My cholesterol is borderline but my doctor was threatening pills.
I have been drinking a cup of ginger tea [small piece of ginger in hot water]
each morning. After three months, including the holidays, my bad cholesterol was down 15 pts and my good cholesterol was up ! No more discussion of pills.

Lecithin is what the body uses to control cholesterol. You can get it in liquid, granules, or pills. Never mind the pills, it takes about 90 to get a normal dose! BTW, lecithin is also sold in spray cans, called "non-stick spray".

Garlic, garlic and more garlic.... works great for DH.

Doctor recommends eating a bowl of oatmeal every day. That was the extent of his dietary recommendations.

I read in a book by Dr. Duke "the Green Pharmacy" that Shiitaka mushrooms were good.

My Dr. recommended policosanol. Do a search, its interesting.
