Statins?
My cholesterol is also borderline, hereditary, diet and exercise help but don't do the full monty for me.
My son is 12 and has had high cholesterol for 4-5 years now. Kid is a rail, 0% body fat and eats healthy. We don't allow soda or any other junk in the house. He'll snack on carrots before chips because he wants to not because we make him.
I was on statins for a bit and declined continuing because they were physically wrecking me. For the 2 years I was on them I never felt worse.
