High cholesterol question?!
Question: High cholesterol question?
Well, the hubby's blood work just came in and his LDL is too high. He is slightly overweight. The doc recommended a low fat diet and come back in three months. I'm assuming that he'll check his cholesterol again and if diet alone isn't working, he'll put him on a statin which neither of us want. My question is for anyone who has high cholesterol...what did you do naturally to get it under control? Besides diet, any supplements like lecithin or what?
Thanks. :)
Thanks. :)
Answers:
Left alone trying to keep it low leaves me no where. It was always high and I do have heart disease. I am on two meds and it keeps both the good and bad cholesterol levels where they should be. I'm grateful for two reasons. One, it does the job. Two, I don't get discouraged with trying myself and losing so if I eat what I want on occasion I'm still ok. Much less effort. Health wise you just can't do everything yourself. Modern meds are a God send.
