Are You or Your Family Having High Cholesterol?

[Guest guest]

Treating cholesterol is nonsense and a way to make money for a lot of people. It is like chasing a shadow. If just as many people die with cholesterol under 200 as over 200 then optimal cholesterol leve MUST be 200 for most people. 160 to 240 is okay. Above 240 there is more heart disease and below 160 there is more hormonal problems and cancer.

 

However, as people age their cholesterol naturally increases by one point each year. So for those over 40, most likely acceptable levels are 200 plus your age. This is just generalized ststistical info but a WHO study of women over 65 shows this to be accurate unless the person has a heart defect, injury, or vascular surgery.--- On Fri, 9/19/08, josi_wibowo <josi_wibowo wrote:

I've been struggling with this one. I agree with the articles that

have been posted about how cholesterol is needed by the body, and

heard alot about the so-called cholesterol hoax. But mine is over 300

total. And I pay alot of attention to my diet,consume very low levels

of cholesterol, have been mostly vegetarian most of my life, so it has

to be something my liver is doing, possibly genetic, although I have

no knowledge of what my now deceased parents cholesterol levels were,

and they lived to a ripe old age, did not have heart disease that i

knew of. I'm definately not willing to take statins.

I'd be curious who these people are, Hugh. Where do they live and what

is their lifestyle, diet, etc.

Dear Sunny,

 

One of the healthiest women I have ever met was my last mother-in-

law. Her cholesterol was 413. When she had blood work done, whatever

Dr. was seeing her freaked out. Her son, my Ex, who was also a Dr.

and a health nut, just ignored it. We all ate an organic vegetarian

diet. My mother-in-law and I ran an Organic Bakery. She was in her

late 70's and ran circles around me. I kept contact with her and she

died at age 92 after a brief illness. My Ex, the Doc, said some

people just have a higher cholesterol level. He thought it was

probably an inherited trait.

I

am inclined to think high cholesterol isn’t so much the ‘what

you eat’ but ‘what you drink’.

Cholesterol is a fat that helps keep our cells from dehydrating by sealing in

what water is there. The more dehydrated the body’s

cells are the more cholesterol is made to hopefully seal in more moisture and

water. So I am inclined to believe it is how much plain water a body gets and

how hydrated the body stays.

Just

my 2 cents.

Thank you very much for sharing that, Dak. It's 'heartening' to hear

stories like that. I've heard it said that eating fruits and veges

high in antioxidents keeps the cholesterol from oxidizing and creating

plaque in the arteries, if indeed it does contribute to that

significantly. My Dr. tried to get me to take statins once and I

stopped seeing him for a year after that. I really need to see a Dr

into alternative medicine but the ones around here I can't afford. I

do struggle with CFS which I've had for 30 years. I'm 63. I was

raised vegetarian and eat the best most organic foods I can.
