Funny I was having my physical yesterday and my ldl is borderline high at 115 and he was telling me about these. Said it won’t be available for 5 more years or so

I’m fascinated with cholesterol after reading Peter Attias new book.

Also Rogan had a guy on Monday that is against statins and looks more at HDL and Triglycerides more than LDL.

My triglycerides are 56 so that’s what’s stopping me from going on a statin.

Yes. Solely looking at LDL is erroneous and the war on cholesterol and fat standing alone has also been wrong. The govt push for hi carbs and low fat has lead to more heart disease. Sugar is the killer here. Not the fat

My cholesterol levels went down when I gave up eating chicken wings. I used to easily eat 12-15 wings. Way too much food for me nowadays.

A place like Hooters and Buffalo Wild Wings has too many calories.

What

115 isn't borderline high or even remotely high.

Anything below I believe 129 is considered within optimal range for LDL

all my levels were high last year, mixed in more chicken and fish, cut out baked snacks, less red meats and everything went down. Just a better "diet".

Im due for blood work so curious to see where i stand now. I wont do statin.

A tablespoon of high quality cod liver oil every day, cutting seed oils, cutting sugar will fix you up in a month.

For heterozygous familial hypercholesteria . A lot of people have this. Diet or whatever doesn’t help. Repatha is current drug I take which is a miracle worker

NIH now considers below 100 optimal and from 101 to 129 high normal or borderline.
