Its not bad and definitely not bad enoguh to take medication. I am not a doctor but I am a natural health nut who has family with high cholesterol and I watch this stuff closely.Medication is an absolute last resort. What you will usually get is Lipitor and one your on that, its pretty much forever . its tailored that way.The best way to lower cholesterol is change your diet.. figure out what foods created it in the first place (chips, mashed potatoes and gravies, red meat, bacon ..its pretty obvious what does unless you just naturally produce cholesterol in your bloodstream) and eliminate them. A good routine is always eat a whole grain breakfast within 30 minutes of waking in the morning (even if you dont eat breakfast, its the most important meal and your cholesterol will lower just by doing that in most cases)as well drink 8 to 16 oz of water, clean fresh water, not tap. Then eat fibre througout the day at least every two hours.. carrots, apples, fibre bar whatever . drink lots of water (this is the nectar of life, it has been neglected for years but science is realizing its really important to keep cells in your body working properly). There is also another thing you can do drink an ounce of apple-cider vinegar every morning .. it cleans the arteries . and get a multi-vitamin that contains B50 and niacin . these also help keep the arteries clean and feed the heart which is what we worry about with high cholesterol. I know this is long but I just wanted to help I dont promote taking any pills for quick fix because its not good for your body to take pills.. then you have to take other pills to offset side effects and the next thing you know you have 20 pills to take every day.. the body isnt designed to filter pills .. which is why I believe people are sick in this day and age.Good Luck
