Controlling your cholesterol during a cycle.....everybody should follow this

[kiloamp]

Great post Fonz and just in time for me. My doctor has been trying to get me to start Lipitor which I've been trying to avoid. Just had my blood work done and it was normal for me (same as it was 20 years ago) LDL:159 and HDL:69. Anyway, I picked up a bottle of policosanol at the drug store and am starting at 20mg/day.

Karma for some great advise.

thanks Fonz, my doc wanted to put me on that high strength niacin but I couldnt take the effects. Got all red, blotchy and hot. Not for me...

Fonz, how long were you on AAS for these tests?

I know you tend to stay on for very long times, so wouldn't someone on normal length cycles (10-12 wk) see even better HDL:LDL ratios?

Or do lipids quickly hit unfavorable ratios even while on relatively short cycles?

Either way, this looks like a great supp which addresses a side effect that way too many people ignore.

I had been on for about 2 years.

And you're most likely correct in your assumption that somebody who does a normal 10-12 week cycle of AAS would see an even better HDL:LDL ratio. In this case though, I'd use 40mg/day of policosanol, just to see the effect faster. As its not toxic, there isn't a problem with the dosage.

Lipids = triglycerides?(I'll assume thats what you meant)

10mg Novaldex will improve your lipid profile to acceptable levels.
R-ALA and both Synthetic and normal Guggulsterones are also great for this. Normal Guggulsterones also have the added benefit of being probably the best OTC anti-acneic medication out there.

Btw,

My triglyceride levels (May 21st,2003) were : 87
and 2 months after that (Aug.12th,2003) they were: 95

Well within normal parameters.

Fonz, would it be best to use the Policosanol while on-cycle and the "Red Yeast Rice" while off-cycle or just use the Policosanol all the time. Sorry, for asking but I am not always on-cycle

Total farce. Does nothing while on AAS. Also Beta-statin(From the statin class of drugs), does show some chol improvement but is hepatoxic.

And E23: Synthetic Guggulsterones are hypolipidemic as well. They will lower triglyceride levels.

Good work Fonz

Fonz, I have a quqqqestion for you: Are you concerned with having a total cholesterol level which is TOO LOW?

It looks like the Policosanol did do the job, but maybe too well. I heve been researching "low cholesterol" and 134 seems to be low enough to cause other problems which are as bad as chlosterol being to high??

What to you think? Iam already taking the stuff but now Iam concerned that it may lower total Chlosertol TOO MUCH?

Your input is appreciated. thanks Bro!
