Dear Dr. Jack, et al.,
My dear friend, who is breastfeeding her almost one year old, went in for a
physical and was found to have a high level of cholesterol (233). She is
going in for a follow-up to determine the HDL/LDL ratio. She would like to
go in well informed.
I've searched the Lactnet archives on this topic and remember reading
something about lactating women having "high" cholesterol levels, but I
haven't been able to find what are acceptable levels, or references that
she may share with her physcian.
Weaning is not an option. Adjustment of her diet is.
Thanks for letting me pick your brains.
