Total Cholesterol went up from 133 to 212...That's a huge jump in in 5 months, need to start eating better. been eating to much crap.
Also it shows this
LIPOPROTEIN (A) 118 nmol/L <75 nmol/L H
Not sure if that's the same as Lipoprotein little a that Dr. Rath talks about.
When I had a more comprehensive test done last August it showed my LP (a) as 59 I can't believe thats the same protein, if it is why would it go up so much, thought Vitamin C and Niacin helps bring it down.
ugh
Seeing Cardiologist Tomorrow , see what he says when I tell him I don't believe that high cholesterol cause heart disease anymore :0
Ken
Let me share some news in my recent results, Ken to encourage you. I am a male, 60 this year.
I have not posted in a while. I had a MI in mid '14 with 2 plain stents. I went until Nov '16 doing what I thought was healthy living. I could go on with that later. Then I had a mild attack, with markers in my blood. They sent me to the cath lab only to declare I was no candidate and I needed CABG.
So I went along, with the county medical advice, mediCal.
I went bananas on diet reform (I am an O blood types): no hexane refined oils, no grains, paleo basically. Fish oil, borage oil, d'ribose, niacin, moringa, Hawthorn berry & more, Mark Houston protocols. This I have continued to present time. Also, vitamin k, selenium, cod livers, EVOO, CoQ10, fermented garlic, fresh turmeric...
My EF was 30. Lpa was 29 Recovery was hard. About Jan I started PT.
My PT regiment is (now)
3-4g of Target VC + 1 g of IR niacin 6 to 7 times a day
A sippy cup of lysine, proline, elderberry powder to wash each dose down.
A Jan EF was still 30. Mid Jan Lpa 13. All this time I was plagued with leg edema.
Then In Apr a VC test showed 8 mg/dl(.2-1.5 is normal, what is our normal?). EF went 55! My KP cardiologist is astounded. I still am on a very low dose of the Lovostatin, BTW, I understand it is red yeast rice, basically.
About this time I would have spells, crying and leaping for joy! Really many occasions. My mind was sharp now! What is going on?
Edema is gone. I can eat sea salt again. My mind is keen, I believe I have had slow thinking and foggyness for 17 years.
Was I denial in 2007 when aspirin got me through a day.
I run a mile now faster than I have in 25 years.
