I know a lot of you are young people and don't have issues with high cholesterol. I do and have for some years, but have refused so far to take the prescription meds for it. While my total number is high, my good cholesterol is very high and I am hoping that compensates for the bad. Anyway, I had to make a little office visit last Tues. and my dr. said it was time for a recheck on it. Then she said by the way, they have just come out with a study that says 67 grams of almonds a day, which is about eight, does the same thing a pill would do for you. I bought myself some, the unsalted kind, and am going to give it a try. Maybe someone else can profit by this tip too. A while back I bought some over the counter stuff from Wal Mart that is called Cholest Off. Has anyone here ever taken that for their high cholesterol. Just wondering. I bought it but haven't tried it yet.
