Who has high cholesterol, how do you manage it?

I had high bad cholesterol. Proper water fasting helped.

Author, what is the ratio of good to bad?

I encountered an issue, got my tests done, and found that both cholesterol and iron levels are above normal. Now they've sent me to retake a more comprehensive test and have an ultrasound of my liver.

Melissa, my triglycerides are 6.26, HDL is 1.2, and LDL is 4.35. I can't fast because it will make me dizzy and cause extreme weakness.

Everyone, go for buckwheat!!! I stuck with it and went from 7.1 to 4.8. But I stuck with it for a long time, and now it's just a lifestyle.

Nata, could you elaborate more on how exactly you followed the buckwheat diet and for how long?

Nata, what was your diet? Your results are simply stunning. Some doctors believe that statins are unavoidable. But I really don't want to become dependent on pills.

Buy Elcar or L-carnitine, it's the same thing. There's no addiction to it; it's a trace element found in the body. Drink it for a month, it helped me.

What does this have to do with lowering cholesterol? The instructions don't list indications for treating this issue.

The results were good as long as I strictly stuck to buckwheat and greens, but I do love mayonnaise and sauces based on it. Now it's gone up to 5.8 again.

Also, girls, someone suggested a folk remedy to me—kefir with cinnamon. I tried it and really liked it, so now I drink it, though not always. Some professor spoke on the radio and said that even though the norms have been raised now, we should still strive to keep cholesterol below 5.0 at any age.

Nata, did you eat anything besides buckwheat with greens?

Actually, I'm a fan of delicious pastries, but at that time, I was really into buckwheat and cilantro with dill—I absolutely love that kind of greens. I couldn't believe it when I got the results. But they didn't stay that perfect for long. I also love eggs, but I had cut them out at that time. And I wanted to lose weight, even though my weight is normal.

Flaxseed oil is effective for lowering cholesterol.

You need to know the cause of high cholesterol.

Once, I was also found to have high cholesterol when I was hospitalized with a pancreatitis attack! They told me that the pancreatic flare-up was caused by cholesterol, and they said that if I left it as is, I would be at risk for gallstones, fatty liver disease, and atherosclerosis—I was in a panic. I searched for a long time for something that could help me, since I can’t stick to diets; I start getting depressed. Life is already too hard and joyless to deny myself everything, and you have to give up all the tasty things! They prescribed me a bunch of medications along with a diet and drinking oat broth! I couldn’t handle it! There was a separate medication for each organ! That could ruin your entire stomach. Then I came across the newspaper "Arguments of the Week," which advertised the drug Fishant specifically for high cholesterol! I rushed to my doctor, and she approved it. I started taking it. What’s most pleasant is that it’s not a medication; it’s something that simply prevents cholesterol from being absorbed and forces the body to use up stored cholesterol from organs where it’s excess! I eat whatever I want, take it in courses, and everything is fine! I hope the moderators forgive me. I just can’t help sharing my discovery; I really want to help those who suffer from high cholesterol!

To combat high cholesterol, it is essential to start with an appropriate diet. Here are a few tips: A diet to lower cholesterol is simple: avoid saturated fats and dietary cholesterol. It is recommended to reduce the amount of animal fats in your diet; ideally, a serving of meat should not exceed 100 grams. Opt for lean meat and remove the skin from chicken. Avoid excessive consumption of butter, fatty sour cream, and mayonnaise. Prefer stewed or boiled dishes over fried ones. Eggs—recent studies have shown that eating eggs does not affect blood cholesterol levels. The article mentions vegetable oil: if you have stomach issues, it’s better to avoid vegetable oil—it’s a double-edged sword, as it contains monounsaturated fats on one hand but is difficult to digest on the other. The cholesterol issue concerns me because of my mother. What is "fishant"? Could you explain in more detail? My mother was also recommended some kind of "polyphepan," but it didn’t seem to help much.

Anarchy! Fishant √ is that new generation of dietary supplements, which is not a medicine but simply a ballast product! You talk about diet, but do you know that by eliminating animal fats and reducing their amount, you also reduce the benefits they bring, such as fatty acids. So, with Fishant, I ate everything I wanted, and it prevented cholesterol from being absorbed in the body. That is, thanks to taking Fishant, during the course, you start extracting the cholesterol needed by the body from itself, thus cleansing it—that's the whole effect. And with this, excess weight is lost, well-being improves, and intestinal microflora is restored.

I found some good information about Fishant - ??In the small intestine, Fishant mixes with intestinal contents and coats the intestinal mucosa with a thin layer that does not hinder the absorption of food components, thereby increasing the intestinal absorption surface. Bile actively dissolves in medical vaseline oil, remains in a soluble state within the emulsion capsule, and moves into the large intestine. As a result, cholesterol contained in bile and cholesterol from food do not enter the bloodstream and are eliminated from the body along with feces. The resulting normal slight deficiency of bile (as in a healthy body) is compensated by the liver with a new portion of bile. For this purpose, excess cholesterol from its reserves in various tissues, including the liver, gallbladder, and vascular walls, enters the liver from the blood. Consequently, the liver gets rid of fatty deposits, the gallbladder restores its contractility, and arteries become smooth and elastic. Gradually, the natural mechanism for controlling blood cholesterol levels is restored. Simultaneously, digestive enzymes are activated, and digestion is fully normalized. But that's not all. As it moves through the intestine, pectin and agar suppress the growth of pathological microorganisms. In the large intestine, bile together with pectin prevent the proliferation of harmful bacteria and serve as a good nutrient medium for microorganisms beneficial to humans. The microflora of the large intestine normalizes. Additionally, the microemulsion actively absorbs toxins from pathogenic microbes, which significantly helps the liver restore normal metabolism and control the production of cholesterol and the removal of its most dangerous fractions.??

From my personal experience: it's essential to stick to a diet and eat less fatty and fried food. I also took dihydroquercetin plus, which lowered my cholesterol from 7.2 mmol to 4.0 mmol.

I've been taking Fishant-S for six months. I've managed to keep my levels at 4. I've even lost a little weight. The only inconvenience is that if I eat a whole can in the morning, I'm guaranteed to have mild diarrhea by the evening. Although, that's precisely the effect my mom uses it for in the first place))

And I am very cautious about dietary supplements, I trust certified medications more.

Our grandpa was diagnosed with atherosclerosis and high cholesterol. The doctor prescribed statins to choose from, depending on what our budget allows. As always, it's either the expensive original or the affordable generic, so we settled on Tevastor—a generic version of Rosuvastatin. It's three times cheaper than the original, and it handles cholesterol just as well.

The idea that cholesterol rises from high consumption of animal fats is utter nonsense, and this has long been known in medicine and dietetics. It is merely a consequence, and the cause lies in the deficiency of blood transport proteins that carry lipids (fats). This deficiency arises from the widespread chronic lack of protein in the modern human diet. As a result, the body is forced to switch to an economical method of transporting fats (this is what is called bad cholesterol), but this is simply a consequence of protein deficiency, not at all the result of increased cholesterol intake from food. You can eat protein and consume pure cholesterol, and you won’t develop atherosclerosis. Yet our doctors, the media, and other so-called experts, due to their foolishness and narrow-mindedness, continue to promote this nonsense about cholesterol and perpetuate this myth. Increase the amount of protein in your diet to the norm, and bad cholesterol will disappear on its own. This information is not some kind of secret, but it doesn’t reach people.

I drink Cholesterol Control super....

Sergey, well, I have to disagree with you. I had high cholesterol for a while, partly due to my diet (I really loved fried foods and butter). Then I replaced animal fats with plant-based ones: butter with spreads, started frying less, cut out mayonnaise, and there were improvements.

Is a spread not the same as margarine?

No, they are completely different things! Spread is much healthier and contains many beneficial nutrients. Just try the same "Housewife's Dream" and you'll understand everything!

Spread is a product based on vegetable fats. Roughly speaking, it's vegetable-based butter. Spreads contain vitamins, polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), and no harmful fats that cause atherosclerosis and cholesterol plaques. Margarine's composition is much worse in comparison. By the way, that spread, 'Housewife's Dream,' that Elizabeth mentioned, is really very good.

This cholesterol diet is just awful... I can't stand eating this spread and fat-free cottage cheese. And the cholesterol - the darn thing just won't budge! I have no energy at all!

Did they prescribe any medication? At least Dibikor? And why stick to such a strict diet, there's the Central Asian diet, it has lots of protein and seafood, it's actually quite tolerable to eat that way.

Nothing was prescribed. They said if it doesn't drop with the diet, they'll put me on statins. Thanks for the advice, I'll take Dibikor. Will it lower it quickly?

Nothing happens quickly. You need to take it long-term. Also, cut out stress, bad habits, and add physical activity, and everything will be fine! Good luck!

Pregnant, underweight baby, I'm normal. But cholesterol is 9!!! Can't take pills. As soon as I stop eating fatty foods, my weight drops to a minimum. And that's very bad for the baby. How can I lower cholesterol without losing weight?

Just a couple of months ago, the doctor said that according to my test results, my cholesterol was above normal. First, she put me on a diet and forbade me from eating "bad" foods, and second, she recommended taking Dibikor. This treatment is bearing fruit—my cholesterol is returning to normal, and my weight is gradually decreasing.

It's good when pills affect the body positively. My sister-in-law also lowered her cholesterol with medication, but they made her blow up like from hormones. After all that, her cholesterol did normalize for a while, but her weight stayed the same ( I'll whisper to her about Dibikor too, high cholesterol is her headache (and now extra weight too)...

Cholesterol is really not a good thing at all. My mom has been struggling with it for a long time, constantly on diets, and she cut out fatty and fried foods from her diet ages ago. This way, she does manage to normalize her cholesterol, but only temporarily—then it goes back up again... Now she’s also taking pills. There’s just no way without them...

Speaking of which, since we're talking about Dibikor, on top of everything, I also treated my liver with it, though that was kind of a positive 'side' effect; the main goal of taking the drug was still normalizing blood cholesterol.

I read somewhere that 80% of cholesterol is produced by the body itself, and the liver is involved in that too. So there's logic to your treatment approach.

To normalize cholesterol, you simply need to eat less fatty meat (pork), liver, eggs, oils, and fats... Eat more oranges, pistachios, beans, and chocolate. After a few months of such a diet, cholesterol should decrease. If not, then only medication will help.

Hello, dear forum members! I suffer from high cholesterol and have tried various ways to combat it, but little helps for long. I wanted to ask you about one product - [url=http://http://pravdozor.net/comments/medicina/bady/otzyvy/hole-stop/hole-stop-ne-popadites-na-poddelku-otzyvy[/url]. My neighbor says this is the only thing that saves him. However, I'm a bit hesitant to take it without a doctor's prescription. Does anyone have experience using this product for high cholesterol?

25.10.2016, cold 6.64, LPNP 5.16, sun 9 days, min water 5 days, thermal pools, cold 4.54, LPNP 3.31, by 15.11.2016, lab one diet, at that time alcohol and medications 0%.

In my case, diet does not raise or lower it, as determined by the doctor. I have not taken statins. The result came after the sanatorium.

Good day everyone!
I take statins for cholesterol (atorvastatin 10 mg). I always buy the medication abroad to ensure it's not counterfeit!
My doctor recommended trying Rosuvastatin 10 mg. I tried it and bought it in Italy—almost 100 tablets in 3 packs—but it didn’t suit me; I got headaches.
If anyone is taking this medication, I’m willing to sell it at half price. 3 boxes of 28 tablets each for 3,000 rubles.
Expiration date: 09/2018

My acquaintance's doctor prescribed Questran, in addition to diet and specific medications, to lower high cholesterol and for the prevention of atherosclerosis, myocardial infarction, and ischemic heart disease.

We didn't find this medication right away; we needed a European version. If anyone is interested, the pharmacy is called Europharmacy.rf (type it in Russian letters). They offer fast delivery, have it in stock, and work with regions. The main thing is that they have original medications.

Cholesterol can be brought back to normal without medication or any other physical intervention. Healers can fully normalize cholesterol without any adverse effects. With this treatment method, the impact occurs on an energetic level, targeting both the cholesterol itself and the root cause of the imbalance. This supports and regulates a balanced cholesterol level in the body.

Did you lose any weight? I also think it's only through diet. Well, sometimes they prescribe various supplements too, in our case - Cardioactive with fish oil. We took a course and that's it, the numbers are significantly better (but that's in combination with diet).
