Default I have had two checks for cholesterol? - 03-13-2009, 03:13 AM

Each time it was high, after seeing two different doctors, opinions were different.
One said I've seen worse you are not overweight, you don't smoke or drink here's diet sheet
follow it and exercise more. Other doctor was shocked and gave me a prescription for a very
strong lowering cholesterol pill and said take it for life! What do I do now??
Thanks to everyone who gave me excellent advice. It really helped me.Happy Xmas

Go by the diet sheet the doctor gave you, get plenty of exercise, and also take the medicine in order to get your cholesterol down to a desired level. Once you get it down, you can then stop taking the med and hopefully control it with just the diet and exercise.
People don't always have to take it for life if they change their habits a bit.

I also had a borderline high LDL reading. That was a year ago. I do not like any medications, because I hate the side effects and just the fact, that I am putting chemicals into my body. That is when I came across vitamins recommended by my chiropractor. Since then my cholesterol is in the green. You should try. Here is a link to the research site.

I would need to know the numbers from the actual lipid profile to offer an opinion. JR

The first doctor is a quack. The second one is too panicky - although without seeing the numbers, just how panicky remains questionable.

I almost believe that there is a course in medical school called "Distraction 101". It seems that doctors will tell you anything to keep from having you learn the truth - because the truth involves things found around the house that are virtually free. Prescribing these things does not earn him a profit.

It is surprising that none of the frequently quoted and media-popularized doctors have reflected on the fact that cholesterol levels are measured from blood taken from the veins, yet nowhere in medical literature is there a single case of cholesterol having caused obstruction of the veins.

Venous blood moves far slower than arterial blood and thus would be more inclined to have cholesterol deposits if the assumption of "bad cholesterol" were accurate. This mistake, capitalized by the pharmaceutical industry, has caused an ongoing fraud against society.

In truth, the so-called "bad" cholesterol is actually far more beneficial than is appreciated. The reason for its rise in the body is because of complications caused by chronic unintentional dehydration and insufficient urine production. Dehydration produces concentrated, acidic blood that becomes even more dehydrated during its passage through the lungs before reaching the heart - because of evaporation of water in the lungs during breathing.

The membranes of the blood vessels of the heart and main arteries going up to the brain become vulnerable to the shearing pressure produced by the thicker, acidic blood. This shearing force of toxic blood causes abrasions and minute tears in the lining of the arteries that can peel off and cause embolisms of the brain, kidneys and other organs. To prevent the damaged blood vessel walls from peeling, low-density (so-called "bad") cholesterol coats and covers up the abrasions and protects the underlying tissue like a waterproof bandage until the tissue heals.

You can start correcting your problem by following the protocol found through the link below.

Hope they did the tests after you'd fasted otherwise they are not accurate.
