Very interesting. I can't remember my exact numbers, but one year my bad cholesterol was at just a borderline level, and at the next measurement it had about doubled. I was aghast, and assuring my internist that I hadn't changed my diet, and certainly not to a solid menu of milkshakes!!

Keep eating that garlic--it's supposed to be real good for you. Its magical properties seem unbounded--by hubby used to rub it on his head regularly, claiming it kept his hair from falling out, until I FINALLY managed to convince him that I'd rather have a sexy bald guy than a stinky one with a few hairs on top of his head!! (The handsomest actor ever is Patrick Stewart, in my book.) I never stopped him from eating garlic, though, because I know it's so good for you.

Well, I'll keep my cloves, er, eyes peeled for any more info on demyelination and cholesterol!

Have a great weekend,

Nancy T.
