Solaray Bergamot Advanced Formula, Cardiovascular Support Fruit Extract, Veg Cap (Btl-Plastic) 500mg, 60ct

I began taking this supplement after blood tests showed my total cholesterol was 244. Doctor suggested I begin taking statins, and I said “no thanks”. Three months after beginning Bergamot, my cholesterol is 210! (I also watch my diet. No more French fries, less red meat, cut down on cheese and other high fat foods, etc.) I eat lot’s of avocado and have oatmeal several times a week.

So far these are doing exactly what they are supposed to. My doctor told me I needed to lower my cholesterol and wanted to put me on medication. I refused. She then suggested Bergamot might be another avenue. Ive been using it for 6 months now and my last blood work showed a significant decrease in my cholesterol. This is without drastically changing my diet. I'll keep using them and see what happens in another 6 months.

Good price

I have been taking this for at least 3 months now and finally had a blood test to see if it's having any effects. my cholesterol over the years was pretty high over all due to heredity. I currently take a low dose of crestor that I've been on for about 3 years now, it dropped my 'bad' cholesterol dramatically and on the last 2 tests my cholesterol levels have stayed pretty flat. I got this and started taking one caplet in the morning w/some light food and then one in the evening usually with or after dinner. There's been some days here and there I forgot. I have not modified my diet and if anything it's probably worse than normal. This seems to have the following effects: my overall number is about the same however triglycerides are down 12 points, LDL is up 5, HDL is down 5, and CHOL/HDLC ratio is essentially the same. Seems like overall is this positive so I'm going to stay on for a while longer and see what happens. I have noticed that if I take it without food I do get a belly-ache after a while so I'll usually have a boiled egg at minimum. will update again at a later date. I hope this helps someone make a decision to try it or not.

good
