@meginer I have noticed improvement, I had it in 220 and it has dropped to 180, this the total.I have the triglycerides in 40 and the exact figures of the "good" and "bad" cholesterol do not remember them.
The endocrine has told me that for the moment, well, but that Victoria does not sing.In October they repeat analytics and told me that I was going to ask for a more complete lipid profile.
By then I hope to have lost weight since I was a mother two and a half years ago and I have gained a lot from what I hope that red rice yeast along with the sport that I have incorporated again into my routine, keep going down cholesterol.
All the best.

I also have something in cholesterol, in total, but the others well.The low triglycerides, but has begun to climb the last 2 years, before I had it low.It must be age and premenopsus.
Endocrine does not give importance.

Red rice yeast has the same chemical formula as logas.
The origin is the same, it is still another statin.But with the danger of not knowing that you are taking exactly.It is assumed that for this reason the supplements bring very little and do not have much effect.
I have looked at them in the lidl and the amount of k monacolin K (which is what lowers cholesterol) was very low, it is supposed to be useful from 10mg.
What I don't know is whether the rest of the components help in some way to lower the LDL.
I would like to rest from the statins, but as soon as I leave them after two months I am with a LDL of 124. It is not much, but my endocrine is super strict and I think he is right.But the damage to the brain by the statins in the long ... I do not know

@nigiri, encourage that path you have started!It is great to see that you no longer improve with red rice yeast and exercise.Each small advance adds, and even more if you are just taking up habits after motherhood, which is not easy.Let's see if in October these results continue to improve, you will tell us 😊
@Ruthbia, the age and premenopause plays bad passes ... but it is true that sometimes doctors do not give it so much importance if the rest of the lipid profile is fine.Even so, it is good to have it controlled.
@Juansolo, totally true what you say about the monacoline K. Red rice yeast is an alternative, but you have to be very careful, especially if taken without medical control.In the end, even if the dose is low, it is still a statin, and in some people it can generate equal side effects.And yes, the balance between efficacy and possible long -term damage is delicate ... Each body is a world.

Well, thank God, total cholesterol is no longer so important but the combination of LDL, HDL and triglycerides.There were a few years to have more than 180 was a diet and pill for life.

I also have it a little high and I had heard of that supplement ... if it works, (even if you have less dose than cholesterol) and it has less side effects ... I would give it a chance ...
Thank you very much for the comments, it is very cool and see your opinions 🤗
I had never been in a forum before and I illust me the interaction hahaha ❤️
