Lower Cholesterol

Most people think that the cause of high cholesterol is due to the high intake of food diets that is high in cholesterol but statistics has shown that 70-80% of a person having high cholesterol is due to his or her own liver production of cholesterol and only the remaining 20-30% is coming mainly from the food. If a person is controlling his or her diet, they are only controlling 20-30% of the cholesterol problems.

Therefore, it is of great importance to address cholesterol in a combined manner and not just using the normal cholesterol lowering drugs to lower bad cholesterol. In fact, in one of the blog, there is an audio recording of a doctor who mentioned about combination therapy to address:

• LDL Cholesterol
• HDL Cholesterol
• Triglycerides

According to the audio recording of the doctor, the cholesterol lowering statin drugs only uses a mono therapy and that is to lower bad cholesterol.

There has been statistics showing that 1 in 3 will die from cardiovascular disease and with such an alarming rate of statistics, all of us should start doing our due diligence to find alternative to address total cholesterol concerns.
