Post your Cholesterol Levels page

This will be a proof that we as Primals have healthy cholesterol levels !

Glad to see this resurface, as not all of us have gotten good results:

Right now I'm looking at fish oil and niacin, and considering the unhappy possibility that my genetics are more powerful than my diet...

Very nice Acmebike.. Keep it up !

Maybe you should post your pictures in the "Grok body" thread.

These are from before I was truly primal (no sugar, no grains, no legumes) but was eating a diet very high in saturated fat and animal protein:


Total 156

LDL 74

HDL 71

Trigs 54


I've been fully primal for 5 months now and at next test I expect HDL will be higher and trigs lower.. and probably total higher as well, which would be a good thing considering all the health effects associated with TC under 160.

Bumping to get past the recent troll infestation!

This is after 2-3 months of PB


Total : 252


HDL : 42 (Is very low ..don't know why)

LDL : 198 by Friedewald and 167 by Iranian equation

Tri : 60


What do you think guys? Any suggestions to improve HDL. Are the TriGly too high?

No idea, those tests cost money.

Last time I had mine checked was about 3 years ago. Mine were:


HDL: 100

LDL: 47


My mom's side of the family has unusually high HDL counts.


Now that I've been primal for over 6 months, I will probably have it checked again.
