Raising HDL

[Marky Boy]

Got my bloods done. Everything is fine except low HDL.

Anyone else have or had this?

What is a good way to improve this?

Quite happy about everything else as Iv been cruising for the past 2 months.

I don't think we've ever had a discussion on raising HDL




it's a good thing you brought it up, way past time IMO.

Ok fine that was a mean post and my guilt set in.

Citrus bergamot, Krill oil, and GW501516/Cardarine (prob the most effective)

I have just finished my labs for a 45 day run of bergamont... my total went up 14 points to 238 and my hdl went down 12, ldl up 19. I will try another brand but my labs say this ain't working.... Keep in mind running tren at 350 during the test but tren was the same for both labs..

 

[Marky Boy]

Thanks will look into those things mentioned

wait.. so you're saying that tren worsened your lipid profile?



are you sure it's the tren?

Thank you for always making me laugh ! :headbang:

I think its because he changed toothpaste...

 

[Swifto]

I'd be interested in people who have used Tamoxifen (Nolvadex) to raise HDL and/or lower LDL.

I am very anal about getting labs done and Tren will definitely drop my HDL usually into the low-mid 20's. Usually on a blast without Tren I can keep HDL in the mid 30's.

Although I didn't have base levels to compare, years ago I got tested while on TRT and Raloxifene.

lipid profile was perfect. I assume Raloxifene helped with numbers according to what I have read about that drug.

fuck all the fancy supps, just MOVE more.
do cardio.
stop using your car for one mile rides.
use your feet more.

while my LDL and triglycerides were never affected by heavy blasts, tren has managed to drop my HDL into the single digits a year ago...

ive tripled my (admittedly still low, but not dangerously low) HDL while simultaneously being on tren for 9 out of the last 12 months by simply doing more cardio and walking at least 10km a day. dropped all HDL-supps too (except fish oil).
niacin, curcumin, naringenin never did jackshit for me.
cardio is the best thing you can do. blood pressure will thank you too.

I wouldn't bother with niacin, prescription or not.

well, im aware of the "niacin increases HDL but doesnt lower heart disease risk" theory and there might be some truth behind it (theres more to cardiovascular disease risk than a low HDL), however that study is not reliable (and most of them arent) since it only compares niacin+statins to statins alone, not niacin to placebo... there might be some interactions between niacin and statins, and as it has been discussed here thoroughly statins have a myriad of side effects on their own and are not worth taking at all...
