nothing more effective than Crestor for the specific purposes of lowering LDL (HDL will of course come down too as statins are sledgehammers that don't differentiate between the types of cholesterol).

Not that I know of. I even asked my doc friend, and he said "what's that?", referring to the sub categories of LDL.

 

So much for docs being authorities on lipidology.

Hi CBS Piyopico

 

Thanks for the fast replies. Yeah, its for temporary measure but will it show up in the blood report? I will be subjected to full body check up and don't want to take something too synthetic. Will have about 2 months to 'correct'. If only there's somewhere to test out the LDL in Singapore...

[Chickenbackside]

Just a calculated guess:

 

For 2 months, take Crestor, eat less cholesterol (to maximize the reduction), exercise with higher intensity, minimize O6 intake and get enough vitamin D, you should see the LDL number go down.

Doc put my mum once on Crestor but she complain of dizzness and constant runny nose, told here to cut out carb (rice, noodles, bread and other simple carb) but its not easy, old folks really cant survive on carbs. But the worst part is that the doc that prescribe Crestor told her to get off butter and take those "olive oil" margarine.

 

Been back to Paleo after a couple of years off it (traveling, aircraft food sucks!), now on the 4th week, felt lighter and more energetic, somehow felt stronger in all my lifts, all poundage improve, perhaps due to the higher protein and fats consumption.

I know quite a few parents of friends who have been taking statins for many years, and they display all the classic symptoms, failing memory, muscular weakness (hands shaking, unstable when walking...etc)...

 

Sad thing is, they simply attribute it to "old age". 60+ ain't old!

 

Living the last few decades of life in a state of physical impairment and confusion is simply not acceptable in my books.

Bro. we got to face it, not many people will subscribe to this sort of lifestyle nor many will believe in such either.

You can only help people who are willing to help themselves.

Thru this few years of this life style and showing the results, I am learning to let the issue of the cw eating style of my significant other and family go and get the support else where (like the paleo community here ). It may not be religion but it feels like it.

[Chickenbackside]

It's so surreal isn't it?

 

It's like everyone around you has a veil in front of their eyes, or rather, in their brains.

Yep. It's like a gift given yet unopened. This could be our original design. Waiting for the day for the gift to be opened one day.
