In general, proteins are water soluble. We have several proteins circulating in our blood. By the way, there's one type of proteins which is made for carrying cholesterol and tryglicerides (that obviously are fat soluble) through the circulation.

Fats are absorbed by entering the villi and then breaking down into a chemical compound or ester called chylo microns which are made fron lipoproteins(fats and proteins) and tryglicerides(compound of fatty acids and a glycerol molecule)

What is the average walking speed of a 72 yr old human?
All matters related to human health, are widely variable considering a lot of factors. When walking, the rule is dictaded by your heart and lungs, specially for people aged 50/60 years and more. After getting your cholesterol, tryglicerides and other blood substances balanced, do not worry about other people's walking rhythm. Everyone has a personal rhythm, and it would be almost impossible to give an average walking speed. Get enough potassium from the liquidized peel of bananas, one hour before the exercise, and go ahead. Text by JamesWest09 (not copyrighted)
How many types of lipids are present?
Phospholipids are classified according to alcohol they possess so they are classified into three categories: 1) Glycerophosphatides (Glycerol-alcohol based phospholipids): a) Phosphatidic acid (phosphate) (PA) b) phosphatidylcholine (lecithin) (PC) c) phosphatidylinositol (PI) & d) phosphatidylethanolamine (cephalin) (PE), 2)Phospho-inositides (inositol-alcohol based phospholipids): a) phosphatidylinositol phosphate (PIP) b) phosphatidylinositol bisphosphate (PIP2) & c) phosphatidylinositol triphosphate (PIP3), 3) Phospho-sphingosides (sphingol-alcohol based phospholipids): a) Ceramide phosphorylcholine (Sphingomyelin) (SPH) b) Ceramide phosphorylethanolamine (Sphingomyelin) & c) Ceramide phosphorylglycerol (Cer-PE).
How much garlic daily for how many days to lower cholesterol level from 200 to 160?
Garlic isn't that great. You would have to have massive amounts. The best way to lower cholesterol, is to cut way down on cheese, butter, eat low-fat yogurts, drink skimmed milk. A glass of red wine three or four times a week can help, and recent research has shown that a small handful of good quality nuts especially cashews, Brazil, almond, walnut, breaks down cholesterol if taken several times a week. ^^^No offense but the only part of it that is even remotely correct is that diet is a much bigger part o this equation than taking garlic. But the dietary guidlines above are the opposite of what you want to do. Hopefully this is a question I pulled up from 1985 and that is why that advice is there. There are MULTIPLE studies now showing the correlation of low fat/high carb diets and high cholesterol. Here are some guidlines that will have a dramatic impact on your cholesterol... 1. Cut the carbs...especially simple sugars. This is the #1 thing with #2 below closely behind. Soda, candy, cereals, juice, etc. etc. cut it the hell out. You can read the science behind it but it is factually true massive amounts of carbs (like most Americans eat) increases cholesterol. 2. Get your greens. Dark, leafy, greens. This will also have a large impact on your cholesterol. If you hate veggies get a legit powered greens mix. You can mix with a little O.J. if you can't stand the taste. 3. Get exercise. Lift and do cardio. You don't even have to do that much to have a positive effect. 4. Supplements- Fish Oil, Garlic, and NAC can have a significant effect. Do NOT be afraid of fat. But eat natural foods. I'm not saying you have to turn into a hippie and go to trader joes for all your meals I'm saying stop eating out so much and cook at home. I don't like getting into what I do personally because it skews the good answers. It should be what is scientifically based. So feel free to check out the new England journal of medicine as there are now plenty of studies showing dietary cholesterol and dietary fat has LITTLE to do with your bodies cholesterol level and risk of cardiac issues and that carbs are likely causing a much bigger issues. I'm a bodybuilder and eat a very strict diet. My current cholesterol is 160. HDL is through the roof and my tryglicerides are a picture of perfection. Blood pressure is 125/75. Current diet... meal 1 6 whole eggs 10 egg whites 1 apple meal 2 10 ounces 90/10 red meat 1 serving brown rice 1 serving broccoli meal 3 10 ounces grilled chicken 6 ounce sweet potatoe large green salad meal 4 Protein shake with "greens powder" 2 servings mac nut oil meal 5 10 ounces 90/10 red meat 1 serving oats meal 6 2 servings cottage cheese 2 servings peanut butter That is a crap load of fat, cholesterol, and saturated fat. In the past eating a low to no fat and cholesterol diet I could never get my cholesterol below 200. And as I said there is PLENTY of scientific literature to support this.
