high fibre, 1-3g of a niacin, regular cardio, dropping red meat in place of chicken and fish, lots of veggies, limiting time on orals and keeping my e2 in check have all helped me keep my lipids in check even with a decent dose of gear. Obviously im a lot younger then you but even so, these things should definitely help. I think cardio is vastly underrated for health benefits
-
Spot on with with that Dbolish, not likin the niacin end of it, the rest of it is great, watch out for the lipitor had my creatnine levels at 9000 ! almost trashed my kidneys, crestor is nasty as well .

niacin can help, but yeh i think diet and cardio can sort out most issues. Also getting lean before you start a cycle helps a lot with no just cholesterol, but overall health markers in general
-
For me tren is notorious for mucking up my lipids and diet is key to ensure a good base BEFORE I cycle. I am currently very lean and just did a cycle, I was very surprised when I had my BP tested recently and I was at the higher end of the normal range - in the past it has been very high while on cycle.
-
Yeah, I'd say you got re-tested too early. 12 weeks after a cycle might be a good marker. That stuff wreaks havoc on lipid and triglyceride levels. (Mostly temporary if you cycle properly).
Then there's those like me, who naturally is very high (liver produces way too much) as a skinny 18 year old I tested at over 320 total. (Father died at age 47 of heart disease 30 years ago) so Dr. always monitored me.
Of course they just watched it for 22 years, and put my on Simvastatin at age 40 (8 years ago). Everythings good now, lowest dose works fine, I come in right under 200,my HDL is always very high, and more importantly, triglycerides are under the limit. (Used to be almost double).

you may want to look into beta sitosterol, plant sterols. that's a natural cholesterol decreaser. a lot of positive reviews.

I had high chol. and i have a family history. My CH was 262.
I started on a protocol of Fish Oil, Red Yeast Rice and this product called Cholestoff (wasnt cheap)
After I finished 2 months of this, my CH dropped to 190.
