Benefits of Phytosterols, Niacin, and Co-enzyme CQ10?!


Question: Benefits of Phytosterols, Niacin, and Co-enzyme CQ10!?
I am excited now!. I had gone to the doctor who wanted to put me on statins!. I am no friend of Lipitor or whatever because of the horrible side effects those drugs have!. So I went and bought me Co-enzyme CQ10,odor less garlic,vitamin C, Phytosterols, and Niacin!. I was pretty skeptical--I had a cholesterol value of 278, a slight heart problem, and my HDL cholesterol was only 32!. I faithfully took those supplements, and now I am excited!. MY cholesterol is down to 196, my HDL is up to 48(I still need 2 more points to be ok), my triglycerides are normal, my blood pressure has gone down to 110/68---all this with natural stuff!. As my doctor told me the Co-enzyme CQ10 is known to protect the heart!. So why don't more people get supplements instead of drugs!? The Phytosterols in particular work better than statins because my cholesterol levels had gone down by 72 points in 10 weeks!. And except for the phytosterols can you buy everything else cheap at walmart--is it because insurance companies don't pay for supplements or what!? Why do so many people keep on taking these drugs and damage their bodies rather than trying supplements!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Congratulations on your success!. Unfortunately your regimen, like one with statins doesn't always work for everybody!.

Statins, like ALL medications (natural or not), have side effects!. Most patients do fine!.

Besides lowering cholesterol, statins also seem to reduce inflammation within blood vessels, which also seems to play a role in heart disease!.

Again, congratulations!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
