A member asked:
16years old, t cholestrol-370mgh/dl, tg-1.5, hdl 1.16, ldl 294, ratio 7.91..taking vytorin (ezetimibe and simvastatin) 10/20mg daily,can take one table spoon of flax seed also?

Sure: This s very serious. I wonder whether you have familial hypercholesterolemia. It kills people who use it, often at your age or a little later. Flax seed is unlikely to help more than a little bit. Best wishes.
