High Triglycerides
Posted: 10-04-06 13:52pm

I am currently taking pravastatin for cholesterol. It's not quite doing the job for triglycerides (216). My doctor wants to add lopid to get the triglycerides under 200. I've read that this is not a good combination. Is there another combination that would work better?

Switch to a low carb diet and your triglycerides will fall like a stone as will your ldl and your hdl will rise. Statins are incredibly dangerous drugs and if you switch to a low carb diet you will not need to take any at all.

Moderator: can something not be done about these advertisements particularly as most of his information re cholesterol is wrong, I thought it was against the forum rules.

i would suggest don't take too much statins. They don't do good. Use co enzyme q 10 alongwith your cholesterol reducing statin pills. Try natural forms of co q 10... Especially herbal sources.
Search herbal tea for heart and cholesterol at google...You will find one.. - .
It is a good one. You can try it. ?
