Do this type of Cholesterol need to take med?

[rogze79]

I take 4 pills daily. 1 for high blood pressure, 2 for uric acid, 1 for hair.

Maybe it can be as simple as keeping.your insulin low by removing carbs and fruits.

You can find out more about hyperinsulinemia, aldosterone and hypertension.

Fructose in many fruits, processed products and sugar laden beverages is key contributor to uric acid.

I don't really eat fruits or take soft drinks per se..

Only my blue red bull!

Actually any lower of dosage should be at the advise of the doctor. Instead of not eating the medication. You can upfront asked the doctor on your situation and concern see if they can lower your dosage for the medication base on the past result but 6 days never eat medications before blood test to me don't make it much difference unless u telling me u have stop all medication. Most of the cholesterol is contribute by our liver and this production comprise 80% diet only contribute 20% only.

You have to be mindful of your carbs intake.

it is not ideal when you are ingesting the equivalent of 7 tsp of sugar (in red bull) regularly on top of your usual food intake.

Just tell him lor. Or you can bring your mother go and tell her to tell him.

bring mother to tell doctor is power play, may cause doctor to suffer heart attack

 

[helloicanseeu]

No, because i'm perfect BMI, except that i eat mcd/kfc 5/7 times a week.

The doctor asked me to try adjusting my diet. I reduce to 2-3 times and changed one of it to LJS see how it goes.

perfect BMI but fastfood addict ... oso sad

pls makan fruit vegetable meals daily

cucumber costs 40c, one packet tomato cost $1 in angmo, u can literally eat them raw

 

[helloicanseeu]

dun understand what u talking about.....

i said this again.
-Yes.... if got illness... best to do checkup and get treated asap.
-However, the patient want to get treated anot, it is up to themselves. Doctors don't have rights to override. We are not living in North korea.

-Yes... doctors are the professional.... we should listen.
-No, we can only listen partial.... they are just textbook doctors.... i googled or ask chatgpt can find out specify what wrong with my health, and do the remedy.

doctors are not just professionals, they are belong to the group of people in the world who will work hard to save a strangers' life simply because it is their job, no question of gratitude whatever.

it is understated how important these people are to society

I am practicing diligently in this life to attain no birth and no death.

Anyway, heard of people collapsed and passed on due to not taking cholesterol med though they have high cholesterol. It seems that high cholesterol is more fatal than hypertension. Better don't play play.

Ppl say go heaven is forever happy and no more fighting, no more problems.

According to Buddha's teaching, heavenly realms are impermanent and it's still within the 6 rebirth realms (heavens, asuras, humans, animals, ghosts & hells). These 6 realms are impermanent. Buddha discourage His followers to be reborn in heavens. Instead, He taught His followers how to liberate from rebirth in these 6 rebirth realms.

 

[AUTUMN&WINTER]

Please share what are the food that are high in cholesterol. I know butter, cakes etc. Some say egg is high in cholesterol, some say not true. Which is correct about egg?

Why you choose Buddhism and dun choose Hinduism? Both religion also come from India.

Both are originated in India but does not mean they are the same. Both teachings are totally different. I don't wish to turn this thread into a Buddhist thread. Welcome you to Buddhist thread at edmw if you are interested.

Your focus should be placed on the impact of omega‑6 fatty acids and metabolic health rather than on cholesterol alone.

Excessive omega 6 intake promotes oxidative modification of LDL cholesterol, a primary driver of atherogenesis, and most individuals exhibit an omega 6 to omega 3 ratio exceeding 20 to 1. But LDL is mainly produced by our liver and serves essential physiological roles such as hormone synthesis and cellular repair, its atherogenic potential depends on both oxidative state and particle phenotype. Oxidized, small dense LDL particles (pattern B) readily infiltrate the arterial intima and accelerate plaque formation. Therefore, clinical strategies should aim to minimize LDL oxidation and shift the lipoprotein profile toward larger, more buoyant LDL particles (pattern A), which are less likely to contribute to cardiovascular pathology.

Thanks for sharing. I googled and noticed that some healthy snacks like Almond and Cashew nuts which I am always taking are high in omega 6 ! I shall cut down on those.

U can search whether these are good for lowering LDL instead of whether they contain any omega 6.

The oxalates is pretty high in these nuts. Not cool.

These nuts and plant based food DO lower cholesterol due to the phytosterols content. Its similar in structure chemically.

it's not a good idea to artificially inhibit the production in our liver and absorption in the digestive tract.

The body is smart enough to make what it needs. Yet ppl are trying all means and ways to suppress and/or inhibit it's normal physiological state.

What a world we live in..

the problem is i stop taking my Cholesterol med somewhere in jan or feb of 2024. and for may 2024 test onward, i only take last 6 days before the Cholesterol test.

Am keeping your posts separated between 2rm and cholesterol.

Your triglycerides is lower than mine. I'm at 93mg/dl. Down from 103 a year ago.
My total cholesterol is 413mg/dl

The reason I asked if you have taken insulin test is to confirmed that your insulin is probably really high. AND you are still injecting insulin.

Where did you had your blood tests done?
