Guest guest Posted February 4, 2008 Report Share Posted February 4, 2008 Hello, I was talking with a friend who is very concerned about her high cholesterol of over 300. I guess the good cholesterol is higher then the bad, but her doctor wants her on medicine right away. I don't know the exact numbers. She told me this news because we normally split a grass fed beef each spring and she is not sure about eating so much beef now. I have shared my Nourishing Traditions book with her, but she's not fully convinced about saturated fats. She was wondering what causes a heart attack if it's not caused by high cholesterol and I have no idea. Can someone explain to me in very simple language (I'm educated, but apparently not as well as most of you!) why people get heart attacks and why doctors think high cholesterol causes it? Thank you so much! Judy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
