Guess what! my Husband has high cholesterol too!

My husband is going to Saudi Arabia and had to pass a battery of tests- everything was fine but his cholesterol was around 238- he doesn't remember the other numbers- his doctor told him to exercise, lose weight, and drink a special orange juice with an additive in it and a special butter- trying to get those names- I said a doctor with morals- he didn't try to push statins down your throat!

The drink and spread probably contain a plant stenol, made from a pine tree extract, as in Benecol over here, and it probably works in the same way as a statin and with similar side effects. A friend of mine used it for years and had heart problems just like those due to low Q10, muscular problems, not blockage troubles.
