All these questions correspond to the doubts and the various interrogations which were mine (the patient) during the first week of diet - without medicine - against cholesterol.

Question 1:

Is there risks on middle term or the short term with my current cholesterol? How can one can detect it?

Doctor answer: Of course, you run cardiovascular risks since your cholesterol tends to block your arteries. Unfortunately, there exists that few signs visible, in addition very inconstant, testifying to an excess of cholesterol, such of the yellow spots on the level of the eyelids or a pearly aspect of the circumference of the iris.

One can thus say that the only manner of discovering this anomaly is to undergo a blood analysis.

Question 2:

What is the difference between a diet to lose weight, say to lose approximately between six and ten kilos and the anti-cholesterol diet which I want to follow?

Doctor answer: At the beginning, the idea is the same. Should be avoided hidden fats. The difference between the two died is that if one wants to kill the cholesterol, it will be necessary to remove in more rich foods in cholesterol and first the egg yolk.

The hard-boiled egg, basic food of the reducing diets, very appreciated by mannequins IS FORMALLY PROHIBITED when one has cholesterol.

You will find a table in a previous article (the false friends of cholesterol within Put an end to the cholesterol Part III) indicating what paradoxically is fatal during an anti-cholesterol diet but without danger during a regular diet:

Question 3:

When one is an active person, there is no risk of an important fall of its energy when one follows an anti-cholesterol diet?

Doctor answer: Not at all, because the essential energy for your activities is mainly provided by sugars. It is necessary to distinguish slow sugars (rice, potatoes, paste) essential with a normal physical activity and fast sugars (pieces of sugar, dry fruits, certain fruits) which one will use during an effort or a specific sports activity.

You can find very good information about the sugar in one of my previous article with the tittle: An enemy not to be underestimated: sugar! with “Put and end to the cholesterol Part IV"

Question 4:

Wouldn't my anti-cholesterol diet be not easier with a medical aid, i.e. by taking medicines?

Doctor answer: In any way, you are quite able-bodied. It thus should be prevented taking some medicines which cannot act that within the framework of a preliminary died.

Many people believe that the medicines replace the died. It is not true at all. It is a medical absurdity = nonsense. To give an example among others, it is not because you take some medicines that you have the right to take a ‘bearnaise sauce’ to accompany a nice steak!

For info, the ‘bearnaise sauce’ is in France a very popular sauce accompanying with taste a piece of meat. This is as well another version for the fish with the ‘hollandaise sauce’. But the bearnaise sauce is quite a nightmare for an anti-cholesterol diet. This is reduction of white wine with shallot, black pepper and tarragon where melted butter is added!

Question 5:

How long will it be necessary for me to hope to find a normal cholesterol rate?

Doctor answer: In your case, you need at the minimum two till four months by following this diet in a good way and to check by a new blood test that your cholesterol is practically standardized.

Question 6:

Then no more need for a diet against the cholesterol?

Doctor answer: It would be the largest error which you can make, because very quickly with the stop of the died you will return very quickly to the starting box.

But I am not anxious because, after a few months, say 6 months, from this new feeding way you will feel in healthy form and you will have the proof that cholesterol for you is overcome. These elements will be a rather strong motivation so that you proceed in the good way.
