Thanks for all of the info! Realistically, I think it is probably true that fasting doesn't really have an effect on your cholesterol levels. Cholesterol is not like blood sugar which changes rapidly on a minute to minute basis. Instead it takes a lot longer (days) to see vast changes in cholesterol which is why there is no quick fix to get rid of atherosclerosis.

Thanks for this very good information. My cholestrol is checked every two years. Next time, I will have to
ask the doctor if I should fast and why...could be an interesting conversation.

Huh, this is so interesting! I never knew this!! Our clinic, I learned today, has a LDL goal of 70 mg/dl or less for our diabetics. I thought this was outrageous! Some studies show the lower the better and I was just blown away by this...I had no idea! Great post, girl!

Interesting post!! I find that so hard to believe, but research is research. The triglycerides wouldn't be accurate though, as those go up right after you eat.

Thank goodness! I don't remember my numbers exactly, but I had less than 200 total, three times as much HDL as LDL.
