Interesting recipe 9ws, but if you really want to cheat and get a good cholesterol result you would do better by avoiding pigging out on carbs for two-three weeks before the test, chocolate cake is supposed to be especially bad. No emptying the bar when you walk in either because you stink.

Ah, it has to be in a tea mug, might just work then

The walking advice is good .

Spaceman, how old are you, height/weight, body fat if you know it, any other diseases, any cardiovascular deaths in your close family, and what is this inherited cholesterol figure you talk of? Have you had your lipid profile done - that's your HDL and LDL (good and bad) cholesterol numbers, and triglycerides.

By the way, I\'m not asking this to give you targetted medical advice, only somebody who has seen you can do that. Just pointing out what is relevant when working out how you can try to keep yourself healthy, and the sorts of things you might be asked about or need to know about.
