I went off Lipitor 10 mg a day for a period of a month to see if my memory would get better with Alzheimer's.
I still have short term memory loss so it is very difficult to tell.
My non-HDL Cholesterol went up to 110 from 70.
My non-fasting triglycerides went up to 118 from 90 despite taking Nicotinic acid 1,000 mg a day and increasing my Lovaza (omega 3's) to 4,000 mg a day.
The next part of my experiment is to wait for my LDLp level to come back.
Then I will start Zetia instead of going back to Lipitor.
The above lab from 4-2-19 was after being off Niacin and Omega 3's.
I was on Lipitor (atorvastatin 10 mg)
This was after a 34 day Oceania cruise around Australia.
Non-HDL cholesterol was excellent at 70.
NON-fasting triglycerides were excellent at 90.
I have been on Atkins or Low carb high fat diet since 2011.
Usually I am in nutritional ketosis.
