than your diet wasn't good. Sorry. Nobody has high cholesterol "just because". You may have a hereditary tendency to not process high cholesterol foods the same way someone else does........but if you're not taking in cholesterol in the first place, it's impossible to have high cholesterol. The supplements you're taking just mask your dietary misalignment. I haven't yet completely got my diet in check yet either, it's a work in progress........but my cholesterol levels have dropped alot and I don't take ANY supplements whatsoever anymore. Not even multivitamins, they give me arrythmia's. With the amount of "green" shit I eat now, it's not necessary. There is such a thing as "too much" supplementation. In any case the body would much rather get it's nutrients from raw food than from pills..........not exactly sure why that is, maybe somebody knows.

on another note, ive had bad cholesterol my entire life, even as a young teen. it wasn't untell I started taking supliments like fish oil,garlic,policosanol,flaxseed,and low dose asprin. that I had normal cholesterol levels for the first time in my life.

I got a small craft container that has many small chambers, like a rubermade type plastic one, even a tackle box type will work. I set up my supliments for the week and take them everyday. its worth trying and everything is available at walmart.

btw, ive had both a nucular scan and echo. during the echo they took many snapshots to check for inflamatinon. any differences in measurements will show this.they can view it on screen and measure it like a cad drawing. everything came back good. doctor even stated he was happy with the rate at which my pulse increaced on the stress test.

Shit that's scary, glad you're okay now. Did you have any symptoms at all leading up to passing out?

Truck looks like it held up pretty well, at least well enough to save your asses. What is that, a Trailblazer/Envoy? Truck safety has really improved a lot in the past decade.

My total cholesterol was 203, slightly above where the docs like to see it. My HDL number was lower than my LDL, but I have to get those exact numbers from the hospital. The docs did state that my lipids, rbc, and hemoglobin were'nt all that bad. The highest my total cholesterol has ever been was 227 several years ago. Please remember that these numbers were taken in the middle of a cycle. I don't feel like they are that bad for on cycle numbers.

I didn't give up meat entirely, if that's what you think......but I did seriously curb my consumption. Fish I still eat alot of. The only meat I eat is steak, which can be cooked rare.....no chicken or beef. It's your call........not sure what your heart problem was, but I've gotten a small glimpse of "death", and even giving up meat entirely (which I haven't done) is a small price to pay. I actually enjoy eating meat now more because I eat it so sparingly......it really tastes better now. But my main staple of protein are vegetable proteins now.......and my energy is better than it ever was, at least since I was a little kid. I really thought that I was just going to have to live with being weaker in the gym, didn't happen. In fact the opposite is starting to become apparent. I've dropped fat like madman while maintaining all my strength. I'm still not completely back to where I was completely.....but it seems to be creeping back. The only thing holding me back is my heart right now.

guys, this dude is a nuclear medicine "technologist"......not shitting on that field, but he personally is trying to come off like a doctor. Dude, you were trying to compare educational background with me..........well I have an ME degree, and you're in night school. That doesn't make me any better than anyone else.....heck, I'm not even in the field anymore. But please dude........I mean talk about an ego. Fucking pathetic. And try googling arythmia's you dolt. This is a prime example of you can technically train a monkey to do some impressive things, but in then end it's still a monkey. Fuck sake.

redsamurai:

I meant not to belittle what you have been through. I respect the fact that you have your own opinions and beliefs based on personal experience. However, please do not present your opinions in a way that some may misconstrue them as factual information, just because "Dr. so and so told me so." Fell free to post as many opinions as you wish. I will continue to believe what is taught is medical school, and I will only post factual information which I can back up with well respected literature.

It will serve no purpose to argue facts vs. opinions. So to those who view this thread and wonder what the facts are, I invite you to do your own research on these topics using respected medical literature such as medical journals, medical encyclopedias, and text books. Be wary of personal opinions and biased information passed on via word of mouth, mens health magazines, and wikipedia however.

Ok. AGAIN...., let me say...., believe what you will. You are the one acting like a child here. Try to grow up and act your age. So now allow me to PUBLICLY request that you cease sending me pms. If I am such a "dolt" as you put it, they stop wasting your time by SENDING ME PMS! They will not be answered. I tired to apologize and be nice, and you are still acting immature. I am not a member of Elite Fitness to argue my life away with immature keyboard gangsters who like to argue, and run their mouth instead of contribute something meaningful to the board based on proven medical fact as opposed to opinions.

In closing..., why don't you try using Google to look up "arythmia's" since you don't even know how to spell it correctly. For future reference, the correct spelling is arrhythmia.

that's your ace huh? That's all you got.......I misspelled it. Ok bro, you got me.



And when you go to work monday, ask the cardiologist that you work for what the relationship between Ischemia and arrhythmia's are. And just in case you were not aware, yes people can feel arrhythmia's. Which brings us back to "stress EKG's are pointless for healthy people just trying to ascertain their predisposition toward heart disease".


And no worries on future pm's. Just make sure you actually know what you're talking about and understand the discussion before you offer your opine's. Most of this probably would have been avoided if you would have just absorbed what you read properly.
