I use Iceberg lettuce leaves instead of bread.

I did just that when I did the worthless course. Plain simple language that what they were saying was outright dangerous! Then I walked out.

Yes i remember DESMOND I listened mouth agog and about half way through I walked out after telling the nurses giving the lecture it was down right dangerous!

Really I'm okay overall except this LDL-thing. Also I read about the "remnant" LDL which kinda corresponds to the really bad small-dense LDL. Well if it is so, then my "remnant" has now improved to Optimal. But not being in medical I don't know what to make of it. Many Thanks. Congrats on the...

Unfortunately the majority believe most poppycock but in life it only really matters what we believe and live our lives by. The rest will perish in due course like every other civilisation has when corrupted by vested interests.

Well it keeps researchers in beer money I guess! Can't think of any other reason to check if a worthless treatment is "effective"

Don't bother it's not important anyway. Well it is I guess if you buy into the "Be Afraid, be very Afraid" syndrome.

Who says? Do not believe the Big Pharma hype. Headlines in news is that 50% of people who get duped into taking this rubbish see no effects on Cholesterol levels just have the chance of the side effects. The other 50% still get the chance of side effects for no good reason. Cholesterol...

I concur about not monitoring cholesterol but make that all your life not just a year. It is a useless test that is only designed to persuade us to make Big Pharma richer!

That's an interesting point. I did not have any symptoms before or even since that I can recognise as significant to T2. I 'discovered' that I was diabetic by accident and asked my GP to confirm.

Could not say it better. Cut the carbs right down and give it time. Just lowered my Hb1 to 39 from 78 in 6 months of low carb and 20 kg weight loss from low cal as well

I must be the lucky one as the food at two of my local hospitals was amazing. I spent a week in each and ate 3 meals a day with lowest BS reading I have had for years.

It's a war out there. I mean come on now they want ALL over 75's to take statins to improve their health!!!! So if your loosing the battle for hearts and minds over cholesterol change your tactics and promote it with other, possibly, made up results.

and I hate the Ramipril nasal drip as well!

The answer is none of the above. To paraphrase Trump 'It's Fake News' Unless you have Familial hypercholesterolemia and I recon you would know by now, do not buy into this pseudo science designed to make Big Pharma rich.

Congrats on this informative work. Now perhaps people can get rid of the concept that cholesterol in any size or density is bad!

What I am getting at is that it matters not an iota what level your HDL, LDL or any of the other variants test to unless you suffer from familial hypercholesterolemia an inherited problem which makes your cholesterol abnormally high. The other tests for Liver and Kidney function and full...

Cholesterol levels are about as useful as your inside leg measurement. Don't even bother to have it tested. The only benefit is to the shareholders of the Pharma Co's who sell this junk. If your concerned with possible indicators for CHD get your Homocysteine level checked.
