			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p><img class="left off" style="margin-left: 5px; margin-right: 5px;" title="cholesterol-diagram" src="http://livingto150.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/cholesterol-diagram.jpg" alt="cholesterol-diagram" width="128" height="127" />The worst result coming back from my health tests at <em>Frontier Clinic</em> in Denver are that my LDL (&#8216;bad&#8217;) cholesterol is very high.</p>
<p>Just about everything else is ok; this is bad.</p>
<p>Exactly what to do about it I don&#8217;t know yet as I have not had my &#8216;post consultation&#8217; chat with Terry Grossman yet.</p>
<p>However, and this is a bit of a shock, I might end up taking a statin drug.</p>
<p>Two years ago I culd not have seen myself taking a <a href="http://www.technorati.com/tag/statin"  rel="tag">statin</a>. But with my LDL as high as it is &#8211; and it&#8217;s not due to my diet &#8211; I might just have to consider it.</p>
<p>I will do all I can to avoid that eventuality &#8211; mainly taking <a href="http://www.technorati.com/tag/niacin"  rel="tag">niacin</a> and <a href="http://www.technorati.com/tag/red+rice+yeast"  rel="tag">red rice yeast</a> &#8211; but with the level of LDL I have, that may not be enough.</p>
<p>I will learn more when I talk to Terry Grossman, and will report further.</p>
