Fresh stuff that doesn't hold long term. I had to grab more salad spring mix this week.If you keep a full pantry, and I do, why the need to run out at the last minute to buy stuff? Maybe I have a different idea about what a full pantry is.
My wife and I both used lecithin to get our cholesterol in balance, in addition to reducing our intake of fried foods.Don't ever take a statin. Exercise with help to raise the good cholesterol. I never get mine checked any more, I never agreed with the doctors that tried to push statins on me.
Many years ago I had a well paying job, but it was also the job from hell because of my co workers. One day I was trying to read a lawyers hand writing and it was so difficult to decipher, I was straining to get it typed up and started having upper back pain that radiated to my chest. I had to lay down on the office floor. Someone got me a wheel chair and I ended up in ER. After it was determined that I was not having a heart attack the nurse came in with some meds for me to take and I asked her what they were. One of course was a statin, statins were being given out like candy. I refused it and the woman was completely shocked. I told her I would never take a statin. As I've said before I'm outspoken and I guess people are taken aback by it. I never give in. Among other things I also told her I need cholesterol for my brain. And guess what, now its being admitted that is in fact the case. Just a money maker and "they" wanted as many people as they could get on it. Sounds familiar.
I've kinda been back on my diet. Kinda in the respect that I'm not eating off of the foods on it just not like is recommended. I've not weighed but I'm not craving any sweets. And I'm not really hungry.
Every tried plant sterols which are the substance that is in abundance in red wine? Works for us. We also use coQ10 and lecithin.I would like to get off statin medication. I've talked to doctor about it but she feels the risk for stroke is too great to quit. Wish I'd never started on it. I've thought about going to every other day and then every third day for a month or three before my next physical and see if the numbers change. Lecithin sounds like a good idea if it works.
Your doctor is following in line with what they have been indoctronated to get people on statins. Its poison, do whatever it takes to get off of it. Research is your friend.I would like to get off statin medication. I've talked to doctor about it but she feels the risk for stroke is too great to quit. Wish I'd never started on it.
