I guess I've found the one good thing about living on ensure and broth - my cholesterol my whole life was very high before PN in spite of very healthy living, eating healthy, staying thin, and super active lifestyle - the doc said it was heriditary (ran around 270). In last couple years has dropped to 150 - lowest in my life.... LDL high - but going down too...
I know in my family member's case who had high colesterol no matter what she ate and how much she exercised etc.... the docs could not get it down - even though super vigilant with diet, etc., supplements, etc... I think for some of us its truy a genetic issue
