Bad Cholesterol 239! Good only 44! Help

Any ideas for natural or prescription medications that you have taken and have worked to reduce your cholesterol?

I have an appointment next week with my doc to discuss meds.

My doc is really concerned because even with almost a 50 lbs loss my cholesterol has not moved more than 4 pts.

I watch everything I eat for hidden cholesterol and my numbers have been about the same for the last 10 years.:)

Thanks in advance!

Red Yeast Rice capsules! They were recommended by our doctor. They are natural, really inexpensive, and you can but them at Walmart, Sam's, or any nutrition store. Take 2 - 4 capsules per day - they worked for my husband and I both. You still have to eat sensibly Please make sure that you discuss them with your doctor.
