I am a 48 yer old female. Eat organic food, no red meat, only chicken, turkey and fish. I take an omega supplement twice daily, do not smoke or drink. And walk on the treadmill three times a week.
My cholestrol numbers are high 288. My good is 80 the bad is 208. I cannot seem to tolerate statins, My cardiologists has ordered a calcium scoring to see if there is any plaque build up and given me a prescription for a niacin med 500 mg daily. Is there any hope for me to lower this ?
