Hi there,
I might give the green tea a try. I never could get the hang of tea or coffee cuz of the bitterness of it.
My husband takes the Omega-3 and another cholesterol med...Vytorin. He was on 3 meds for his cholesterol and could never get below 300 on them. I get such side effects from some of the choles meds my doc wanted to put me on 2 but I refused. Thats when he mentioned red yeast right which is an herb. So I started both me and my husband on the red yeast rice. After 2 bottles (2 caps a day) my husband's choles was down to 167 on his last check :) And I am down as well. I think some docs have a hard time accepting herbs over meds. There are no side effects from herbs but meds? lots of side-effects.
Well my bills are calling me so better get with them lol. Take care and talk to you laterz :)
