HDL levels

[MASSIVEMONSTER]

I am an experienced bro, 220 at 5`8 - 11%

I know I should know but I hear Nolvadex helps with lipid values. How true is this?
I am running dbol (30mg), deca (400), prop (400) for 8 weeks.
Want Blood pressure and water retention down so runnig 20mg nolva a day.
Will it help with lipids?

Yep, Nolva has positive estrogenic effects in both the liver and bones (it also helps to increase bone density). Specifically for lipids - it assists in keeping LDL cholesterol in check, which is important for anyone using AAS.

Also consider Policosanol (from sugar cane extract) - take it before going to sleep at night.

some studies for liesure reading. Google "tamoxifen effects on blood lipids" for more studies. Also change tamoxifen to any other compund to see the affects. From my research of research done, nolva does have a positive effect on lipid profiles. I have never found a study conducted on men taking AAS, they are all on mice or post menapausal women w/ breast cancer but hopfully the results follow through to men.
There have been countless posts on this subject, there seems to be a lot of interest on how to control lipids while on. This is good as it tells me even the younger guys out there are thinking of keeping good health. How bout it mods, can we make a sticky on blood lipids??

What dose is effective for keeping lipids healthy?
20mg a day I plan to run...??

 

[slat1]

my readings:
hdl=33
ldl=68
*I was told I need to bring my hdl up a bit to 41 or so...

 

[bilter]

20mg PD should be fine. Most of the studies I have read are using that dose.
Slat1 have you tried nolva for you lipids. It supposed to raise HDL and lower TC. It would be interesting to see what you see for results.

I got the same prob with HDL-mine was 29 and LDL was 44. I am doubling my flax oil to 4 tablespoons a day to see that helps. I did not realize that about Nolva increasing HDL.

My HDL was like 22 and the doc put me on Niacin (brand Niaspan) just before bed. Oh I'm also should take a asprian half hour before the niacin for some reason. I heard that cranberry can lower hdl as well...02
