Alternative To Statin Drugs

Alternative to Statin Drugs

This is the routine that Joe and I use with great success. Start with his website for information www.drsinatra.com

Make 3 simple changes to your daily vitamin routine to help keep cholesterol at good levels. Fish Oils, Fiber and at least one support producst such as Cholesteroff, Policosenal or Garlic.

1). Fish Oil - Pharmaceutical grade -3000 mg daily.

I really like a product called Res-Q 1250 and LDL-X. I have friends that had very serious cholesterol levels, well over 300 and in 90 days were reduced to below 200 with elevated good cholesterol levels. I think if you have a serious problem I would go with these two products.

If you have a minor cholesterol problem or want to make sure you are maintaining good levels, Carlson Labs also makes a terrific pharmaceutical grade (so you don't burp it up) and this can be found at the health food store. If fish oil repeats on you, it is because it is not pharmaceutical grade, so use one of these I mentioned above.

Fiber - increase this by simply taking 2-3 fine ground phyllium capsules or even better Oat Beta Glucan fiber after lunch and dinner and then before you go to bed. There are other brands as well and Oat Beta Glucan from the health food store is terrific if diabetic or syndrom-X issues. Dr. Steven Holt has much information about this at his website www.naturesbenefit.com

Dr. Mercola (www.drmercola.com) suggest using an organic fiber product.

Support Products:

20 mg daily of Policosenal - which you can get at any health food store or Walgreens or Walmart in the vitamin section.

Cholesteroff - by Nature's Made, which is available at Walgreens, Target and health food stores is a terrific product and has the research behind it.

Kyolic Garlic has a series of products that are very beneficial to lowering cholesteral levels and can be found at heath food stores.

I like to order from www.puritan.com for great sales and quality. It's always 2 for 1 sale, but at times you can buy 2 and get 4 free!

Using whole grain breads and cereals, oatmeal, fruits and veggies will increase your fiber, but we do not always eat mindfully when we are busy or on the road. I keep a bottle of fiber in my purse, and even my friends, after a dinner, out reach out their hand and say "got any fiber on ya?"..I have them trained well!

NOTE: - keep this in mind....try to take your fish oil capsules away from the times that you take your fiber tablets because the fiber will absorb all the oils, good and bad, and take it right out the back door..so to speak. So I try to take my fish oil and Policosenal capsules in the AM after a breakfast (shake or food). That way it gets into your system and not pulled out by the fiber tablets you may use.
