There was a lot of interest last time this was aired but I was left with
a few unanswered questions...
How significant is the fat in processed Pork slices as I find it a very
convenient source of sandwich filling?
How linear is the response to dose levels? A recent test found 4.2 total
(2.4 LDL) for a dose of 20mg. Pre-statins, I had levels of 6.8 and 7.2
total. I would like to drop the dose to 10mg.
If you are on Simvastatin, you could request a change to Atorvastatin,
which should be as effective at half the dose.
