Choleast-900
Over time Choleast-900 by Thorne Research has lowered my cholesterol based on lab tests.
Pros
-
It is a naturally based statin rather than chemical Rx statin and I have not experienced any side effects.
Cons
-
The new Choleast 900 has more red yeast rice per capsule but they left out the important CoQ 10 you need to take with statins of any kind.
√ I would recommend this item to a friend.

Choleast-900
Choleast-900 by Thorne Research is an excellent product. It was recommended by a Natureopathic doctor and has lowered my cholesterol to normal range along with diet and exercise. It acts like a statin without side effects. Must take Co-enzyme Q10 also since it doesnt include it.
Pros
-
It works to lower cholesterol.
Cons
√ I would recommend this item to a friend.

It is the best!
I have been using Choleast-900 by Thorne Research for quite some time now. It is the answer to a safe method of bringing down my high cholesterol. Although I watch what I eat and exercise regularly I suffer from inherited high cholesterol levels. I refuse to take prescribed drugs that can adversely affect my liver. This product is my answer. Thank you for such a great product!

no longer on statins
I was diagnosed with high cholesterol and put on Lipitor for about 2 years. I started going to a Naturopath and she suggested Choleast-900 and Niacin in place of the Lipitor as she had had great success lowering numbers using these products. I have been using Choleast-900 for about 4 years now and my numbers are perfect...no more high cholesterol...and best of all off statins.
Pros
-
Seems to do the job and has absolutely no side effects.
Cons
-
A little expensive..
√ I would recommend this item to a friend.
