Selvascura

Thanks Geezy. My HDL was 81 mg/dL (2.1 UK). I'm only two months in and my doc is happy to leave me and retest my fasting cholesterol in a while. I'm guessing my numbers might balance out given a little more time. I feel better. The inflammation is reduced, my gut issues are resolving, my joints feel better. I'll take that. I totally agree with Fung. I think the statin push is Big Pharma making money. Statins only make a 1% difference in real terms. They also increase risk of diabetes and certain cancers. The Fung is more up-to-date but I also watched this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SYlhG8_nZe0

I have done keto/ carnovire before and it heals my gut issues. I am doing keto to feel better rather than lose weight. I have been on it this time round for two months. I have been eating eggs, beef, lamb, pork and a little cheese. I have however, also been eating a fair bit of heavy (extra thick double) cream. My recent blood work showed: (Non-fasting) cholesterol: 8.4 nmol/L; triglycerides 2.7 nmol/L; LDL 5.1 mmol/L;cholesterol/HDL ratio 4.0; Se non HDL cholesterol 6.3mmol/L. I am a female, 60 years old and I am 5’ 2" and weigh about 123 lbs. Should I be worried? I know I need to probably stop the cream. Advice and ways forward please.
