Others feel that saturated fats are not harmful. Interesting info. I made a choice maybe 2 decades ago, nothing to do with genes, to use liquid fats/oils in cooking and on foods, even potatoes. I just felt eating solid fat equated to clogged arteries rightly or wrongly. I have the occasional butter...

… the perfect diet … Tex, you remind me of my friends over on the atrial fibrillation forum. People new to that keep looking for the triggers. And for most there really is nothing clear as to why they "got" this. A handful of things seem to make one at risk - and those in extreme sports s...

New to site -- flustered, eager, still processing the news. Punch, I'm 3/4, female, age 71.5. I believe in life style as risk is not something set in stone. I've read in the past how there is a tie of cholesterol with brain dementia, heart disease, and similar. My diet for recent decades changed qu...

My B12 level is 925, but my FMD says it's OK to take that high a dose as I'm compound heterozygous for MTHFR. My homocysteine is at 9.1 and we want to lower it to 7. Roxanne, I appreciate what your doctor is doing. It does not sound like there is a high level B-12 issue from supplements or food. I ...
