bad cholesterol result

Hi Shews ,don't panic!!
Apparently this happens at the beginning of low carbing.I'm sure one of our more clued up members will tell you the scientific reason for this.It does go down.
It happened to me when i first started but now my cholesterol ,trigs etc are all down ,well within normal limits.

Those numbers don't add up, they give you zero triglycerides!

Your HDL is astonishingly good. LDL is a bit high but with that HDL this may not be a problem

The problem is that Tchol - HDL - LDL *2.2 should give your your trigs and it doesn't!

That makes more sense, trigs are now 0.66 which is pretty excellent, which gives trigs/HDL of 0.6 which is better than mine. GO AWAY!!! <G>

That number is indicative of insulin resistance, and also cardiovascular risk, and needs to be below about 1.3, which you have very confortably exceeded.

It also suggests that your LDL will be predominantly large nondestructive molecules even though your number is a bit high.

It's plausible you may actually benefit from a statin in getting that LDL down. It's equally plausible that you may not in view of the other numbers.

You could try tweaking the fats in your diet, make sure you have a good balance between Omega 3s (high) and Omega 6s (low), if you were to add more sat fats they might go to HDL which is already impressively high, or you might try reducing them in favour of monounsaturates.

Really needs an expert opinion IMO, and more tests to see what the outcome is.
