[QUOTE="TedKennedy, post: 3707293, member: 25419"] This is correct. In 2007 I went to see the doc because OBI said muh cholesterol was way high. (I had donated blood) He wanted me to take statins, and so I did for a few weeks. No ill side effects, but I had to go in for tests to make sure my liver wasn't being harmed....WHAT??? WTF would I take something that I have to monitor? I told doc I ain't gonna do it, what can I do to lower it naturally? (I was in great shape, none of this made sense) He said diet change, and aerobic exercise. I said "no problem". He was obviously skeptical - but I changed my diet and started running. A lot. It went down, all is well. That all being said, I've come to believe high cholesterol is more of an indicator of damage, rather than a cause of damage, so I don't worry about it so much anymore. The good habits I formed in lowering it back in 2007 have stuck though. [/QUOTE]
