I honestly don't know Bizi. I think anytime that someone's cholesterol levels are off, their doctor recommends a diet change, but you're already a pretty healthy eater. You are going to see the naturopathic doctor, so I think that's something you can discuss with him.
I just had my cholesterol checked (for the first time), too…
Total: 170 (125-200mg/dL)
HDL: 60 (> OR = 46 mg/dL)
LDL: 95 (<130 mg/dL) (calc)
Triglycerides: 74 (< 150 mg/dL)
Ratio Chol/HDL: 2.8 (< OR = 5.0)(calc)
Non-HDL cholesterol: 110 (!59 mg/dL… target is 30mg/dL higher than LDL cholesterol target, whatever that means)
