    Hello Emma.

    please, don't worry about your cholesterol. Mine has always been high and the gp put me on Statins. Horrible side effects.

    Look on youtube for the gp who has written the Pioppi diet. He explains all you need to know about cholesterol. good luck.

    Hi Emma,

    Your cholesterol is fine, please do not worry about it. If you listen to doctors everyone in the world should have the same cholesterol, blood pressure etc., which is ridiculous. Cholesterol goes up and down and is important for the body, 75% of cholesterol is made by the liver only 25% comes from food.

    Hi Emma - What Armelle and Jen have posted are absolutely true. Worry not. We are commodities, guinea pigs or collateral to the "health" industry, and no amount of money is enough for them.
