High Cholesterol (Dyslipidaemia)

Constitutional homoeopathic care for elevated lipids — improving hepatic metabolism, reducing oxidative LDL and addressing insulin resistance link for cardiovascular risk reduction.

Understanding High Cholesterol

Dyslipidaemia: elevated LDL-C, low HDL-C, high triglycerides — atherogenic triad. Primary (genetic): familial hypercholesterolaemia (LDLR, APOB, PCSK9), familial combined hyperlipidaemia, polygenic. Secondary: insulin resistance/T2D, obesity, hypothyroidism, nephrotic syndrome, liver disease, alcohol, medications (beta-blockers, thiazides, retinoids, protease inhibitors). LDL-C drives atherosclerosis — endothelial retention, oxidation, foam cell formation, plaque progression. HDL-C: reverse cholesterol transport, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant. Targets: LDL-C <1.8 (very high risk), <2.6 (high risk), <3.0 (moderate) mmol/L per ESC/EAS.

Homoeopathy treats the constitutional metabolic-lipid terrain — remedies selected by lipid pattern (LDL-dominant, TG-dominant, mixed), body habitus (central obesity, xanthelasma, corneal arcus, tendon xanthomas), cravings (fats, sweets, alcohol), modalities, family history and miasmatic sycotic/gouty tendency. Treatment improves hepatic LDL receptor expression, reduces HMG-CoA reductase activity, enhances lipoprotein lipase (TG clearance), reduces LDL oxidation (ox-LDL) and addresses insulin resistance — the common driver. Complements statins/ezetimibe/PCSK9 inhibitors — may allow dose reduction. Lifestyle (Mediterranean, plant sterols, omega-3, exercise, weight) is non-negotiable.

How Homoeopathy Helps

  • • Improves hepatic LDL receptor recycling and clearance
  • • Reduces HMG-CoA reductase activity and VLDL secretion
  • • Enhances lipoprotein lipase — lowers triglycerides
  • • Reduces LDL oxidation (ox-LDL) and endothelial uptake
  • • Addresses insulin resistance — common driver of atherogenic dyslipidaemia
  • • May allow statin dose reduction under cardiologist guidance

Common Presentations Treated

  • Familial hypercholesterolaemia (heterozygous)
  • Polygenic hypercholesterolaemia
  • Atherogenic dyslipidaemia (high TG, low HDL, sdLDL)
  • Insulin resistance / metabolic syndrome dyslipidaemia
  • Hypothyroidism / nephrotic secondary dyslipidaemia
  • Statin-intolerant patients (adjunct)
  • Consultation Process

    1. 01 Fasting lipid profile: total, LDL-C, HDL-C, TG, non-HDL, apoB, apoA1, Lp(a)
    2. 02 Cardiovascular risk: SCORE2, ASCVD, CAC score, carotid IMT, family history
    3. 03 Secondary exclusion: TSH, HbA1c, LFT, RFT, urine protein, medication review
    4. 04 Constitutional remedy + Mediterranean diet, plant sterols 2g, omega-3, exercise
    5. 05 Follow-up 3 months: lipid trend, apoB/non-HDL, statin tolerance, risk recalculation

    When to Seek Care

    LDL-C >4.9 mmol/L (possible FH) — genetic testing, cascade screening. Xanthomas, corneal arcus <45 years. ASCVD event (MI, stroke, PAD) — very high risk, LDL-C target <1.4 mmol/L. Statin intolerance (myopathy, hepatotoxicity, new-onset diabetes) — ezetimibe, bempedoic acid, PCSK9 inhibitor options. Homoeopathy complements — never replaces statin in very high/high risk without cardiologist agreement.

    Essential: Lifestyle + medication per guidelines. Homoeopathy supports metabolic terrain and statin tolerance.
