[QUOTE="Mojave, post: 31781, member: 650"] Without question. If you are using steroids and or TRT or any other treatment that can effect your cholesterol, you must understand the truth and what is the difference. For instance. Did you know there is Good and Bad HDL? And Good and Bad LDL? In fact the whole good and bad Cholesterol is bogus. There are type A and Type B. There are a multitude of totally wrong medical directives that have guys on drugs they don't even need. The very word Steroid is derived from Cholesterol so it seems prescient to understand it. The four horseman of aging are Inflammation, Oxidation, Stress and Sugar. Cholesterol is not the enemy. Oxidized Cholesterol is definitely not good but what causes it to become oxidized and the inflammation that causes the Cholesterol to try and repair the inflamed cracked areas is the real problem. Don't waste your time worrying about Cholesterol until you understand this topic. This is a MUST READ for anyone dealing with blood work and getting beat up on LDL or HDL readings by the doctor. Armed with an understanding of the differences, Type A and Type B as well as the other factors such as the ratio of triglyceride to HDL is an excellent way of determining risk of heart disease. My ratio is just about 2 to 1. That is excellent. As you go higher you are more at risk. That would likely mean higher triglyceride and lower HDL. Keeping the triglyceride low and doing your best to keep your HDL up is the best strategy. If the HDL is low for instance because of Deca or the likes, then keeping the triglyceride low is imperative. I'm not a physician, I am simply paraphrasing from the book what I gleaned. I hope that makes sense and helps to uncover what this book offers. I wanted to mention, this book is available in audio format so those who are driving and can use the time during travel will benefit getting the reading while working. [/QUOTE]
