[QUOTE="Salvia, post: 1886922, member: 278312"] I've found this discussion to be really helpful, because I've had some worrying results this year. Short version: Total cholesterol has risen, up to 10.4, HDL fallen a bit from 2.18 to 2.15, but LDL is very high at 7.83. Total Chol/HDL is good, and Trigs/HDL is ideal, but HDL/LDL is much too low. Dave Feldman's site gives a lot of info, and his section on hyper-responders is useful - but he doesn't say what to do about it (or at least, I can't find anything). Ken Sikaris doesn't say either, though he does say that statins can be helpful. It appears to be a case of "we don't know". Anybody have any ideas about how long it takes for LDL to fall again after the initial rise? The increase for me seems to have happened since about Nov 2016 (no tests since then till March, then Sept this year) and it's still rising. Or should I just be happy that ratios are ok and forget about LDL? [/QUOTE]
