There are 2 types of cholesterol:
Low density lipoproteins or LDL which is the bad cholesterol.
High density lipoproteins HDL which is the good cholesterol.
LDLs are responsible for plaque buildup in the arteries and this blocks blood flow to major organs. It is the number one cause of heart disease.
Some non-medical ways to help with cholesterol are;
1. Eat Garlic, it lowers LDL cholesterol levels by 12% and increases HDLs, you can also take a garlic supplement, follow the directions on the label.
2. Niacin is helpful in lowering cholesterol. However, inositol hexaniacinate is a better and safer form of niacin. Inositol hexaniacinate is composed of one molecule of inositol and six molecules of niacin. Inositol hexaniacinate has been used in Europe for over thirty years to lower cholesterol levels. Inositol hexaniacinate yields slightly better results than standard niacin and is better tolerated because it is flush free and doesn't have any long-term side effects on the liver or blood sugar control.
3. Chromium is very important in the synthesis of cholesterol, fats and protein. Chromium keeps blood sugar levels stable through proper insulin utilization. This can be helpful for people with hypoglycemia and diabetes. Studies have shown that low plasma chromium levels can be an indication of coronary artery disease. If you take 400 mcg. a day of chromium picolinate this will improve your HDL to LDL ratio.
4. Taking vitamin C with bioflavonoids at 4000 mg. per day will lower cholesterol.
5. Ginger reduces cholesterol and thins the blood which can improve circulation
6. Guggul reduces LDL by 35% increases HDL by 20 % in 12 weeks, prevents arteriosclerosis. It performs better then many drugs in several studies.
