Did the symptoms: go away? If not, please see you doc. Diet accounts for 15-20 % of cholesterol lab values. We make most if it ourselves. There are very effective natural approaches using red yeast rice and/or good quality marine fish oil. You would need to see a natural doc or a nutritionist for details. Peace and good health.
