I asked Copilot.

There could be several reasons for a sudden drop in cholesterol levels. Here are some potential causes:

Diet: Eating a diet that is low in fruits and vegetables and high in trans fats, processed meats, and refined carbohydrates like sugar can negatively affect cholesterol levels.
Exercise: A sedentary lifestyle where you don’t get enough exercise can also have a negative effect.
Obesity: Having high body weight is another factor that seems to negatively affect cholesterol levels.
Smoking: Smoking has also been shown to decrease cholesterol levels.
High blood sugar and blood pressure: Poor management of both of these cardiovascular issues can also pose problems for your cholesterol levels.
Medications: Certain medications, such as those containing testosterone or anabolic steroids, can lower cholesterol levels.
Malnutrition: Not eating enough, or not eating enough healthy foods.
Malabsorption: Your body doesn’t absorb enough fat.
Anemia: Low red blood cell count.
Thyroid issues: Problems with your thyroid can affect cholesterol levels.
Liver disease: Certain liver diseases can cause low cholesterol
.
It’s important to note that these are just potential causes. If you’ve noticed a sudden drop in your cholesterol levels, it would be best to consult with a healthcare professional who can provide a more accurate diagnosis based on your medical history and current health status.

4. Chronic Infections or Inflammatory Conditions:

Lol I don't know why EDMW likes to demonize oats.

Oats are much more nutritious than foods that you commonly eat.

Don't just focus on the carb contents. Look at the other contents too.

 

[jkohlc2]

optimal is 2.6-3.0 leh

could be analysis error

 

[KPO_SAHM]

You did CTA or Calcium scan ?


I think Cholesterol not so much.

Can impact blood glucose more.

It's CT scan not CAT scan

It's CT scan not CAT scan

I asked if you did CT Angiogram or Calcium score.

Not asking CT scan or CAT scan. Actually both are the same leh.

CT scan vs. CAT scan: What’s the difference?​

A CT scan and a CAT scan are the same thing. CT stands for computerized tomography and CAT stands for computerized axial tomography.

I am unsure of but dye injected into my body when machine operates. Mainly the scan is to check blockage of my arteries
