I've been dealing with constipation for the last 8 months and after some tests, my doctor said I have low levels of Vitamin B12 and D3. I've been taking injections for that, but also found out my bad cholesterol, the LDL, is a bit high. I've read up on ways to bring it down and a lot of places suggest regular walks. I also stumbled upon info that said Apple Cider Vinegar might help with high cholesterol. Could you let me know if it's okay for me to try Apple Cider Vinegar for reducing my LDL cholesterol?

I'm getting a bit worried about my brother's health. After a month of recovering from COVID, his LDH test shows a value of 282. I'm not sure if this is within the normal range. His CRP and D-Dimer results have come back normal, though. Should we be concerned about the LDH level, or is this something that can happen post-COVID?
