dendrite Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 There isn't as much correlation as you think. A better question is what is your total/hdl ratio.The big factors in heart disease are high LDL-particles and triglycerides. Your LDL-cholesterol can be high, but if your LDL-P and trigs are low, new research has shown you're not at high risk. Unfortunately most doctors only check LDL-C and not LDL-P. Usually they're positively correlated, but not always.I just had a lipid panel done yesterday. LDL-C 98 HDL-C 61 Trigs 44 Not bad considering conventional wisdom would cringe at my diet. I've been eating a lot of grass fed butter and beef, pastured pork and whole eggs, whole raw milk and cream, spoonfuls of coconut oil with dark chocolate, and occasional whole milk cheese. Of course I get plenty of fruits and veggies and eat a lot of sardines and shellfish too. I cut out the junk, grains, and gluten and don't miss it at all.

Dan Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 How is your cholesterol? This on the other hand, was probably really bad for me....but man was it good. The Heart Attack BLT at Crown Candy in St. Louis. 1 pound of fried bacon. If anyone watched Man Vs Food...Crown Candy was the place he did the Malt challenge...5 Malts in 30 minutes...he didn't finish it and ended up running to the bathroom sick.

weathafella Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Damn...I wanna get stuck in Amsterdam. Our daughter's having the time of her life with new friends and being put up in a very nice hotel. I speak to her via viber and she certainly seems capable of maneuvering around a major European capital. I'm going to extract a promise that she doesn't visit a pot den...lol.

weathafella Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 I eat whatever the hell I want. And I should add I'm approaching 70. High blood pressure for 25 years well controlled with medicine but no other diseases or issues other than aches and pains in cold wx. I find my body wants me to eat healthy but varied. Red meat about once a week, lots of fish, beans, yogurt, cheese, greens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#NoPoles Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 i pretty much cut sugar and flower out of my diet...i get the pasta/doritos cravings every now and then...im not perfect, when i go to a restaurant i get diet soda, and i have one cup of coffee a day and i use half and half...but i literally pretty much stopped drinking juices and sodas in 2005 when i discovered seltzer water... i eat a lot of chicken, eggs, cheese, and almonds, and occasionally steak...i blend a protein powder with my morning coffee... cutting the flour and sugar out, i have less puffiness in my face and my skin is better... and every so often i fall off the wagon and i gain back any weight i lost, and then i have to start all over again...lol, it is what it is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moneypitmike Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 The sky's a little threatening. Temp not too bad though all things considered. Truck read 79* at the top of Patten Hill and 82 down here in the lowlands (81.1 on the Davis, down from 84.3 now that the heavy clouds have moved in). Edit: We thunder.

CapturedNature Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 I eat whatever the hell I want. Me too....I still have a total cholesterol under 130. The last time I was on a no fat diet it went under 100 so I stopped that. It's mostly genetics that determines what level your body will have. If it were just what you ate, mine would be through the roof and other people that eat like birds would have my cholesterol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 So right now is a darn near perfect example of the differences between ASOS and PWS. Not to start this again, but for all those in the "not representative of where people live" camp, it may just be different sensors. MVL ASOS is showing 86/59 right now....while a similarly sited PWS is showing 81/69. This is the ASOS location, so none of this tarmac stuff where its a drier airmass for the baggage handlers (lol), it sits on grass near large open areas of lawn (where people live). My local PWS is showing 81/69. This is also in an open area (none of this in the trees where people live), as Stowe's lower elevations in town are generally fairly wide open. So what we have is a dew point of 59F at the ASOS (over grass), with a temperature of 86F. Meanwhile, a Davis Pro 2 station at a similar elevation, also in an open area, is showing a temperature 5 degrees lower than the ASOS, but with a dew that is 10 degrees higher. So depending on the station I am using, with very similar surrounding features, I could be enjoying a humid day of 81F...or I could be enjoying a drier day with a temperature of 86F. And it has nothing to do with tarmacs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whineminster Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Seems like a lot of people are cutting flour/wheat out of their diet on this forum.... My girlfriend has celiac disease, so there's very little wheat in my house except for when I grill on occasion....hard to eat a burger or dog without a real bun....and of course I couldn't give up beers it's been a bit tough, we have separate silverware and plates now, and I can't leave crumbs all over the counter, but you get used to it. You have to be careful though....a lot of the gluten-free pastas and such are just corn based...which can't be much better for you than wheat based pasta.

I'm interested to see how those SHT75/SHT15 sensors fair vs the SHT11s too wrt RH. I attempted the soldering this weekend, but I really need a new tip to do that fine soldering. What I really need is someone who is actually good at soldering boards/small wires/pins. What's that station PF? Sometimes the dews get a little jumpy with light winds in the summer so it could've just been a brief spike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it just stands out to me as like a well-mixed atmosphere at 86/59 vs. a less mixed one at 81/69. But that's a big difference for relatively similar locations, just with different equipment. It fits the stereotype ASOS vs. PWS though...but can't blame that on the MVL airport, lol. Do you find that you run warmer than LCI in dews, even though it may be close are you consistently a little higher than them? LCI is another spot I can't imagine one could pin lower dews on tarmacs and any airport development. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
