    Oh my god!!!!! :noway:

    I can't believe that number is possible. :noway:

    You must consult a doctor and a nutrtionist.
    What do you guys eat? Or is his problem genetic? Is the rest of your families cholesterol so out of control?

    Please - It is very important that you follow closely with a physician for medical management. A number like that means your kids should be evaluated too.

    yes it runs in his family and this number does excist:cry: he is with his doc and gets his medication.
    we have to see how he will cope with it. .
    the fun part is that we don't eat actually really "bad "food. meat is almost out anyways.
    my nieces ,both underweight have high cholesterol ,too. but not this high.

    I agree he definitely needs to be monitored by a doctor. Some things that have been proven to lower cholesterol:

    # Flaxseed
    # Fruits
    # Garlic
    # Kidney Beans
    # Oatmeal
    # Soy Foods Like Tofu
    # Vegetables
    # White Beans

    Also WALKING is a good source of lowering bad cholesterol and raising good cholesterol. Maybe you can try making it a habit to go for a family walk every night.

    Try going to Sparkpeople it's probably www. Sparkpeople.com but the have different groups you can join in on with people with his problem . I go on there and joined a group called diabetics over 50 plus needs to loose 50lbs. The people in this group are all dealing with diabetes at my age and I am learning a lot from them on what they do for their diabetes. I am sure the would have a group for high cholesterol. At least check it out and see if they can help you. If you can't find it , let me know and I will look up the web site address again for you. And I will pray for him and your family:heart:

    Add avocadoes and fish to that list! Both have lots of unsaturated fats. Raise the HDL and lower the LDL!
