I started taking red rice yeast, a natural statin, about 7 years ago. Along with fish oil, and niacin.

My cholesterol dropped from 248 to 195, with a high ratio of HDL (good) to LDL (bad) cholesterol. It has been the same ever since.

Good show! What dietary changes did you make, if any? Am taking RYR now along with niacin and fish oil plus cinnamon and turmeric and some other vitamins.

Since I have had bad reactions to the 5 Statins I was prescribed, I now take Niacin (Niaspan) and Omega-3 (fish oil). I’ve actually had results that matched my best Statin results, and no side effects.
