Number ONE culprits are grains, sugar and starches these trigger off insulin production that damages the walls of the arteries and the body then PRODUCES cholesterol to repair the damage. So the true trick to lowering cholesterol production is to lower the quick release carbs that are CAUSING THE PROBLEM!!! Omega 3's helps lower the free radicals (they also damage the walls) so it is helpful as well. but the main thing is to lower the carbs!!! Now the reason to take vit B's is the sugars and starches also lower them as well as the Omega 3's. But in either case lowering grains, sugar and starches are the way to solve a LOT of health problems not just cholesterol. It will also lower inflammation (often the cause of pain) so there is a lot of incentive if you are sick or want to be healthier to lower the grains (wheat being the worse of the grains by the way) Louise -----Original Message----- From: Simon [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, March 09, 2005 10:41 PM To: [email protected] Subject: CS>Vitamin C & Cholesterol I have been reading a lot lately about Vitamin C, has anyone on the list had any good results with high doses of Vitamin C helping to lower cholesterol
