Hiya Bobbie----

See what home remedies can do-----
I am glad it worked----
Sometimes,when I read these home remedies, I think the person who came up with this is nutz

I also read an article where peanut butter can lower cholesterol----well peanut butter here I come-


Have a good one---
luv Barbara

The honey and cinnamin is also good for lowering cholesterol according to that same article. The woman who told me about it said she lowered hers in 3 months by 60 points. Pretty good huh!

Hi Bobbie,

It's always good to hear from a friend across the pond! I am doing very well, thank you. I am surprised that you are having hot weather. How hot is it? I thought England was much more temperate than most of the U.S. I hope you were not hit by the storms. . How are you feeling these days?

Love,

Polly

Im not too bad, thanks for asking, i think last time we spoke i was having a problem with my son smoking pot, well finger's crossed since the trouble he had on the bus, with the two boy's and after i went out after them like a raving lunatic he seems to have been alright. I am still taking the Protium tablets for the acid reflux, i have tried not to take them but everything i eat criples me so now i just take them one in the morning and one at night, but i have found that they do help the D.... so that is good anyway. My gland on the right side of my throat is still swelling up like a golf ball though which is painful but i go back to the hospital in July so i will see what they say then. My G.P has said that i have got to have the operation for the carpole tunnel but im not in any rush to have that done as i can'nt afford to have the time off of work. So Polly if you hear of anyone selling a decent body cheep let me know. Well our weather has gone mad. it must be up in the nineties it is sweltering here, i am dreading the storm's whenever they are going to come i will probeble hide in a cuboard somewhere lol . BFN Love Bobbie

Hi Barbara,

Almond butter will lower cholesterol way faster than PB. I am the queen of PB so that was hard to say.

It is so ANNOYING to say the least that our doctors won't tell us these thing. I have been taking Lipitor and it really upsets my tummy. How much almond butter is enough?

Love,

Sally

[Polly]

OK, Sally. This doc will tell you about some other natural ways to reduce cholesterol:

1. Google the "portifolio" diet. It is all-natural and relies on foods with soluble fiber (as oppsed to the insoluble fiber that makes MC worse). It can lower cholesterol by 33%.

2. The butter-substitute spreads like Benecol have plant sterol esters that can lower the LDL (bad) cholesterol by 14%.

3. One of the best ways to raise the HDL (good) cholesterol is with regular exercise.

L and N,

Polly

Polly, I looked up the diet but lost interest soon as I read that it substitutes soy based products for meat.

Sorry I'm so stubborn.

Well instead of buying Peanut Butter I bought ICE CREAM/peanut butter!!
Think that will do the same??? I doubt it

Anyway---my cholesterol had better be down---
Every morning Lou and I walk---and walk---
I am gettting more and more luving it and my pace is picking up----I just got a bit concerned today cus Lou kinda developed a heavy breathing issues along the route but then it went away---

I know he isnt over doing but ya just get a little over anxious when this happens---but I didnt show it---- 'd about this and that----tried to look

Plus I do my regular Xercising @ home---so am hoping for a good *lipid* report--

And Lou is going for Cardiac Therapy----which will be of great help and maybe *tune* him up for his return to the gym---
I am a little leary about the gym----but I am sure he will use common sense and lift what he used to----
Who knows??? Maybe they will tell him to eliminate lottsa things he did there--

And I was mistaken----Kait wasnt taking SATS----she came home Monday and Tuesday ,@ home, with a tutor present, she took her REGENTS--
Took 5 hours cus half the time she fell to sleep
Am sure the tutor wasnt too happy with that----

Cant wait till Lou is totally well,this way we can get in the car and get away again~~~~~

Take care
keep a smile
luv Barbara
