Six weeks ago my cholesterol was 344 and my DR wanted to put me on statins. With the help of this board, I found out about red yeast rice and my cholesterol has dropped to 253. All of my other numbers and triglcericides have improved as well.
I am very relieved because my DR was VERY adament about me taking these drugs and I was equally adament about not taking a drug whose side effects are my primary health issues...ie fatigue, malaise and joint pain.
Why dont DRs know this?????
