Hi Hookie-do,

 

I recommend weighing the pros and cons with your physician to determine if medication or a diet to lower cholesterol is right for you.

 

Dr. Lundell has four good articles that discuss his view of statin meds which you may want to review - http://www.lisanelsonrd.com/lundell.html.

 

All the best,
