Cure for High Cholestrol

a creature of comfort, budget conscious, into trying new things, practical, I believe in honesty, too busy to be tired or sick, one who prefers not to take medication, value conscious

Again as a BZZAgent I got the chance to try out a much advertised cure for high cholesterol. A 4 pack of 2 oz bottles of yogurt & fruit teamed with plant sterols that are a great cure for high cholesterol. Problem is the 4 pack at Giant Eagle is $3.79 & at Wal-Mart IS $3.19 so for over $.70 - $.90 a bottle that is 2 days worth. So for 2 weeks I spent $28 to see if it really did anything. SO for 2 weeks I drank 2 bottles a day (12 hours apart). Had bloodwork done for my monthly test at Kaiser & was told I was DOWN 8 POINTS!

Now my doctor has me on Centrum Cardio for 2 weeks, taking 2 pills a day for 2 weeks & again another blood test. So check for this result in the review I will write.

My honest opinion is that it is too expensive when Centrum Cardio is $.10 a pill if you buy it a BJs (180 pills for $18.00). My prescription is cheaper also.

I drank 1 drink a day and I take red yeast rice and for one month and my HDL went from 69 to 89 which was high to begin with and my LDL was high at 140 and down now l30. Yes that only dropped a small amount but being that the HDL is so high my doctor stated that I don't need any medication for the cholesterol and to stay on the promise shots and the red yeast rice. I would rather do that then the meds. There are always coupons in the newspaper or on line for at least $1 off a carton so it brings the cost down. Still better than lipitor or other drugs with those awful side effects.

I took Centrum Cardio and it is cheaper, however, my joints ached and my chest felt tight. I would rather take these!

I just started taking Promise Activ Shots to lower my high LDL. Please write how your bloodwork results were after taking Centrum Cardio. It would be easier and cheaper than the Activ shots. Thanks.
