Ketogenic diet - LDL-C, apoB and risk of CVD
I'm wondering about high fat diet and LDL-C and apoB. The context of my question is this study https://cardiab.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12933-020-01178-2 where the results indicate even though bloodmarkers change reflecting higher LDL-C and apoB there results do not indicate adverse impact on risk of CVD.
Statins and muscle pain side effect: are there alternatives?
I have high LDL. Probably familial. I’m waiting for DNA results. lp(a) = 200. All other values are great. I don’t have diabetes. Under your influence I agreed to start Crestor 10mg. It decreased my LDL from 216 to 84. After 2 months from starting it, I got pain in my legs. I don’t think I’d like to experience it my whole life. So the question is are there safe alternatives?
Evidence about EMF exposure and health
EMF exposure is a controversial issue. Physicists and engineers show that radiation is everywhere and the frequencies of the EMF (electromagnetic frequencies) that some worry about are well below the ionizing radiation frequencies of X-rays and gamma rays. Ionizing radiation is well known to cause DNA damage and lead to cancers. The general public and some doctors say that EMFs (in the non-ionizing frequency range of short radio waves to microwaves - much lower energy than even visible light) such as WiFi, Bluetooth, 5G communications, etc, can cause health issues. To my knowledge, there has never been a study showing that non-ionizing radiation can cause negative health effects. Is there any convincing evidence that you've seen linking non-ionizing radiation to negative health outcomes? If so, what is the causal mechanism? Thank you.
