vukmeister Posted March 17, 2005 Share Posted March 17, 2005 Well, I've read about that too kaya ngayon talaga eh healthy na akong kumain. Pero sabi nga ng doctor, dahil nga daw nasa family history namin, kahit na anong diet and exercise ko eh lalabas mataas pa din. We'll see after my next check up. Quote Link to comment
mandapong Posted March 23, 2005 Share Posted March 23, 2005 just went to the doctor after my chol level has been steadily moving up the past months - 225 in august, 240 in nov even after semi-controlled diet. and 1x basketball per week, nagpacheck uli ako last week 213 na lang after i started 2x basket per week nung january, not much change sa diet - meron pa ring occasional sisig, liempo, crab etc, mahirap na ang buhay ka nga di ka naman makakain ng masarap na pagkain. btw, BMI ko is 25 so average lang. prescription ng doctor: the usual diet (malamang di ko sundin) and exercise and C-lium fiber, check up uli daw sa june, tignan natin kung effective.

spitzky Posted March 25, 2005 Share Posted March 25, 2005 lower cholesterol will not gurantee cardiovascular health...search for cholesterol topics on: t-nation.com Quote Link to comment
spitzky Posted March 25, 2005 Share Posted March 25, 2005 substituting fish and seafoods to meat is sure way to lower your cholesterol levels...a change in cooking oil or the removal of cooking oil altogether in diet can also help.its best to stay in a vegetable and fruit diet, with soy based foods as alternates.<{POST_SNAPBACK}> that line of thinking is sooo typical of FLEX readers... bro, dont be blinded by their bullshit... dietary cholesterol has little to do with blood cholesterol... 1 stick of marlboro will mess up ur lipid profile much more effectively than a big plate of lechon...

pugadbaboy Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 Well, I've read about that too kaya ngayon talaga eh healthy na akong kumain. Pero sabi nga ng doctor, dahil nga daw nasa family history namin, kahit na anong diet and exercise ko eh lalabas mataas pa din. We'll see after my next check up.<{POST_SNAPBACK}> Really - sinabi ng doctor yan. Hmmmm, why don't you try to read up on Fish Oils, Flaxseed Oil and Lecithin supplements. These 3 have clinical trials showing that they reduce cholesterol - the American Heart Association even recommends fish oil. Read up on these supplements then discuss with your doctor. And what's good is that mura itong mga supplements na ito - just make sure na medyo branded yung bibilhin mo para sure na "clean" from pollutants yung fish oil. Not sure how updated your doctor is about these things - pero judge mo na lang - kung tipong kakabuka mo pa lang ng bibig eh babanat na yung doctor na "Sus, kalokohan yang mga supplements na yan." - well you might want to check on some modern-thinking doctors. Did your doctor really say na kahit anong exercise at diet ang gawin mo hindi bababa ang cholesterol mo ? Baka naman gusto ka lang nyang bentahan ng mga gamot. Ngayon lang ako nakarinig ng doctor na nagsasabi ng ganyan. Oh and bago ko makalimutan- common warning - if you're on medication - please consult your doctor before you take any supplements. Baka kasi may medication ka na from your doctor. Quote Link to comment
spitzky Posted April 8, 2005 Share Posted April 8, 2005 well although there is such a thing as familial hypercholesterolemia, make sure u dont hav one of those stuck-in-the-dark-ages type of doctors... :thumbsdownsmiley: Quote Link to comment

I work in the military and based in the U.S. so suffice it to say that my doctor is abreast with the latest clinical studies and research of the AHA. I'm currently on Zocor 40mg. I haven't consulted with my doc about taking supplements (thanks for the warning) but it has been my habit to take a multivitamin and fish oil. I also cook with olive oil now and increased my intake of antioxidants. Quote Link to comment

I am a certified fitness trainer too, and I also have a few friends practicing what they teach in the US... so please dont resort to name calling if you dont agree with something here, we're all at the same side. para di ot: "1 stick of marlboro will mess up ur lipid profile much more effectively than a big plate of lechon..."- true, pero pareho pa ring bawal for those watching their cholesterol levels.
