Ideal Cholesterol Levels – The American Heart Association Standard of Normal Cholesterol Levels

Posted By on November 7, 2011

Ideal Cholesterol Levels – The American Heart Association Standard of Normal Cholesterol Levels

Striving for ideal cholesterol levels is one of the things that you can do to reduce your risk of heart disease and stroke. But, even if your levels are currently low and can be classified as normal, it’s still smart to eat a heart-healthy diet food, be physically active and avoiding smoking of tobacco (especially the smoking part.. it’s a bad habit that causes cholesterol in your blood to be oxidized).

Those are the recommendations made by the American Heart Association. The Association emphasizes the importance of weight control by maintaining a healthy weight, as well.

Once a person passes the age of 20, they should have their blood serum levels checked every five years to monitor the danger signs of unusual cholesterol level. Borderline or high numbers can be predictors of heart disease. The important factors include total triglycerides, total HDL and total LDL count.

As we all know well, LDL builds up in the blood vessels and arteries, while HDL carries LDL back to the liver for reprocessing or excretion.

Only a portion of total circulating cholesterol comes from diet. This is the part we are able of controlling. The rest, an average of 1 gram per day, is produced within the liver. Things that stimulate this production include excessive alcohol intake and eating simple carbohydrates. Complex carbohydrates from fruits and vegetables decrease production of cholesterol.

Ideally, the highest cholesterol levels for a woman would be less than 200mg total, with 50-60mg or higher for HDL and less than 100mg of LDL. If your total number is in the range of 200 and 240, but the test did not show the readings of LDL and HDL levels, your doctor should order a “fasting profile” testing, according to the American Heart Association. This way, He can have a more accurate measurement of your cardiovascular condition.

A fasting blood glucose level might also be ordered at the same time. This test can identify pre-diabetes. Type II diabetes is another risk factor for poor cardio health, but it has been shown in numerous studies that lifestyle and dietary changes can prevent pre-diabetes from becoming type II diabetes.

After you get the test result, ask as much information as possible from your doctor about what it means.

The ideal cholesterol levels for a man are less than 200mg total, 40-50mg or higher for HDL and less than 100mg of LDL. This is very similar to those of a woman, but the average HDL level is slightly lower for a man than for a woman. When it comes to HDL, higher is better.

There are several ways to increase the HDL level, so it will reach the safe LDL-HDL ratio, which is 4.4:1. Do a little calculation by yourself after you get your test result. If your level is higher than this standard, you may need a special treatment or medicine from your doctor.

Increasing intake of omega3 fatty acids can help. Dietary sources include fish, walnuts and flax seed oil. Canola oil is also a good source and should be used for cooking or baking.

Getting 30-60 minutes of physical activity on most days has also been shown to help in raising HDL and helps lower blood sugar levels, too.

When it comes to daily dietary intake, the ideal cholesterol levels are between 200 and 300mg per day. Less is better. Plant oils do not contain cholesterol. Animal fats do. The best suggestion is to eat more fruits and vegetables, along with a serving of fish, every day.

Magnetic method Boards – One More Way to Use Vinyl Lettering For Your Craft Projects

Magnetic method Boards – One More Way to Use Vinyl Lettering For Your Craft Projects

You may ask “what can you use vinyl lettering for?” Well, possibly a more accepted response would be “what can’t you use it for?” Vinyl lettering has so many practical uses. From craft ideas such as ornamental signs, tiles, and plaques to other uses such as decorating a baby’s room, or etching your name into your pyrex baking dishes. Vinyl lettering has a lot of distinct uses.

Another great way to use vinyl lettering to add a touch of style to your home is by using convention vinyl lettering to make a magnetic method board. I came up with the idea for a magnetic method board out of my love for cooking, and the anguish that followed when my recipes would get all “messy” from sitting on the counter. I view to myself while cooking some of my homemade Bbq Sauce “Wouldn’t it be nice to have some way of keeping my recipes up off of the counter.” And then the idea struck….what about taking a picture frame, painting it to match our kitchen, and then placing some sheet metal (found at most craft stores) in the middle. I did exactly that, and have loved this magnetic method board so much, that I’ve made them for some of my friends and family.

You can customize the board to meet you needs. Either you use full page recipes, as I do, or 4×6 cards, you can make a magnetic method board to fit your personal preference. What’s more, is that you can customize it even further by applying some convention vinyl lettering to the frame of the board. These boards not only make good method boards, but bulletin, picture, and message boards as well.

No matter what the use, vinyl lettering has so many unique applications for home deocor and crafts that it would be impossible to touch on them all in this article. But, from my experience, the possibilities are as limitless as your own imagination.

Side Effects Of Glucosamine Chondroitin

Side Effects Of Glucosamine Chondroitin

http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5242/5218150157_95eee102f7_m.jpg

Glucosamine and Chondroitin are the building blocks of cartilage and connecting tissues. Glucosamine, also known as chitosamine, is a substance that occurs naturally in the covering of shellfish. Glucosamine is available in natural forms such as glucosamine hydrochloride, glucosamine sulfate as well as in synthetic forms. Chondroitin occurs naturally in shark or bovine cartilage. It is also synthesized in the labs. Chondroitin is also called chondroitin sulfate, chondroitin sulfuric acid and chonsurid.

Glucosamine is usually combined with chondroitin to help people suffering from osteoarthritis. Studies have shown that this combination can improve the function of bones and restore cartilage. Chondroitin has ophthalmic uses too. It is present in the eye drop used during cataract removal and is also used to treat dry eyes. Research is being conducted to use chondroitin as an anticoagulant.

Every action is countered by a reaction and it’s true in the case of medicines too. They cause side effects depending on the person and the dosage taken. Studies show that glucosamine supplemented with chondroitin is usually safe to consume, but may have a few side effects. Common side effects include nausea, diarrhea, constipation, stomach pain, irregular heartbeats, hair loss and gastrointestinal upsets. Some people suffer from major side effects like intraocular hypertension where high pressure builds up inside the eyes as a result of using chondroitin in the eyes.

People who have an allergy to shellfish must not take Glucosamine chondroitin. Diabetics must also be careful as it might elevate insulin levels in blood. Patients on blood thinners must use chondroitin only after consulting their physician.

Chondroitin is a large molecule and may not be well absorbed by the gastrointestinal tract. Oral doses of glucosamine supplemented with chondroitin usually range from 400mg to 1200 mg per day taken in two or three doses. Glucosamine chondroitin is better to consume when compared to other supplements of chondroitin like manganese.

Worried About That Statin Drug? Take A Look At Vitamin B3 Nicotinic Acid!

Worried About That Statin Drug? Take A Look At Vitamin B3 Nicotinic Acid!

http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5249/5218752696_120013578f_m.jpg

When my doc said that my cholesterol was too high and that he feared that I could be at risk for cardiovascular disease without the start of drug therapy, I knew I needed to get serious. Now I am no expert on things like Lipitor or Crestor, but I am an advocate against taking any drug that can be avoided through the use of natural methods such as good diet and supplementation. And since I am in my early 40s and have no health issues other than being about 20 pounds heavier than I should be, I went looking for another alternative.

I have been a student of natural health and supplementation for as long as I can remember. Now, when I say student, that is what I mean. I am not an expert and even worse, I was not practicing, just learning. As I was about to leave my doctor’s office, he provided me with a pamphlet with an 800 number to call for nutritional help and provided me with these parting words; “Remember to exercise daily, and most of all practice Portion Control. The exercise thing, I have been doing, but portion control, that was an interesting comment that stuck with me.

When I got home, I placed the pamphlet on nutritional help aside for the moment and decided to try and do some research on the best way to reduce cholesterol safely and quickly since I only had 3 months until my next booked blood test. From past research, I seemed to recall the Niacin vitamin B3 was touted as having a favorable mention as a natural way to reduce ones LDL’s and increase the HDL’s. So I decided to start with learning what I could about B3 (the water soluble vitamin).

As it turns out there are 2 main variants of vitamin B3, Nicotinamide and Nicotinic Acid. Both of these are referred to as Niacin. However, there is a major distinction that must be made and understood. Nicotinamide is often the most popular of the two which you will find in a B complex, multiple vitamin and as B3 on your vitamin supplement supplier’s shelf. The Nicotinamide version is thought, by many, to be the better of the two as it is often slow release and does not cause flushing. This is true, but that is where the benefits stop. Nicotinamide will do NOTHING to improve your cholesterol levels, and as far as I understand, presents a far greater risk of adversely affecting your liver. The bottom line is if you choose to supplement your nutrition with vitamin B3, especially for the purpose of improving your Cholesterol levels, you should be choosing Vitamin B3 with the active ingredient of Nicotinic Acid, NOT Nicotinamide.

So, what are the side effects from using Nicotinic Acid? The largest and most common known side effect in controlled quantities is that of flushing. Flushing, for the unexpected, can be a very scary symptom as some may confuse this reaction with a more serious allergic reaction. However, there is no need for concern. Nicotinic Acid is a vasodilator, meaning that it will open up your tiny blood capillaries (arteries) that reach to your outermost regions of your body, just below your skin. This dilation causes a flushing redness to your skin, often resembling a sunburn or even hives without the swelling. Accompanying the redness is a slight burning, again almost like a sunburn feeling, along with mild itching. Even to this day, when I get a flush reaction, it scares the heck out of my wife. It looks much worse than it feels, and it can feel very uncomfortable for up to 45 minutes. I don’t always get this reaction, however, the higher the dose I take, the more likely I will react. The reaction can occur from within minutes to up to an hour after taking the B3, which I almost always supplement with a B50.

I am not going to get into the technical mechanism of how the Cholesterol is effected, but I do want to provide you with some food for thought by posing the following question; How bad can it be to dilate your capillaries (small arteries), and thus enabling fresh oxygen and nutrients to reach parts of your body that are starving for such goodness? And, not to forget, the additional action of cleansing these areas by removing toxins that are stored and produced by your body.

Okay, so what has this done for me so far? In answering this question, I ask that you keep in mind that my regular regiment of Nicotinic Acid was not done in isolation. With it, I also included other supplements such as a good multivitamin, high fiber diet, limited portions per meal and of course regular exercise. In three months, I was able to reduce my total cholesterol by almost 25%. This reduction resulted in similar adjustments in the other individual factors such as my LDL and Triglycerides as well. My doctor was very pleased and explained to me that now that I have proved that I can control my Cholesterol, and am not one of the rare individuals who due to genetics have no choice but to be put on a Statin, I can avoid the use of synthetic drugs. I still have a way to go to get to my ideal levels, but the initial three month kick off was monumental and I absolutely know that my regular intake of Nicotinic Acid was an essential ingredient.

Of course before starting your road to better health and lower cholesterol, please make sure you consult with your own medical health adviser. Outcomes may and likely will vary from individual to individual, including possible adverse reactions.

HCG Diet – Commonly Asked Questions About Side Effects and Medications

Posted By on November 3, 2011

HCG Diet – Commonly Asked Questions About Side Effects and Medications

As the HCG diet is becoming more and more popular and a trusted method of dieting, many people are starting on this diet and since most of these people are new to it, they have several questions about it. I have compiled several questions that are frequently asked about side effects of using HCG drops and common medications that dieters take while they are on the diet drops.

Question
I am not sure about the compatibility of some medications and the HCG drops. Please tell me if I can take the drops while I am on the following medications: 5mg Zocor, 30mg Prozac, 2 1/2mg Abilify, 50mg Coozar, 30mg Actos.

Answer
Homeopathics like HCG should not interfere with your medications you currently take and listed in your question, however, I must insist that you consult your attending physician so that he/she can make any neccessary adjustments to your medication regiment. As people lose weight, their medication needs also change. This email should not be taken as medical advise and the HCG drops are not intented to diagnose, treat, or cure any illness. Please consult a physician before beginning an HCG or any other diet program.

Question
I just purchased a 21 day supply of homeopathic HCG and have a couple questions regarding safety. Where does the HCG hormone come from, and is it safe to use? I know you can’t believe everything you read online, but I read somewhere that you could get diseases from it. Any info you can give me would be very much appreciated.

Answer
HCG weight-loss supplements/drops that are manufactured by reputable companies is derived from natural resources (human) and put through a rigorous process of testing and purification to isolate the hormone therein. To be compliant with GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices) and the FDA, this process is a must. You cannot get a disease through taking homeopathic HCG. A common advice I always give to people is not to purchase any medications or homeopathic medicines from outside the USA. Many countries in the world do not maintain the same quality, purity, and safety standards that have been estiblished in the United States. I hope this answered your question.

Question
I have used HCG drops from an unknown company and have lost a lot of hair. I am told it will grow back; what has been your experience with hair loss? I need to go on another round but I am afraid I may lose even more hair. Also how many drops and how many times a day? I have read to do 26 days: the last 3 with no drops but still on 500 calories. How come so many places sell 21 day bottles then?

Answer
There are a few issues that you are addressing. Let me address the dosage and time frame first. Most companies market their product as a 21 day diet because there is much debate over whether or not to load for 2 or 3 days, or to include the 3 day loading or gorging period afterwards when you continue on with 500 calories without the drops.

A more important issue is the loss of hair you experienced. Although extremely rare, some women react differently to HCG than the great majority. I have not had any clients report any hair loss, although I am aware of some women, like you, that have lost it while on HCG injections and some cheap brands of drops. You are correct that your hair should grow back; the inconvenience is temporary.

Question
The diet is too strict and it seems when I take the drops I get extremely sleepy. What would you recommend as an expert?

Answer
You are right, the diet is very strict, by design. Dr. Simeons found that people achieved the greatest results while following the diet as outlined. That having been said, some people have had to revise the diet based on medical needs or even lifestyle needs, like a body builder or athlete for instance. As far as fatigue or drowsiness: HCG has a balancing effect and most people report sleeping better at night, but being sleepy after you take the drops is not normal. If you feel that you need to modify the diet, I would encourage you to listen to you body. We would recommend speaking with you physician to make sure that there are no underlying ailments or medical needs. Your doctor can also advise you on modifications based on your health and lifestyle. I hope that this is helpful and that it has answered all of your questions.

Can High Dose Statin Help Reduce Blood Cholesterol Levels

Posted By on November 2, 2011

Can High Dose Statin Help Reduce Blood Cholesterol Levels

High blood cholesterol level can raise the risk of getting heart disease. And if one with high blood cholesterol already develops some form of heart disease for example heart attack, then the situation becomes more serious.

As such, persons with heart trouble and high blood cholesterol levels are sometimes put by their doctors on high dosage of statin drugs so as to quickly lower their blood cholesterol levels. However, a study, published in the online version of the Journal of the American Medical Association in 2004, reported that the high dosage of statin can offer only a marginal benefit compared to the current treatment.

Under normal circumstances, patients at risk of another heart attack are first stabilized and put on low-cholesterol diets before introducing cholesterol-lowering drugs such as statin. Nonetheless, in the study funded by Merck and Co. Inc., half of the 4,500 patients were given a daily dose of 40 mg of simvastatin, which the company sells under the brand name Zocor, for 30 days and then raised to 80 mg daily. The drug was given within about 4 days of the initial heart event. The other half of the patients were given a placebo for 4 months, the put on a 20 mg dose of simvastatin.

While cholesterol levels dropped more sharply in the first group, the risks of suffering another heart attack, stroke, readmission to the hospital or heart-related death were comparable in the 2 groups.

Among those who went on the drug regimen right away, 14 percent suffered another heart event, compared to 17 percent taking a placebo initially – a difference that was not seen as statistically significant. Patients were followed for between 6 months and 2 years.

In addition, 0.4 percent of those on the heavier dose of simvastatin suffered from myopathy, a type of muscle pain and weakness, and statins can cause liver problems in a few cases. Even so, the researchers said the findings favored quick use of statins.

Until recently, little information was available about the timing of initiating statin drugs after a heart attack. The findings from the trial suggested that statins can be initiated earlier and in dosages well above the typical starting dose. However, patients should be closely monitored by the doctors for side effects.

In the eyes of some observers in this field, the study’s findings point to a cautious approach in using the 80 mg simvastatin dose, though 40 mg dose appears to be safe and effective.

Effects of Clouds on a Solar Panel

Posted By on November 1, 2011

Effects of Clouds on a Solar Panel

Solar panels hold a wealth of benefits, both for individuals and for the world at large. Economically, solar panels promise to lower the cost of electrical power. Environmentally, solar panels can give us cleaner power, sustainable power that will not want supplementary damage to the environment. Solar power can reach remote areas. It can carry education, or urgently needed curative information.

The effects of clouds on a solar panel, though, might diminish those and other promising benefits.

The effects of clouds on a solar panel might make it far less effective in confident parts of the world and at confident seasons.

For that reason, population who are inspecting solar panels for their homes are often heard to ask: will clouds sway my solar panels?

Will Clouds sway My Solar Panels?

Clouds do sway solar panels. The amount of power your solar panels can yield is directly dependent on the level of light they receive.

In full, intriguing sunlight, solar panels receive maximum levels of light. While those “peak” sunlight hours, your solar panels will yield power at their maximum capacity.

When clouds cover the sun, light levels are reduced. This does not shut down power production, however. If there is enough light to cast a shadow, in spite of the clouds, your solar panels should control at about half of their full capacity. Thicker cloud cover will reduce operations further. Eventually, with heavy cloud cover, solar panels will yield very exiguous useful power.

The Good News!

The effects of clouds on a solar panel can be surprising good, however. Incredibly, your solar panels will put out their ultimate amount of peak power While cloudy weather!

As the sun moves into a hole in the middle of the clouds, your solar panels will see something wonderful. They will see full direct sunlight “plus” reflected light from the clouds! They will drink in more vigor than they could on a cloudless day!

The effects of clouds on a solar panel could then yield peaks at or above 50 percent more than its direct-sun output!

Meeting the Challenge

There are ways to meet the cloud challenge.

1. If you often have clouds in the afternoon, but mornings are clear, aim your solar panels slightly toward the east.

2. Be sure you use a large enough battery system to maximize the amount of power stored for use when the clouds arrive.

3. Make sure your controller has fullness of headroom over the rated panel production power so that it can suck in the surges when the sun reflects off the clouds.

Those tricks and more are practiced in cloudy regions of the world where population have sprinted far ahead of the United States in their use of solar panel energy.

Effects of Clouds on a Solar Panel in Germany

Germany is typically a very cloudy country. Read about the atmosphere of Germany, and you will find that it is “temperate and marine; cool, cloudy, wet winters and summers; occasional warm mountain (foehn) wind” according to Nation Master’s website.

In spite of its cloudy climate, though, Germany is by far the world’s biggest user of solar panels. If you lived in Germany, you could sell back to the main power grid all of the excess electricity produced by your solar panels. Why would I even care in such a cloudy climate? If clouds sway my solar panels too much, I would not worry about selling back to the main grid.

In 2006, Germany opened the largest solar park in the world. Germany also has Europe’s most contemporary solar housing project – a solar village of 50 solar houses that yield more vigor than they use!

Will clouds sway my solar panels? Even if I lived in Germany, the supervene would not be enough to forego solar power.

Tip: There are few places that are so consistently cloudy that solar power is out of the question. Improvements are being made constantly, and even solar panels small enough to fold into a briefcase can yield helpful amounts of power.

Statin Drugs and Muscle Pain

Posted By on October 31, 2011

Statin Drugs and Muscle Pain

Statin drugs are relatively new but their use is expanding at a very rapid rate. Some of the most popular statin drugs are zocor, mevacor, lipitor, crestor and several others. These drugs are used to lower or slow down LDL-cholesterol (bad cholesterol) production. Statins are typically combined with fibrates which also help them lower triglycerides (the fat in your blood) as well.

The most common side effects of statin drugs are myalgia (muscle pain), liver damage and digestive problems.Using statin drugs will increase your risk substantially of developing statin myalgia in the form of lower back pain, leg pain and other musculoskeletal complaints. Statin myalgia is muscle pain caused by the use of statin drugs. This seems to be the most common side effect of using statin drugs. Some studies show as much as a 50-60% increased risk of developing these musculoskeletal complaints when compared to people of the same age who do not use statins. In severe cases the breakdown of muscle tissue can even lead to irreversible kidney damage.

Creatine phosphokinase (CPK) is an enzyme found mainly in the skeletal muscle, heart and brain. By monitoring the levels of CPK in the blood you can tell if the statin drugs that you are taking are causing any damage to your muscles. If you take multiple medications keep in mind that there are also other medications that can cause elevated enzymes in your blood. Many physicians will dismiss or ignore the sometimes devastating side effects that this class of drugs can have on the body.

If you are considering beginning a course of statin drugs make sure your doctor does blood tests before you start. It is critical to get a baseline CPK blood level before you start any statin therapy so if you subsequently develop myalgia you can retest your CPK levels to see if you are damaging your muscles. Your doctor should also be monitoring your liver enzymes as well as a matter of routine. The supplement CoQ10 has been shown to be effective in treating the myalgia associated with the use of statins.

Start CoQ10 which is readily available at most reputable drug or health food stores. Dosage should be 200-300 mg per day. If the symptoms are severe enough to interfere with your routine daily activities and is lowering your overall quality of life you should talk with the prescribing doctor and discuss possible reduction in dosage or possibly trial withdrawal of the offending statin.

If You Take a Statin You Need Coenzyme Q10

If You Take a Statin You Need Coenzyme Q10

http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5269/5895393016_5589544948.jpg

If you currently take a statin drug such as Lipitor, Zocor, Levacor, Crestor, or another statin your doctor should have recommended that you take at least 100mgs of coenzyme Q10 along with it. Unfortunately it has been my experience that many doctors do not make this recommendation to their patients.

If your doctor has made this recommendation to you consider yourself fortunate to have a great doctor. If your doctor has not then you may question his decision making. All statin drugs work on the principle of blocking your own livers production of cholesterol. Statins have little effect on the cholesterol that we consume through food.

That is why there are many people that can eat very low cholesterol in there diet and still have high serum cholesterol readings. Because there own liver just keeps pumping out more cholesterol. When the statin drug works as it should, blocking the livers production of cholesterol, it also blocks your livers production of coenzyme Q10.

The side effects of statins are often muscle aches and muscle weakness. This is because coenzyme Q10 blood levels are directly related to cellular and muscular energy in the body. And the most important muscle in the body is the heart. Low Q10 levels have been present in a large percent of heart attack patients. It is ironic that in trying to prevent heart attacks by lowering cholesterol with statin drugs we are lowering our coenzyme to the point of putting ourselves at even more risk of heart attacks. Coenzyme Q10 is essential for cardiovascular health.

Bad Cholesterol Control – How To Lower It Instantly

Posted By on October 27, 2011

Bad Cholesterol Control – How To Lower It Instantly

Studies show that the genes we inherit are closely related to the high rise in the cholesterol levels of our body.

This rise in the cholesterol levels also comes due to several other factors like:

1. Unhealthy lifestyle

2. Saturated fat intakes & calories

3. Unhealthy eating habits

4. Lack of exercises

5. Excessive drinking

6. Menopausal stage among women – it is when estrogen goes on a brink to diminish

7. Age factor – senior citizens often suffer this ailment.

The key cause of heart diseases as the doctors suggest is cholesterol. High cholesterol level in the blood can not only lead to heart attacks but also several weight problems. Let us first understand what this cholesterol is – It is a waxy fat-like substance naturally made in the liver of our body. Though cholesterol holds a thorough ‘bad guy image,’ surprisingly it serves many vital functions for our healthy living.

Basically, cholesterol is of two types:

i. Low Density Lipoprotein or LDL

ii. High-Density Lipoprotein or HDL

Low Density Lipoprotein or LDL

1. It is the actual bad guy. It is this type of cholesterol that clogs the blood vessels leading to increased risks of heart attack and other heart diseases.

2. The researchers have now proved that diet comprising of highly saturated fats increase the level of LDL cholesterol in our body, though it is only a dietary cause for the same.

High-Density Lipoprotein or HDL

This is ‘the good man’ or to be more specific, the favorable type of cholesterol.

1. It clears ‘the bag guy’ that is the LDL cholesterol from our blood stream, thereby, reducing the risk of all heart ailments.

2. Researches have shown that a diet rich in fruit and vegetables along with average levels of omega-3 from fish oil greatly helps raise HDL cholesterol levels.

In the absence of any remedial measures, the rising levels of LDL cholesterol can lead heart ailments, high blood pressure, etc. Here are some solutions to lower your cholesterol levels instantly:

1. Many people believe that exercising regularly, eating the right diet with out saturated animal fats, diary and lard, they could get some final solutions to treat the high cholesterol levels. Well, going through these foods’ lipid sources shows that they can not create any instant suspension of the unwanted elements of the body. Though they make no side effects on various cardiovascular diseases & disorders in the artheroma degeneration related to arterial walls.

2. To instantly decrease the rising cholesterol level in blood, ‘statins’ are considered quite effective. It is considered to be an effective medication, state the very reliable Medical Groups.

CRESTOR (rosuvastatin calcium) is the statin – this medicine puts a halt on the very high bad cholesterol levels. It reduces them by 52% with a 10mg dosage, as compared to 7 mg placebo. Crestor increases HDL cholesterol or the good cholesterol by 14%, versus 3% up HDL cholesterol of the placebo.

It works both the ways, reducing LDL cholesterol, and increasing HDL cholesterol. So it?s a real significant pro-life saving drug.

You must inform your licensed physician regarding the factors given below in order to undergo an effective treatment. At the same time, some of these factors he would come to know all by himself during the examination:

i. liver & kidney problems

ii. Pregnancy among women

iii. Excessive or normal drinking – liver is highly affected by alcohol

iv. Family history – the high cholesterol cases

v. Your current position of the problems like thyroid functions, diabetes and hypothyroidism

vi. Any recent incidents of heart and/or hypertension attack

vii. Other disease that are not pertaining to the problem of high cholesterol

viii. The Chinese and/or Japanese ancestry

ix. Consumption of the counter medicines that are antacids

x. All your other prescriptions.

The side effects of crestor are as follows:

i. Constipation

ii. Muscle aches

iii. Abdominal pain

iv. Weakness

v. Nausea.

Though these are all quite mild symptoms and all go away with time.

The patients in such cases must take care that they minimize their intake of fatty unsaturated substances. In this regard here are some important points:

i. Cooking in olive oil is the best for such patients as it reduces the fatty unsaturated acids to a great extent.

ii. A report made by Dr. P. Rethinam & Mohartuyo from Asian and Pacific Coconut Community Press that was quoted in the Jakarta Post on June 18, 2003, confirms that coconut oil is best among all the other vegetable oils present on hand like corn, sunflower, soy, rapeseed, cottonseed, palm kernel, etc. Coconut oil they say is the best medium to control bad cholesterol in the body.
