And, always tell patients that we humans have 0 need to eat cholesterol. We synthesize it. We’re healthier when we eat exclusively plants & mushrooms 🌱🍄

… and may never need to worry about our LDL-c levels 😎

Warum Haferflocken den Cholesterinspiegel schon nach zwei Tagen senken können Gerade einmal zwei Tage – so kurz kann es dauern, bis sich der Cholesterinspiegel messbar verbessert. Entscheidend sind Haferflocken, die fast jeder im Schrank hat.

High LDL (cholesterol) can be a big issue in lipodystrophy — but there are multiple paths to lowering it.
• Lifestyle foundations
• Statins (and why tolerance varies)
• Non-statin options like ezetimibe, PCSK9 inhibitors, and bempedoic acid

The Buried Truth About High Cholesterol and Heart Disease In today's episode we're challenging the belief that cholesterol is the main cause of heart disease. Did you know 75% of heart attack patients have "normal" cholesterol levels? We dive into 50 years of buried data, including the Minnesota Coronary Experiment, which showed that lowering cholesterol didn't always save lives—it even increased death risk in some cases. We explore why insulin resistance and inflammation are the real culprits, the side effects of statins, and why your body needs cholesterol for brain health. Learn the markers that truly matter.

Colesterolo: la strategia in tre passi per riportarlo nella norma Vuoi riportare il tuo colesterolo nella norma e proteggere il cuore? Ecco i tre passi fondamentali: 1️⃣ Riduci i grassi saturi: burro, strutto, olio di palma, latticini grassi, carne e insaccati. 2️⃣ Elimina gli zuccheri semplici: zucchero bianco, dolci, bibite zuccherate, carboidrati raffinati. Preferisci dolcificanti vegetali e carboidrati integrali. 3️⃣ Mangia cibi “medicina”: zucca, nocciole, patate dolci e altri alimenti naturali che aiutano a prevenire l’eccesso di grassi nel sangue. https://palcoscenicomondo.blog/2025/11/27/colesterolo-la-strategia-in-tre-passi-per-riportarlo-nella-norma/
