WHAT ABOUT HIGH CHOLESTEROL?
By Alfred J. Plechner, D.V.M.
There are so many "modern day" suggestions for lowering cholesterol plus
improving the HDL-LDL ratio and improving the triglyceride level. We understand
increased exercise, weight lose, avoiding those foods that contain higher levels
of cholesterol, eating those foods that tend to lower cholesterol levels, plus
nutriceuticals that seem to help. All of these are very important and must be
considered worth doing.
Are there other ramifications that also might help? My studies have shown in
animals, that there are other considerations that need to be considered.
I have found in people and animals, that when there is a cortisone imbalance,
the pituitary stimulation causes an increase of total estrogen in male and
female patients from the inner layer of the adrenal cortex. This in turn binds
the use of thyroid hormone, and reduces the metabolism of the liver where
cholesterol utilization and breakdown occurs. Automatically you can see why
cholesterol levels may remain high, even after you have done everything that had
been recommended.
The test is often referred to as Plechner's Syndrome. The syndrome,
proper handling of the blood sample and the laboratory that is qualified to do
these tests are listed on this web site. I have no affiliation with this
laboratory. I use this lab due to its accuracy. Remember, when my syndrome is
occurring, the antibody production in the gut may be deficient, and disallow
absorption of any oral medication. If this is true, the only benefit you might
get out of ingesting products will be of much less value. This is why patients
in the hospital on IVs do well until they go home on the same oral medication
that cannot work due to this decreased antibody level. Please think about this.
What if your total estrogen is high, but normal? You may not suffer from high
cholesterol, but if you eat certain foods containing estrogen, you could be
putting yourself at risk. Please check my articles for NATURAL ESTROGEN THAT
OCCURS IN NUTRIENTS. Remember that plastics can contain a form of estrogen
called Zeno-estrogens. Have your water pipes been replaced with plastic pipes?
Do you drink well water? All the above can be checked for estrogen, including
municipal water that may contain estrogen, do to the flushing of medication down
the toilet, which may contain estrogen.
These are only my thoughts, but if my thoughts get you "thinking", then my
thoughts may be of value. We all speak about our changing environment, but this
might help you to measure the bad changes that may hurt you, your family and
your pet.
