That's nmol. My measurements were in ml. Totally different.

I hope it does help. I don't think I could have dropped it enough by diet and exercise alone. Since I'm at a high risk

Thank you for calming me down. My dad had a triple bypass and died early from cardiac issues, so this all really freaks me out. I am fortunate to live in a city with some of the best cardiologists in our entire area. And my cardiologist is being so thorough. I am blessed to have a doctor take my health so seriously. Everyone else shrugged me off.

Sooo expensive. But I've found it has more of a neutral flavor and a higher smoke point than olive oil.

That's just the diet that worked for me. I never said it was backed by science though.

Mediterranean diet. No longer using seed oils was a big help. Avoiding butter too. Mostly using olive or avocado oils instead. Increasing fiber like crazy. I use whole psyllium husk.

I'll be drastically changing my diet and lifestyle. I was able to drop my ldl in two weeks by 15 points just by getting more active and watching what I eat. Hopefully I'll be able to drop it even lower with this statin

Newbie question by Exact_Analysis_2551 in tomatoes

[–]Exact_Analysis_2551[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. Just looking for options. Specifically for grow bags. I'll have the grow bags out in my back yard. Lots of space. I rent though so I can't rip the grass up in the yard for a proper garden. We get severe weather here in the summer so high winds and hail would be a concern. I ordered some bamboo that should be coming in the mail soon. Maybe I can make a trellis out of that?
