"When the National Cholesterol Education Program lowered the “optimal” cholesterol levels in 2004, eight out of nine people on the panel had financial ties to the pharmaceutical industry." From the book: The Great Cholesterol Myth

‘____________to get more people on statins.’

This thread has lots of good info - we all have our favorite supplements and things we’ve tried, in the ‘natural’ world, before ingesting prescription drugs.

Recently, I thought if one could take just one supplement, or were to ask me, I would suggest Cod Liver Oil, with Lemon. Daily.
I can crave that stuff, which in itself may be a sign of the body needing/lacking something . . . off for some right now!
