Re: Cholestorol and heart disease.

It’s horses for courses isn’t it. I’m the opposite, felt much better after cutting out meat. Less lethargic and my digestion’s better. Exactly, my sister survives on salads and fish but I’d need to eat 6 big meals a day to be able to do my job. Plus I put on a huge amount of weight and look puffy. ...

Re: Harry’s Garage

I looked at a couple in 2005 when I bought my E46 M3 for £17,500. £15k would have bought a decent C2 and £25k would have bought an RS ☹️ They all leaked oil and few had air conditioning so never going to be as usable daily! I’m pretty sure they were cheap at the time as they lacked oil like mad and...

Re: Cholestorol and heart disease.

That's odd. Are there any specific vegetables that make them worse? Anything else that triggers the joint pains? Is it all joints or just certain joints? And is it joints or more muscle aches? Some veg contain solenins (spelling?) which has a weak link to inflammatory arthritis (in rat work, I don'...

Re: Cholestorol and heart disease.

The carnivore diet is an odd one, the carnivore side and the lion side are very different and the amounts you eat seem to be very different too. Mrs Granite is now 5 months into a pure carnivore diet, feels better than ever and doing great. She can cheat by having chicken etc but I couldn’t cheat a...

On the same subject, can we have a chat about laser-intensity backlights on bikes in busy urban areas? Great for being seen, whilst being utterly retina-melting when cycling behind them. Can we add any cunt who runs with a chest or head torch mounted light. A simple low lumen head torch will do, as...

Re: Cholestorol and heart disease.

Thanks for the reply 😎

So lots of cholestorol isn’t necessarily bad on its own if the ratio is right ?

If anything there is too much information about and it’s proving hard to understand it all.

Re: Cholestorol and heart disease.

1. Statins reduce mortality on a population level by reducing individual risk. Will a statin stop you personally dying of a heart attack or stroke, I can't say, but will it stop a chunk of the population taking them dying, absolutely. 2. In the UK, unless your cholesterol is very high, we use Qrisk...

Re: Cholestorol and heart disease.

I have a lot of salt but no sugar when home, I struggle to keep away from it when away as choices are either salads which I hate or meat cooked in oil and covered in stuff.

Re: Cholestorol and heart disease.

My wife’s was 8.2, she is fitter and healthier than ever before and the cardiologist isn’t worried about her level due to her diet. I think when consuming a lot of fat you get high readings but I’d need to double check that was what he said. Inflammation seems to be the big heart disease problem fro...

Re: Your fleet running reports

I use a HSS centre point but when I need to start a hole in something important. It only let me down when trying to drill out the studs in the TT Cats as they were the hardest thing I’ve ever had to drill. We even set it up on a mill and it was chirruping like crazy as the bit was just skipping over...
