Natural cholesterol : While dietary modification is the best and safest way to lower cholesterol naturally, other remedies may be helpful. Krill oil 3000mg daily has been shown to lower LDL raise HDL & lower triglycerides. Red yeast rice lowers ldl. Garlic, wheat grass & barley grass, have also been shown to lower cholesterol.

Cholesterol: One of my favorite herbs is red yeast rice extract. Typical dose is 600 mg 4 capsules a day. Quality varies tremendously so i always stick to the cholestene brand.
