My question in reply #5 still holds true. "So where is your HDL Fat levels??"

Reply #8 "Do yourself a favor and ask your doc for omega 3 & 6, palmitic, nervoinc, stearic (fatty ) acids testing ...think you may be surprised by results. Are you in the bottom 20% of the population for these fats? Fats you need for thyroid and sex hormones, store vitamin D and myelin...gee isn't this what a lot of you have an issue with? GET TESTED! "

My info on fats go back about 1 1/2 years ago. Finally someone is looking at fats but the LDLs not the HDLs. You need testing here and B vitamins.

Thank you for sharing your information,

I've never gotten a fatty acid profile done, but I will see my naturopath next month and will have her do it. Is there any danger in taking too much? Should I just load up on them now or do you need ot keep a certaain ratio of one fat to another? If i take vit D at the same time I take flaxseed/pumpkin seed will that help, or does the fat have to be stored in the body already. I do take vet B 12 and sometimes a B complex pill. I"ve never had LDL and HDL checked either.

Maybe the studies will finally start an investigation of diet and fats. Swank may be able to finally rest easy.

I am TRYING to get a study on this. The blood work I have from my hubby and one other from another person on the board seem to indicate that body NOT making certain kinds of fats. Anywho... email me your phone number and I'll call you. I would get tested for a few things and then I have info on what things you eat that could raise some of the different fats. This is IF you are found, after testing, to be deficient under the supervision of a medical professional of which I am not...yet.

Best wishes,
