Thanks so much for this content! Question- I have high lipids currently treated with Crestor prescribed by family practice MD. Should I also be seeing a lipid specialist and/or cardiologist as well?

I just got mine checked but does smokeless tobacco increase your chances of heart disease?

I’m relieved and grateful my doctor loved my levels. Feels like I’m dodging a bullet. Gonna keep those numbers good.

I’m 54, lost 45 lbs in 2023. Cholesterol went from 243 to 228, ldl stayed at 155, HDL is normal. Should I consider taking something for it?

A very high HDL is not good and needs to be addressed. For years I was told it was great but turns out it’s not!

Love these tips. Just brought my cholesterol down to normal levels and cut triglycerides by 40% by stopping drinking - had no idea it stopped my liver doing its day job.

I'm NOT there yet (48)! But my LDL was high last year. I already eat well (Mediterranean) and am active. Statin has done the trick!
