[QUOTE="CathyN, post: 341122, member: 45197"] Hi I was told that I might need statins. My cholesterol was fine for someone without diabetes, but thought too high for someone WITH diabetes. I am resisting statins and have lowered my LDL (lousy cholesterol) - and upped my HDL (happy cholesterol) by having a Benecol drink every morning, using de-caff coffee, eating cholesterol busting foods like almonds, avocados etc. It worked for me and I'd say it's definitely worth a try. If eventually you do need statins then you won't have failed but the less drugs the better, I suppose! Cathy N [/QUOTE]
