This board, especially the funny memes, has brought me such joy for the past 2 years. Last year my doctor confirmed I had high cholesterol (the bad cholesterol), it was over 5.0, and if I didn't reduce it, she would put prescribe statin. She told me to try Red Yeast Rice and then do blood test again in 3 months. I bought 6 bottles of red yeast rice plus (1200 mg per 2 tablets) and had 4 pills per day since February. Blood work done last week (I waited for 6 months to do the bloodwork, not 3 months), and confirmed today my cholesterol has dropped to 4.2.
I watch my calories (for few years, but still had high cholesterol last year), don't do much exercise, so I attribute the drop in cholesterol primarily to taking the red yeast rice 2x per day.
I'm posting this because I am amazed at the result and wanted to pass it on to others in case you are not aware of this very simple treatment.
Good luck! This may save your life, or life of family member. High cholesterol can lead to stroke or heart attack, so it is crucial to lower it if you can.
