My 9 year old daughter went for an annual checkup ( I don't think that's necessary, but that is another story). They said she had high cholesterol because it was 180. First of all, when did anyone monitor the cholesterol of 9 year olds? Second, that would be quite good for any adult.

She is skinny as a rail and quite active. She doesn't even like cholesterol containing foods much.

They acted like she was at death's door.

Don't sweat it.

It will be recorded in the national database and CPS will be monitoring your situation in case her cholesterol levels spike past normal again. Further breaches of your child's societal rights will be considered grounds for removal.

Consider that your warning.

Sounds like you need to find a new doctor who has a foot in reality.

Well, they told my wife that she shouldn't have food after 6 PM. I tried to tell my wife that if she is hungry, let her eat. It's hardly like my daughter is a food addict. My daughter always gets the foods she needs and never even shows any signs of overeating. It's like these doctors get their training from the discount bin at Barnes and Nobles.

Obama has played at being a president while enjoying the perks … golf, insanely expensive vacations at tax-payer expense. He has ignored the responsibilities of the job; no plans, no budgets, no alternatives … just finger pointing; making him a complete failure as a president

Avoid the statin drugs.
Statins have (bad) side effects - and THAT is going to
be the next step. The Doc is going to try to get your daughter
on statins. My dad informed me if it all - years ago. And I
spent over a decade arguing with my doctor about it.
Luckily, late last year, my doctor moved to a different state!
Read up on statins. Get informed. And steer clear of them!
Just my non-professional advice!

Dr. Weiner checked out - Dr. Bradley checked in!

Your dad wuz right!

Except it isn't the doctor who wants to put kids on statin drugs, it's Big Pharma. They think pills make everything nicer.

They Do!

But after they kill you - things are not as nice.

If the doctor didn't discuss with you the ratio of good-to-bad cholesterol then you may be right. But if he did I would reconsider who you think r dumb.

Conventional medicine says under 200 is good, but I think also says the ratio is more important, so maybe they see the ratio as out of sync.

That's what conventional medicine says.

But it also says that the vast majority of cholesterol is manufactured by the body, not assimilated via foods.

Cholesterol is an important ingredient in human physiology. Our brains are made of it, in fact.

An alternate school in the subject says that heart disease is not caused by cholesterol, but rather excess sugar. The buildup of cholesterol on arterial walls occurs because sugar damages the walls, and the body responds by packing cholesterol on top of it to act as a band-aid. Doctors subscribing to this are not even bothering to have their cholesterol checked, considering the values meaningless. This would possibly explain why some regions have significant portions of their population with very high cholesterol readings but also very little heart disease.

Back to your daughter.... at 9 years old, she should eat however often she's inclined to, provided food is healthy. Which is actually my advice to anyone at any age.

Thank you, she did when she was 9. Now at 40, and a surgeon, she is making sure that my grandkids are doing the same.

"But it also says that the vast majority of cholesterol is manufactured by the body, not assimilated via foods."

This apperas to be the case. I amsure diet can help at the margins but is not sufficient by itself to achieve a healthy balance of "good and bad" cholesterol.

More likely they get a major in Liberal Arts and a minor in something unimportant like practicing medicine.

You can eat bacon and cheesecake, and drink beer all day long while sitting on the sofa watching game show reruns. If you take several niacin supplement capsules every day, you HDL to LDL ratio will be above normal. I'm not sure how healthy you will be, though.

Back to my original point. Worrying about a 180 cholesterol level in a perfectly healthy 9 year old is asinine.

I am a type 2 diabetic, and this myriad of pills - and
insulin - quite frankly, I don't think that they 'help'
me as much as they are purported to.

Sure - If I stop taking these things - I have my doubts
as to whether I will drop dead. I could always try I guess.
