Understanding high cholesterol
What it is, and what we look at
Cholesterol is carried in the blood by lipoproteins. LDL cholesterol deposits in artery walls and drives atherosclerosis; HDL helps remove it. Raised triglycerides, common alongside insulin resistance and abdominal obesity, add further risk. None of this produces symptoms, which is precisely why it is under-treated — the first sign is often the cardiac event itself.
Treatment decisions are based on overall cardiovascular risk rather than the cholesterol number in isolation, taking in blood pressure, diabetes, smoking, family history and age. South Asians carry a higher baseline cardiovascular risk at any given level, which is worth knowing. Homeopathic care here is supportive, alongside the dietary and activity changes that carry the evidence.
Symptoms
You may recognise these
Causes & triggers
What tends to be behind it
- Diet high in saturated fat, trans fat and refined carbohydrate
- Physical inactivity and excess abdominal weight
- Genetic causes, including familial hypercholesterolaemia
- Type 2 diabetes, hypothyroidism and kidney disease
- Smoking and excessive alcohol intake
When to see a doctor promptly
Homeopathic treatment is not the right first step for these. Seek medical assessment if:
- There is chest pain or breathlessness on exertion — seek assessment promptly
- There is a family history of heart attack or stroke before age 55
- Cholesterol is very high, or triglycerides exceed 500 mg/dL
How we work
Our approach at the clinic
Individualised prescribing
Homeopathy selects a remedy for the person, not only the diagnosis. Two patients with the same condition often receive different remedies.
Detailed case taking
Your first visit covers medical history, family history, current medication, diet, sleep and stress — all of it informs the prescription.
Works alongside your doctor
We never ask you to stop prescribed medication on your own. Any change is made gradually and in consultation with your treating physician.

Common questions
Asked before the first visit
They lower LDL modestly for most people. Whether that is enough depends on your overall cardiovascular risk — for someone at high risk or with a genetic cause, diet alone is generally insufficient and medication is appropriate. That assessment should be done rather than assumed.

Bring your reports and current prescriptions. The first consultation is a full case assessment, and you will be told plainly if another specialist is the better route.
